Realistically, would Ah Chee actually have the tank to replace Masten?

I know Masten annoys the heck out of all of us, and I know most of us would love to see him dropped, but until Wille Rioli is back in the picture I am resigned to seeing him remain in the team.

From what I have seen of Ah Chee, he strikes me more of an inside mid/half forward. And as much as I would love to see him replace Masten, I just can't for the life of me see him running out an entire game on the wing and clocking up enough kilometers to fill the role adequately as a link man. Does the WAFL have any GPS data on how much territory Ah Chee covers per game? Would make for an interesting read.

Ah Chee has been played in the midfield so maybe Hutchy can do Masto role as I’m not sure who he Tags .

Is Masto is out and Ah Chee in then it would be nice to see Gaff play Masto's role, Sheed play Gaffs current role (his role during Gaff suspension) and then Ah Chee play Sheeds current role.

That probably plays to every players strength.

Put Redden on the other wing with Gaff and Sheed stays in the guts with Ah Chee on a flank who can pinch hit in the guts. That is better balance

I love how Archie wasn't in any discussions until he took mark of the year in the 2's last weekend.

Masten will be playing, if he isn't, then Smith will be in. No way any of the inside mid's will be shifted to a wing. You need to be able to run very far, very quickly, for 120 minutes.

Also our best on ground with 32 touches, but yeah he hadn’t been in great form leading up to that game.

You are weeks behind. Masten is no longer a winger link man. He's a defensive winger aka loose defensive sweeper a kick behind play filling space.

This has been explained to us mere mortals in great detail.

So back to Ah chee. Can he play as a sweeper loose defender?

I know you are being tongue in cheek, but his role has definitely changed. What hasn't is the amount of running required.

So Gaff plays his most effective game last week on a wing after stinking it up efficency wise playing inside........and now we put him back in the guts?

How about leaving Gaff on a wing where he plays AA quality football.

I worded that wrong. I meant Redden and Gaff on a wing with Sheed in the middle.
