Changes vs Brisbane

[CowboyFromHell]

Out: Clarke, Jetta, Viney
In: Dawes, Strauss, McKenzie

Dawes hasn't expressly ruled out, from what I can see... a smokey?

Sounds like he will resume through the VFL as he would need the run, but there is probably a 5% chance he is rushed straight back in with Clark missing.

Doubt they would bring him back straight away, especially on the road. Asking for trouble.

 

[Captain Jack]

Definitely VFL for Dawes too... apart from the obvious match fitness issues he doesn't seem the sort of player who could walk on to the field and be playing at 100% in terms of touch, finesse, skill execution. Needs to build up some momentum first.

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

McKenzie, if fit, is an automatic in. Magner is the only one really demanding selection and we can't pick him.
Dare I say it..........Spencer for Jamar?

Thought Jamar was actualy pretty good against GWS so he is safe for this week, but spencer is killing it at Casey so Jamar is going to have to keep it up or that may very well be the case.

He hasn't played badly, but I thought about the former Psychic Friends Connection. Moloney's ability to read Jamar's hit outs and shark them is my primary concern.
As for Forrest, he'd have to string together a few good games for Casey to get back into the seniors.

 

[Topkent]

No Dawes for me pederson and gawn can take his spot in the goalsquare , just means they might have to lower there eyes more often an try and hit Byrnes, Howe, tapscott etc on the lead

Tapscott needs a big game... Though he looked decent As the lead up half forward and he can snag them from 50 ... He needs to kick 2-3 this game as does Byrnes and Howe

 

[Canary]

Out: Clark, Jetta
In: McKenzie, Blease/Nicholson.

There's no need to change the team up more than is required. Depending on what end of the ground we want to bolster, either Blease or Nicholson to come in, despite neither setting the VFL on fire. No need to add more height to the fwd line, Pedo and Gawn are tall enough. If we weren't a chance to win, I'd bring Kent/Tynan in, but for the roadtrip experience (however limited it might be)>youth

On the VFL, Mitch Clisby looks a genuine type. I'll be interested to see how he progresses.
