Maybe not as a back flanker.

Dropping Morris is silly. How many defenders could have stopped Garlett or Yarran last night? They played the games of their lives.
Yarran plays to his potential like that maybe once a year and we just happened to cop it.

Yarrans a campaigner

Out Foley, In Knights

docko911 · Mar 28, 2014

No change - Rance and Jackson aren't fully fit, and I think the other players need to be knocking down the door.

I would like to see Arnot and Knights pushing the table for selection. I'd also like to see Miles maintain his form so he gets the upgrade later in the season.

Maybe 'we just happen to cop it' from them cos they get to play on Morris... Can't just be co incidence

I don't think Martin actually connected, was a jumper punch, he has a good record, hope only a reprimand

If Morris continues to play 10-15m off his man and having 4-5 goals kicked on him as a result then he won't be in the side for long. Last night too many times Morris' hunger for the contest would seem him head off to the ball while they would sag off and get themselves into space. When the inevitable turnover/Carlton win the contest would come, they would be on the end of it, while Morris was caught in no mans land. I'm not saying he gets dropped this week but he needs to get back to being the stopper first and the impact on the contest second. Does that and he remains a lock, doesn't and there are replacements available.

I don't think he has ever had 4-5 goals kicked on him in 1 game.

Who are the replacements? Dea is injured. And don't say Helbig

Only one that could work would be to move Kingy back. His brain fade free kicks are a thing of the past.
Would allow us to use Llyod or Mcdonough up front

King might get a phantom suspension for his phantom kick to Waite's phantom teeth.

If the AFL is serious about staging Waite should go .

Yarran & Garlett kick straight and he would have last night.

I did say he stays in the side, but if he doesn't there are replacements available. Dea is one option when fit, Grimes can play on smalls, Batchelor is better on medium/small forwards than KPF we keep playing him on. Petterd isn't the worst going around and even McDonough has shown that he can play back if needed. The replacements might not be everyones first choice or favored players but they are there.

Would Morris be better played up the ground?? Where his mistakes won't cost us goals

Tzatziki_Man · Mar 28, 2014

OUT: Cotchin (rest), Conca (Rest…hamstring cramp problem)

IN: Knights + Lennon

SUB: Lennon: give Foley a few full games before completely ruling him out. Doesn't have a chance with being the sub, awful.

I said earlier in the thread Conca was a chance to be dropped, looks like he will miss with injury anyway.

I'd suspend Waite for just being a tool, but a staging tool... Well, that is bringing the game into disrepute in my books. Fine him a millions bucks and ban him from the finals.

If he was cramping up as bad as has it has been said in the 4th quarter then he could just be sore
