Didnt Hayes play as a forward in his junior years? That's where he should be played on debut.
Out: Marshall Woodcock
In: Hayes Boak

Marshall was woeful last night, with dropped marks in the first qtr really denting team confidence. So even if Hayes did nothing, we would be no worse off. And have an additional ruckman if necessary.

Dixon to survive
Hartlett to survive....mysteriously
Georgiades...to survive on potential

Reticent to make more than 2 changes, but so help me, if Houston is playing injured I will spit my dummy.

Hard with not knowing who is available.

however I feel
Mayes, Hartlett, Woodcock should be out. As we are backing up against an “easier”
Opponent at home I’d give Fredrick another game, however he shouldn’t have played against Brisbane he’s just too raw, Bulldogs he needs to miss.

we really missed our outs last night
Butters, Duursma, Boak, Bonner all need to be back soon.

yes Marshall and Dixon could be sent a message but it won’t happen, so we may as well stop thinking about it.

however they better be stronger to the contest next week
 
Hayes. Change the structure a little DBJ out.
Hayes really gets the chance to make a statement in the sanfl today. In 2 games Frederick looks better than DBJ and could very easily take DBJs spot.

id disagree with that. No way is he ready

Woodcock needs to go in my opinion. He has kicked 4 goals in his 7 games. As a small forward that's not good enough. I know he's young and hasn't played many games, but I get the feeling he is one of those players who is good at SANFL level but can't make it at AFL level. It's unfortunate that Dylan WIlliams hasn't progressed more, and this is probably the reason Woodcock is getting his current opportunity.

Williams played well today

That Trent McKenzie goes alright at SANFL level, shame he's not on our AFL list.

Why Clurey is ahead of him in the pecking order i have no idea.

As for the rest of the muppets last night - I think Burton likely missing gives Hartlett a reprieve. Hoping Lienert replaces Burton as a straight swap, could easily bring Bonner back onto the wing and push Bergman back to defence to replace Hartlett - wouldn't be against that at all.

Assuming Boak returns, would bring him in for Woodcock. Would like a runner as a sub, but clear that Mayes shouldn't be it. Every time he has come on as the sub he's looked completely out of his depth, as if the game is going too quick for him. He's clearly been unable to adjust to the pace of the game once everyone has already got themselves involved.
