What needs to happen

Swans in their own territory. They are quicker and they are experienced. We need scoreboard pressure and we need to win the clearances. Anything else and it could be a long night. We don't have a midfielder who can go with Heeney, who is in red hot form, so Hewett being the most defensive of our midfielders, gets the first go.

Cerra out has me feeling really pessimistic about this one.

Sydney at the SCG will be the hardest road trip in footy. Have to try and keep our percentage healthy.
We've matched up with them fairly well the last few years. McCartin may still be out with concussion too which would be a massive factor
 
Out: Cerra, Durdin
In: Carrol/Cunningham/Moir/Binns

Sydney a strong physical team and Ollie although runs all day gets pushed around too easily and once he tires a bit his brain slows down with his decision making and skill execution, so I think he should be the sub.

Durdin a good month in VFL minimum to figure out how to find the ball.

The ins will be interesting.
 
Surely Cnningham needs a block of games in the 2's before getting another game. Big mistake playing him last week. It will be interesting to see who puts their hand up tomorrow night. Big opportunity

Ollie needs to do some serious strength and power work over the off season. Great runner in terms of endurance but he's got the agility of Ben Brown at the moment and is running at the speed of Tomahawk.
 
Durdin has to go it’s the equivalent of playing one short.

Try Boyd forward at least he can lay a tackle.
Dunno how many times it has to be said.... He's a gun where he is. Leave him. He was a vfl unlisted player not getting a look in anywhere as a small forward. Why tf would you change that.......
 
Ollie will probably survive with Cerra out and Durdin under similar pressure with less tickets, but he is currently a liability in these big games.

Would seriously consider giving Cottrell the wing permanently, Cuningham or hopefully Fog into the side, and let him go back to the 2s and dominate for a bit.

Nothing wrong with having second year blues but plenty wrong with carrying those players whilst we are playing the best teams. Hewett was punished for being slow by foot and Ollie has been just as bad.
 
I thought he once again took too many risks - trying to take marks when he should’ve spoiled and taking on tacklers within range of goal - if Marchbank is ready to go next week I reckon he will come in for Kemp.

I've been as critical as anyone with Kemp, but his last month of footy has been sound ish.

Stayed within his lane, focus on man first, and has attacked the contest with aggression

Yes, he will make bad judgement calls, but he has continued to minimise those errors over recent times

Yes, still a watch and see

Was super frustrating watching him try and take mark of the year when he could’ve easily put a fist through the ball allowing Petty to mark it. Then a second instance not long after on the wing that was less costly but still made that same mistake.

I am a big believer in Kemp and I think his attacking nature is what will make him a great CHB in time so I want to stick with him. Gaining plenty of valuable experience which he won’t get at VFL level, still only 30 games into his career so he has plenty of improvement left but he needs to continue working on when to play offensively and when to just kill a contest. Even that dangerous tackle moment was quite arrogant at that point in the game and on another day a ball in his hands turns into a Melbourne goal. He will get there.

Cuningham was very good offensively last week. Three really nice goal assists. I think the M/C were a bit disappointed in his defence though. Hopefully he can play well in the reserves this week and push his game forward. Don't be surprised if he plays against the swans if he does well in the reserves.
