Changes v Brisbane

[Crowbots are dead]

Changes:
Didn't watch game and have no intention after reading some of the comments but would prefer to state the changes we need as a club once all players are fit.
In: Gov, Cheney/Doedee, Knight, Seedsman, Greenwood, O'Brien
Out: Kelly, Mackay, Jenkins, B Crouch, Milera, Menzel, Otten.
Players we need to trade in:
Brody Grundy, Dustin Martin.

Players we must keep: Gov, Lever, Laird, Sloane, Talia. Rest would all be tradeable if the right deal was there.

Players would trade out asap regardless of contract:
Bcrouch, Jenkins, Mackay, Menzel.

What is most alarming about the ins there is how few our options for midfielders are. We really have a pretty bare cupboard in that area.we have done well in recruiting in all areas except the midfield imo

 

[Elite Crow]

I don't know if Cameron's injury can be fixed with rest but he's not up to it at the moment and needs a rest

 

[Murray2503]

Oh how I miss Malcolm Blight. Didn't give a xxxx about reputations. Bloody champ he was. Don't know if some our overrated players could handle Malcolm, I suspect not.
In : Malcolm.
Out: Campo

 

[Mego Red]

Time for the Gooch and Thor to get a run, Lever and Knight also MUST be back in.

Really miss Cheney in the back line too. - you know, someone that can actually lock down and defend.

Drop ANY of the following who spudded it up last night:

Hampton
Douglas
Mackay
Jenkins
Atkins
Brouch

Absolutely embarrassing and woeful effort. Cannot believe we didnt turn up and played a soft weak game like the crows of old.

Yeah, if there's not 3+ changes after the fortnight we've had, then you have to start questioning how serious we really are.

Hampton looked sloooooow last night

I thought he was meant to be quick?

I reckon most of them looked slow (in stark contrast to the first 6 weeks)

Didn't watch the game, but if he looked slooooow, I think there is a good chance of him being played sore. We have seen what happened to CC's pace when playing sore, Hampton would be very similar.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Give Greenwood a go

 

[Squiba]

Can we just drop some shit campaigners and debut some young campaigners? Like every other football club worth mentioning

 

[Scorpus]

Any coach that doesn't tag Sloane is a dead set moron.

He'll cop it all year.

 

[Elite Crow]

If we don't make some changes not based on injury we might as well give up.

Out: Jenkins, Menzel, Hampton, Mackay, Charlie (injured)

In: Hopefully Lever and Knight, Greenwood, Wigg and Beech

We can't keep going in with the same midfield now that it's been exposed.

Another 15 game effort from Hampton. Just not up to it.

Wigg knows how to win the ball, have to give him a crack.

Greenwood HAS to come in.

Our depth is pretty sick, a few injuries and we are in strife.

 

[Elite Crow]

Out Atkins look at me blonde hair
In Atkins natural colour and a dose of hardening up

Like to see this but more than likely

Out: Menzel
In: Knight

Constantly trying to do way too much when he gets the ball. Fails to take the correct option cause hes too busy dancing around trying to do the incredible when he wont do basic stuff first. He should be getting possies in the clear but the rest of our inside mids cant get near it and he gets sucked in. So much wrong with our midfield atm.

 

[whitey_1975]

Our problems stem 100% from our midfield as it stands. From the coach right thru. We must get a top line mid this trade period, or its gonna be a waste of the rest of our current squad talent like Sloane, Walker, Laird etc.

 

[Elite Crow]

Like to see this but more than likely

Out: Menzel
In: Knight

And if that's it, give up.

I said during the preseason we were no hope with our midfield. The first 6 weeks sucked me in but in just 2 games we've been exposed as soft pretenders.

Sucks to realise nothing really changed. Had me sucked in too.

 

[Elite Crow]

Last night was pathetic. Pykey must make changes.

In - Lever
Out- Jenkins
Jenkins was pathetic. Not fit and was soft as butter. Lever to back Otten back forward/ruck

In - Wigg
Out - Mackay
Mackay was invisible again. I dont know what photos he has of the coaches but they must be incriminating. Wigg cant do anymore and must be given a chance

In - Greenwood
Out - Hampton

In - Beech
Out - Menzel

F Beech Otten Betts
HF Greenwood Walker Milera
C Atkins Douglas Sloane
HB Smith Talia Lever
B Brown Hartigan Kelly
Ruck JAcobs M Crouch Laird
Inter B Crouch Wigg Lynch Cameron

Plus Cameron. He's not fit, we need to get him right.

 

[huludicidal]

A similar conclusion could be reached about the great B.Crouch.

Completely agree. B Crouch was absolute puke (for the 2nd week running). He did have a goal assist though (to Betts for our first goal of the game). Yayyy Brad. His footy IQ is disturbingly low. Has regressed sharply.

 

[Schulzycrow]

Lever (we missed you snake)
Greenwood
Beech
Deer
Galluchi or Polholke

Out
Any of the many soft male roosters that played last night
Menzel
Hampton
Mackay
JJ
CC
Lynch
Otto
Take your pick

 

[hey shorty]

Sanfl has the split round like the afl are about to have it was coincided

**** it does too.

Hmm it makes changes even more difficult

Not really. You drop the shit players and the guys you bring in will take care of themselves

 

[marty36]

Like to see this but more than likely

Out: Menzel
In: Knight

I would be disappointed. If knight gets in as he failed last time needs to show some form we have players with form in Greenwood Wigg and beech, Lever will come back in one game out shouldn't mean any games in the twos

You'd ideally want them in good nick.

That'll be the selectors excuse and it will break this board

Dear can't get a kick in the snaffle !!!

 

[whitey_1975]

please can we distiguish between menzel being soft and not getting enough of the ball. He is not soft.
