What I'd like to see:
Out: McKinley, Thomas, Pratt, Hansen, Grima
In: McIntosh, Speight, Delaney/Tarrant, Atley, Campbell

What will happen:
Out: McKinley
In: Delaney/Tarrant
 
Grima out- gun player, but clearly underdone. decision making and disposal was nothing short of atrocious. give him a spell in the magoos to get some touch back. Tarrant in.

McKinley out- banging down the door in the two's and deserved his opportunity. but showed nothing to warrant his spot in the side. Also cant have both edwards and himself in the one forwardline. Harper in.

One of Pratt/McMahon/Firrito - all similar type players who dont offer enough run in the backline. One needs to go. Atley in.
 
out thomas ( how anyone can justify his contined selection amazes me) pratt ( game has passed him by too slow) mcmahon ( too slow) hansen ( needs to get some confidence at vfl level) what i would like to see is mcintosh, harper, atley, tarrant, arron black at least looked at and or ben warren depending on his injury speight needs to be considered cunnington is another who needs to have a good hard look at himself oh and yes i would be picking matty campbell as well
 
No changes. According to Scott we improved on the last two times we played StKilda so the Match Committee must be happy with the loss.

H: Rawlings - Delaney - Thompson
HB: Firitto - Grima - Richardson
C: Anthony - Swallow - Speight
HF: Bastinac - Hansen - Adams
F: Harvey - Petrie - Edwards
R: Goldy - Ziebell - Greenwood
Int: Wells - Pedersen - McMahon
Sub: Atley

Out: Cunnington - Pratt - McKinley - Thomas
In: Speight - Atley - Richardson - Delaney

Could see Cunners, Thomas and Pratt/McMahon retained although all would be lucky based on performace/team balance.

We need run and carry and the ability to apply pressure quickly over and over. Speight, Ats and Richo all are fit and quick and can provide this, Delany will take Dawes or Cloke with Grima/Hansen/Pedo to take the other.

Wouldn't be surprieed to see Grima make way either.
 
Has everyone forgotten about Garlett?
Nope, but he adds nothing that we don't have already. We don't need another mid paced, inside mid in the 22. Especially not one that's 174cm tall.

I like Cruize as a player, and think he has talent but the truth is he can only be considered as injury cover or unless a bloke like Cunners is omitted.
 
I almost wouldn't be surprised to see McKinley retained for one more week.

Throw him in the deep end against the Pies.

Yes, of the Pacific Ocean.

He should be way ahead of cunnington, he needs a real crack at AFL not to be sub every week. He averages over 30 disposals in VFL and is in the bests every week, not to metion how much north ballarat has improved since he came back he is a game changer just needs a good run, if he was with any other AFL team he would be playing in the seniors.
 
Outs: Pratt, McKinley, Cunnington, Thomas
Ins: Atley, Speight, Delaney, Harper

and if needed
Out: Grima (looks very unfit. Time for a rest ?)
In: Tarrant

It doesn't matter.

I'd strongly consider moving Lindsay to the backline or putting him in the seconds to pick up a cheap bag of goals and get his confidence up.

Benny McKinley is probably going to struggle if he's just in the side to play a 3rd-4th string forward role. Flash would give us better defensive pressure.

It's time to throw a few around and play a few fringe types. IMO, 2011 is shot.

We are half a game out of the 8.

You're one of the Muppets on Facebook, aren't you?

Has everyone forgotten about Garlett?

Slow and very little endurance. He's got a lot to work on. In saying that though, he is very clean with his hands and disposal.

McKinley blew his chance IMO. Cracked severely under pressure multiple times and when he was on the receiving end of a centering kick from the boundary he decided to take it on the chest only for it to be spoiled. The only way he'll get another chance is if Edwards has to go out for any reason and Milky is not ahead of him.


Don't know why so many people are calling for Delaney's inclusion without dropping another tall. Especially now that Dawes is out.

He only comes in if Grima needs to go out (or dare I say it, Hansen).
Might even drop one of Grima/Hansen anyway and bring in both of Garlett & Campbell
 
Did you watch the same game today?? Useless NO.

Lachie didnt play VFL last week and came straight back into the team....what does that tell you??

My outs are Pratt.....(might be his last depending on injuries)
Grima..what happened there?? I missed that,injured or out of soughts??
McKinley (his inclusion still has me puzzled when our tall marking options were playing well as a group) He didnt play in his traditional position simple as that. Azza has this spot at present but doesn´t deserve to be dropped.

Ins :- Atley after a spell
Delaney ( fingers crossed he is our best performing defender)
Need another mid, one that wants to get into the action this week. leave that one to you guys hahaha

Yes I did watch the game. I was there! Perhaps"useless" was a tad harsh, but I thought some of Hansen's efforts were very disappointing. And so did several other supporters around me. Others also made similar comments as they walked out after the game. I don't know why so many defend this guy. This is his fifth year with us and he hasn't exactly set the world on fire. He's in danger of becoming another David Hale. The annoying thing is he could do so much better.
 
Potentially there could be a whole host of changes, there are alot of players who are performing at VFL and who deserve a shot.

Obviously not going to be this many, but each change could be justified:

Ins: Delaney, Tarrant, Campbell, Garlett, Richardson/Urqs, Atley, McMahon

Outs: Hansen, Grima, Thomas, Cunnington, Pratt/Firrito, McKinley, White

The game on the weekend was lost on the selection table. I think we should bring in a few young guys and expirement with a few things. See if we can't find a few gems.

Bring in White or Speight and see if the can't tag a Dale Thomas?

The annoying thing is that our supporters have no f***** idea. That's what is annoying.

He carried our forward line last year and after being smashed 4-5 times yesterday, I thought he carried on manfully.

He is a natural defender and he did quite well on one of the premier forwards in the comp. First up. Even Gerard and Derwayne said he did quite well on Riewoldt.

FWIW either get Foxtel IQ or binoculars so that you can watch the game and/or the replay because blindness and a lack of understanding is all i'm reading in your posts. Edit Sorry this was a bit harsh.... he is battling many ailments and I too think he should now be rested for another few weeks until he is back fit and firing.

Kicked a nice goal from outside 50 too unless you thought that was Petrie. Still

Change of heart... think we need to dig deeper into our list to see where we are really at - no better opportunity than against the champs.

H: Grima - Delaney -Garlett
HB:Cunners-Tarrant -Urquhart
C: Anthony - Ziebell -Mullet
HF: Adams - Pederson -Campbell
F: Speight - Petrie -Edwards
R: Goldy -Greenwood-Wells
Int: Bastinac - Swallow -Atley
Sub: Daw

Why not.... made me sick going back to the old guard who didn't really deserve it TBQH.

Out: Rawlings - McKinley - Thomas - Thompson - Firitto - Hansen (inj) - Pratt - McMahon - Harvey (inj)
In: Atley - Urquhart - Campbell - Tarrant - Mullet - Speight - Delaney - Garlett - Daw

Em: Harper Black C.Pederson
Inj/NIL: McIntosh, Wright, Hansen, Grima, C.Pederson, Warren, Ross, Richardson.


That would be a cracking team imo.
 
whats wrong with the thread? Pretty sure that we have seen one everyweek of footy since bf started... :confused:
