Hoping De Goey explodes tomorrow night.
Neither of those appearances came after 6 goal haul with some exquisite conversions in a VFL game.After his last couple of afl appearances, I just don’t feel I can rely on Reef to step in and step up.
It feels risky.
I’d rather play McStay for structure, even though they said otherwise.
I hope he trained well enough for us to reconsider.
If Frampton plays fwd, Ryan is too small to play back so Ruscoe is a more likely option.If Maynard is any chance to kiss miss more than a week, I'd like to see Ryan play.
Ryan and DeGoey for Maynard and Checkers.
Fly said in the presser AJ was lucky to play given he'd been quite ill the day before.Anyone calling for AJ to be an 'in' this week, clearly didn't watch the 2's last week.
AJ and Ginny are behind Reef now.
Very simplistic takeYeah i hate when a tall forward kicks 2 goals in a half.
Atm AJ isn’t a great forward either. Pressure and second efforts are non existent. As is his marking. He was visibly non interested in the vfl game, and has gone back to his pre season form.Very simplistic take
The ball was coming in like an avalanche He got 1 goal from a lucky free and then another Joe the Goose when we ran hard from defense with free players everywhere
I prefer to look at things like leading patterns , forward craft, contested marking, agility, second efforts , forward pressure etc to see if he is a viable forward.
He is a defender or ruck. Period.
AJ clearly the better option as a forward
Reef McStay …anyone but Frampton combined with Cox. 2 unco giraffes at Marvel does not work inside forward 50.Atm AJ isn’t a great forward either. Pressure and second efforts are non existent. As is his marking.
I don’t want frampton and cox as our forwards either tbh. I doubt we will have both lining up together. Gonna be interesting what we do.Reef McStay …anyone but Frampton combined with Cox. 2 unco giraffes at Marvel does not work inside forward 50.

That’s signed ruscoes papers I’d say. Can’t see macrae or bianco playing. So reef or Johnson for checkers. Degoey in. Leaves HH as sub. Ryan would have thought debut game we’d know by nowThe squad at captains run also includes Macrae. Reef. Johnson. Bianco, HH and Ryan

Howe absolutely destroyed Lobb in last years semi.I really don’t dig Frampton playing FF with Cox, but we’ll see how it pans out. I know Lobb is a spud but can Murphy/Howe defend his size?
Maybe they want Moore on Lobb mainly and think Howe can defend Naughton.
OUT: Maynard, Mihocek, Harrison
IN: McInnes, De Goey, Ruscoe (sub)
B: Jeremy Howe - Darcy Moore - Isaac Quaynor
HB: Jack Crisp - Nathan Murphy - John Noble
C: Josh Daicos - Tom Mitchell - Will Hoskin-Elliott
R: Darcy Cameron - Nick Daicos - Jordan De Goey
HF: Pat Lipinski - Billy Frampton - Bobby Hill
F: Jamie Elliott - Mason Cox - Beau McCreery
I: Taylor Adams - Scott Pendlebury - Oleg Markov - Reef McInnes
Sub: Trey Ruscoe
Lobb played for Sydney did he?Howe absolutely destroyed Lobb in last years prelim.
Looking at it without rose coloured glasses, there was one from a free kick and the other was running from defence.Yeah i hate when a tall forward kicks 2 goals in a half.
Well spotted! Edited.Lobb played for Sydney did he?

Aj and Ginnivan have been able to dominate the VFL so I don’t this point holds up in this instance.That's a fair point, I didn't watch the 2's but saw the clip of AJ getting caught with his pants down.
What we see in the 2's doesn't always translate to the top level. Some players have attributes that are hard to measure by watching the lower leagues. AJ and Ginny are good examples of this but your point is valid about Reef's form being very compelling.
