Surely Zoo was the 3rd tall second half of last year. (larkey/teakle/zoo)
Now its (Larkey/Darling/zoo)
Yes Teakle a better ruck, but Darling better at everything else.
No it was larkey teakle and pink

Teakle would second ruck

Darling has replaced pink and teakle

And now we are one tall short which is what we were in the first half of last year when we were terrible

Teakle then came in and straightened us up

so WP still in
We really lost from just horrendous turnovers
We had the ball plenty enuf so doesn’t seem unreasonable selection approach

Pink vfl 3 times and subbed off once in that block of games. rd 14 to 24.
 
Third tall mate….

The structure we had second half of last year
Instead of playing one tall short now
Our midfield can’t kick a pass to 2 forwards at the moment. Why would you think they can kick to 3. Can see the ball get transitioned out by the opppsition easily.

Nah, we need tp stick a small/medium with creativity and speed that keeps ball in our forward line

Considering they like to bomb it in an extra tall helps contest it

And gives them more marking options to kick to

And ensures darling doesn’t burnout

Genuinely interested to know how you all know who’s in form and who’s not? Are you legit keeping close eyes on the vfl?
Im tuning in and out but I keep an eye on the vfl stats, I just think we need to give Hardeman another crack at it.
 
Bergman ahead of Hardeman?

I really rate Hardeman but I think he needs a few more games as he's had an interrupted pre-season.

Bergman has had a good preseason and is closer to a like-for-like replacement for Arch.

I'm guessing this was what was in the selector's minds.

Pink can go forward if needed and gives us flexibility in that area.
 
If we dont butcher the ball or turn over the pill hitting opposition on the chest to allow them to create fast run plays up the middle of the ground.. our defensive structure will look better.
Sadly, I can't genuinely remember a game where we didn't butcher the ball or hit immaculate passes to the opposition

Tucker will come in I reckon

Stephens to be sub
 
Bergman ahead of Hardeman?
Bergman is a good runner and neat by foot. I reckon there are some periods he’s been very good by foot.

He may be light enough and agile enough to cover Fritch (not completely but maybe well enough).

I could see Bergman and Hardeman both in the team at some stage.
 
North Melbourne to honour club legends with 'Greig' and 'Schimmelbusch' ends

It's 40 years since Grieg retired and he remains my all-time favourite player, he was such a silky player who floated over the ground. And Schimma was probably the Shinboner of the Century before Archer.

Wish they could play forever.
