had 0 goals over 4 games. This week he kicked 5. You back your best players to fight through a patch of poor form.

Well said

I back Coxy to return to his best form this week. Let him play!

 

[3rdMan]

I did say best players But yes, Cox is a chance to stay in if we think he's still the right player to have in the 22. The coaches may well back him in to find form. We'll see.

 

[sr36]

I also don’t like Jamie playing as a “tall” as it allows the opposition to play an appropriate opponent on him. He’s better playing on small defenders and beer them in air then he is at playing on bigger opponents and beating them on the ground.

Elliott's had talls on him a bit over the month he blitzed. With Elliott, you ideally want someone he can beat on the lead - height not such an issue

 

[3rdMan]

Elliott didn't exactly have a problem with his opponent against Carlton, mainly his kicking boots. Should have had 3 or 4.

He can in the vfl

Back your best players, not struggling fringe ones

2 goals in 5 games. Hasn't kicked a goal in 4 of those 5 games.

Started to become concerned about his form.

 

[swoop42]

In the space of a season he's gone from career best form to now struggling.

The easy answer is that he's playing through an undisclosed injury.

The worrying question is whether it's a sign of things to come.

He is the Wrong Side of 30 now

 

[Piestration]

The guys a champion and has been holding this forward line together for years now. He'll return to some form soon enough just like Jamie. The issue is our mids have been getting killed for weeks now which coincides with Checkers drop off.

 

[HFF]

This will sound harsh but he needs to lower his eyes a little.
He can’t keep burning opportunities and teammates every time he gets near 50 be it via set shot or on the run.
I know he’s a goal kicker and it’s instinctive but he could have laced out Elliott twice for easy set shots inside 30m and he blazed away for the on the run from down town.

 

[Go Woods]

Not sure what is wrong with Brodes, has been on the decline for quite a few games.
Needs to lift come finals.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Been ordinary since returning from injury. Fortunately for Checkers, Cox form has seen him dropped, Krueger is playing so so footy in the VFL at the moment and there's really no other medium /Key forward knocking down the door for selection at VFL level....

How many goals has Checkers kicked in the last month?

Tex is 35

How many goals has Checkers kicked in the last month?

2.6 to 1.1 for Cox. Checkers is different in that he can actually stay on the park and get the footy too. This was a cute little drive by though

 

[sr36]

I thiought Checkers was OK today. Nature of the contest was that he was winning the ball 70 out rather than within range.

He is not a champion. He is a good player at best when playing well. Currently he is offering absolutely nothing and deserves to be dropped.

Been saying for some time that he needed a break

Geelong learned the value of managing 30 plus year old players last year and it won them a flag

For some reason we didn’t copy what worked for the premier last year and we’re paying for it now

 

[thebigsaveloy]

I thought until he got injured he was in career best form. He's looked so much worse with McStay in the team, when I would've thought that should help him even more.

 

[Stronzatello]

Embarrassing thread.

Embarrassing thread?? Not quite as embarrassing as his performance yesterday, allowing Sicily 37 disposals and 19 marks, while he didn’t compete nor kick a goal. Needs to be dropped. Case closed!!

Taylor Adams spent a lot of time on Sicily, especially in the first half.

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

Been a saviour for our forward line for a long time now.
I was hopeful having McStay and AJ as targets would allow Checkers the freedom to excel.
Problem is McStay and AJ have both been grossly underwhelming…
