You know what to do....

Personally, I'd like to see McKenzie come in, maybe for Jetta. Dunn for Miller would be nice too.

Saw on mfc.com.au as well that Junior pulled up sore as did Jonesy, so they might miss...
 
In- Dunn, McKenzie, McDonald

Out- Miller, Bennell, Scully (maybe)
 
Controversial. Plz explain

Obviously Scully, although he seemed to be a fair bit more of a presence in the second half than the first, was very quiet for a lot of the day today, and I'm struggling to think of anyone else that leaps to mind who Joel McDonald could replace.

He could replace Jetta perhaps, but I'm not sure on that either - he laid 6 tackles, got a goal and was more consistently involved in the game than Scully today, I thought...

In that scenario, if those 2 ended up on the injury list, I'd keep Bennell and Jetta both in the team, and bring in McKenzie & Joel Mc for Junior & Jonah...
 
McKenzie definately in. I'm sure it's no coincidence that when he has been out of the team we have lacked something around the stoppages.

Jones has apparantly done his Hammy.

Out: Jones (inj), Miller
In: Mckenzie, Hughes/Maric/Wonna.

We need to be able to really apply the pressure to Collingwood coming out of defence, so a smaller, quicker forward would be a good idea, as long as the midfield can actually use the ball well going forward.
 
At one point midway through the 2nd term one of the commentators brought up the stat of tackles inside attacking 50... Carlton had 32 and you guys just the 4... this is Wonaemirri excells and he the reason why he shouldnt have been dropped.
 
Good point about Aussie there Banana, although I'm not sure if he's completely ready fitness-wise to be playing top-flight every week now or not.

Obviously we've got to be reasonably cautious to make sure he does stay injury-free this time as well.

Hopefully Merc or DR or someone else could tell us a bit more about how he went for Casey today, that'd be good to know...
 
Out: Miller, Jones, Warnock, Garland

In: Dunn, Frawley, MacDonald, McKenzie.

Done and done.
 
In: McKenzie Out: Jones (inj)
In: Dunn Out: Watts - Not ready yet
In: PJ Out: Miller - Give PJ one last chance, give Jamar a let up
In: Frawley! Out: One of Garland/Warnock/Rivers - Frawley has to come in
In: Maric Out: Bennell - This depends on how he went for Casey, but I think its time we give Maric a shot almost regardless, and let Bennell go find some footy. He hasn't touched it much in the last 2 weeks and I want him back and pushing for a spot on half back or the wing.

he wont be ready for next year either unless we give him the rest of the season to find his feet REGARDLESS OF PERFORMANCES

id like to see Mckenzie in for Jones (if injured) otherwise bring him in for garland
and dunn in for miller

and bring chip in
 
I wouldn't go overboard with changes.

Dunn needs to come in , his recent form & efforts for Casey surely demands that . Probably Miller to go out.

Maybe Bartram also out...but thats about it.

I would persist with Watts...we just need to get games under his belt and some hardness into his body.

Changes for next week also depend on collingwoods line up. If they go tall or small in their forward line will be the main talking point.

But, imo;

Jones, McDonald both out injured. This will hurt us massively.

So, Jordie is straight in and Dunn is also in. Dunn was unlucky to be dropped in the first place.

Our backline is to tall and I think Garland is due for a spell. Garland out Frawley in if he comes up. This does not address the issue of the talls though especially if collingwood go small.

So, Warnock out and Cheney or Macdonald in.

Jamar needs back-up. Johnson's last chance.

Outs; Jones, McDonald,Garland,Warnock,Miller

Ins; Jordie, Dunn, Frawley, Cheney/Macdonald,Johnson
 
Backs: Bartram, Frawley, Bruce
Half backs: Grimes, McNamara, McDonald
Centreline: Jetta, Trengove, Davey
Half forwards: Bail, Dunn, Scully
Forwards: Bennell, Green, Bate
Followers: Jamar, Moloney, Sylvia
I/C: Morton, Watts, Gysberts, Garland

Out: Jones (inj), Miller (shit), Rivers, Warnock

In: Bail, Dunn, McNamara, Frawley

- I'd like to give Tommy Mac a chance to show what he can do and I'm getting tired of the stupid aggression of Warnock that gives away frees trying to intimidate his opponent, beat him in the contest that will intimidate him not huffing and puffing with your chest out.

- If Jones has done his hammy then I'm backing the pace of Bail to see what he can do with stints on the ball.

- Miller completely banished from training, playing and even setting foot near the Melbourne Football Club, Dunn to come in and play forward.

- Rivers for Frawley, no explanation needed.

- If Junior doesn't get up for the game after these reports of soreness then I'd replace him with McKenzie.

- I would also seriously consider Watts out for Martin to play as a legit second ruckman not a forward pinch hitting in the ruck, this would allow Jamar to get a decent break and Dunn to stay up forward.
 
At this stage I'd have Dunn in for Miller and that is it. I would suggest others but no idea on the status of Frawley and Jones.
