[scoota10]

.........IN...................................OUT

Petrenko.or Lyons....................Porplyzia
Otten....................................Johnston
Jenkins...................................Mckernan
Hartigan or Yolmen...................Shaw
Cameron.................................Wright
Would like to get Cameron in the side as the SUB
To me the players I am Dropping deserve it (passengers)
I am Guessing Otten will be ready

Finally from left field, WHY didn't they try Pods at C/H/B, and Rutten , to either F/Forward or C/H/F

Looks like low 20's and overcast next Sunday - should be pretty good conditions. Need to field a quicker team imo. Not against Petrenko in the side along side Betts.

Isn't the game on Saturday?

 

[robboaustralia]

In: Hartigan, Laird, Lyons, M.Crouch, Jenkins

Out: Rutten, Jaensch, Porplyzia, B.Crouch, McKernan,

 

[robboaustralia]

Out: Porps, Reilly, Shaw, Pods

In: Crouch, Laird, CEY, we deserve to play a man down til Tex comes back for being so ratshit

He was good yesterday.

I'd like to see Charlie given a go as the sub, even if he doesn't yet have the tank to last a whole game it shouldn't be a problem unless he gets subbed in early due to an injury. He has speed, hunger for a tackle, can kick a goal and create them, and the experience he'll gain will help him develop quicker. We need to start taking some gambles and stop choosing the safe option of relying on so called "experience".

Andy Otten will only start running this week. He isn't ready yet.

Give him a fortnight. He may get up fir the Saints game.

Well after yesterday I have finally calmed down. Just cant believe the way we played. I was listening to Rucci this morning and i think he was reading my mind cause he said just what i was thinking. Why dp we keep on drafting the same type of player. I know Sando loves contested ball but the game has changed back to running. There is no point in having a heap of players wanting to get the ball if there is no one on the outside to give the ball to. Mckay can do it as can Smith. Hopefully Hendo comes back soon so that we can move Smith to the midfield. Next week there needs to be about 5 changes.
In - jenkins
Out - Mckernan
In Laird
Out - Porplysia with Jaesnch moving forward
In Lynch if hes ready
Out - Podsiadly. He can be an assistant but not a player
In M.Crouch
Out B Crouch INJ
In Otten if hes ready
Out Shaw (injured)
In Lyons
Out Reilly
In Tex - Please just bring him in
Out - Thompson. doesnt need to be like for like as we canjust change the stucture

Keep Johnston in?

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

He was good yesterday.

First AFL game for some time in a hot contest so I have no doubt that he will be selected for the Swans

Unfortunately Charlie didn't do a lot in the reserves match on Friday.
I'd still pick him against the Swans though. He has great skills and heart.

 

[Bailey01]

Do people think that Matt Crouch will get picked

 

[FullyBigKPro]

In: Hartigan, Laird, Lyons, M.Crouch, Jenkins

Out: Rutten, Jaensch, Porplyzia, B.Crouch, McKernan,

Jaensch aint getting dropped, plenty more in the que ahead of him. Agree with the others.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Rohan likely to miss this week, I was worried about his pace across HF

 

[Paladin]

The other thing I will add the loss of Mumford has been very under stated and with all the Buddy talk the Mumford loss and impact on the way the swans play has been largely missed.

I think Mumford will be a bigger loss than Buddy will be a gain. They have always relied on a dominant ruck to give their hard nosed mids first use. A bit like us.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Jaensch aint getting dropped, plenty more in the que ahead of him. Agree with the others.

Tend to agree

However with Laird hopefully back I would rather see MattyJ further up the ground

With Goodes injured I think they are also missing Jude Bolton's leadership

See, I'm not saying it's a good idea to play him (as the sub) because it's a guarantee that he'll play well against the Swans, but because it will be valuable experience for his development. I'm prepared to accept the short term pain of the inconsistency of a few young players in the team if the aim is a benefit in the long term. I don't necessarily want a team full of rookies as the lack of competitiveness overall can turn into a negative sort of experience, like Melbourne for example, but we need to start shifting selection in this direction because we have been far to focused on experience.

Yeah probably overreacting to his turn over goal yesterday. He has been ok.

WIll be interesting to see if we actually have a 'gameplan' against the Swans...

Like, you know, maybe tag Hannebury.... He managed like 48 touches against us last time?

Swannies seem to have alot of issue similar to us... could be a very tough close game.

38 in 3 quarters and 20 in the 2nd quarter

 

[Bailey01]

Would rather be more acountable in general and not letting players get into the late 30's to 40's

 

[Bailey01]

Carn guys Sydney are in bad form so we have a chance

 

[pjcrows]

Typically, this is a game we win. But nothing's been typical recently.

 

[Bailey01]

Just hope Danger plays better and if he does it will go a long way to winning cos he had a shocker

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

And the reserves play Sunday. The day after the game.

Disappointing for those pushing for selection.
