Yeah, those slow high kicks do my head in, the coaches surely have highlighted to the players how easy those kicks are for defenders to intercept. Don't get whi it still happens.The key to West Coast is keeping the ball low so their backline can't intercept easily. They are poor below their feet in the back half - that's what Port did to beat them a few weeks ago.
Unfortunately we love kicking the ball high to opposition players so unless we can change that this week, we will be extremely vulnerable against them.
Yeah 0 tackles and 5 possies last week. Longer stats.
Don’t get the dropping of Marsh... brought in for his first game in 3 years, played out of position and then dropped when we need size?! Like he’s a backmen... play him there.
Your right Long should have been dropped too ;pClark most tackles last week with 6 and Long with 0 tackles 1 kick 4 HB
Probably not but I don’t think playing him forward is of any use when he’s been brought in and played VFL down back... he’s actually pretty quick for his size, just think it’s a waste having him down forward.We've got three tall backs in the side, do we really need another one?
Yeah, I see where you're coming from. But I tend to think that the Club realistically thought last week's game - against the Giants, away, with all our injuries - was a pawn that needed to be sacrificed. So they may have just brought those guys in, and left others out, for other purposes: conditioning, match-practice, etc.
For example, I could easily understand the club saying that getting Joyce to learn playing on Cameron, and giving Brown a joke game at Sandy, would ultimately prove better for both players, and for the team in the long run. Brown seemed remarkably laid-back for the Zebras by all reports - maybe that was deliberate, so he'd have a chance to freshen up a little before going against the West Coast forwards like Kennedy.
Which defender from our current group would you drop to fit in Hind?
Haven’t read through all the pages so not sure if it’s been spoken about.
All three inclusions have earned their call ups but my concern is how it effects our flexibility with structure. Phillips will have to play primarily on the wing and Dunstan on ball.
Means Acres and Sinclair get pushed forward even more than they already are. Potentially even Billings has to go forward a bit as well.
He’d want to start finding the football or people will get a chance to see his xfactor at sandy.
Think Kent would want to get his goal kicking radar happening.
Yes, he’s done some things around the ground, but 2.4 last week is not what he was recruited for.
Lucky we got Benny Dixon on his case to sort that out.
What does Hind have to do to get a chance ? Really confused.
Personally speaking, Hind was a class above in the VFL last week.Surprised to see Phillips in there. Not really sure he offers a lot.
What does Hind have to do to get a game?
Well and good picking Hind to get some extra speed , but can he defend and has he laid a tackle in the VFL - pretty sure if he was that good he would of been brought in before Paton.Which defender from our current group would you drop to fit in Hind?
Good luck for the weekend guys.
Who do you think Steele will go to? Gaff, Yeo or Shuey?
