Prediction Changes v Carlton Round 8

[Wizard17]

There must be a big doubt over Tim playing.

Outs Scott, Schache
Ins Young, VDM if Tim fit ins Tim and VDM

Wallis medical sub

Ignoring the last several posts about Khamis debuting are we

 

[Dog 36]

Listening to Bev I get the feeling that Schache will play if English misses.

Yikes... does Cordy still play then with Buku in?

 

[doggie dog]

So if Buku is in you'd say either Cordy has been punted again or Woody is being rested/unavailable.

Going for Cordy, man did he get beat by Lynch

If Cordy goes out Young?

Buku for JJ? (he has been out of sorts for a while now and effort has become an issue)

JJ has been playing as a high half forward. Surely that's not where Buku goes.

I can see us going smaller and dropping Cordy / playing Buku and Wood as the second and third talls.

Im told

Schache, Martin out

Buku, sweet in

Surprised sweet going to ruck on his own

Left field prediction: If Tim misses, Cordy replaces Schache up forward, Buku replaces Cordy in defence.

I don't mind it. Just please no Cordy in defence

 

[Wizard17]

Me thinks that if we are announcing a debutant on Thursday for a Sunday game their might be another for Friday and we are spacing them out.

Don't be surprised if Riley Garcia debuts too.

We don't have too many potential debutants left after this week. I think jsut Garcia, JUH, and Bedendo.

Id be stoked with that!

Or there's a surprise return to naming all teams on Thursday night this week. Wouldn't rule it out.

 

[Scott Tracy]

Great to see Buku in.
I wouldn't be surprised if at the end of the season everyone on our list has had at least one senior game.

Doubt it with what is happening in NSW right now

 

[bobs head soup]

Aside from being a great story, reckon Khamis can add a bit. Has the athleticism and disposal to fit in perfectly with our backline system. Super excited to see how he goes.

 

[NBates]

Absolutely rapt for Buku!!!!

 

[Golden_6]

Not a bad week for Buku to debut. Keath will take McKay which leaves Casboult. Casboult has done bugger all this year so we'll obviously go with someone like Wood on him and use Buku & others to mitigate anything in the air.

Assuming Cordy is getting dropped, we might be one step closer to seeing the backline that Bev has dreamt of with no geneuine 2nd KPD. Keath surrounded by the athletic mediums in Wood, Crozier, Khamis & Williams.

Happy for Buku I think hes perfect for the modern game and fills a big gap if he improves in our side

Excluding Will Hayes

 

[glenashley]

Well Cordy is our premiership CHF after all...

[Dogsman16]

Listening to Bev I get the feeling that Schache will play if English misses.

Would be a major mistake if this happens. The major danger being that he has a good game against a backline that leaks goals, thus giving him more games when we know he doesn't perform in a finals like atmosphere.

Also cannot pick the one ruck option again. Time and time again it has failed us.

I’m all for it, is Cordy really locking down a tall and winning enough contests to justify playing over a medium with speed, intercept marking, good disposal and rebound etc. is Buku gonna get beaten if he gets isolated one out against Casboult for example, yes but so would Cordy. Or any other option we have for the number 2 KPD role really.

 

[Martyn_30_]

You could easily drop Schack, West, JJ, Cordy and Scott but will they go for big changes three weeks in a row?

With English back it makes no sense to bring in Ugle Hagen this week.

A Khamis type of third tall would certainly be handy in the air right now, but I can’t see how he fits in without moving someone else out of position.

Hopefully Khamis is playing the third tall role, which is the long term setup the back line needs.
