He has been horrible. First goal to Essendon came directly from him with a putrid kick turnover on their half forward line. You can’t reward the form he has been in

None of the three changes are that weird individually. But as a group this completely mystifies me:
Schoenberg probably deserves it, but didn't think they'd pull the trigger.
IMHO Rowe isn't best 22. But is coming off an OK game and more confusingly McHenry still in the side ahead of him.
Hinge is surely just a case of him being left out to recover from an injury, but said to be 'omitted' as some sort of psychological thing????

You've not been watching the SANFL too closely have you?

Rowe has been, at times, a point of hope for us in games in patches we haven't been on. With that being said he isn't a player we actually want in our side. Just not good enough overall so not unhappy he makes way.
Schoenberg out only for as long as it takes to get in his rhythm again.
Hately has to be feeling hard done by. Needs a chance at some point, not waiting until his form drops to see him be underwhelming.
You get the feeling that Thilthorpe is just an underwhelming Gollant performance away from coming back. I stand by my belief that we need to see Tex - Thilthorpe - Gollant. Himmelberg just isn't part of our future.
I hope Thilthorpe is the sub. He is versatile enough. Hinge or Hately after that. Jimmy Rowe isn't a good sub imo though with that being said he plays for frees and we get them at home and up against the Tigers who love to give them away.
At the end of the day the most glaring issues are Frampton who is just going to get towelled up a Balta or Riewoldt and ROB.
Anyway let's hope one is pulled out of the arse this week as opposed to inserted.

It's not like we've never listed an injured player as the Sub before hoping they'd not have to play and another player won't have to miss out on a SANFL game...
Mind bending Rowe dropped when he was one of the better players last week, certainly one of the cleanest and smartest. ROB must have pictures of Nicksy somewhere.
Schoenberg certainly needed a spell after that trash he dished up.

Rowe dropped for McAdam?
So we’re straight up refusing to pick our best team, I see

Harry has been awful
His turnovers have been at times under little to no pressure
This is not just one bad game, but four bad games that have cost scores for, and scores against with his poor ball use and decision making
He also seems low in confidence
No issue with him being dropped

I do understand your point. But Berry instead isn't any faster, plus shorter. I actually think a place for Berry and Hately this week.

Does that make practical sense having a specialist as a sub?
I've always thought you should pick the sub that provides the most flexibility as you have no idea who is going to go down. All the other 3 emergencies are more flexible.

probably not no, i just dont want to see sloane keep going further off the cliff
Gollant to struggle with Mcadam in and get dropped the week after.

Now it's obvious you haven't been watching, Berry is covering a heap of ground both forward and in defence while on ball and showing heaps of run as well as hitting the scoreboard, it was an absolute no brainer he'd be preferred over Hately who in the main got a stack of cheap possessions off of other players hard work.
Wonder what ad victoriam thinks?
Surprised they dropped Hinge.
Other changes make sense.
Schoenberg playing SANFL as the main mid is better than AFL HF.
I would have kept him in, give him more CBAs and get him to learn how to work out of the form slump.
Cook should never have been demoted to sub.
Berry our best SANFL mid at the moment.

I’ve not watched any of the SANFL games, but if McAdam’s in form, surely he’s an upgrade on Rowe?
It might just be training because he is a good overhead marker and will challenge the defence and help them get better at spoiling those mid size players
Since when have the coaches ever worried about midfield balance.
I like Berry but surely he is more of the same
At least Hately offers some height in the midfield
I would’ve put Rowe’s form over the past 4 weeks as plenty enough to keep him in the side for now. I wouldn’t say McAdam’s been knocking down the door, either

Crouch and very few of our mids have the tank nor athleticism Sam Berry has.....You'll get to see how good Sam is aerially pretty soon that should finally open your eyes.
Don't hate the changes.
Rowe will never be first team quality. He tries but he's a gap filler.
Schoey is horribly out of confidence. Not his fault. Played out of position but needs midfield time at lower level to get his groove back.
Hinge isn't right. Hes first team but not 100% clearly.
The lucky one is ROB. Worst game I've seen him play and was a major contributor to why we lost. He must be in notice.
The ins were great. Just Thilthorpe and Strauchan missing.
