Changes Vs North

[Kyusss]

IN - Coughlan Cousins Thomson Cotchin Raines Patto

Out - Take your pick

 

[Barnzy]

Cotchin and Raines haven't even played a VFL match yet.

 

[strauchy]

someone please let me know why McMahon was even brought back in today..

IN: Cousins.(play him for a half of footy) Pattison
OUT: McMahon, (for the rest of the year) Graham

dont rush cotchin back because if something happens to him. then all our hope will be shattered. we need to keep a close eye on Rance Vs Raines for the backline spot. dont get me wrong, i like the way Rance plays but is he really ready? i do however prefer Rance one on one because Raines cant play on anyone.
I don't think Connors can hold his place in the team. i would like to see thomson come in off the bench at some stage because he is an inside player - one that we need desperately.

Richmond needs to learn how to block for Deledio! his run and carry is going to waste unless we can support him through blocks.

 

[_RT_]

Out: Simmonds Brown

 

[Maybenextyear]

Get Brown out. Does'nt work hard enough and does'nt do enough. He has lost it. Sorry.

 

[Heisenberg_]

Bowden may have had 44 touches, 41 uncontested, but seriosuly, he is done, he was pathetic today and symbolises everything that is ****ed with the "gameplan" w are using.

 

[krustyman]

Out: riewoldt, hislop, connors, either white/jackson

In: Schultz, cogs, cousins/raines/cotchin (if all available), thompson

seniors need to improve - symmonds, and brown
need to become more dangerous - tuck, deledio and foley (lots of possessions but little penetration)
need to improve disposal - everyone

 

[Madtiger2006]

out:tuck, simmonds, hislop, white
in:thomson, patto, post, putt

*Gold Star*

The most useless 40+ possession game I have ever seen.

 

[Hong Kong Phooey]

A team with heart!!

 

[ToroHombre]

Out: McMahon, Wallace, Bowden, Connors (unfortunately he had a bad one)
In: Coughlan, Hardwick, Cousins, Thursfield

 

[PHX]

McMahon the scapegoat again? McMahon wasn't bad enough to be dropped, wasn't greatly effective but there were plenty worse. He stays.

 

[Heisenberg_]

*Gold Star*

The most useless 40+ possession game I have ever seen.

I was just disgusted every time he got one of his cheap useless touches, kicked it 15.1 metres then took the handball receive.
Retire and just worry about the AFLPA, best thing he could do for the club

 

[Tiger Fury #3]

Out: McMahon, Wallace, Bowden, Connors (unfortunately he had a bad one)
In: Coughlan, Hardwick, Cousins, Thursfield

Thursfield got injured in the VFL yesterday.

 

[JDC!]

Why all the hate on McMahon? I thought he was pretty good today. Sure he turned the ball over a couple of times but he did plenty of nice things with it.

 

[Tigertom]

Unchanged

Dropping a player is the easy way out Make him front up again next week and do what he is paid for. We are a proffessional club paying players good money so they can play VFL. DUMB

Realistically who are we going to bring in, Tambling, Schultz, King, etc, We sent these blokes back last week, I bet they have learned a lesson?

Cotchin needs several games in VFL to get some fitness
Cousins needs 1 or 2 more weeks to ensure hamstring is right, then a run in the VFL.
Coughlan is hardly dominating VFL or he would be mentioned in the bests.

Players should be elevated on form not on past reputations.

 

[Goldust]

Sadly, you can't get away from the fact that those who put their hnads up most for a call-up were Schulz (six goals, Edwards and Tambling, but that's likely not the way we'd like to go. Would like to see them put together another, preferably two, solid performance in the twos to earn a recall.

I think it might be time to see if Coughlan still has what it takes and I think Thomson should get a call-up too
Fingers crossed Cousins may be ready.

And wouldn't mind Patto back in.

Connors deserves another crack - defeats the purpose!

Sadly - as I like the guy - Matthew White has to go back to Coburg for now. Far too many turnovers today.

For mine it's:

IN: THOMSON, COUGHLAN, PATTISON, COUSINS.
OUT: WHITE, SIMMONDS (it's time for a kick up the a**e), BROWN (see Simmonds), JACKSON.(only if Cousins is ready!!)
ON NOTICE: TUCK, JACKSON.

 

[_RT_]

Hey Nathan in case you're reading, Coburg are playing at Box Hill Oval this Saturday in the traditional ANZAC day game against Box Hill. You might want to leave hom early because there might be a bit of traffic on the road due to the ANZAC parade.

 

[PHX]

As much as before round 1 I'd want him out, I'd keep Jackson in purely because he is one of the few who genuinely gives a stuff.

 

[sante]

Doesn't matter, we have no gameplan or urgency to play as a team.

 

[coke_zero]

Bowden may have had 44 touches, 41 uncontested, but seriosuly, he is done, he was pathetic today and symbolises everything that is ****ed with the "gameplan" w are using.

the only problem i had with joel is that he holds it to long instead of kicking it to a contest straight away.

 

[I Rock]

Out:

McMahon - Hopeless anyone saying different is way off. Only in the squad because of the connection to Wallaces from his time at the dogs.

Bowden - Congrats on the best and fairest and All Australians now piss off and join your brother in the country comp.

Brown - Lazy, not interested and useless. **** of and sell T-Shirts ya girls blouse.

Simmonds - Moves like a building yet a building can take a grab and kick better.

Jackson - Serves little purpose.

Hislop - Did he play after the first five minutes.

Connors - Need to do better than that lad.


In:
I don't think this will make much difference.


As for Wallace the only thing that would stop me from asking him to walk away is if Cambell was then put in charge. As a player Cambell embodied everything we don't want/need as a coach.

they need to kick to a player free in the open rather than a contest. they might as well kicki it to the melbourne player because none of the forwards can win the ball.

Got some news for you. Chip kicking tha ball around and and holding up the play doesn't win you games, it allows the opposition to crowd your forward area and gibe you no option but to kick to a big pack

**Breaking News ***
Forwards must move into space to take marks. bombing it in is low very option unless you got someone tall enough to take them. they had to move richo in the forwards because they got nothing out of the others.
