Changes v Kangas Rd4

[The Gerbil King]

No change unless Sandi's eye doesnt come up.

I reckon SNOS and IBBO should have a week in the magoos. Give MJ one last chance.

If Sandi is out his replacement is a toughie. Griffen or Zac.

I would go Zac myself..good form at present and would run out the whole game.

Outs: Sandi ( eye )
Ins: Zac

How's North's tall/ruck situation?

Crowley might be on thin ice, but I thought he did a decent job on Johncock.

Out: Crowley
In: Ibbo

Ibbo >>>> Crowley, notwithstanding Ibbo's lack of match practice.

 

[rgauci]

I think Crowley, Walters are on thin ice to keep their spots in the long term. Johnson proved his versatility to the team yesterday by rucking in Sandi's absence. I'm not convinced on Johnson just yet but he deserves his spot next week.

Their is no-one match fit to replace them at this stage. Crichton and Pearce are knocking on the door but i'm not sure they are particularly better. Ibbo and Silvagni to get a run in the 2nds. We'll need them fired up and ready for the Bulldogs in 2 weeks.

At our best:

IN: Barlow, Ibbo, Mora, Mzungu, Silvagni
OUT: ???

 

[E Shed]

Apparently Crowley was playing a forward tag on Johncock and got kudos from Pav after the game on Radio so I guess he's doing his job.
It's very hard to leave anyone out of a team that played like that.
Ibbo is certain to come in.
Anthony, Faulkes, Silvagni, Chrighton, Bolly, Pearce all have to fight their way in, Silv probably the closest to selection over perhaps Roberton but even that's not automatic for mine. Pearce seems to be doing best in the WAFL.

 

[Clay Davis]

Crowley also got that freak floaty goal down the non scoring end.

I thought Johnson was still ordinary but better, and if Sandilands is out, then he has to stay.

 

[dont bowl there]

Roberton doesn't have the endurance to run out a match so he is either the sub, gets subbed or gets dropped. For mine if he can't run the game out he is chopped.

Yep. Roberton was out on his feet in the 4th.

 

[Nickos66]

It would likely be due to match conditioning as his tank was massive - preseason when he was top 3 for the 3K. Just needs more on the job training.

 

[yakka man]

I noticed Roberton on his feet at the end of the game too. It's seeing as he is one of the fittest players at the club. Just shows that he is not match fit yet and is still lagging behind the rest of the players given his interrupted pre-season.

 

[Clay Davis]

Roberton has an odd running style that I would suggest at full pace wears him out quickly.

Endurance might be his thing, but not repeat sprints. Just a theory.

 

[Chris25]

I'd like for no changes. Walters had an impact when he came on, and Roberton played one of his best games. While Crowley had a great game on Johncock.

I can see them wanting to bring Ibbotson in, but he could probably use a week in the WAFL. Plus nobody really deserves to be dropped after yesterday's performance.

You could be onto something there, that said - we have a few players with odd running styles, Fyfe & Barlow are the obvious ones.

sometimes get Fyfe and Robbo mixed up when catching a really brief picture of them running or gathering the ball on TV.
