Strategy Changes Round 2 Fremantle vs. Sydney

[FreoRicci]

TABtouch team: Three changes made

Fremantle have confirmed their final team of 23 set to take on Sydney on Sunday

www.fremantlefc.com.au

Bolton, Ras and Vossy in.
Worner, Reidy and Switta out.

Pretty decent changes

Very nice.
Reidy is going to have a tough year. Just not AFL material unfortunately

Have to admit that Draper is more likely the sub looking at that bench though.

I can see it. In summary for those that can't (for whatever reason) Reidy v Jackson in the ruck, Jackson wins it taps it down to loose turf, Andy (purples) (in the purples vs reds) gathers a ground ball and bursts forward, easily brushing past a disinterested Brodie (reds).

Based off that clip alone Brodie is done and should probably be delisted immediately. He gets selected and dishes that up, people here will erupt volcanic levels of rage

If he gets selected after dishing that up it is telling him and everyone else that's the standard.

We're still playing 8 defenders, unless Chapman is on the wing.

I'm so excited to see Bolton but as others have said I won't believe it until I see him on field after the game has started...

Also for the love of Pav can we PLEASE not select Ras as sub. He's no good as sub and it's not good for his development to then also not get a full game at Peel because he's waiting on the sidelines (or worse - when we had him travel as an emergency for lots of last season).

Subbing him off is a different thing altogether.

Players who I wouldn't mind as sub who could inject something a bit different to impact a game, in no particular order:
Bruce - showed he can impact a game very quickly & may help him last out the full season being first year (personally think he's too good with his bal use but I could see the logic behind it)
Banners - versatile
Voss - I think he subbed on once last year and came on and smashed and crashed packs when everyone else was tired. will benefit Bolton & Bruce too.
NOD - pace out of the mid, breaking lines, don't think we can afford not to have him starting at this stage though
Draper - especially if we have no injuries and put him wherever he can get his hands on the ball not try squeeze him into def
JOM - experienced, good ball use, again don't think we can afford him not to start with our current outs

Banfield is more than likely, with Chapman playing as a mid.

Leaves 1 defender, 2 mids and 1 forward on the bench.

We're still playing 8 defenders, unless Chapman is on the wing.

Chapman as a mid surely.

 

[Spirit Level]

Banners as sub surely?

it's his best position

 

[WhoneedsMcLeod]

Banners as sub surely?

it's his best position

His best position is the other side of the picket fence, hopeless.

Selection committee got this right. Sub will be interesting, would put money on Raz, but at least they dropped Reidy and put Voss in.

Changes look right, see if it translates.

Erasmus needs to take his chance now, I really hope he stamps his authority on this game and becomes the Top 10 player the club believed he could be.

 

[s_wd6]

No way should Ras be sub.

 

[bone2468]

Happy for Raz, hope he’s not sub and can get a full crack kid needs the exposure

 

[Eski3]

I would think the "change of role" with Bolton is him being used as a traditional small forward, especially with Walters and Switta out. Means Ras will likely play in the 22 as we will be one short in the middle without him

In conclusion - Banfield will be sub

 

[Cesoir]

Happy for Raz, hope he’s not sub and can get a full crack

 

[Eski3]

Unless they go with Chapman again lol

Massive game for him. Probably has this game, and one more before Fyfe is back. Needs to perform.

 

[MadMundy]

Brodie stans pissed as usual, I don't know how this guy has so many diehards.

 

[Mesc]

RIP in peace Brodie...

Gotta feel for the bloke.

 

[Mesc]

Unless they go with Chapman again lol

WTF was with that?

 

[freoextra]

Unless they go with Chapman again lol

For mine it is Chapman or Draper because the balance was all wrong in the last game. Two very important players but we have coverage at the moment, one should miss. So Draper for sub and first in for injury in the future.

 

[Andy Brennan]

Banfield is more than likely, with Chapman playing as a mid.

Chapman as a mid surely.

Unless: chapman defender, Banfield and ras mids, Voss forward, Draper sub

 

[Joose]

Banfield for the sub. Chapman is talented enough to play anywhere.

Help me out here, has Heath ever been tried forward of the centre?

 

[Dirty_banchez]

I think Sydney has made a mistake playing 2 rucks this week.

Our ins are very good. JLo is back baby.

 

[s_wd6]

They’ve talked Chapman for wing for years now I think now should be the time to pull the trigger.
