Preview Changes Vs Essendon- Round 4

[FreoRicci]

Well I guess we want to move on from that dull, poor effort at the G, so here's the changes thread..

Ins: Clarke, Dawson and C. Pearce (if fit) or Silvagni

Outs: Ibbotson, Hannath, Sheridan and Walters (if injured)

 

[Dirty_banchez]

Out: Suban, Ibbotson, De Boer

In:???

 

[Simmofreo]

Surely Morabito must at least get considered next week. Screw 8 weeks he is very much like Mundy and Barlow. Don't have much else at present

 

[Outshined]

Out: Fremantle 2011

In: Fremantle 2013

 

[Borry]

IN: Clarke, Dawson, Silvagni

OUT: Hannath, Ibbotson.

Statement time.

Understand they were very flat after a six day break and the rain last week but the effort was unforgivable. Hawthorn were only good in patches and very undermanned which makes it a whole lot worse.

Out: Hannath (woeful), Ibbo,
Sheridan, Suban, Crozier

In: Dawson, Clarke, Sylvia, Clancee, Simpson.

 

[Simmofreo]

What about Walters?? I don't think we will see him next week

 

[Docker82]

In
Sylvia, C.Pearce, Clarke, Dawson, Morabito

Out
Crozier, Hannath, Suban, Ibbotson, Sheridan

Sheridan keeps his place if Walters is injured.
Morabito as sub. The time is now!!!

In: Dawson, Clarke, Sylvia, Clancee, Simpson.

As much as my changes are almost the same as yours the only statement there is dropping Suban, which IMO really needs to be done.

Considering the forced changes we need to make the likelihood of this happening is very low.

OUT: Hannath Ibbo
IN: Clarke Dawson

The only two for me at this stage, would like to see Clancee in for Sheridan if he's fit enough.

Mora is not going to get a game after only two WAFL games, let's not get too silly.

Wouldn't mind seeing Sylvia in for Crozier or Sheridan but again it's unlikely.

As much as we need to make that statement, unfortunately just can't do that with the outs we got. Sheridan, Suban and Croizer could easily get the scapegoats.

 

[Ripper]

Surely we can leave these threads until after the last game has been analysed.

Like , maybe tomorrow?

I agree with this. Except with the Simpson inclusion. He's still too young and skinny. We're playing Essendon (top 4 quality team), North + WC in the next 3 weeks. These games will define our season. If we put in many more performances like this: top-4 hopes = over, premiership hopes = over.

Experience, hard bodies, poise.

 

[andrew99]

Why unless he's injured?
He has enough credits to escape being dropped.

It's not like we can replace him anyway... Who are we to bring in? Simpson maybe (I heard he had a blinder in the WAFL still he's very young + inexperienced). With Ibbotson out things get even more tougher. Luckily Dawson should return for some extra flexibility.

Umm he looked pretty injured to me when he went down the race and never returned

We got smashed out of the middle without Fyfe and Barlow. We need some tough nuts to get the ball out to a very ordinary forward line.

In - C.Pearce, Sylvia, Dawson, Clarke
Out - Ibbotson (Awful Luck ) , Hannath, Sherridan, Spurr, Walters ( Hopefully not needed )
If Walters is injured then we need to bring in Mora and play him off the bench.

We seriously need to inject something into the team to intimidate the opposition and make use of an awesome Sandilands.

P.S. A totally piss poor effort this evening. Nothing less than a complete reversal of attitude and performance will do!

Oh ok, I didn't notice....
That's very bad news. Hopefully he does pull up fine. The last thing we need is a removal of yet more class from our midfield rotation.

 

[Admiral Byng]

Too early, let's see who's injured.

The campaigners on TV seemed to want half of our team suspended, and they'll probably get their way.

Let's wait and see who's left...

Oh crap forgot about that too

That was halfway through the last quarter so I don't know how much weight we should place on that. No point risking anyone at that stage.

 

[cp3_jr]

Simpson is fresh and put on great pressure last week in the WAFL and ran hard whereas the outs I listed didn't give a yelp tonight. Worth giving him a shot in my opinion as his speed and skill is undeniable.
The statement is dropping four players (Ibbo injured) because Ross rarely makes multiple changes.

The good thing about posting on an internet forum is we don't have to think about reality, we can make conjectures, we can guess and we can think about every possible contingency, just for the sake of doing so.

Did Ross mention him in the presser. ?

He'll be playing vs a top-4 quality team in Essendon (a team we have struggled to beat in recent times). That's a baptism of fire...

Have I missed something with Spurr? Is he injured?

Don't think a half baked Sylvia and Mora as a sub constitutes a genuine fix for the midfield either.
