Preview Changes: R20 vs Carlton, Saturday July 30, 7.00pm ACST @ Adelaide Oval

Remove this Banner Ad

Out: McHenry (absolutely no attributes as a player), McAdam (inj), Doedee (consistently serving up trash), Schoenberg (only showed up in junk time), Keays (panic merchant), Cook (was pathetic)

In: Taylor, Rowe, Worrell, Hately, Rachele

Sub: Sholl

If Rachele needs a run at the lower level, bring in Sholl and make McHenry sit in the sub vest and think all day about how shit he is.


Edit: Smith only survives because making more than 5 changes to a 22 just isn’t practical. Another game like that and he should be put on ice for the rest of the season.

No Worrell against Carlton and we riot.

Don't overly care anymore. Taylor and Newchurch would be good but just want the year over. The changes are pretty much meaningless as we have a coach that can't coach. The biggest priority for me is a new coach otherwise we are heading for another bottom 4 next year.
 
From a culture perspective ROB, Smith, Doedee all need a week in the twos

All are struggling massively for whatever reason

Yes it would leave us very, very young and we're young to begin with and we'll get smashed. But building our long term culture is more important

It is unacceptable to pull on our guernsey as a senior player and dish that up

I kind of agree with this. I haven't up until today but doedee & smith were especially poor today. Rob appeared to be better after quarter time and I'm not sure playing Strachan really provides any short or long term benefit. Both are equally shit. Rob a bit more battle hardened maybe. I get your point and wouldn't riot if he was dropped or anything
 
McHenry out for Taylor, should have happened this week.

RoB out for Strachan or Himmelberg. Won't happen because he won the Hiout stat. But offers nothing. Would play Thilthorpe in Ruck 60%.

Murphy out for Rachele, if fit. Gollant if Rachele can't get up.

McAdam, injured. Gollant in. We all know Rowe will be back in though.

Worrell for Doedee. Doedee playing injured. I suspect Worrell flew over for Doedee coverage. Put the cue in rack for the season and give Worrell a block of games.

Smithers out for Cook. Cook is better than he showed today. Smith is cooked.

Doedee and Smith have been poor for a while. ROB is just poor indefinitely. Would try Frampton/Strachan and Thilthorpe in the ruck.

We really struggled today down back and don't have an intercept defender (doedee has lost this from his game for some reason) which would be a massive concern going against a dangerous carlton tall forward line.

If worrell comes in this week against Carlton he will get towled up and then dropped next week so I'm hoping we wait another week.

Out - mchenry, mcadam, milera
Ims - rachelle, gollant, sholl

I would be accepting warily of Rob for Strachan & doedee for worrell. Keays for Taylor also. I'm a keays fan but he just panics with the ball, saving grace thus week could be blues being a physical midfield
 
Hately gets in after his SANFL game today
I wouldn't read too much into SANFL stats with some players. Crouch showed that. The only mid I can see from that SANFL team that will be good is Taylor. We need to be investing the games into the right players and putting them in the right positions. I would bring Taylor in for Keays and anyone in for Ned. Murphy needs to go as well but I don't wanna see Rowe back in. Let's see Newchurch and Rachele if fit. I don't care about Newchurch's form as he has likely dropped off after repeated good games and not getting picked.
 
Out: McHenry (never to return)
Jones - disappeared after the first quarter. Sigh I keep hoping but he just doesn’t read the ball well.
Cook - did zero
Macadam - inj
Murphy - he just ain’t going to be a finals team level player

I think Cook has been stuffed around all year. Give him an opportunity to turn it around at home.

I don't think most are dying for Hately to return, just basing it on previous selection patterns where the guys they drop get brought back super quick based on one good SANFL performance.
