Went to the game and thought there were more positives than negatives.
The negatives:
1. Williams & Higgins - can understand lack of touch but cannot accept appalling second efforts and in somes cases first efforts. Both players need to play in the reserves and understand that they need to...
From this side the only changes I would like to see are Goodes and Gia. No pace. If the side is to take another step I just don't think they are the types. In their place? Wood, young, hunter, stringer, hrovat?
I have either been a player or supporter of the EDFL for over 40 years. There has never been a zone format.
Confirmed that Abers are attempting to field a second side to keep the comp alive.
I think that Harbrow will move into the midfield rotations next year.
He has had his learning curve year.
History suggests a minimun of 3 changes possibly 4.
From the 22 last Friday night I think that Callen, Eagle and Welsh will need to make room for new blood. Possibly Hahn and Gia...
I think aker is a huge loss. His skills and team play have bee outstanding in the first three rds.
Murphy coming in is a bonus even if only half fit. I think Hahn has found it difficult to play the CHF role alone.
Hopefully with Murphy taking on some of this pressure and attracting the...
I only had the radio to listen to the game hence it is difficult for me to give informed slaps and sledges. However there are two things I need to comment on from this discussion:
1. Gia, as one poster put it I am warming to him. I too have been a bit of a critic of Gia but it does now seem...
I agree with this, in particular a role for Ward on the forward line.
My major concern for HIggins is not his natural talent but as Old school put it, has he got the stamina/engine to deliver in the midfield over a sustained period of time.
Did mine and the kids memberships last week.
Must thank Simon Dalrymple who gave me and the kids a quick tour of the facilities after I bought the memberships. This happenned by chance when we met him in the carpark.
During the tour my boy was rapped when Rocket walked out of his office...
Wight is 23 years of age. Cox of West Coast did not make an impact until he was 24. Not saying he will be a Cox but I do think we should hang onto him for one more year.
For this Friday as per last Friday I think we are a tall short in the backline and I think he could do a role in the back...
As per last week I think we are a tall short in the backline. I know he is much maligned but Wight is the only one. By putting Wight in we are freeing up shaggy to give us more run from the half back line.
I have no problem with Ward coming in at least he doesn't mind a hard ball.
Who to...
Geez, I think I gave several other reasons for Rays inclusion??
In regards to Hargrave, the theme of this part of the thread is whether we need an extra tall in the backline.
If we don't bring in a player of Wights ilk, Hargrave may need to play on a major tall. The cost maybe the run and...
Long time no hear Mr Walker.
As usual I pretty well agree with your thoughts.
Ray has proven MCG finals experience, can rack up +20 possies, has done ok when tagging and can break lines. Kicking could improve though.
Hudson must play and hopefully at his early season form.
With...
