Defensive shuffle during Bombers game and changes for next week.

[Mental Magpie]

Why didn't we make any moves?

John Anthony has been trying his heart out in the forward line and up until Sat against the Bombers I think it been a relatively good move.

What I can't understand is why he wasn't moved in the second quarter onto Loyd who was taking Wakelin to the cleaners.

Anthony to Loyd, Wakelin to Nathan Brown's opponent and Brown to the forward line.

Dawes needs to come in and be left in for the next four rounds as a minimum.

Drop Wakes and move Anthony to the back line, bring in Dawes.
Drop Johnson and bring Fraser in as a forward.
Play Medhurst and Thomas through the midfield giving them a rest up front.
Drop wellingham and bring in Goldsack. Midfielder / Flanker.

Dawes deserves to play this week. He might actually surprise a few and take 6 or 7 marks kick 2 or 3 goals

I was at the game on Saturday and was wondering just why Dale Thomas was left at full back on Reimers in the third quarter? Thought Daisy was good with 15 touches in the first half but MM left him at full back and ut of the play.

Agree with Dawes, the Pies desperately need another tall target up forward.

Dawes HAS TO come in!!!
I dunno what MM and the coaching staff are waiting for!
I think Wellingham has been playing alright though, Daisy might need a rest.
Agree with the johnson move.
Presti may be back soon..

Still can't work that one out!

How did you think the umpires went as a neutral supporter of West Coast?

Can of worms....according to a lot of oppo posts, apparently the umpires favour Collingwood. We are their love children...lol
Not sure of the exact stats but 15-2? in the first half , not in our favor, either means we are really undisciplined or the umpires believe in "tough love".

What is with the calls to drop Wellingham? Dropping the kids with pace and skill will get us nowhere. It's the older guys without pace and skill that are killing us. It infuriates me.
