And the worst I’ve heard is the Lions always intended to trade him to the Pies but waited until the last minute to screw the most out of us. Well played Lions.

Yep. Mid-sized defender that plays a bit taller given he is a good mark.
And only a game and a bit out of the top 4. I’m a glass half empty kind of guy.
Don’t like Broomhead as a second ruck?

He had a shot once. It almost went through for a point but WHE marked it and made it look good

Could we play Cameron and Cox in the same team?
Cox can play close to goal with Stephenson and Varcoe at his feet.
Cameron up the ground where he seems to take more marks.

Have you just unearthed our FF and CHF structure?
I was giving this some thought and the only concern is Cameron would be too gassed running around at CHF to then relieve Grundy in the ruck.
However, Cameron could also ruck the forward 75m of the ground while holding down CHF and leave Grundy a kick behind the play. Grundy would ruck the whole game but cover far less ground.

Not for me. It has to be Reid and one of Cameron or Cox IMO.
This could still work.
If there was no risk of injury, Reid would be ideal at CHF but I wouldn’t like Reid covering huge distances playing that position. We could play him out of the square and still have Cameron at CHF. Perhaps they could switch for a few minutes occasionally. Cox however could not hold down CHF.
To protect Reid:
Reid at FF, Cameron at CHF.
If Reid is managed or injured:
Cox comes in at FF, Cameron at CHF.

I do think Reid & Cameron could work well. Also gives us a backup if Reid gets injured mid game.
He's HBF come mid. Been doing some stints onball in praccy stuff iirc reading.
No way hes playing long term KPD role at AFL vs 196cm to 203cm fwds.
His leap is normal not freakish like Howe.

Love the positivity. But I wish it seemed more like a fight rather than a limping withdrawal to the scratch matches

I’m think Thomas is more of a victim of out ball movement then anything and I’m not convinced a replacement could do better. I’d rather keep him in the side and fix our structures than drop him for someone else who likely won’t perform either.

That was better than Peter Yagmoor’s effort!

Cameron is the most athletic out of all of them, so for mine it’s Cameron and one of Cox/Reid

And we still have Cox who can ruck in that hypothetical scenario.

Our small forwards don’t apply enough pressure.No point playing them and hoping they apply pressure.
Tackles I50 per game:
WHE - 1
JT - 1
Brown - .5
Atu - 1
Stephenson - 1
Our forwards don’t tackle.

It would make it easier to our small to get to the fall of the ball and lock it up though.

Would love to see these possible changes:
1. Out Madgen, In Roughead.
Although Madgen may be better than Keane, I'd love to see Keane not playing on a teams best goal kicking tall forward. Keane also took half of the game to get to start getting some touches of the ball. May feel more comfortable this week.
2. Out Thomas, In Broomhead or Appleby
Thomas hasnt been as good since a couple of years ago. I feel if Broomhead doesnt get any games this year, he wont remain on our list much longer.
3. Out Mayne (if he needs a rest), In Wills.
Mayne had minimal impact last week, but if fit should play. Would love to have both Sier and Wills in the team. Would make sense to use one of them in a 'Degoey' forward line role.
Other possible changes i'd like:
Would love to see Scharenberg back in the side as i still see him in our back 6 defenders at the current moment. Although Varcoe is needed in our team atm i feel he isn't consistent enough to be playing when we have a full squad.
Thoughts?
