If NN is out do you:
a) bring in McInnes, playing Kennedy, Darling, Waterman and McInnes in the same side
b) leave Slyce to take most of the ruck to himself and rotate another tall through when needed
c) bring in Schofield, using McGovern as the backup ruckman

If Nic isn’t free to play, it’s horse time boys and girls. He’s been east perth’s Most consistent player, and I think it’d send entirely the wrong message to the guys in the 2s if they throw darling or gov into the ruck instead. We want them to keep believing that if they play well enough they’re a chance.
The team itself is going really well too, and I wouldn’t want to unsettle that chemistry, even if it’s only for a week.

If we play Gov darling Yeo ect in the ruck i can see them getting injured..
Yeah it's not great if they don't get reward for their effort in the 2s. But we will be much less mobile with Frase in. Maybe rest Jake the Snake and bring in the Horse.

Worst case scenario, assuming the unthinkable happens tomorrow
Out: Shuey (inj), Naitanui (shafted)
In: Ah Chee, Brander
B: Sheppard Barrass Hurn
HB: Duggan McGovern Cole
C: Gaff Redden Masten
HF: Cripps Darling Waterman
F: LeCras Kennedy Rioli
R: Lycett Hutchings Yeo
I: Brander Nelson Ah Chee Petruccelle
E: Ainsworth McInnes Schofield Partington
Darling to give Lycett a chop-out, Brander to take the minutes in the forward line created by having Lycett and Darling coming out of there. Good opportunity to reward him for good form and blood him against his old mob.
Ah Chee gets the nod over Ainsworth for the final spot as a result because I don't want to pick two debutants and go too far the other way.

Top call shmiddy,Mcinnis is carving them up at WAFL.Look at Nankervis at Richmond; no great shakes as a ruckman,but a big body who busts his arse for the team.If theres a place available hes earned it!!
Keep Darling and Gov in their roles. Keep everybody's role simple.
Naitanui will get off but in hypothetical world, McInnes is the best choice.

If Naitanui gets off: Out - Shuey, In - Ainsworth
If Naitanui is out: Out - Shuey, Naitanui, In - Ainsworth, Ah Chee. Darling to be the 2nd ruck. Having Waterman in means can take Darling out of the forward line

If NN remains suspended then:
In: Fmac Ainsworth
Out: NN Shuey
Darling too valuable in the forward line to be the 2nd ruck. Fmac to mainly just support Lycett in the ruck.

I'd be disappointed to see Ah Chee picked, really don't think his form warrants it.

Both could come in if Naitanui or someone else with Shuey is out

McInnes is arguably in the best form of his career (it was a low bar admittedly) so if he doesn't come in to replace Naitanui then it's hard to envisage when he'll ever get another game
Leave the likes of darling and gov to do what they've been doing so well and turn slycanui into slycness

Love it how Daring is in the form of his life but folks want him to play role that he's not suited to. Let bloke have some continuity.
Mcinnis could come in and play his heart out if he gets a chance and could trouble the GWS with sheer work rate and his competitiveness.
I'd probably bring an extra mid for Waterman. It would probably have to be Ah chee as he is an experienced campaigner and can play HFF as well.

I dunno, I think Waterman has been reasonably important to our movement. He's our Lynch Mark II IMO. Possibly in need of a rest though, in which case that plan makes sense.
Same here. Looks a pretty avo player to be honest

Weather forecast for Sydney on Saturday is showers and windy
If NN is out then we go with one ruckman and bring in a tough inside midfielder, probably Achee or Ainsworth
a) No
b) Yes
c) No
My d) Bring in Achee. and get NN off free.
I'm loving the way the boys are playing. The fight is back in the team. Loved their commitment against the power. If they put in the same effort against the Giants, they will win, and they will go on and win most games this year.

He was due a heel turn.
Ainsworth a lock for Shuey I reckon.
If NN misses, which I doubt, then I reckon we will go small (due to the weather) and add one of AhChee or Partington and ask Slyce to carry the rucking load. Darling and Gov to attend rucks in the forward and defensive 50s.
Barrass is going to have his work cut out against Cameron.

The eagles flag their selections pretty simply
Those who get names emergencies are next in line.
Our EMG's tend to allow 1 for every position.
McInnes has been named most weeks and is the clear reserve ruckman and gunning it in form
So if NN is out - McInnes comes in.
The question will be Ainsworth or Partington. I think Ainsworth has been in the EMGs - so likely him.
