Preview Changes: R11 vs Collingwood

[Cap]

I would be disappointed if either of those two were dropped.

far from our worst.

 

[Cap]

If you look at Collingwood's forward line it's the perfect game to give Talia a rest

I'd rather send McAsey back and bring in a smaller forward that Hartigan.

 

[1970crow]

Butt.. why.

Did you not notice that Hartigan was "managed" last week. Was always returning with another key position being rested. Probably see McAsey rested next and then after that might be the end of Harto without injuries. Definitely want to see Butts though. Butt he seems 2 spots behind what's in the selected 22.

McAsey did play back against Melbourne

 

[DangerSloane]

As I watched Jones, he seemed to be chasing and reactive. Rarely saw him making his own metres. Not sure.

Our whole team are reactive.

I needed to take my socks off to count how many times we watched opponents in marking contests instead of the ball last match.

 

[Tex200]

The Drop tweeting that Jones will miss.

Thank goodness for that. Lad needs a rest and reset. Hopefully comes back better for it

 

[1970crow]

Not that surprised, it should be the only time he ever plays, but unfortunately I don’t think that will hold true beyond this week...

I think Fish will get a rest next week and then it's decision/melt time.

So I wonder who the other outs will be. Hopefully

Out: Talia, Jones, Kelly, Crocker, Hamill (concussion)
In: Hartigan, Smith, McPherson, McAdam, Stengle

 

[GetInMyVanBerlo]

Smith for Crocker
McAdam for Jones
Stengle for Murphy
McPherson for Hamill
Hartigan for Talia

Seems like a safe bet for this week, and then over the next two weeks

Sloane for Mackay
Milera for Kelly
Talia for Hartigan
And then I'm not sure who Brad, and Jones for that matter, comes in for, we won't leave out Matt, so Sholl and Schoenberg look the most likely knowing our club unfortunately.

You missed Murphy, I’m guessing Crocker will stay and Murphy goes out, struggle to see Kelly out unfortunately

Plenty of more experienced players to drop. Kelly, Mackay, Crocker, Murphy, Seedsman, Matt Crouch, Walker all in contention. Even Luke Brown's spot is in trouble. Throw in Himmelberg as well.

Ah so I did

Out: Talia, Jones, Kelly, Crocker, Murphy, Hamill (concussion)
In: Hartigan, Smith, McPherson, McAdam, Stengle, Davis

Really looking forward to having Milera (actual foot skills) and Sloane (someone who actually gives a dam!) back. While Sloane does have down games, he's the heart and soul of the team.

Can really seeing him fire up the team to end the year!

Well I already had the first four out, Seedsman has been in good form and the club won't drop him, I'd obviously prefer playing Lachie and Harry over him but I can't see the club actually doing that, Walker could happen after the Geelong game, Brown out probably means Smith/Sholl play a lot more at half back

Himmelberg? - not sure if serious?

This is how I'd like to see us:

B McPherson - Talia - Doedee
HB Hamill - Butts? - Milera
C Smith - Jones - Sholl
HF McHenry - Fogarty - Lynch
F Stengle - McAsey - McAdam
R O'Brien - B. Crouch - Keays

I Sloane - Schoenberg - Laird - Brown

Sloane rotating wing/forward, Schoenberg in the guts, Laird outside mid and Brown in defence

 

[Scorpus]

Himmelberg? - not sure if serious?

Not sold on him at all. Needs to put in consistent strong performances

Monday Night Selection Melts

The days of the week already don't feel like they mean anything anymore as it is, so may as well throw this up too

Would not complain at all

Yeah but you don't drop a guy immediately after he actually performs well. Last week he was in career best form in terms of providing a contest.

Yes but this was talking about the coming weeks with Sloane, Brad Crouch, Hamill, Jones and Milera all set to return at some point

 

[Tex200]

Ok so let me see if we have this straight:

Jones - 18 games. Hey he’s just a kid we have to be patient and get games into him.

Himmelberg - 12 games. Drop him, needs consistent strong performances.

In the last 3 weeks EH has played far better than Jones in a much tougher position.

Last week he’s in the best players, ranked 5th statistically of all players. Game before he was 8th. And you want him dropped?

I didn't say I wanted him dropped this week. It was a discussion about the next few weeks of changes. I said I would consider his position in danger over the next few weeks as we get players back.

Himmelberg has played one acceptable game out of 4 attempts this year and will be under the pump to keep his spot with our young KPP stocks

Even so, his last 3 weeks has absolutely earned him another block of 4.
