Prediction R3 Changes v Richmond

[Lach72]

Darcy out. Cox in

Walker back in for either McVee or Worner
Cox for O Mac
Amiss is in the gun…

 

[King Tenz]

Out: Darcy because he's not good. Omitted.

Out: McVee because he's an awful disposer of the footy and doesn't do anything else to warrant selection.

Could also drop Amiss if you wanted but I'm not too tilted about it either way.

In: Cox & Walker.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Let me save you all the trouble, Darcy won’t be dropped.

 

[YelloMit]

Out: Darcy, McVee
In: Cox, Walker

 

[King Tenz]

Let me save you all the trouble, Darcy won’t be dropped.

yeah I know but imma still advocate for it.

 

[Lach72]

Let me save you all the trouble, Darcy won’t be dropped.

Has to be. If he looks that fat and unfit and uncompetitive in half a game he can sit at Peel.

 

[Rockmelon]

Give cox another week to get his calf right

Don’t know who Walker comes in for?

Darcy won’t get Dropped, give him another week against Nank

 

[PowerToThePurpl]

Sean ain’t fit, you can’t watch that game and tell me he’s fit, give him a month at Peel to build his tank then come back. We have the opportunity to manage him.

Out: Swag, OMac
In: Double Cox

Walker potentially for McVee, otherwise stiff

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Has to be. If he looks that fat and unfit and uncompetitive in half a game he can sit at Peel.

He looked that fat and unfit against Geelong and got picked for today.

 

[Lach72]

Give cox another week to get his calf right

Don’t know who Walker comes in for?

Darcy won’t get Dropped, give him another week against Nank

Nani is injured I think

 

[YelloMit]

Let me save you all the trouble, Darcy won’t be dropped.

He bloody should be. This is the AFL. If you can't play to the top standard and keep yourself fit, bugger off to the reserves.

 

[Docker82]

In: Cox, Cox, Young (hopefully)
Out: Darcy, McDonald, Amiss

Young to play a fair few forward minutes if he plays.

Yes, that's really harsh on Walker but it is what it is.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

He bloody should be. This is the AFL. If you can't play to the top standard and keep yourself fit, bugger off to the reserves.

I agree. Just saying he won’t be.

 

[Lach72]

In: Cox, Cox, Young (hopefully)
Out: Darcy, McDonald, Amiss

Young to play a fair few forward minutes if he plays.

Yes, that's really harsh on Walker but it is what it is.

Worner should go. Defensively good, ball use largely dog shit

 

[Heart Of Purple]

One of the biggest pros of Cox over Darcy is his ability in the forward line.

We could go smaller and bring in more run if we went with Cox and a small in place of Amiss and Darcy.

That's probably the only way I see him getting a run in the next 2-3 weeks. Otherwise they'll give Darcy a good run at it.

 

[King Tenz]

In: Cox, Cox, Young (hopefully)
Out: Darcy, McDonald, Amiss

Young to play a fair few forward minutes if he plays.

Yes, that's really harsh on Walker but it is what it is.

I know the perfect guy to drop for Walker.

Judd McVee.

 

[funguy1984]

I would keep Youngy under wraps for another week

Only one change

Out O Mac (unlucky to miss out)

In Walker

 

[Docker82]

Worner should go. Defensively good, ball use largely dog shit

Thought Worner played a pretty good game tbh. Ball use is certainly not I'd describe as largely dog shit most of the time.

McVee was the worst of our medium defenders but IMO he's a very good player and ball user when he's on. Lost his way a bit last year and if we can at least make him into the player he was in 2024 this season he's a genuine difference maker. Think he can go beyond those levels too.

 

[YelloMit]

I would keep Youngy under wraps for another week

Only one change

Out O Mac (unlucky to miss out)

In Walker

Nah, played well to keep his spot. Started shit, but picked it up.

 

[Rockmelon]

I’d actually give Young till the trip to Adelaide before I’d bring him in

Not being disrespectful to Richmond but there’s not much point having him come back not 100%

 

[YelloMit]

I’d actually give Young till the trip to Adelaide before I’d bring him in

Not being disrespectful to Richmond but there’s not much point having him come back not 100%

Agreed. Scerri was a good choice for Young too.

 

[funguy1984]

Nah, played well to keep his spot. Started shit, but picked it up.

I agree but unfortunately we are talking about JL and the match committee plus Amiss and Darcy won't be dropped anytime soon

 

[freo_leo29]

Mcvee for Walker

Simple change this week

 

[Docker82]

I agree but unfortunately we are talking about JL and the match committee plus Amiss and Darcy won't be dropped anytime soon

Let's be honest Brennan Cox is coming in as soon as JL and/or the fitness staff deem him ready. Unless Alex Pearce gets injured Oscar McDonald will make way.

And honestly if JL and match committee think anything different to that I'd be extremely surprised.

Playing with only Pearce and Ryan as KPDs might work next week against a spoon contender but most teams in the top eight will expose us for lack of height if another KPD doesn't play as well.

 

[Deathly]

I can see no changes happening.
