Match Overview

With the Blues coming off a big win in Wellington over the Saints, and the Pies coming off a victory on ANZAC Day, what could have been a dreary Friday night match has at least got some life pumped back into it, as the Blues chase their second win of the season at the mighty MCG.

More to come.

 

[Aphrodite]

It's time that we had a win against our biggest rival.

Bring on the FILTH!

 

[HBF]

At this early stage:
Ins: Watson, Judd, Jaksch & Whiley
Outs: Jones, Dick, Rowe, Curnow

 

[HARKER]

If the following are fit and good to go, we'll give it a good shake...

Judd, Menzel, Jaksch and I have a feeling that Smith may get a SUB call-up.....


I don't care for the outs but just need to get that team balance right.
Will be tough for Whiley to get up being that he pulled up sore after a training session.
Take a chance on Sheehan if he's ready???? Probably not yet.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Juddy will be a handy in. Menzel & Jaksch would have to be a show.

How are Thomas & Krooz travelling...........any chance???

Kreuzer may resume in the 2's this week.......would be great.

Thomas another 2-3 away

 

[HBF]

Thomas another 2-3 away

Oh that's great about Krooze.
Will need a while at the Bullants though.

 

[Mentallo]

IN: Judd Jaksch Bobblehead (Watson)
OUT: Dick Rowe/Casboult/Jones (2 of those 3)

Love Menzel but thought his form in the first 2 games was pretty poor.....Well he had a lot of mates as well I guess. So maybe a game at Sandy this week will just give him the nudge he needs. I am sure if he is fit he will come straight in though.

 

[HARKER]

Team I'd love to see out there next week:

Simpson Jamison Tuohy
Sheehan Jaksch Docherty
Yarran Cripps Everitt
Walker Henderson Gibbs
Menzel Kreuzer Thomas

Casboult Judd Murphy

Bell Buckley Byrne Boekhorst/Whiley

No love for Wood???????

Reckon Cas will be setting the alarm early next week.

At this early stage:
Ins: Watson, Judd, Jaksch & Whiley
Outs: Jones, Dick, Rowe, Curnow

Judd if fit is obviously a certainty - Dick the obvious out - did nothing wrong but last in and no credits

Jaksch - not sure if he played in the magoos or not but I would give him a crack based on preseason form and remove Rowe who has looked all at sea (most would however with our ability to turn the ball over and leave the middle open at the same time)

Watson - 3 goals in the wet for a big fellow is a good effort, I thought Jones should be given 5 or 6 games to let him have a crack - not sure we should carry 2 KPFs who can't kick though so Jones should work it out it out in the twos - but if Watson does get a chance - he should get 4 or 5 games

Whiley - I though he probably deserved his spot this week but he has to replace a similar player - none of us want an inside midfielder replacing an outside runner - well I don't - we seem to have enough clearances we need runners - based on that its either Curnow or Carrazo - tough I would say no at the G with 90k for another debutant - we have plenty of guys with less than 50 games - another week in the magoos

Tend to think the only other guys we would want in when fit are:
Kreuzer, Daisy, Byrne, Sheehan, Menzel and Yarran

Guys that should be given some game time include for development/retention decision making:
Graham, Smith, DVR and ....

Question: why was Whiley withdrawn - was it a Customs issue?

 

[TeeJay Blue]

IN - Jaksch, Judd, Menzel, Tutt, Watson

OUT - Ellard (Injured/Omitted), Jamison (Omitted), Rowe (Omitted), Dick (Omitted), Jones (Omitted)

FB - Tuohy, Jaksch, Casboult
HB - Buckley, Docherty, Simpson
C - Cripps, Curnow, Murphy
HF - Bell, Henderson, Menzel
FF - Everitt, Watson, Armfield
R - Wood, Gibbs, Judd
I - Carrazzo, Boekhorst, Walker
SUB - Tutt

Jamison BETTER NOT PLAY!
Rowe out of form. Watson ahead of Jones.
Drop Ellard. Give him a rest.
Judd, Menzel and Tutt should be ready.

Byrne and Whiley stiff, but can't make too many changes.

 

[thylacine60]

Good to see Byrne at the huddle at Port today. Giving his hammy a few rubs. Gave Clem a tap on the arse. Acting like an old hand. Loved it.

Great write up.
While missed due to hamstring tightness/soreness

No way on Sheehan. A week or two from VFL.

 

[zeeCFC]

Out: Curnow, Dick, Ellard
In: Judd, Jaksch, Menzel

Ellard hard to omit, they'll probs take Boek out

 

[Cringle]

One of Rowe, Casboult or Jones has to go. Can't carry three out of form talls.

 

[BM123]

Jones out for me.

Can't play ruck and his kicking isn't much better then Casboults.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Jones out for me.

Can't play ruck and his kicking isn't much better then Casboults.

Can't take marks either. Not sure what he actually brings to the table.

 

[King of Ruin]

One of Rowe, Casboult or Jones has to go. Can't carry three out of form talls.

I'm an inform tall.. #DirtyShitTruck

 

[HyphensBack]

Out: Curnow, Dick, Ellard
In: Judd, Jaksch, Menzel

Ellard hard to omit, they'll probs take Boek out

Nooooooooo - let hope guys get a chance if they have done nothing wrong - keep the Boek!

Is Menzel right to go? If he is not cherry ripe don't risk him - his game is not built around being 60-70% okay and why risk him.
Okay with your Ins but if Jaksch does come back in then I feel we need to take a tall out.

 

[BM123]

Can't take marks either. Not sure what he actually brings to the table.

Agreed. I wouldn't think twice about trading Casboult as well at this early...

Can't afford talls to be passengers.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

We've won by 40 points. Three or four changes will not happen. Judd will replace Dick if he's right to go.

 

[HBF]

Can't take marks either. Not sure what he actually brings to the table.

I'm not Casboults biggest fan, but at least he can mark it. Jones needs to be dropped.

 

[Cringle]

We've won by 40 points. Three or four changes will not happen. Judd will replace Dick if he's right to go.

Against the wooden spoon favourites...

We have best 22 players to come back in.
