Tom Rockliff - 19 touches.

Rockliff is out of form, Carlton kept him to 19 last week too

 

[PJ Power]

Rockliff is out of form, Carlton kept him to 19 last week too

I reckon he had more influence than Boak

Matt White serves no purpose at all if he's carrying an injury. All he has is his pace. He's as useless as Mitchell right now, and only any good if we're winning hard ball on the inside anyway.

Out -white Mitchell Oshea

In - wines Carlile one of young/Moore/ ah chee

I could certainly think of a few I'd want to select over White at the moment. Krakouer, Frampton may be close to off LTI but Polec is on; Moore after a few more games in the SANFL; Neade who tackles a good bit more and hasn't really been tried with a tall player to feed off; Ah Chee who looks good when he's on. Maybe Port could do with testing Mitchell and Ah Chee as players to each have 50% game time. And of course Wines is coming back.

And he is definitely the type of player that at his age, is expendable to a younger player with more weapons.

Matty, when healthy and firing is definitely an asset, but if one of our pups take their opportunities and Matty is out of the side, he'll find it very hard to get back in.

Is is time to bring back Tommy Logan??

We need some pure desperation to win the contest back in the team!!!

wait a couple of weeks until when the rain comes.

 

[croweyrocks]

Totally agree I would almost think of including Wingard in the mix

Monfries saved himself today

WINGARD?

 

[Robbie4PM]

Out: O'Shea White Westy Mitchell

In: Carlisle Young Wines Moore

May even need to think about bringing Neade in so we have a genuine small forward, even though he has been terrible for the Power this year.

[Chokito]

I thought O'Shea did well today. Or maybe I kept mistaking him for Hombsch?
Sadly, not Mitchell though.

IN: Wines, Carlile
OUT: White (seems like an ongoing injury and hasnt been 100%), Mitchell (only one Kane to matter next week)

 

[PowerBaz]

i think our changes each week aren't really helping yet, seems Ken is trying to find a way to make the team click into gear.

Wingard was one of our best yesterday?

And thats whats wrong with our team since when does milestones become so important then winning premierships kane doesnt deserve to play next week cant kick or handball is essentially a passenger but no lets not drop him for ach lets drop someone else and gift kane his 300 so he then go do the selfish sct and ****off pathetic by ken n co

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

Out oshea, white, Mitchell, Amon
In Carlisle, wines, Moore, Stewart

I want to see more of Amon, but not now. His defensive efforts were poor when he came on which resulted in at least one goal.

Have a look at the replay - OShea was SANFL standard.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

White being played as a small forward is Ken's stubbornness showing through. He is not a small forward. He needs to be able to run full tilt at goals from behind centre.

Ken shows admirable loyalty to his players like Fos Williams did, but Ken those players won Fos 9 premierships. These guys have won bupkiss.

 

[tugga]

is Wines a definite inclusion?
I think we'll go tall up forward again. Carlile will help you guys.

 

[tugga]

I think Hardwick must be quite excited about meeting Port next week. I dont think any changes will save Port from falling further into the poo here.
Something strange is going on here and we may have to endure more of the same imo.

Nope. Port will lift for Cornes. We are zero chance this week and the following week when Fletcher plays his 400th against us. if we play a team full of kids again, which I hope we do, we will get belted.

He's playing him as a small forward? ****ing hell!

Everyone except Hombsch and Wingard were SANFL standard

 

[MrMeaner]

Luckily we're 7-0 and can afford to carry this scenario.

Yeah, this. While I don't begrudge Kane moving on, carrying a player until he reaches a milestone regardless of form is something that is rarely affordable in today's football. In fact, it starts to look kind of arrogant (a word that seems to be cropping up a hell of a lot around here lately).

 

[MrMeaner]

Anyone else worried that the team will just expect a repeat of the first quarter from last year's semi-final?
