Preview R16: Changes v Carlton

[Scorpus]

I'm guessing the players have immediately forgotten about that match. A shocker.

Anyway, a lot of players weren't bad enough to be dropped, but weren't all that good. Unless Seedsman is fit, I'm guessing we'll see no changes.

A couple of players were particularly bad: Lever and Smith in particular. Lever has been good in the past so I wouldn't drop him. Smith? Another couple of bad games and he'll be gone.

Mackay barely passable once again. He'll come out for Seedsman (I hope). Douglas better

 

[WAG]

Dougy working into som decent form.

Whipping boy out imo but won't happen.

Lever was god awful but is young and has credits.

 

[Combathorse]

Smith out, Doedee in.

 

[Crom]

Unchanged

 

[Red mist]

Unchanged

Yarp. Unless injury.

 

[Crowstar]

Def no change again.

Smith still providing enough run to warrant his spot.
Lever had a shocker but has plenty of credits in the bank.
Mackay got better as the game went on.
Douglas was very good all game.

Keep rolling legends

 

[Anzacpaul]

Unchanged, though pencil in Mackay for seed when he's ready.

 

[Damp Squarie]

Out: You know who
In: CEY...last game at the G before the finals - Give CEY a run on it!

 

[1970crow]

I thought Dougie went missing for a couple of large patches. Seems to have a bit of zip back though, so definitely working into it.

I think we all went missing for a bit but he's finding his feet in a new role I reckon. He's sharing time with CC, Lyons, Crouches etc in th middle which is knocking his momentum but the team are gelling so well. I'm absolutely loving the cohesion

 

[Sam_Malone]

In: Doedee
Out: Mackay - smith moves to a wing

 

[whitey_1975]

out Mackay in Seed if ready or Milera. Mackay is just awful.

 

[Danger in Texas]

What I'd do:

Out: Mackay, Smith
In: two of Seed/Milera/Doedee

What will happen:

Unchanged

 

[MRB37]

It'd be cool to see Doedee get a game, but I reckon they'd go for Otten first.

 

[AFC979810]

Seriously... Drop Mackay???

You idiots see one or two clangers a game and crucify him.

4th for disposals today. 4th for most effective disposals out of all Crows. 7th best ED%. 1st in R50's. 3rd in clearances. 6th for tackles.

If you are dropping on form - Smith makes way well before David.

 

[Tex200]

Spotlight on B Smith imo

 

[Elder van Berlo]

In: Milera
Out: don't care.

 

[Elder van Berlo]

Spotlight on B Smith imo

Very near top of the pops for meters gained. Had one of those days where his teammates didn't do him many favors - constantly being given the ball in bad areas.

Not his best but I reckon his season has been underrated. Wouldn't be against pushing him up the ground and giving him a bit more freedom.

If anyone wants to point to one poor kick, well I spotted about 50 other poor kicks from others today. Like you I didn't see Mackays game as bad.

I do think unchanged is the most likely. Not averse to getting Seedsman in before the Collingwood game for a run ( if he is able) . I think he has set himself for a good one against Collingwood and a run a week before would set him up

And Smith hasn't been bad for just 1 week. Has had a poor month.

Mods can we just sticky Scorpus outs for the next game .......they are the same every week

What outs? I said we'd be going in unchanged

How does Lever get credits after only 25 games?

Think you said this

[Magma]

out: stupid little 20 meter kicks inside
in: smarter disposal.

smith is right on the limit. had numerous very poor games and seems to be clinging on by reputation. his kicking and run has largely disappeared unfortunately.

 

[Scorpus]

Think you said this

Oh right. I meant in the future when Seedsman is fit. Actually if Smith's form keeps up, he'd be out first.

In the second sentence I said unchanged
