AFL team news: Martin returns for game 150

A milestone for a returning Blue among four changes to the Round 21 team.

[Soapy V]

Our sub has always come from the bench this year so looks like either Cincotta, Hewett, Kennedy, Owies or O.Hollands

so you're saying there's a chance?

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Weitering and Kemp both ran 15k's

Weiters running 15ks in a game surprises me.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Get the feeling it'll be Hewett or Kennedy sub...

Young going out just had to happen. The bloke isn't up to it and selecting him purely on height would be a mistake.

Plus I doubt Voss forgot about his performance last game against Collingwood... he was dropped straight after that one and we never saw him again until last week...

 

[Arr0w]

More than a bit. This is F#ck1ng rediculous. Boyd has been bog average and Cotters should have gone long before Cow, who has been doing an outstanding job back there. Boyd had better play the game of his life.

Not Happy.

I really like Cowan, going to be a lock soon enough, but lacking confidence to take the game on

Ultimately, he was dropped because his defensive game has fallen away a tad recently

 

[Kernafides]

Owies as the sub would just be stupid....name me a team in the comp who would start their third highest goal scorer as sub... makes no sense

 

[Benaly28]

I wonder who the sub will be. Looks like it's out of Kennedy, Hewett Cincotta Hollands or Owies

Ollie or Owies

[Just Kreuzing]

Owies for sub?

Looks like that will be the case with Motlop given every opportunity in his role and Martin back in.

 

[AceAndy]

Does the sub have to be one of the interchange named players ? Can you pick one of the 18 named rather than the interchange players ??

 

[M_I_G]

If Hewett is sub I’ll fume
Owies will be relegated to sub again, punished for the flying shot at goal he took last week from 50 instead of passing

 

[BlueTongue]

I really like Cowan, going to be a lock soon enough, but lacking confidence to take the game on

Ultimately, he was dropped because his defensive game has fallen away a tad recently

I thought the opposite. He's been getting back to assist Saad/Kemp a fair bit I thought. If anything his offensive run has suffered.

 

[blueboots]

No real surprises with selection

Closest call would have been Kemp or Young, but suspect Kemp takes McStay and Weitering takes the resting ruckman

Kemp will find himself isolated a lot , think there is feeling (and some evidence)he is very average 1 v 1

 

[ESKIE]

Owies as the sub would just be stupid....name me a team in the comp who would start their third highest goal scorer as sub... makes no sense

I 100% agree let them try & matchup

More likely Martin

 

[BlueLocke]

Kennedy sub I reckon. Don’t mind it.

Martin and his craft make the forward line 10% better.

 

[kreuze_missile]

Cowan is a bit stiff being dropped.

Gotta try something different down there.

Backline is awful.

 

[Arr0w]

Kemp will find himself isolated a lot , think there is feeling (and some evidence)he is very average 1 v 1

He has been poor 1 v 1, but it's not capability, it's mindset to play a role

McStay is to quick for Young and Weitering, hence why Kemp remains

If I was the Pies, I'd isolate McStay deep on Kemp

Weitering will be the key here, needs to zone so he can impact a contest while helping Kemp

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Weiters running 15ks in a game surprises me.

Yep, it is hard to believe...

Must’ve hacked into the system.

Can’t see that being accurate.

 

[Wickzki]

Disappointed for Cowan.

I believe Ollie goes in as the sub. They need to treat this like a final.

I think they might give our backline some matchup headaches. Not certain there's an ideal matchup for either Weitering or McGovern. Fearful that they're going to turn us around quite a lot. Newman, Saad and Boyd really under the pump this week. Hopefully Cotts and Acres can help them with Elijah pushing up too.

 

[COACH25]

Great in’s for us
Ollie hollands as sub would be best for us.
Same as last year.
Cerra back in the middle.

 

[COACH25]

Rare that endurance players are used as the sub

He was used as sub in the back end of last year and it work.

 

[JJBagger]

Kemp will find himself isolated a lot , think there is feeling (and some evidence)he is very average 1 v 1

I think his issue is dealing with opponents bigger than him. Hes a more than solid interceptor and reads the play reasonably well, just don’t get him into a battle of strength against a bigger opponent

 

[Blue_Fusion]

I reckon since they've named them alphabetically on the bench and named Kennedy last, it'll be MK

Makes sense when you think about it, Martin will take his forward role.

 

[Wickzki]

Weiters running 15ks in a game surprises me.

It doesn't really for me. He's constantly moving from one side of the ground to the other and back again when we have possession. Then gets back onto his opponent. Watching him live properly (was sitting right near the 50 at the Geelong game) was an eye-opening experience to how much ground he actually covers.

Edit: Saw the image was from that game. Not surprised.

 

[BigFrizz36]

He has been poor 1 v 1, but it's not capability, it's mindset to play a role

McStay is to quick for Young and Weitering, hence why Kemp remains

If I was the Pies, I'd isolate McStay deep on Kemp

Weitering will be the key here, needs to zone so he can impact a contest while helping Kemp

I think that people get blinded by Kemp because he is so good when he can just run and jump at the ball. Just really struggles in bodying up and when he is bodied up. This has really been exacerbated by the amount of time that teams have in delivering the ball forward currently. As you say, teams have just been playing three talls up forward knowing we will struggle to control all three.

 

[Benaly28]

Kennedy sub I reckon. Don’t mind it.

Martin and his craft make the forward line 10% better.

Not a hope in hell Kennedy is sub.
