Gawn must come in, as Jamar is a liability.
Really think Kent is harder than several and we need to give him a go.
Interesting to see what they do with Watts, dropped but didn't play for Casey,WTF?
Would like to know just where Dawes is at as well.
Jetta was also ordinary today, just doesn't work hard enough off the ball, although isn't alone there.

OUT;Jamar,Toumpas,Davey(injured?)anyone of Pederson,Sellar,Jetta,Byrnes
IN;Gawn,Kent,Blease,Watts?,Dunn?
Just keep turning them over until you find 22 who have a go all day, win, lose or draw.
 
Out: our second half work ethic.

In: some stamina and some balls
Like was said earlier to be outscored 2.2 to 24.something, is unacceptable especially after a 20 min break.

Maybe some harder endurance training sessions are called for?
 
No Patton next week. Terrible sight to see him go down with an ACL but it's a changes thread so I'll mention it. It means we have more than enough defensive talls available. Garlo definitely goes forward now and kicks 4 or more and boosts his confidence.

Rest Sellar.

Not sure what to do with Pedo.

I'm conflicted.

I feel very sorry for the kid, he deserves a proper crack at the level - but I hate GWS.

I think Watts should come in for Sellar or Pedo - and play up forward.

I'm not sure that it's a fitness issue, more the players just switch off mentally after half time and come out cold. They need to fire up straight after they come back on the field, not after 10 minutes or so, otherwise the opposition can pile on goals while our blokes try and get up to speed again.
 
Gawn has to play, that means one of Sellar/Pedersen to go (Sellar for mine).

Toumpas will get a rest, expecting to see either Kent or Blease return for him.

Strauss good at Casey, good enough to displace Jetta after just the one game? Not so sure.

In: Gawn, Kent
Out: Sellar, Toumpas

That's only the 3rd Qtr .. didn't want to feel any worse by looking at the last qtr as well.
 
Maybe what we need is after 3/4 time Jamar (assuming he is still in) to come out and just flatten Brogen, a good melee ought to fire everyone up for the second half
Plus that way if he gets a week we will be forced to play gawn or spencer
 
Leave Sellar, dump Pedo. I'm all for Joel Macdonald, I know his skills aren't the greatest but he always gives 100% and doesn't stop running.
 
Out: Jamar, Toumpas, Pedersen, Sellar, Byrnes

In: Gawn, Kent, Watts, McKenzie, Strauss

Assuming Bail and McKenzie are fit.

Terlich-Frawley-Jetta
Grimes-McDonald-Strauss
Bail-McKenzie-Matt Jones
Trengove-Watts-Howe
Davey-Clark-Sylvia
Gawn-Jones-Viney

Kent-Tapscott-Garland-Evans(Sub)
 
Neeldy himself suggested Toumpas needs a break next week (in the post-game presser).

Also mentioned "a tall type" under an injury cloud, and Jamar under an injury cloud (hence why Spencer and Watts were kept as emergencies). Hmm.

i thought he ran and tackled well, his foot skills where also great.
Agreed, he was really putting in and seemed to be doing the right things in the fwd 50 and also putting in the defensive efforts.

Couldn't understand why he was subbed.
 
Unless he is injured Jamar won't be dropped. Not yet anyway. Spencer hasn't done much in the magoos and Gawn needs more game time to build up his match fitness. If he comes in then he rucks 80-85% of the game, and I'm not confident he can do that just yet.

Strauss, Kent and McKenzie are in the mix. Pedersen and Sellar are two who stand out to me as needing a break. I think we are beginning to get the mix of players right, they just need more time together.
 
I'm pretty sure Spencer hasn't played in the magoos for like 2 weeks due to being an emergency. Close to playing.

He shouldn't be.
