Preview R5: Changes vs. Carlton

[Cromulant]

Well there you go.

 

[Mutineer]

So perhaps this board including me have been a bit harsh on Fog's poor form this season, seems he may have been trying to play through the back issue

Strange given we have been pretty cautious with our management this season so far.

Maley stays in surely

 

[Geoffa32]

Voss out of Carlton and in as our midfield coach....

 

[1970crow]

Might explain his lack of good form.

 

[FR0GGY]

Reckon Thilthorpe is banged up too.

Multiple back issues, hamstrings……Soligo and Rankine clearly not fit.

When are we making a hard call on our fitness and conditioning teams?

You’re still responsible for your performance. It explains why he’s been poor, but he’s still been poor and that warrants criticism.

If Fog isn’t right then right to rest him. But how does he go from warming up to line up to missing two weeks? Starting to have real concerns about this fitness guy.

Youd have to have your eyes and ears closed to think we are the only club going through it.

 

[Scorpus]

Fogarty still out is no reason to keep ROB

TT, Walker and Maley is enough talls

Especially seeing as it might be wet on Thursday night.

The new guy has only been here a short while

Fogs back has been long term

Did Burgess manage it better? At least we are seeing restraint around injuries rather than '' play through the pain ''

That would be more the doctors and physios. The fitness guy does the conditioning, not injury management.

But we don’t seem to want any of them doing the 30% of rucking that’s required.

Because Nicks has a turkey brain

 

[Cromulant]

Because Nicks has a turkey brain

Thats unlikely to change

 

[FullyBigKPro]

ROB absolutely must be dropped this week... MacAndrew will be fine against Pittonet with chop outs from Maley

PLEASE give Edwards a go Nicks.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

ROB still needs to go & we have a smaller forward line when Maley needs to ruck.

Maley did previously.

 

[1970crow]

Maley did previously.

And even though he showed a bit we then dropped him for ROB.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

ROB gives us NO advantage at all.

Only about 22%, pretty sure Mcadrew played 78% game time before dinosaur came in

I’d go Murray in for ROB/Maley as the 2nd ruck KPF, then bring in Edwards for another running option.

 

[1970crow]

Has been 77, 77 and 72. I can’t see them wanting to admit they made a mistake. And with Fog not coming in, they can just avoid making a decision.
