Changes v Richmond

[Ben the Gooner]

Might be a positive thread this week!

IN: Dyson
OUT: Welsh (inj.)

Fairly straightforward: Reimers to FF like he did in the second half, Dyson to be the sub.

B: Hardingham - Hurley - Hibberd
HB: Fletcher - Pears - Heppell
C: Stanton - Prismall - Melksham
HF: Monfries - Crameri - Zaharakis
F: Davey - Reimers - Colyer
R: Ryder - Hocking - Howlett
I: Hille - McVeigh - Jetta
S: Dyson

In: Gumby to play FF.

Gumbleton to CHF and Cramdog to FF. Assuming Gumby's ready. Sad for Welsh he was finally starting to show us all why he's in the team and goes and does his hammy.

Blood ben, always putting your name in lights!

Out: Welsh
In: Willaims

Like for like, Colyer back to sub. He had a real impact when he come on.

Busted.

just gonna throw this out there...i go back to making the gameday threads...we win

 

[Childish Gambino]

Out: Welsh

In: Willo

Yep, let's go like for like. No need to change anything up.

Like the position Remiers played last night. Gave him an opportunity to get in the game with a few cheap possessions rather than being stuck in the forward line.

 

[Tassieboy]

In: Dyson. Liked our speed.

Williams, nah - don't see him adding anything. Our work ethic finally picked up and I don't think he's a goer. Would be happy to be wrong though. Don't want Gumby, we had a perfect balance against the Cats and Gumby could change the dynamics again.

 

[whats_at_stake]

I seem to recall their being some rule about not posting a changes thread until 24 hours later?

Anyway Welsh out and one of Williams, Dyson or Carlisle in. Gumby does not deserve a game ahead of Carlisle.

 

[Skeeta Olly]

No Bendigo game makes it harder to pick the player that will come in for Welsh. Dyson or Williams I'm guessing, guaranteed they'll be the sub.

 

[Kong]

Out: Welsh

In: Willo

Agree with this.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

These would be my changes, however I'd be surprised if McVeigh did actually get dropped due to Hird's relationship with him.

OUT: A.Welsh (inj.), M.McVeigh (omitted)
IN: J. Carlisle, H.Slattery

 

[Macca18]

Forward line functioned well last night against the best defence in the competition. I don't think bringing Gumby or Willo at the moment is the answer, especially on the MCG. Richmond have had some real issues with their defence in recent weeks and can be easily exposed in this area.

I'd be happy for Dyson to come in to replace Welsh. He is overdue for a crack at the seniors and his pace will be beneficial on the MCG. Apart from that, no changes.

Or they fact that he totally blanketed Bartel for most of the night?

 

[Skeeta Olly]

...and that he's a leader/experienced player who is now more important with Welsh going down.

 

[Duckworth]

agree. If you were going to drop someone based on last nights form it would be Hardingham. You don't drop someone after one bad one though.

Out: Welsh
In: Willaims

Like for like, Colyer back to sub. He had a real impact when he come on.

Don't understand how Williams is like for like with Welsh. Replacing a guy who gives 100% and plays for the jumper (what we have lacked the last few weeks) with an under-performing VFL player with zero presence. Only similarities are that they are both reasonably accurate kicks for goal inside 50.

Harsh marker.

 

[SirJimi05]

Harsh marker.

He showed good character to keep on plugging away but he was well down on his previous form.

I lost count of the amount of times he turned the ball over.

 

[Burzum]

Out: Welsh

In: Willo

Agree with this.

Me too. Leave Hurley down back.

 

[BomberTime]

The big MCG track...lets bring in a guy who can provide another link and can take a strong grab.

In: Gumby

Out: Welsh
