Prediction Changes Round 4 v 2016 GF Losers

[Doggy]

Could be no changes but Engliah may need some support against their ruck brigade.

Lippy was solid for Footscray as well

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Probably no change after that performance. I was wary about the team selection against Essendon but they proved me wrong.

Lipinski would be the best chance of coming in, probably would have to be for Jong. I thought Jong was good as a marking half forward though and I’d give him another chance.

They go with Sinclair and Towers in the ruck so a second ruckman to help English is probably not a huge preference this week.

 

[Mattdougie]

Unchanged unless someone is injured

Some players didn’t do a lot but deserve another crack due to full team performance.

 

[the dog's kennel]

I'd love to see Lipinski get his chance. But I honestly don't care about selection. I just want them to bring the heat for 4 qtrs again.

 

[immortalmike]

What I'd like to see:
Out: Jong, Redpath.
In: Lipinski, Boyd.

What will happen;
No change.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

I reckon we'll go in unchanged or we'll find someone to make room for Boyd.

Every chance there's an injury to someone that we don't know about.

Boyd? Doesn't sound like he did much in the VFL again, would be massively surprised if he magically gets considered after a win. Shouldn't Roughead be right after his week off? Room will be made for him before Boyd if it's possible.

 

[adam10]

Most likely no change unless injury. Nobody deserves to get dropped.

If Roughead is fit does Bev make room for him? MAYBE Jong if it had to be someone.

Lipinski close, cross our fingers and pray Boyd improves in the VFL.

 

[FoochPackage]

No need for roughead to come in. Lipinski for jong.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Huh? Sydney’s rucks are depleted. Sinclair played a ripper on the weekend but I don’t think he’s ever played two good games in a row.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Like others I’d do Lip for Jong, but that won’t happen.

 

[maddog37]

Jong is hard at it which you need against Sydney or they roll right over you.

 

[ScragCity]

Rough should be ready to come back this week so I'd say:

Out: Jong
In: Roughead

Dont see how people could call for Boyd to come in after another stinker in the VFL

 

[Golden_6]

No change. Nothing wrong with Lipinski earning a call up with a string of good performances.

 

[Struggle]

Out Jong
IN lipinski

 

[Doggies7]

Hopefully Roughy comes in if he's ready. I don't think we will lose much mobility or run with him in, gets around the ground well and can help out back or fwd if required. At one stage yesterday I thought Naughton did his hammy and knowing that would have left just Zaine and then Wood as the tall defenders was scary.

I love Jong but Roughy for Jong would be a good change IMO, I expect no change though if everyone is fit and that's fine, they earned it.

 

[Yojimbo]

They will have to monitor the two first year players Naughton and Richards as well as
keep an eye on Tim English, they are still too raw to play every game yet even run
out a full game. Naughton should rotate with Young and Richards should rotate with
Lynch or R.Smith. I want to see more players exposed to the top level even if it
does cost us a few games. As Aretha Franklin (no relation to Lance) said you better
think, THINK.

 

[Tommycash]

Would be happy to go in unchanged but one would assume we will see Roughy return. Personally I worry if that makes us lose some of the legs that helped us this week. We will see.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

No Rough this week for mine. Settle this structure until it stops working. We were still beaten in the middle in patches against a team that is weak in that area - it's not time yet to add another tall to the mix at the expense of another runner/mid rotation.

Either Jong goes out for Lipinski or no change, in my opinion.

 

[ringa5]

Hope teams keep being picked on tactics.
Example Honey tagging role.As really has no awareness.Maybe will come like Sucklings lately.
Jong also needs more awareness.but takes marks and gives size structure..Tick for me.
I personally hate hate hate having Bont in the ruck.
Let Boyd be the battering ram.His time is now.
In Boyd (Lipinski hopefully soon)
Out Honey

Honeychurch was one of the best on the field to be honest. can't drop that

 

[Lex22]

If Roughead is right then he comes in for Jong (I’d prefer Boyd but that’s not going to happen). I don’t really see what Jong offers at all right now and he’s just too big a liability with ball in hand.

A guy that can share the ruck duties and not cook English, bob up and take a mark here and there at either end of the ground whilst allowing us to not put Bont in the ruck looks far valuable than what Jong is doing.

 

[mambavino]

Like others, I think Jong out for Lipinski should be the only change considered. But I'm happy to give Jong another week.

After seeing Boyd play in the VFL on the weekend, I really can't see how he could be seriously considered unless we are super desperate to get another tall in. He needs to show a bit more than he has at the lower level, and I desperately hope he does soon.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

It's absolutely amazing year after year that Jong is the whipping boy.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

It's absolutely amazing year after year that Jong is the whipping boy.

I think it's amazing year after year that any suggestion to drop Jong or any commentary over a poor game is met with responses like these.
