Like the changes. I think by naming Apeness and Jones we may be able to stretch the Collingwood defense without Howe chopping off the high balls. I wonder without Matera we will see Walters spend the majority of the game forward rather than rolling through the midfield or if we will see Giro play as a small forward. Either way im glad we have made these changes and now we will actually have another tall target to kick to in the forward line to at worst bring the ball to ground.
At the end of the day these changes had to be made, Ballas unfortunately has not been able to put the runs on the baord this year and Johnson just loks like his body can't do what it used to be able to do. Usually when i see the words In and Sheridan i cringe but with the other changes this week i dont mind it as i dont feel that Crowden or anyone else in the Peel team has put their hand up just yet. I think that Kersten is worth looking at to see what he can give us down back but i feel that he is just keeping that spot warm for when Logue is match fit.
