Pretty winnable game IMO.
Crows missing rankine and himmelberg.
Rankine yes, Himmelberg of the Crom variety stinks though

Culley doesnt have a spot in the team, he can sit in the WAFL until we get an injury and hopefully another club is keen on him and willing to offer something reasonable in a trade at the end of the year
During their peaks I swear to god JK and JD never had a set position and they both interchanged between FF and CHF. Reckon Once Allen is back to fitness form it will be like that as well
Not knowing much about either of them, are Dewar and Brockman similar players? That is, smallish forward?I like the look of him too.
But give him a bit of rope on the breakout game, he’s only played 1 and a fraction of a game and done ok so far.
If you're including all positions, Hough is easily in the top 5.Culley will be our 6th best young player behind Reid, Ginbey, Chesser, Long & hewett

Maric (and arguably J Williams) have also shown more promise than Chesser and Culley IMO.Im not including hough as hes basically an established player (actually forgot about hough)
I’d agree, but would like to keep developing all those mentioned. There’s often a few in a great team that take a little longer but are worth it. Like Shep in the first part of his career, kind of looked a bust, but obvious talent and then a gun.Maric (and arguably J Williams) have also shown more promise than Chesser and Culley IMO.
Would actually like to see a bit more of Culley in a team that isn't being flogged with half the senior players running around half fit with injuries.Culley will be our 6th best young player behind Reid, Ginbey, Chesser, Long & hewett
Out: Sheed
In: Yeo
Absolutely not, Sheed did a great job on Clarry.
Could come in for L.Edwards more like
Does this push Ginbey back to a wing? Looked really good at the coal face on the weekend, particularly early.

I think we could play Kelly more forward to allow more time for Gibney in the guts ( plays better there than on the wing).
For me:
Out: Ledwards
In: Yeo
Sub: JJ
Out of Sub: Dewar
TKs body language has been so up and down this season. He seems to thrive whenever Yeo is off/out. I'm not sure how he'd take the demotion to HFF for Yeo and Ginbey to play more centre minutes.
Well its Yeo coming back in, somebody has to move out. Its not going to be Reid or KellyDoes this push Ginbey back to a wing? Looked really good at the coal face on the weekend, particularly early.
He will be wanting games very soon. Who does he come in for this year? or next year? hes probably too big and slow to be part of the mid/fwd rotation when we are already flush with tall forwards and hes not taking huge midfield time over Reid, Hewett, Ginbey or Kelly in the next 2 years even if Yeo isnt thereYou don't just push someone out who's showing promise, when your 2 senior mids aren't far off retirement themselves.
Especially someone who can play both forward and mid.
I cant imagine doing that much running would be in Culleys wheelhouse, maybe the MC see different.Hard to see how he could do much worse than Edwards on the wing tbh. Culley’s slow but so is Edwards - at least Culley could provide a marking option.
Not that I think Culley should be brought in to play wing necessarily
Kelly is 29, probably at least 3 years left maybe more if we are winning games and he can rotate off a wing or HFF.You don't just push someone out who's showing promise, when your 2 senior mids aren't far off retirement themselves.
Especially someone who can play both forward and mid.
I was already assuming Yeo takes Sheeds spot, Hewett takes LEdwards spot, JJ out for Long or Brockman, theres not really anybody else youd remove from the midfield/HFF rotation. We still have to fit in our first pick next year in the team too, if its a midfielder then its even harder to fit Culley in.This is an alarmingly bad take. You are basically saying who does a still slightly underdone Culley come in for this week - or else he’s trade bait. First off we have no idea what his ceiling is as he’s had an injury interrupted & short time at the club.
Kelly / Yeo / Sheed will not play forever. Maybe the newly invigorated negating mid role that Sheed played on the weekend against Clarry is a useful one that Culley could play successor to, maybe sooner than we think.
Could be our next Reddo or Pridda and has little trade value yet due to limited exposure and you are thinking out now?
No way I’m trading Culley right now if I’m West Coast
Reid, Hewett, Ginbey, Maric, Long, Chesser, potentially JWilliams, along with whoever we get int eh draft next year.Culley will be our 6th best young player behind Reid, Ginbey, Chesser, Long & hewett
Hewett will be slow burn through WAFL post bye. Long out for season. Dewar fringe but improving, Culley also been used as Sub before due to his fwd ability.I was already assuming Yeo takes Sheeds spot, Hewett takes LEdwards spot, JJ out for Long or Brockman, theres not really anybody else youd remove from the midfield/HFF rotation. We still have to fit in our first pick next year in the team too, if its a midfielder then its even harder to fit Culley in.
Where do you see Culley coming in?
I think he will want time in the 1s, and the other thing to consider is we will need to start either trading guys out or delisting young players.Even if Culley is just good depth, you don't win premierships having no depth.
