I don't mind the backline and the forward line we have picked. Midfield drops off a lot after Cripps and Walsh.

Voss needs to coordinate rotations properly which is something he has never done well. If your midfield is slow or not great quality, you absolutely must keep those players fresh. Gives them a chance to finish strongly, gives the team a chance to win the game.

I'd be curious to see Cincotta played in the middle as an offensive player. He's got the pace and the aggression we could need. He'd chase and tackle pretty well. We won't do it. You can tell our coaching group are super opinionated and rigid. Which if fine, unless you are short on ability and need to find something.

I'm really interested in the bolded, as definitive statements

Have people forgotten last year, or some of the changes we have made with Williams, Cincotta, Harry and other rotations through the middle?

Yet, next we'll have someone suggest we should throw Lil Durds or Fogarty back.

Not having a go or anything but we beat the side you lost too last weekend by 66 points 3 weeks ago.

Not having a go, but we’ll be way too strong in every position for you to handle. Your effort will be brave but…..

 

[BRADLESTICKS]

Cincotta to Sicily same job he did on Stewart against the cats if they move Sicily forward good it makes their backline a lot weaker. Looks like Owies as sub going by that bench.

Yeap, Cincotta to Sicily is a great idea

If they move him forward, plenty of others he can negate

Has been brilliant as a CHB this season. Great foot skills and strong aerially, stats wise shows this in terms of his defensive performance but especially off the intercept.

One that has really lifted.

What happened last week on Hogan? Or was a different defender on him?

 

[Blue Reaper]

If Young comes in for Charlie, I’d prefer him back & Kemp forward. But I get the need for Young to ruck. Really hope Owies isn’t sub.

Great to see Zac & Cowan back. Team is well balanced.

 

[RedFury]

Pitto has to be much better than last week. Just has to be.
