Just upgrade Smith to find out what he can offer in afl level. We already give croz chances , give Smith a few game in afl to decide end of the season whether to keep him or let him go.effort wise can't see Smith do worse than Clarke.
I would upgrade Mora. We got nothing to lose anyway
 
Mundy to a back flank. Drop Ibbo and leave him in the WAFL for a few weeks. Just shithouse. Leave Pav at home to rest.

In: Grey Smith
Out: Pav Ibbo

Actually I thought Ibbo was ok, not great but on track to get back to form. We don't actually have too many options to replace him...

Agreed. Dawson pinch hitting in the ruck is removing our key defender and sending Griff ( mighty effort last night ) back.

Smith can pinch hit in the ruck and will crash the packs and that is the way you play those dirty bastards. You hurt them.

As a result.

In - Smith, Grey, De Boer
Out - Pav ( nothing to be gained from this trip ) , Sherridan, Crozier.
 
Out Suban, Pav (rested)

In Grey, Smith

I would also like to see de Boer get a go at some point as an inside mid or run with. He is an intelligent man who plays within his limitations, generally. Although he will probably always be marginal, I think he deserves the opportunity to make a go of it as something other than a defensive forward.

Well said , deboer for suban. Suban lack a bit of decipline . Do a few bad thing in the start . score a goal , a few good tackle then disappeared again. E- shed mention Barlow regarding playing within limitation , but suban got none after he score the goal.

Shiel got 25 but didn't really punish us, and I'd say most were in the last half, particularly last quarter when Suban was on the pine a lot as we chased the win. thought Suban was good last night.
He was only on the ground 68%

Then blame whoever played on Palmer, not Suban ;)
I though Suban was okay last night...negated a lot of Shiel's influence.
Yah forget , any Eastern state club end of the season suban is not available for any trade .
 
I thought it was arguably our best effort for the year but we need to keep exposing more young guys.

Out: Sutcliffe, Sheridan, Pav (rested),

Ins: Grey, Langdon, Smith

We'll get that regardless.
Maybe just a quiet protest regarding imbalance draft the last 5 years by playing young and rookie player .
 
Look, Suban wasn't terrible and you can't just play a kid if he doesn't deserve it.
Just hope they're ready to drop him when the kids are playing well and deserve it because there is no way Suban should be playing week in, week out.
The blocking or whatever you call it to justify his selection just isn't enough, needs to have more impact especially after the amount of games he's played.
Don't even mind him as a rotation/depth player, but no chance he is and will ever be "best 22" from now on.

Probably gotta give him more than a week to see what he can offer, yeah he wasn't terrible last night but he'll need to do more to warrant his selection over a kid, or even the likes of De Boer/Pearce to justify his selection.
