Well at least both sides are gonna be 0-2 going into the game
Fogarty is 2 years younger and actually has ability. Berg is just a donkey.

I see two donkeys
Agreed, Fog had a bad game and is frustrating, but is better than that. That was a good game for Himmelberg

Fogarty can kick for goal. Himmelberg can't. They are both fairly useless in other aspects.
Therefore:
Out: Himmelberg, Jones, Rowe, Sloane, O'Brien.
In: Thilthorpe, Parnell, McAdam, Laird, Strachan.

With Alir out we have to bring Thilthorpe in.
Jonas and McKenzie massively exposed without Alir.

After todays performance surely Himmelburgs papers are well and truly stamped.....but you know crows selection...
Cracks me up when I see people complaining about FOG not being able to connect with midfielders. With the disposal of our midfield, good luck anybody connecting with them, parts of the crowd would have better luck!

Jones middle or doesn’t play. Let’s stop mucking about
Surely we need to determine if someone like Hately has a chance at AFL level at this point?
Agreed
Would still like Straughan to come in, but TT definitely. Still like the idea of Frampton in and Murray going forward.
Laird for Sloane
TT for Himmelberg
Davis for McHenry - Davis going back releasing Smith, Hinge and Dawson to play higher
Frampton in for Rowe, Murray going forward. Murray and TT to play deep with Fogarty at high HF
Out: Nicks
In: Pyke.
Heck, what’s Robert Shaw doing these days. We had more system under him
Schoenberg can **** off too and rediscover some form. Take McHenry with him
Himmelberg is less effective than a witches hat.

Changes are pointless at this point if Nick's is going to continue to select Crouch, Sloane and Keays in the centre square every time.
From today's game it might be easier to name players I think would actually fit into a premiership side.
Rachele.
Pedlar. And not as a forward.
Dawson.
Cook.
Hinge. With experience.
Schoenberg. With development.
Rowe.
Doedee.
Butts.
Gollant.
Fogarty, Jones, McHenry and Sholl would want to significantly improve.
That's it. Smith too old.
Keays tries hard. But I can't see him in Melbournes side right now.

Our bigger issue at the moment is finding the kahoonas to break from the current core mix of Sloane / Keys / Crouch / Laird to ensure we can get decent looks at our up and coming mids.
It's an indictment that at this point of our rebuild Shoenberg is the only next gen mid getting regular minutes in our midfield.

With every week the ROB contact extension is looking less and less enlightened.
I genuinely think Straughn offers more than him at this point. He's on par or better than ROB with his tap work, is still competitive in the air (which is ROBs main strength) but brings a significant upgrade in ball handling and disposal.
Time to give him a run.

They're both donkeys.

Out: Rob, Himmelberg, Murray, Crouch, Soligo, Sloane, McHenry, Jones
In: Strachan, McAdam, Hamill, Berry, Thillthorpe, Milera, Murphy, Hately
Jones for Hately, as a replacement for crouch. Use Hamill and Milera as HB. Pedlar replaces Sloane in the middle. McAdam replaces Pedlar in the forwardline. Berry for McHenry. Murphy as sub. I even hate Murphy, but he played well in the sanfl trial and McHenry was putrid. Imagine 8 changes.

Our two critical areas relate to two major problems:
1) as per fmtch, the club needs to show some balls to shift away from the focus on accumulators and bring in new blood to the centre. We need more time for Dawson, Schoey, Berry, Pedlar, Hately in there at the very least.
2) we need to prioritise players that have the skills to perform. Players like Dawson, Hinge, Davis in the back half, Cook, Smith in the middle and Tex, Fog and Rachele in the forward half who consistently hit targets and move the ball with speed.
Today we did neither
