Opinion Round 12 Changes vs. Brisbane (Cox to debut)

[YelloMit]

Post your thoughts here.

 

[westy1]

Taberner
Out
Worst game I've ever seen played by an individual

 

[Sir Deadly]

Taberner and Griffin out
Logue and Sandi/Darcy in

 

[Deanismyhero]

life after sandi is a worrying prospect

 

[Sweetback]

Fyfe is a total liability at the moment

 

[DMan 11]

Our dearth of tall fwd's is obvious when tabs doesn't step up - who else do we play there ??

Griffin out - Sean Darcy in

 

[go_the_dockers]

Fyfe is a total liability at the moment

He is left so much to do by the 15 people he is carrying, with no support that he tries to do too much himself. Was solid today.

 

[Danny82]

Out griffin Taberner Sutcliffe
In Sandilands / Darcy, sheridan, Logue

 

[Dirty_banchez]

Quit bombing the ****ing ball. We are not in Baghdad.

 

[Sweetback]

He is left so much to do by the 15 people he is carrying, with no support that he tries to do too much himself. Was solid today.

Maybe I missed something but I didn't see him do one good thing today.

 

[Banker]

As much people hate Sheridan we actually need him in the team.

Sutcliffe is garbage, why we persist with him I never will know. He is Suban 2.0.

 

[PowerToThePurpl]

Out: Griffin, Sutcliffe, Taberner.
In: Darcy, Johannison Sheridan, M. McGovern Collins.

No point sending Sandi up to Queensland, might as well give him an extended rest, Griffin has to go though. Sutcliffe is a turnover king and Sheridan ain't much better but he's still an upgrade. Taberner was excused for the last 2 weeks in the wet but absolutely killed us today, couldn't take a mark to save his life.
Think the squad needs the bye to hit to catch their breathe.

 

[TheMcManusNose]

Give me Sheridan and his one or two bad errors per game over Sutcliffe and his nothingness. At least he runs all day unlike half the team.

Sandi or Darcy in for Griffin, whoever is fit.

Tabs, who else is there but **** me if you can't drop a player after that... throw Logue in maybe if you want a tall or just go small and let's play Deluca.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Out: Griffin, Sutcliffe
In: Sandi, someone else (Not Sheridan)

Tabs to be given a rocket and another chance.

 

[Cobbler]

Taberner and Hughes with some absolute shockers, but Hughes was reasonable, but his fails were epic.

I've been a big believer in Tabs, but he was beyond horrible today. The poor handball to Grey and his effort on the wing leading to Hoskin's goal were just career ending type moments.

All of that said, I can't understand our starts. Incredibly flat and the tickets to fight back finally ran out today.

Even that said Brad Hill kicks that goal running into goal and scores are level and we might pull off another amazing win.

That was the moment and might be season defining, in terms of finals.

 

[go_the_dockers]

Griffin out, Griffin was better this week against one of the best rucks in the comp, but I would love for Darcy to have a run.

Taberner - Lacks a bit of class.
Sutcliffe - His skills killed us

In
Darcy.
Nyhuis
Sheridan ??

Gee our depth is poor. Balic could come in, if he trains all week. We still have at least 1 more tough year before we get 30 good players on our list. At the moment we have about 15.

 

[Banker]

Tabs is a supposed running machine, yet the guy is off the pace the whole game.

 

[sportsmaniac89]

Out: Weak as piss football
In: Hard tackling football

 

[electricfeel]

Tabs might play his token monsterous game next week against Brisbane though

 

[believe_it]

Taberner - I actually feel bad for the guy. A complete mare today. Its like we pitched one of those blow-up things with the wavy arms in the forwardline.
Sutcliffe - you know maybe he didn't have too bad a game over all - i couldn't tell you - but I have seen him get the ball run out of defense and kick it straight to the opposition too many times now

 

[Outshined]

Keep the rebuild going. Sad to see Griff so cooked, but it'll be a good to see Darcy play.

Curious to see if Collins is in with a shout. Maybe Logue in for Tabs but that seems a bit counter-intuitive, especially as Tabs is technically still part of the inexperienced brigade - I assume we're using this year to figure out if he'll make it or not.

 

[Dirty_banchez]

As much people hate Sheridan we actually need him in the team.

Sutcliffe is garbage, why we persist with him I never will know. He is Suban 2.0.

Sheridan is vanilla slice mate. We've already got enough of them.

 

[kingswood71]

I will put my boots on if it means Griff misses....havent played ruck in 20 years, but I dont think I would do any worse

 

[Banker]

Sheridan is vanilla slice mate. We've already got enough of them.

There is different type of vanilla players.

Sheridan actually turns up most weeks and can run out a game.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Out: Griff, Tabs, Sutcliffe
In: Sandi if fit, otherwise Darcy (maybe rest Sandi from the long trip to Brisbane anyway??) / Sheridan / Deluca

Yes we'd be smaller in the forward line, but against Brisbane at the Gabba that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

I suspect D Pearce and G Ibbotson are likely to come back in ahead of Deluca unfortunately...

Whatever the changes in personnel, we need to get back to stoppage structures and proper tackling. And maybe even learn how to shepherd??
