Voss has been trying to unpick the 7/8/7 “rule” since he started in this role.
He’s been trying 7/9/6 and last week I reckon we were very close to 6/10/6 (mids: Cripps, Docherty, Walsh, Kennedy, Hewett, Acres, Hollands, Cottrell, Cerra, Pittonet)
This all due to preferring a highly contested style in the midfield and results in guys who are best in the midfield ending up playing the majority of game time either at half forward or half back.
It’s why - in my view - Docherty should play permanent half back and we need to find a more effective half forward from that group or drop one of our mids.

Would love to see Kennedy play 50/50 HF/Mid. Think he would be great in that role - very nice hands on the lead and a great set shot

Agreed. Has the tools to contribute as a forward. I’d rather see Kennedy 50-50 mid/fwd than Cerra 50/50 mid/back. Move Doc back to half back permanently.

 

[dumb]

Must be tough for Ed Curnow, knowing that one brother got all the height, looks, talent and money.

charlie gets all the goals too

 

[Curnowhan]

I'll raise you a Simon Beaumont

Fair point, although I fear you only get one Luke Godden in a lifetime, and Simon got ours

By a dozen angry Boy Scouts??

Just two (one?).

If Ed plays I can only assume it is to tag De Goey, Daicos has been getting heaps of ball but its De Goey that has been hurting most, Hewett was supposed to come in and be our defensive mid, he hasn't been effective this year as a pure mid so we should have him go back to basics with a stopping role, then Ed becomes surplus to requirements.

Apparently de goey scores poorly when daicos is tagged compared to the opposite.

I can see why that would make sense but do you have a source for it?

Read a stats post on Twitter yesterday. I’ll see if I can find it.

Edit

 

[luke livingston seagull]

Boyd is in is the hot word

I guess Cinc is out then.

plus Ed(sub) = 11

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Fmd ... Ed comes into the starting 22... Hewett the sub.

At least Boyd comes in for Cincotta...

 

[Coona Blues]

I guess Cinc is out then.

Still in my (Fantasy) team.

Would be frustrating if Boyd, who has been average in the twos replaces him.

Edit: Might be time to trade

 

[carlton_99]

Like the Boyd inclusion but don't really get why we keep picking contested mids as the sub

 

[Mezzoculo]

Collingwood a good chance to name a ruck as sub

 

[Arr0w]

Would have kept Cincotta in the side, with Boyd, who does add some mongrel and pace

 

[SolGoodman]

Georgey hasn’t set the world on fire I know…but Ed in for him? FMD indeed… happy with Boyd back though.

 

[Aphrodite]

Them (for now) …

 

[dragonsblues]

We’ve put in 4 ordinary performances in 5 weeks and the match committee have run out of ideas.

Hewett who is slower than my grandmother as sub? Ed who is cooked in the 22?

Makes zero sense.

 

[carlton_99]

Collingwood a good chance to name a ruck as sub

True they could go with Cameron

 

[Curnowhan]

True they could go with Cameron

It wouldn’t surprise me if one or more of their players who have been crook don’t get up and Cameron is in the 22 (for Johnson).

Also, what’s a Harvey Harrison?

 

[Blue By Blood]

E. Curnow out - Fisher In
Cincotta as the sub.

If those moves happened the team balance would look right. Team looks good on paper. Cerra, Walsh on ball. Running power on the wings with Acres, Holland, Cottrell. Dash and foot skills with Boyd. Just like a little more X factor up forward through a third small/flank.

Sounds like a Wish-version of a Harley-Davidson
