Changes vs Geelong

[..i love walks..]

anyone think they will bring Courtney johns into the back line anytime soon?
or in the team at all?

 

[Valley Spy]

what do we do with paddy this week? i'm, not saying he should be dropped but there is no real matchup for him as ottens hardly spends anytime in the forward line these days

Didn't think that Micky O was a good match up for him but look what happened. Has shown he can play on many types of forwards just hasn't shown the same in the ruck unfortunately.

Injured.

 

[High Ryder]

In: Hislop, Hille, Dyson
OUT: Welsh (Susp), Bolton, Campo

Give Monfries another week or 2 in the 2's to find more form and earn a recall.

i would go with

in.hille,houli,hislop,monfries
out.bolts,mj,jj,campo(only cause jimmy deserves to play his 250th by himself)

 

[DeeKayLillee]

In; Hille, Monfries, Dyson
Out; Welsh (susp), Stanton (inj), Campo

 

[Bombs Away]

In Hille, Hislop (if stants doesn't come up)
Out Bolton (less touches than Fev on the weekend with more game time and closer to the ball) and Stanton if not fully fit, he played and would have been lucky to have been 60% on friday night, couldn't turn.

With Paddy, Hille could take the ruck and then he could go forward and then ryder could pick up ottens.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

In: Hille, Hislop/Houli, Monfries/NLM/Cole
Out : Bolton, Stanton(inj), MJ/Campo

If Stanton doesn't get up then I think Campo should stay in to provide some poise in the midfield.

Bolton a definite out. MJ doesn't have a match up and I think we have others that could do his job.

Changed my tune on MJ. Hirds 250th we'll see the best out of him.

I'm pretty keen to see Hislop debut and if the raps are pretty good then what better time to debut than a milestone game.

Out: Bolton, Stanton(inj), Campo
In : Hille, Hislop, Monfries

Whats the go with wanting to drop the Johnson boys. JJ played well and was the player along with Hird who got us going in the first half. MJ was great on Robbo in the first half, Robbo just got on top of him in the third quarter. MJ will play a big game this week if not down back can atleast go forward and kick a goal aswell.

JJ was shocking. He is slow and rarely hits a target

Yes he was so bad at hitting targets that several other players had more clangers than he did

Im not saying to drop him.. I just dont think he played well

 

[Big Scottknowsall]

Am I correct in saying Rama has to be promoted off the RL and play this week in order to play at any stage for the remainder of theyear ?

 

[ant555]

You said he was bad at hitting targets. He had 3 clangers which was the same as Hird, McVeigh and a couple of others. He had 23 possessions so he didnt go too badly being effective 20 times out of 23.

 

[Bombs Away]

No

Rama can be promoted at any stage as long as there is someone on the LTI list. With neagle being taken off it most likely next week Rama just needs someone else being injured and placed on it. Needs to be an 8 week injury aswell.

Not that we want injuries to any of our players but it would be great to see rama playing for essendon again

Stats arent everything. They dont account for wrong options and things like that. The things I remember JJ doing were not great.

There is a cutoff IIRC, rookie promtions must occur before round 18.

Agreed JJ was poor on friday. Looked very slow and disposal was questionable, would still kee him in the team.

And LTIs must occur before Round 15.

Champion data stats are pretty clear actually. If you miss a target it is a clanger.They do account for effective kicks and those that miss the mark
I supose you also missed the fact that two of his pass's from the center ended up hitting forwards for a goal and his handpass to Campo out of the middle also ended up being a goal.

Looks like those calling for Bolts and Campo to be dropped may be disapointed. News from training this afternoon is Stants didnt train as expected but Winderlich looks to have done a hammy late in the session today.
With Lloyd having to fight his supension he could end up being out as well.

**** off Winders did his hammy? Were screwed. Stants and Winders are our 2 best running players. Dyson has to play now one would think.
