[Scham]

Sydney by 9.

Can’t understand why one of the 8000 smalls that did sweet **** all weren’t dropped?

 

[dont bowl there]

Treacy is on a hiding to nothing though coming back in the wet.
I also thought Duman would stay in for the weather, seems to have flippers when playing in the wet previously.
Oh well, just get a win boys

Hopefully Treacy is in for the next month regardless.

Can’t understand why one of the 8000 smalls that did sweet fu** all weren’t dropped?

Jay Lo would lose his Snow White nickname

 

[Joao]

Surely Duman is a better defender than Tucker?

 

[kingswood71]

Happy to see Luke and Treacy back.
Crowden stays ....I hope he plays a blinder!!

Surely Duman is a better defender than Tucker?

Not really sure what’s going on with Tucker. I thought he was just playing back to get some match fitness etc but the comments from JLo today seem to suggest he will be permanently back...odd.

 

[FreoRicci]

Schulz and Crowden still in. 6 small forwards. They’re not small actuality, they’re dwarves.
Far out.

Love to be Crowden. Holy moly JLo is passive. Don’t care if it’s western, surely there’s changes to be made after 3 weeks.

Who comes in though? We have zero medium forwards to pick.

 

[Big Animal]

Freo forward line soon to be Tabs and the 7 dwarves

 

[Scham]

I expect that he’s being used there for his kicking prowess, which in my mind is actually a bit overrated, but it’s clearly better than Dumans.

 

[FreoRicci]

Western. Change rotations. Blakely in for Schulz. Another defensive mid. Tucker to the wing. There’s plenty changes to make.
Conca is making Papley his puppy. Who plays on him?
Jlo really playing it fine here. He wants to be a risky coach or a safe one?

 

[Scham]

Play Duman, use either him or Watson up forward?

Play Blakely, use Fyfe more forward? Play Blakely forward?

 

[theGav56]

We aren't a good team though, hence the bad kicking.

We aren’t good at kicking though, hence we are a bad team.

Throw magnets around on the board. The same forward line more or less. Waiting for Crowden to suddenly kick 2-3 goals and Schulz somehow managing that as well. Uninspiring, non ruthless changes

 

[MadMundy]

I get people are annoyed all the smalls are in, but we have 3 talls now too. I feel that automatically balances it out does it not?

 

[theGav56]

If Walters does play more midfield it makes sense.

 

[dont bowl there]

Duman forward will save us! Seriously, if we had alternatives they would be in! I love Cox as a defender but maybe he can go forward if AP and Hamling ever play again.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

I would have liked to see Western come in.

Isnt Western smaller than any of the other small forwards???.....

 

[Square Peg]

I would have liked to see Western come in.

Not even an emergency is strange

 

[wakojako]

Isnt Western smaller than any of the other small forwards???.....

He's also faster than all of them and has a higher ceiling. Seriously he is a big part of the future of our forward line and yet we continue to not develop him.

 

[stax on the mull]

I thought Duman was pretty good last week. He was on top of the list for stats for intercepts and contested possessions for our defenders and his disposal efficiency % was mid 80's.

A couple of times he overlapped through the centre and hit targets going forward, but short kicks.

Only surmising with Longmuir saying after the game that there were times where players kicking could have penetrated deeper into forward 50m and but went short (and vice versa), that decision making with the ball is where he might have lost his spot.

Obviously Ryan has to come in for someone and Watson probably had his best game for Fremantle last week.

 

[nurries]

Fyfe surely stays mid with Andy out
