Have to agree here this guy needs to be farmed out imo. Ken needs to keep this side turning over and bringing in talent, its your job Ken you have to do something.

Agreed it is his last year - he doesn't have the pace for out game. After 300 games he should be a depth player only.

Ah Chee full game. He comes on and looks like he gives a damn. To many believing their own shit at the moment. Create some hunger by not gifting games.
 
Lets keep carrying people who cant kick like mitchell and kill our forward thrusts and dump young who was the only one in the middle at least trying to win the ball.

I'd say Cornes, White and Mitchell are all guilty of butchering possession into the forward 50. When you see Krak with the ball in his hands it seems like a different world.
 
Mitchells position seems to be to float across the wing half forward and he kills us with his ball use, its team deflating.
 
Going on Impey's game yesterday alone he must come in. He simply must play.

And I don't give a shit how "easy" Brisbane might be to beat on paper, I'm worried about this game. Time to start rolling up our sleeves and actually working again. The players need to get it in their heads that nothing in this game comes easy.
 
ken obviously has it out for young will be dropped or sub next game. Schulz ankle - rest him no point against Brisbane, though this makes things interesting who would come back in for him? Butcher? Spudded up this weeks game, Shaw? Hasn't been back for long hasn't built any form. Or my guess Harvey: good form, no endurance? who cares chuck him in the square and sub him off at 3/4 time. Redden well wouldn't think we would play 3 rucks Harvey is more mobile and better around the arc. Rest wines for another week ah chee full game. Jonas may have his spot up for grabs has had 2 consecutive crap weeks - he didn't have a touch in the first quarter. O'shea and stewart threatening

In: Harvey, Impey, Stewart/O'shea
Out: Schulz, Young/Mitchell, Jonas

also if anybody here even suggests monfries get ready for a blasting. Last quarter showed why we have him. No one else besides boak/wingard/gray would get up and kick the goal right after marking it like he did. No one else would throw and will himself into the contest in the centre of the ground and get smashed for it just to win possession for the team. Every other player would back out and wait for contact to tackle the opponent. We better win by 200 next week, yes 200.
But Monfries DOES'NT do enough in between the flashy bits , I for one question his continued automatic selection.
 
Ah Chee full game FOR THE LOVE OF A-CHEE-LLAH!

Three weeks in a row he's come on and had an impact, "looks like he gives a damn" as someone said above, Wines probably won't be ready next week, give him a full game.
 
Agreed, a hard week on the track to remind the blokes that 4 qtrs of footy is required to win a game. However I think we can forgive them, it's been a massive 5 weeks. Let's just get our destroy the lions by heaps next week.

Come September up against Rioli, Walters, Ballantyne etc, Impey will be one of our most important players. He simply comes in and stays in from now

Ah Chee has earned a full game and I was really disappointed today when I heard he was going to be sub again. If White is carrying an injury either rest him or make him sub.
 
Like the idea of bringing Impey in and getting Krak up the ground a bit, hell they could even rotate that between them.

I'd give Young 1 more chance to redeem himself and drop Mitchell, if Ollie is right to go someone comes out Ah Chee is likely but i enjoyed what he did when he came on tonight wanna see him play a full game.

White had was on the end of a lot of shocking delivery I counted about 7 times. Once he gets clean possession and bursts he's got real hurt but he is still only 183cms and if its a contested ball that needs to be won he doesn't always comes out on top because he is an outside player. It doesn't hurt that he was the only one capable of bursting which is where if amon was in or krakouer was further up the ground wouldof helped

only 2 needed for me.

Wines in (if fit) for Mitchell
Impey in for Ah Chee (would love to see more of Arch, but we need some of Jarman's pressure that he brings back.
 
Young would be lucky to keep his spot. Some of his efforts were a joke. I watched him just let his man run out of a Centre clearance with him barely giving a crap. No surprise he was subbed straight after. It was clearly a huge statement from Hinkley that he was not going to tolerate that crap.

I think Wines might come in next week for Ahchee who just doesn't look like an AFL player yet to me so I'm not sure what to do with him.

Lastly whilst Krak was great, his fitness seemed a little bit of an issue too. He looked shot in the 3rd quarter.
 
1 thing I feel is really hurting us is Westhoff.

The coming of Ryder was supposed to provide Westhoff with greater freedom and less attention, but Westhoff has NOT stood up. Westhoff is also seemingly limiting the run we had last year by just not adding to it.

The 2 tall forward line seemed to help our run as we had more mids/runners. However now with 3 talls we need Westy to stand up and provide run to fill that void and he has gone no where near doing that.

He needs a massive rocket IMO.
