It will continue to test our depth for another month.
Pity about Madden.

 

[Battlepants]

Jeez we really can't afford any more injuries at this point.

Pruess will get a blood blister and be out for another 6

 

[Giant Pete]

Not sure who we play in Perrymans spot… such an important player player for us.
Smart, good user, plays his role so well.
Could Ward go down back, and we bring Rowston in?

Or Haynes plays smaller?

Looks like Kelly is progressing OK.
It is quite long, probably more 2nd 22 than first 22 players.
The bye comes at a good time, thankfully we beat Geelong so players get a mental refresh.
With Brown and Ward back, we hopefully don't get any more injuries vs Hawks and can maybe get Kelly back for Port game.

 

[Giant Pete]

Let’s see:
Whitfield Taylor HH
Ward Alleer Idun
Haynes Callaghan Wehr
Greene Riccardi Brown
Bedford Hogan Daniels
Briggs Green Peatling

Rowston XOH Angwin Cadman

Thomas

Thoughts?

Whitfield Taylor HH
Ward Alleer Idun
Haynes Callaghan Wehr

Bedford Hogan Daniels
Briggs Green Peatling

Rowston XOH Angwin Cadman

Thomas

Thoughts?

Also, we get most of our injured players back for swans game.

Whitfield Taylor HH
Ward Alleer Idun
Haynes Callaghan Wehr
Greene Riccardi Brown
Bedford Hogan Daniels
Briggs Green Peatling

Rowston XOH Angwin Cadman

Thomas

Thoughts?

Looks about right. I would put Thomas in the 22 and make Bedford the sub to see if that lights a fire.

Rowston XOH Angwin Cadman

Thomas

Thoughts?

Your suggestion Is good.
I think we may well need Toby to spend a fair bit of time in the midfield.
Bedford is lucky we have the injuries we do.
Perhaps he should be the sub.

Thomas has fantastic hands.

Does he have a future at AFL level?

He's far ahead of some other players of similar age on our list. It would be up to him if he thinks his opportunities are limited here and wanted to try elsewhere. I think there would be interest. He's more than just a defender IMO.

I think Angwin could do it.

Unfortunately Preuss has had horrible luck- just 10 games in 4 years with us. I genuinely feel bad for him and think we should give him another chance, but think unfortunately he will not get a contract renewal at the end of the year.

Especially with the ruck from the academy.
I think Elliot Himmelberg will join as well, Keefe retiring probably.

Maybe XO could lock down on a small forward. Showed great defensive skills against Stewart.
Not the polished disposal of Perryman, but could work as a stopper.

I wouldn’t want XOH to be anywhere near the back line …. As much as I love his effort

Thank you. I appreciate your insight. I hear some VFL watchers question his defensive efforts but I think he would get offers if he wanted to move.
Hopefully for him he recovers well and gets an opportunity to play at AFL level.

[Giant Pete]

Preuss is absolutely cooked. We have no backup rucks at the moment.

Keeffe is back. For the moment.

 

[Giant Strides]

Keeffe is back. For the moment.

Good show. Feel relieved at that news.
