Changes v the Hawks?

[M Malice]

Mise well get the conversation started early and then we can move on.

Outs- C.Beams, Harwood, Martin and give one of Hipwood/Schache a rest.
Ins- Cox, Walker, Smith and Clayton.

Beams and Harwood don't seem up to AFL standard, Martin soft and I want to see what Archie can do, Cox needs more experience into him ASAP, Walker key position help and also want to see what Clayton can do, has been getting some great reports in the NEAFL.

The sad thing is outside of Beams and Bundy we are pretty much fielding our strongest side...

To be fair they are pretty big outs. We could really use two, bigger bodied, experienced midfielders/forwards who use the ball well and can kick goals. Plus Beams is our captain and Bundy is in the leadership group. But yes it does expose our depth or lack thereof.

It is a fair indication of where we are as a club and team. We really can't go with anyone. Our best is fun to watch offensively but defensively we are still so far behind. A team like ours really can't afford to be without their best player.

Clayton?

 

[briztoon]

Archie, Walker and Cox are definite ins for me. I would rest Hipwood instead of Schache. Martin rested. Harwood out.

Bring in Walker, Smith and Mathieson.
Walker is just that experienced head down back that is useful.
Realistically, the whole point of bringing in Frost was to play on the Buddy's etc. Not sure what people were expecting of him...
Smith, brings aggression, leap and first use to midfielders.
Mathieson is a bit on an inside bull, really helps with our clearances. Also brings aggression, brings a bit of enthusiasim to the side as well l reckon

Those Mature top up players are not setting the NEAFL alight. Bell, Bastanic and Frost.

Anyone know why Walker seems on the outer?

We have a lot of hot and cold young kids what else can we do.
Blood them until they get bugger then drop then to the NEAFL, although does not seem many setting the NEAFL on fire

Try Harris Andrews in the forward line and Hippy at CHB.

Could freshen them up and give them both a new challenge/different perspective

Bam, the preview thread is already ready to go.
