Preview Changes: Round 12 v St Kilda

[RippaRiley43]

Hartigan needs at least a week in the magoos. Has been reading the ball horribly of late, costing us goals with missed spoils and allowing the ball to spill loose out the back where they kick a goal unopposed. I don't think he's particularly fast either. Otto can go back while Beech takes Otto's spot or we can play Doedee/Cheney, don't really care which option.

Drop any combination of Mackay, Atkins and Smith. All were useless. The last two in particular need to step up to the plate in games like this, but they go missing and their tackling is utterly hopeless. I'd possibly consider trading those two if they don't start to shape up in big games like this pronto. At least one of these guys has to go. Bring in one of Knight/Gallucci in their place. I'd also suggest Wigg, but that seems unlikely.

Ideally Douglas, Milera and Brad Crouch would be on thin ice, but they are fortunate our midfield cupboard is bare.

Atkins needs a big wake up. Dropping would do him good. And if it doesn't, then now is a good time to find out he isn't up for a challenge

 

[Pugsley]

Post of the decade
Ruthlessness is now needed
Need to plan which free agent mid we'll trade in or the drought will easily enter the fourth decade

[adelaidecrows]

Outs: Mackay, Jenkins, Kelly, Milera, Smith

Ins: Doedee, Knight, Beech, Cheney, Wigg

 

[hippyhippy]

Ins: Robert Shirley

Maybe he can teach the coaches how to tag.

 

[1970crow]

Out - muppets saying you don't change a winning side
In - muppets saying we're top, there's no reason to panic

 

[SNIPER_]

For the saints i'd go with
In: Cheney, Doedee, Menzel, Knight
Out: Mackay, Otten, Kelly, Milera.

Probable reality: Promising youngster out - Thompson in.

 

[Runnin Blue]

OUT: Milera, Greenwood, Mackay, Walker

IN: Menzel, Knight, Galluci/Poholke, Dear (worth a punt)

Probably mean a loss vs Saints, but I don't care. Lessons need to be learnt.

And Milera should have to hand wash everyone's jocks for 2 weeks until he learns to toughen the f*** up.

Greenwood? Poor call.

 

[TheLeftFist8]

Unchanged. Give the boys a chance to respond!

 

[Redleg Crow]

Time to see if Beech can play.
If Doedee has another good SANFL game, then time to see if he can play
We know Knight can play

 

[whitey_1975]

Out- hartigan, go get some glasses
Mackay- makes pathetic pitman look like superman
Atkins- suck on some concrete while u enjoy a few games in the sanfl
Otten- just to slow and to slow
Lever- best player gets injured. ****.

In, Knight, Keath, Doodee, Poholke, Galluci

 

[Runnin Blue]

Greenwood? Poor call.

Was unsighted until the last quarter when Geelong players were imagining their hot showers. Greenwood is good, but he needs a run back in the twos. Or drop B. Crouch instead.

I sighted him, thought he was good when put into the centre.

 

[MRB37]

Only way Otten can survive is is we drop Hartigan I think.

 

[TheLeftFist8]

How's the list numbers...any chance Keath can be elevated?

 

[Runnin Blue]

Honestly hard to tell how much time he is spending in the middle when watching on tv.

If his lack of impact for the first 3 quarters was because of lack of time in the midfield, then the coaches should be slapped up the head.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Agree a statement needs to be made at the selection table like Beveridge would.

Atkins needs to be dropped to be given a kick up his arse as has been lazy for a few games now.

Mackay for reasons I don't need to elaborate on.

One of Otten or Hartigan too as we are too tall.

Few others on thin ice.

Will comment on my ins after sanfl game, but Beech should be the in for Otten/Hartigan.

Hopefully Knight has a huge game as at least he always puts in unlike plenty tonight.

The Rat had a lazy 37 week

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Out- hartigan, go get some glasses

Interesting

Does he wear glasses? Some players do struggle to judge the flight of the ball in night games. Couldn't have done worse if he was blind-folded tonight.

Pretty sure he just choked.

Did well in the last quarter when the game was over.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Mackay is a pile of shit. Bring in Galucci.

Atkins has had a shit month. Bring in Knight.

I still maintain we're too tall and slow up forward. I'd bring in Beech as a forward/mid with Greenwood.

So minimum of 3 changes:

OUT: Mackay, Atkins, Hartigan
IN: Beech, Knight, Galucci

Whack Otten down back. Hartigan was putrid. Wouldn't mind finding a spot for Wigg in as well, pick one of the other handful of shit down hill skiers to drop.

Both Hartigan and Otten were putrid tonight

Down back I would take Hartigan over Otten every day of the week, Otten down back is exposed and at least Hartigan has really good closing speed

When do we start talking about him.
Looks solid, smart, cool, hard and good skills.

Sign of panic when u constantly run under the footy. No composure just like when he kicks the ball too.
