Prediction Changes v Dogs

[avishka5]

Out:Hutchings/redden
IN: Duggan

 

[eaglespremiers]

No point having two rucks who have no impact.
McInnes has possibly earned a call up.

 

[avishka5]

whats the dogs ruck situation like?

Could drop giles and bring fmac to help chop out vardy. It also strengthens our forward line.

This

 

[Biggie]

Out GILES

In: Put a cardboard cut out of this man in - it'll scare the bejesus out of the opposition.

 

[ioppolo]

Duggan & McInness in for Hutchings & Giles.

 

[WCE_Phill]

Can we play with 1 Rickman in Vardy?

Big liability with Giles and Vardy

 

[The Stid]

Out: Hutchings / Redden, Giles / Vardy
In: Duggan, Karpany or even Lamb

Feel like we would better off going with extra run. Mutimer showed he's good under pressure and has good hands give him Redden / Hutchings midfield minutes.

We could drop one of Vardy or Giles maybe. They're using Dunkley in there at times. He just got smashed in the centre bounce by who ever Richmond have rucking for them today, one of the Russians.

Edit: They're also using Jong.

 

[Marlin01]

Poor old Giles has to go. He was a liability today. I actually quite like him, but he's worse than playing one man down.

 

[Jeeves]

Giles out. We'll only need 1 ruckman against the doggies. The ruck stats atm are favouring Richmand 17 nil with 3 mins to go in the first.

 

[Matele]

OUT: Giles, Hutchings
IN: McInnes, Duggan

This for mine as well. Two bumbling ruckman is killing us a bit. Take the lesser of two evils.

 

[Shmiddy15]

Giles was horrific, wasn't even providing a contest. Happy to give Fraze a go instead.

Can toss a coin between redden and hutch, as I thought both were reasonable when the game was in the balance. Redden seems to do nothing at the start of matches but I feel like he's been important late in games a few times this year. Dugg back in.

 

[Ochre]

Bulldogs are currently using the 188cm Lin Jong as their second ruck, so tbh, we could probably play Hutch as the second ruck.

 

[Forward Press]

Need to drop Giles, bring in Duggan. Hutchings stays maybe, or perhaps Karpany gets a run.

Whatever it is, the Dogs don't play tall and we shouldn't either.

Ivan Solodo, cousin of Maric, winning the majority of hitouts in his debut.

I think it's time we bring McInnes in.

Ideally we'd drop Giles and have Vardy ruck alone but I don't have faith that Vards can handle a full match in the ruck.

I suppose we get Yeo/Darling/Gov to back him up?

Precisely, I think Vardy is getting there (towards running out a match as solo ruck) and as we saw today and in countless other matches in recent history winning the ruck duel doesn't win you the match always. Darling/Gov for the chop out. Shouldn't play two rucks just for the sake of it.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Out - Giles, Hutchings
In - McInnes, Duggan

Of course the Dogs could change up their ruck tactics for next week if they get pumped tonight.

 

[WCErevival]

McInnes can take on Boyd in the ruck. Out Giles
Hutchings out. Having him in destroys our balance. Too many inside mids. Duggan can come back.
