Now I'm not saying anything about those two, just we need another KPF. And when Logue comes back?

What’s the plan for the below when our A+ grade superstar CHB turns into an every other week key forward?

l want him as our swingman but he starts at CHB. If needed then he goes to CHF...ATM his best football is playing on the backline so leave him there..

 

[Spud11]

He is awesome as a forward but damn if it means he’s gonna get some continuity in his footy, keep him in defence. No coincidence that as soon as he’s gone forward, he’s banged up and injured again.

Who can we put forward to have impact?

The swinging needs to stop, atm at back, he is darcy moore.

Agree l like him down back but if ever we needed someone up forward and our backine is going ok then he would be the one to move forward rather than Logue, Corr or Dawson....

 

[Devington]

TBH it wouldn't be awful by any means, while we have gaps all over the place, having him swing from one end to the other when a serious issue arises. Try to have him predominantly play one role of course, but if, for example, the defence is holding up while no one can take a mark up forward... just do the obvious.

Only if we utilise him like leppitsch at lions under matthews.

Teakle is performing perfectly to expectations: being competitive in the ruck, 2 contested marks a game, a goal a game. This what you expect from your resting ruck. We need to move on from Pink, who apart from competing offers no real weapons.

Trade or draft a legitimate 2nd forward has to be top 2 priority this off season.

He plays the same back or forward, he can get injured anywhere. His shoulder was done while playing back, we had two KP defenders go down last week.

Did Baker tunnel him about 4 minutes before 3/4 time ?

Yep.

 

[harper2bastinac]

Play him next week as we have a game to win, then wrap him in cotton wool for the last two matches

 

[gerry101101]

Does anyone actually know what's wrong with his shoulder?

Stuffed it carrying a whole backline on it this year.

Prefer to rest Charlie if there is the slightest risk that he aggravate his injuries. Winning one more game won't matter in the greater scheme of things.

We can get by with Corr and Dawson against the hawks. Their four slick, skilled and quick smalls will be the worry and how we cover them.

 

[Frank Thring]

He definitely plays forward for us next year. No brainer. Logue and the Dawson brothers down back.

This year is less about winning and more about clarko swinging the magnets and giving the young players ample games to prove themselves for contracts.

Corr?

 

[ferball]

Corr?

If you are wondering he's contracted till the end of next year.

No I was questioning the poster on leaving Corr out of his defensive mix for next year

Fair enough. Corr's a better player than he gets credit for on here.

 

[Only Forwards]

Most players are better players than they get credit for on here where even facial expressions are hyper analysed by lay people who little to no connection to a player beyond seeing them through a screen or from more than 100m away.

 

[Frank Thring]

From round 8, he's been awesome. Hardly gets beaten one on one, his disposal is clean, doesn't panic and has become the general down back. I rate him

 

[viccles]

Get him to 100 games

 

[ChairmanZia]

What's wrong with corr, dawson and pink in the backline?

 

[Horizons_00]

does anyone know exactly what injury he has?

A dicky everything?
