Other Teams
Richmond
Out: Mcmahon, Pattison, Hislop
In: Polak, Graham, Rance

This is probably only the 3rd or 4th time we've played the swans at the mcg this century. Let's crush em :cool:
 
Out: White, Pattison, Hislop
IN: Bowden, Graham, Thomson

After going to the Coburg match and seeing it live on TV the week before, Bowden definitely deserves to be recalled. He shouldn't have been dropped in the first place. Coughlan, Polak showing some solid form. Thomson fades in and out of games but FFS just bring him in for even 1 game at Richmond. Playing VFL all year wont do his confidence any good.

You'd think Graham would come in for Pattison who, like mentioned, was woeful.

McMahon won't be an out, though he should be.

I agree with these changes and I also agree they will not drop McMuffin.
All is forgiven after that goal by way to many. Yes he won the game for us but would it have been so close if he had not contributed minimun 2 goals (and there is a solid argument for a third) through earlier turnovers.
His performance was well below par before that match winning kick.

Agreed. They were our two biggest passengers on the day. White has a future but he looked to lack his trademark burst of speed and got caught up in tackles he'd normally break. Pattison was just woeful, no excuses anymore he just looks well out of his depth.

What a shame his ability does not match his endeavour.
Maybe transplant his heart in Hughes and we may have a player worth something

Agree. But when is it Goo, Putt and/or Thomson time??

Surely we must give these guys a run before seasons end. Especially Gourdis if he is fit, see what he is made of. Maybe we should take him to Subiaco Round 22 - that's where he is from.....

So long as Matt White gets dropped. Not certain who I want brought in but its getting to the point where you just want to see some blokes. So Adam Thomson might be the one to get a go, also Tuck has to come in surely.

Why do posters want to drop Hislop? His past two weeks have the best in his time at the club?:confused:

I agree. He's an absolute hard nut who does a lot of off the ball stuff. Keep him in. I'd give thompson a go this week perhaps.

From my point of view, he doesn't do enough. Also, for the players I want to bring in I have to make omissions. Tom is one of them.

LOLOLOL @ Conners in the middle. Let him play the first 5 minutes of each quarter and then the rest will be on the bench. Barnzy, he's not fit enough to play in the midfield (or consistantly at AFL). I know that, you know that, we all know that. :rolleyes:

At least we would get 5mins of someone actually being able to hit a target.
 
Connors had a great game Vs Hawks last season playing as a high half forward, he has the tools we know that but unfortunately he doesn't show it. I wouldn't be surprised if he was to be traded.

I'll give you another option, keep White in. White is quicker, better defensively and has better disposal than Cogs.

I'm not getting sucked into this "hack of the month. Delist." thing we seem to have going, where it's Whites turn this time after previous high-profile appearances from Edwards and Graham just to name a couple who get blown off the face of the earth by keyboard warriors following a trend that becomes "fact."

Like I said, there's nothing much left at coburg so White gets a game purely as a result. He wouldn't get a game at most other clubs.

I disagree, his form prior to the hamstring was pretty poor too. He really has not been good in the past month. Not calling for him to be delisted he must be 20th in line for that. But I am calling for him to be dropped as his form warrants it.

He is very poor overhead and Stanton exposed that and then again on the weekend he was outmarked to easily. Bring in someone who has been showing form in the magoos.
 
Hislop is playing very well, Give him a chance Toby, shit!

he and King should be **** some slack in my IMO they are both playing great footy, and when King did that Mohamed Ali stance over that Melbourne pussy who by the way flinched might i add:D it gave me tingles! they are both playing well keep them in!

Some people just want to make 4 changes a week for some strange reason.

The only 2 players i can see getting dropped are Patto and White.
