The point I was trying to make is that they wouldn't make the list of another AFL side..
Even as depth they don't cut the mustard.

A slight overreaction.

Every club has spuds that get a game each week. Even West Coast played Petruccelle and Jones, who are just awful footballers. You could argue any of the 6 you named are better footballers than either of those 2.
 
In
- Treacy (let’s not expect the world, but Tabs needs help - no brainer)
- Logue (get match fit in AFL, stuff the WAFL. Like Tabs, Cox needs the help)
- Fyfe (if healthy)
- Sturt (will be filthy if he’s not in)

out
- Young (inj)
- Shultz (concussion)
- Meek
- Henry

colyer and Acres on thin ice.
Giro too, offers very little most weeks, though was ok yesterday. Runs a lot for a winger who doesn’t get much of the ball. Poor user too.

Ryan Cox Conca
Wilson Logue Chapman
Cerra Fyfe Frederick
Walters Tabs Brayshaw
Switta Treacy sturt
Darcy Mundy Serong
Hughes aish & One of Colyer/Giro/Acres sub

Hawks tall forwards are battling at the moment & they’ve dropped Tim O’Brien. Perfect game to bring in Logue next week to take Ceglar & McEvoy with Cox to take Lewis. They have some dangerous mid & small forwards we must get the match ups right on.
Defensively they have Frost & Hardigan, so Treacy is a no brainer & will go alright against either of those. Sturt in will stretch their defence & if Fyfes in & goes forward from from time to time, they will battle to get a descent match up.

I think you’re close but the numbers don’t quite work as Henry was the sub. You also have two Brayshaw’s and Frederick is missing.

I’m not a massive fan of Giro but he mildly impressed me. Is building into it reasonably well for a bloke that has missed the best part of two years. Not surprised he has missed a few targets. Still a depth player for mine but shouldn’t get dropped after that game.

I’d move Acres to sub. He has been average. Hughes needs to pick up his game as does Conca and he can go to the bench. Henry needs a full game and goes to the WAFL.

Cerra Fyfe “Giro”
Walters Tabs Brayshaw
Switta Treacy sturt
Darcy Mundy Serong
“Hughes” Frederick Conca “Colyer”
Sub: “Acres”

The players with “” I’d like to see replaced over the coming weeks with others like Tucker, Crowden, Schultz. Young (to replace Hughes when fit) and a spot for Hamling when he is fit.

The likes of Colyer, Acres, Giro and Hughes from what I have seen are depth players. Crowden from what he showed late last year and this pre-season adds some genuine foot skills and tackling pressure. I like Tucker and we really need him to get over his injury issues.
 
Conca is the least of our problems.

I'd bring in Fyfe, Sturt and Treacy if all available. Henry takes Schultz's spot for mine.

Something is off with Logue, I doubt we will see him this week. If he is available drop Acres until he learns to attack the football - he improved dramatically after being dropped last year. I think Frederick has been too valuable as a forward over the last few games to take a wing spot, we'd be better off pushing Cerra to more wing time.

Meek, Schultz and Young out.
 
Fyfe, Sturt, Logue, Henry in.

Acres, Schultz, Young, Colyer out.

See how that goes. Fyfe plays his usual fwd/mid game, Sturt and Fyfe fwd helps Tabs, Colyer and Acres are no loss, Logue coming in releases Ryan to play more of his natural game which helps Conca and Wilson as Wilson will need to be used more in transition.

I think it’s too risky to drop a ruckman for a debutant 19yo forward, especially with Tabs the way he is.

I like this. I’d use Acres as the Sub.

Numbers work - 4 in 4 out, Henry being one of the outs. Sub should go to Acres or Colyer to give them a little rocket about next out.

yeah had Brayshaw twice, moved him and Freddy then forgot to put Freddys name in haha. Oops

I’d do something like this this week

Ryan Logue Hughes
Aish Cox Chapman
Giro Fyfe Freddy
Walters Treacy Switta
Sturt Taberner Henry

Darcy Serong Brayshaw

Cerra Mundy Conca Wilson

Conca rotates midfield
Meek gets the sarse as does Acres
Young and Schultz out injured

That's pretty much it, as good as it's going to get.
Betcha that's not how the club sees it.
