What's the story with Brown? I didn't see him go off.

What I'd do assuming Brown is free to play:-

Out - Walker, Mackay
In - Johnston, Lyons

Otten to play CHF looked a natural up there, he even kicks like Tippett so that's a thing, Lynch to play 3rd tall in defence, and Johnston to play deep forward.

Mackay goes out just because I'm sick of him being average and anonymous. Reilly fast running out of chances skills, decision making and composure under pressure are disgraceful. Jaensch to stay forward.
 
It will be hilarious to see him not get selected this week.

Start the way we did again next week, it will be even worse.

What I want:

In: Johnston, Lyons, Grigg, Graham*
Out: Walker (inj.)**, Mackay, Reilly, Jacobs

* = never thought I would ever say it but I think it needs to happen. Jacobs is a lost cause right now
** = not what I want obviously but he's a definite out

Also move Pets to defence for his last chance. If he spuds it up again, he can then **** off.
 
Out: DMack and Tex :( :( :( is there one for tears. Petrenko unless he changes position. Cheating umpires
In: LJ if not now when? Lyons, Stiffy and biased home town umps.
 
Assuming Brown is okay:

Out: Mackay, Reilly, Vince, Walker, Jacobs
In: Lyons, Grigg, Riley, Johnston, Graham

Not all of these will happen, but hopefully over half of them do.
And what changes do you make the following week when we lose by 150 due to a complete lack of experience and talent?

Meh. At least we'll be getting games into younger players. Would rather lose by 150 and plan for the future than lose by 120 and play for now

Which players in my "outs" do you think deserve to keep their spots?

(Also I said that not all of these will happen.)
 
First time poster.

No way Pets should play next week. Had about 5 possessions and got brushed off tackles too easily. Mackay also gets dropped. He looked unfit for a running player, struggles to stick tackles and too often second to the ball. Kerridge goes also. Tough call on this one as he's only had two games but didn't see him at all tonight. Tex goes due to injury. Ins are LJ, Lyons, Riley, porps ( who brings some experience to our fwd line despite lack of form).

Jacobs is a problem. Something wrong there. He can't get off the ground and when he does his timing is terrible. Tough to win clearances when opposition getting first use of the ball 80% of the time.
 
We lost this game first and foremost in the middle, so what can we do to fix that? Can we afford to persevere with Jacobs in his current form?

LJ for Tex is obvious. The biggest problem I have is that I can't see any players outside the team who would make it stronger.

We saw the downside of youth tonight, with our young small defenders being carved up by Carlton's small forwards. Kerridge was given a masterclass by Judd. The absence of VB really hurt us.

Lyons continues to demand selection, but who drops out and why? I see his selection as reward for good form, but not materially improving the team.
