relax, I'm here.........

And

 

[BlueTang]

Good inclusions, feel Dow should be an emergency though. Prefer we persist with him more than Fogarty… sure they know what they are doing, all that matters is we win and start to bring our best form back

 

[windows1]

Don't like seeing him there either, but of late, when he does go to centre bounces, we as a collective slow the opposition exit or start winning more than when we have had pure inside mids. It's the reason I would like to see more cameos from more agile types like Doc, Martin, Saad, Durdin at centre bounces

I like the concept of Durdin having a cameo in there. He’s robust physically and doesn’t fumble at all.

 

[windows1]

If Freo get as many looks at I50 as Richmond did, we'll get a bad result.

76 inside 50s to the Tigers, their season average is 57 (ours is 56).

That must be fixed....

Don’t blaze out of the backline. Wings need to stay wide and give a short option. Need to use the short option then cut back through the middle. We panic kicked a LOT in the wet last week coming out of the backline. Won’t happen this week.

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

I know people hate LOB on here, but he has 24 disposals and 1 goal 1. He wasn’t getting dropped for god sake.

Watch what Kingy and Montagna point out, then watch the replay LOB and Martin were deserving of being dropped

 

[thylacine60]

And

that has to be enough!

has great hands and agility.

 

[Arr0w]

None of Newnes obrien and Newman were dropped.

Never going to be dropped this week

Watch what Kingy and Montagna point out, then watch the replay LOB and Martin were deserving of being dropped

LOB has been great, I do concede that he can get quite loose in the contest and lose his handle on the footy - or as the layman would say 'he ****en s**t himself' but his left boot is an absolute weapon and he can run up and down those wings all day.

Unrelated but I am pumped to see Honey in. I reckon our forward rotation looks pretty bloody good and would be first preference at this point.

F: Fisher, Curnow, Owies
FF: Durdin, McKay, Honey

Rotations:
JSOS (RUC/FWD)
TDK (RUC/FWD)

Martin is a little more dynamic than Owies but he just can't stay on the park. Cuningham is a weapon too but we're yet to see his body hold up to the rigours for an extended period.

I also think Tabs may be a late out with Meek to replace. Giving him every chance to get up though.

 

[morningbrown]

Very happy that Honey is back in the side, shouldn't leave it now except for injury.

 

[Arr0w]

Changes predictable again. Good to see Honey and Kemp in the side

 

[Schoonerman]

None of Newnes obrien and Newman were dropped.

You need to get away from the smoke from ol love if you think Newman should be dropped

 

[Benaly28]

Dow not even emergency...

Say. No. More.

Sweet. They got team selection right.

Honey adds a new dimension to our forward line. I know Martin is injured but he hasn’t contributed much this year.

Pressure is on our key mids to step up this week. Last week they got lot of possessions but really let us down in the centre contests.

Looking forward to them bouncing back this week.

 

[marcmurphy3]

I don't think who is and isn't emergency really means anything aside from who we want as dub. Wouldn't read to much it.

 

[spry]

Never going to be dropped this week

That’s why I said it

Monumentally stupid, we’ve been smashed in the middle for weeks- let’s do nothing and it will fix itself- especially now that the back line is depleted, let’s set them up for more punishment.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

No need to panic. I’ve got this.

gee, I dunno, kneejerk commentator on narrow focus sports forum or panel with 1000s of games experience playing, coaching, developing, selecting - hmmmm

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Stocker as emergency gives more flexibility...

 

[Benaly28]

Picking Dow in the team to ‘fix’ the midfield is not the answer if some here are referring to.

Need to move on from him cause it looks like Voss has.

No need to panic. I’ve got this.

What? The look? The power? The music in you? Sunshine in a cloudy day? The whole world in your hands?

What?

Think you might be right sadly.
Lately I have thought imagine if we traded our pick 3 (Dow) and 5 (SPS) at the time(s), for a couple of decent 21 year old players wanting a fresh start, we would have felt a lot less pain over the past few years. Guess you can’t get them all right

Matthew Kennedy's ghost being preferred is...interesting.
