Happy for Pooholke...been caning it and deserves his spot.

Gallucci though....what the F is going on there
His SANFL form has been poor. His kicking has been especially poor. He can’t hit a target at the moment. He is an inconsistent kick at the best of times, with a lace out pace followed by a kick to grass a fair way off target.
 
Also, unfortunately though omitting Gibbs and Seed being injured, bringing in CEY and Poholke, we look glacially slow and have lost two (supposedly) good ball users for two mediocre users.

Would be very surprised if this experiment lasts more than 1 week
I don’t mind dropping Gibbs but this is the issue, we’ve lost two outside players with skill for 2 inside players with average disposal, at Marvel when we’ve been exposed for outside run and poor delivery.

It’s as if we saw the best players sheet and said the 2 best players come in irrespective of position.

This was the perfect week to bring in Gallucci. We have no need for CEY and Poholke was the best performed SANFL player so fair enough

Unfortunately Gallucci is in poor form.

Not sure who else could come in that is a like for like for Seed.

They picked two guys in form.

Gibbs has missed this week because his disposal was terrible and seemed to not give a f*** last week.

BUT, how can Kelly, Murphy, Jones and Atkins avoid the hammer?

We should have dropped Murphy for Stengle. Still should also have been included at the expense of Hartigan or Kelly. We have Talia, Hartigan, Kelly all with dodgy four skills, that is 1 too many

It’s not even a like for like for Seeds that’s the issue as we played the spare winger up forward, Pohokle to play that role makes sense.

It’s the CEY Gibbs swap. Last week when our midfield was struggling we moved Milera into the middle and Gibbs back. Now we’ve lost that move, so is Milera stuck in defence? Who else could we swap? We’ve basically gone into the game limiting our options and that’s just dumb.

If we were brave it would have been Sholl in and Milera to the midfield.
 
Good to see Gibbs dropped. But fmd why do it the same week Seedsman is injured? Would've been better off dropping Betts for Stengle if you wanted to send a message.
Betts is still playing like he GAF, nothing at all wrong with his effort.
 
I could not give a flying **** what you think. There are a number of people on this board who got this mail in the pm well before it was popular to bag Gibbs.

Not surprised in the slightest by your response. Rationale has never been a strong point. Easier to shoot from the hip!

Why do they play him if he’s not right? Let CEY cover for a bit instead of working Gibbs into the ground. Groins are problematic, it’s all your kicking power as well as being able to cover kms.

Who would you bring in.

Gooch is struggling at SANFL level.

Here are my thoughts...

I said after the game gibbs is playing shithouse and deserves to be dropped, actually glad they dropped him. His efforts were pathetic.
Poholke and Cey have had a good start to this season in the sanfl. I just dont think they are the right players to replace gibbs and seed.
The balance of the team is already out of wack. Putting 2 slow inside players in the 22 on a fast deck is ludicrous.
They were never going to play fog after his dismal performance playing chb last weekend. But he shouldve already been playing sfl at full forward and jenkins shouldve been in the ruck.
This team is capable of great things but the selection committee has continually crippled it year in year out.
We desperately need another small forward that can kick goals to free up betts, but rely on a kid and a defensive forward to provide us with the answer. Stengle along with fogarty and greenwood is the answer.
I just cant understand what the **** the coaches are doing. Im sure most people on this board agree.
 
EFFORT

I called it straight after the game last week, Bryce played like a player that didn't GAF, it was very plain to the eye.
His disposal by foot was almost cringeworthy....that woeful shot at goal from inside 50 that would have been struggling to cover 30m said it all.
Absolutely this
 
I cant believe people are complaining over this.

Gibbs has been swanning around cruising the last two games. As Bicks has said it is a matter of effort and attitude not capability. He needs a reality check. This ain't Carlton.

They pick the two most in form SANFL players. Unfortunately Gooch and Greenwood are not right.

I personally think we need Greenwood in as we lack grunt. CEY is a similar player type.

Poholke is in some great form and is youngish. They are rewarding form.


Seed is not a pacey player. His main weapon is a long accurate kick. That is how he gains meterage. We will miss him. What we need is Smithers to step up.

Is anyone really complaining about Gibbs being dropped? It’s the team balance that’s the issue

Galluci and Greenwood are obvs better choices but not fit

Unfortunately they are a week or more away and we are nowhere near our best side this week - depressing

Gibbs our is a good move he needs to improve some habits , he’s currently not playing the right style of game
