Analysis Changes vs Swans 2/7/16

[Optimistic Dog]

Out Dunkley, Honeychurch, Redpath,
In Wood, Boyd, Webb

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Clay, Boyd, Wood, Stevens, Webb could all theoretically come in, and fair chance I'd want them all to come in as well.

Just not sure who should come out.

 

[Pugz89]

Stevens will play VFL next week to get match tough, then hopefully in for Swans. Throw in Wood and Toyd as locks. Dahl and JJ unlikely though I reckon.

Suspect Honey, Roberts (due to smaller fwd line of Swans) and Dunkley will be the outs.

So in: Stevens, Toyd & Wood
Out: Honey, Roberts and Dunks.

I thought vfl also had bye next week , maybe wrong ?

Out Dunkley, In wood

No need to panic

Oh really? Well that sucks. I haven't checked the VFL schedule.

[The Inbetweener]

Yes Footscray have a bye too. I'd back Stevens to come straight in pending he is 100%

I'm all for playing both Red and Boyd, but is the SCG really the ground for it?

JJ probably have 2-3 weeks in VFL. Been a long time since his played

Agreed. Happy to take our time with him. Will be most important in August/September

TBH I'm not too upset about yesterday. Season isn't over yet, we had a bad day. Simple as that

The nerves really get to the boys when there is a massive crowd against a good side

 

[ossie_21]

Out - Dunkley, Roberts
In - Boyd, Wood

Only other change I'd entertain is Dickson out for Webb, wouldn't drop & can't see Bev dropping Sweetjesus after one very good game & then poor game where he wasn't alone in that regard. That change would make sense by having Webb more on the ball & Honeychurch as the pressure forward we really need

 

[AFDogs]

Some big changes from me.

OUT:
Dunkley - makes way for a more senior/experienced player. Has been good, for the most part.
Roughead - don't think we can play 4 talls and Boyd has proven to be a good 2nd ruck. Just want to see how Boyd/Campbell/Redpath fares.
Roberts - had a decent run at it, but will need to make way for Wood.

IN:
Wood - no explanation required.
Webb - good VFL form rewarded.
Boyd - needs to play seniors.

Still a bit iffy on Stevens. Send him to the VFL for a week to get some touch.

 

[immortalmike]

Will probably change after VFL next week but at this stage.

In: Stevens, Wood,
Out: Jong (did nothing wrong but Koby is a better version), Williams (going to be a gun but not ready for 4 quarters)

Possible... In: Boyd
Out: Campbell.
Roughy is better as a first ruck.

 

[Sentinel]

I know it's an extremely petty whinge, but can we have thread titles using capital letters? Like the review thread from the weekend, it bothers me more than it should, but could the mods please fix it up?

Its Sunday night and I have nothing else more important to currently worry about

There is a bye next week for both teams.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Whatever happens, Boyd is in for mine.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

As much as blokes like Williams played well and will have a week off, he was running up and down on the spot in the last quarter. I want him to stay in but if he's not physically ready for what is likely to be a bruising away game up in Sydney...

 

[immortalmike]

There is a bye next week for both teams.

Didn't vfl just have a bye?

 

[fronkalicious]

Dunkley looked cooked after the port game and i think it was a mistake to play him against the cats. He needs a decent spell in the vfl.

 

[Yojimbo]

If it is still wet in Sydney like it was today against Melbourne.

Out- Handball to kick ratio.
In- KICK to handball ratio. (No tip tap shit it's winter)

Seriously though two weeks away is an eternity, or at least
two weeks.

Listened to the VFL today a mirror image of the AFL game in
that Frankston did not kick many points. No one stood out
for mine apart from the Frankston half backs and we can't
bring them in. (yet)

 

[Pugz89]

That was due to VFL v SANFL, so every team had that bye. Now it's the individual team byes that are happening.

Fair enough. Still might change over the weeks thinking about it.

Oh yeah, i just mean there are no more games to play out beforehand.

 

[giblj]

Would love to see Webb get a game

 

[dergert]

Unpopular decision: Dickson out as well as Wallis. Two exceptional players out of form, will find it in the vfl. Don't think it will happen though.

Actually don't recall Roberts doing much yesterday. I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
