Prediction Changes vs WCE ~ Round 3 2019

[AD2010]

Great win! No change!

 

[biggiemediums]

No changes bar Aish. Don't care who comes in; just don't want that waste of space on the field. I know I'm harsh on him, but it's like playing with 17 players when he's out there.

It's not like he's a Daicos or Brown where you play them for some experience and minutes. He's useless.

 

[KillerMagpies]

James Aish, get out. I've had it re.

He was good.

 

[KillerMagpies]

If fit, WHE or Adams in. Varcoe out.

 

[Maggie5]

No change for me, keep building the chemistry.

 

[frizzle]

Nah no need to rest Treloar given it's a 9 day break.

No change surely.

9 day break & it’s round 3 coming up. If we are resting players for round 3 we need a good hard look at ourselves.
Another crazy call from Adz.

 

[sr36]

Aish out.
Maybe rest Treloar.

Did he cop a knock?

 

[Gaben]

Aish out for Appleby. The amount of leeway Aish gets around here for absolute mediocrity is insane. If Mayne played like Aish he'd get ran out of the club with pitchforks

 

[swoop42]

Varcoe always provide a couple of clever moments but his overall output has lessened year on year at Collingwood and his goal kicking ability is miles below his best years at Geelong.

He'll play next week but it's hard to see him holding his place once Adams and Hoskin-Elliott are fit to return as both are miles more influential on an outcome of a match.

 

[JOELY]

Wouldn't be bringing Sier in after what i've seen the last couple of weeks in the VFL. It's never been a strength but his body language is not good. Continually drops his head and intensity just disappears at times. Not sure what's going on with him, but the only thing stopping him is how much he wants it and i'm not convinced at the moment.

 

[THATSGOLD]

I’m going to go with no change. I think young Aisho kicked one on the full which looked bad but he needs to cement his place.

 

[THATSGOLD]

Has Varcoe gained a bit of weight in the past few weeks? Looks heavy.

Sier Id like to find out what’s going on with him.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Aish out. We are weaker with him in the side. Any side.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

No change.

 

[Thefly38]

Lol , Aish was good , some of you guys just need someone to knock it’s ridiculous.

No change. WHE for Varcoe would be it if he was available.

 

[Adz]

Lol , Aish was good , some of you guys just need someone to knock it’s ridiculous.

No change. WHE for Varcoe would be it if he was available.

You want to drop the teams best tackler?

 

[Thefly38]

You want to drop the teams best tackler?

Lol

4 players laid more tackles

8 laid the same amount including Aish

 

[Scodog10]

Only got to see the last half, Treloar isn't right IMO, his kicking is atrocious especially on the run.

We’ve been watching different Treloar’s because the one I’ve watched for the past 8 seasons has always been iffy on the fly. He’s 100% fit.

I’ll back our back 7 in against WC fwd third so for me it’s a about forward presence v midfield supremacy. Varcoe was the worst of our fwd group and it’s two down games in a row so he’s the most vulnerable. Aish won’t be dropped and rightly so.

I would go:

In: Sier/ Wills
Out: Varcoe

We’re operating in a silo so we can only go on what’s been proven so Sier has to be in the mix. Play Beamer and Steele forward more and you comfortably cover Varcoe’s output offensively with the added midfield power hopefully overcoming the hit you take at ground level defensively.

What we’ll see:

No change.

And I’m cool with that.

 

[Albert Parker]

I'd persist with Varcoe. I do think his forward pressure causes turnovers and he has neat skills.
So often, players panicking cause turnovers which hurt us. Varcoe doesn't tend to do that (admittedly he doesn't have a lot of the ball).
With Beams in the team, we may get away with not having Sier in the team against the Weagles.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

Only got to see the last half, Treloar isn't right IMO, his kicking is atrocious especially on the run.

His kicking is atrocious because he is stuffed from gut running up and back. It's a common problem, there aren't many who run that hard and quick and that use the ball really well all the time.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Varcoe and Aish are the only ones on the potential chopping block, but for team unity, you would leave them unchanged.

It was a fantastic performance.

Matches like this can really galvanise the group.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Stephenson didn’t have his best game.
He seems to lack the same impact he had last year.

I would love to see him play deep forward, and outrun any defender back to goal.

He gets a little bit lost when he plays higher up the ground.

 

[TKiL]

Heard DeGoey will be rested - managing his load plus he's rostered on at the Salvos...

 

[Bad Horse]

[Cousin of Daicos]

If it were up to me, I'd be dropping Phillips for Sier. Phillips is like a physically weaker, less skilled Sidebottom. There's no need for him to be in the team. At all.

Most likely though we won't be making any changes.
