Round 19 Changes vs Carlton

[mike91]

In - Walters, Ballantyne, Sandilands, Hill
Out - Sylvia, Griffin, Taberner, not sure on the last one, probably Morabito given Walters is highly likely going to be the sub and Morabito only had 4d in four quarters.

What are your predictions?

Out: the whole team....

It was a bad team performance.

I don't want to single out individuals, so I'll abstain from directing blame in this case.

Lyon will make the appropriate changes.

I hope this thread doesn't disintegrate into a scapegoating exercise.

I'm worried about McPharlin.
He should have been playing on Riewoldt but it was left to Dawson while the tall deep forward in Stanley ran amok against our deep tall. Luke couldn't run.

So early for this but Taberner,Griff,Sylvia and Mora out

Silvagni is going to have to step up methinks. Macca is almost cooked.

Agreed, but I figured we're going to be talking about this for the next few weeks, so may as well start the thread now.

Out - Sylvia, Tabs, Griff

I think we should stick with Mora. We know what he's capable of and need his run in the finals. Play Mora as the sub, give MDB a full game

Yeah, judging by today's game, Mora would be better suited as the sub for now. Getting 15 touches in 30 minutes last week as opposed to getting only 4 in a whole game this week just proves he is not quite ready to be in the starting 21.

He didn't play the last qtr. Obviously had a set back and must now be in doubt.

Or maybe just resting him since they knew we weren't going to win.

 

[Taylor]

I'm hoping they put Luke in cotton wool once they decided the game was gone.

 

[Pegasaur]

Guys the loss was bad but I think it was probably necessary (although I would have preferred it came against someone decent). We have looked a little complacent in recent weeks and I feel that we were heading down the path of a poor game.

My point is let's not meltdown until we play Carlton, because I believe that we won't be seeing that Fremantle come to play again this season.

No I saw the doc go to Ross at 3 qtr time, Ross walked back onto the field and told Mayne to go to FB.

I agree totally. Mcpharlin looked very average

 

[calaisking]

Yeah, Mcpharlin could possibly announce retirement in the coming weeks. He's body doesn't seem to be holding up and I'm almost certain he won't play next year.

Hope your right but RTB was saying during the week he needed the game time. Could really struggle to have him for the finals if he has done his quad or something again.
