Unofficial Preview Praccy Match 2 Vs Saints - This time it’s serious

[Roosurgence]

CCJ needs to show more mobility to be a chance to be a successful player in our system. I was hoping he'd slim down a bit so he could be hitting up between the arcs with a bit more reliability and be able to shift his weight quicker when playing forward but I don't think that has happened.

CCJ’s issue is that he doesn’t seem to have the smarts to run to the right areas.

Watching him and Larkey run to the same contest, is just comical sometimes.

I have a feeling a smart forward like Sellers will actually suit Larkey more.

Defenders still sit on Larkey when CCJ is playing, because they know he is too dumb to leave space or get dangerous.

Is there 8 interchange per side ? plenty of scope to give some exposure to Sellers if so.

 

[ferball]

IMO we'd be mad not to play Sellers in this practice match.

I asked Microsoft Copilot to make it, took about ten seconds.

AI is awesome, in the literal sense of the word. Like it literally creates awe. And quite a bit of trepidation.

Exactly. We already know what we get with CCJ in the team. Lets see what it looks like with Sellers.

He might get a run , especially if Greenwood, Ford are still out.

Nice to see the corporate team isn't resting on its laurels, going out and approaching the organisation we all know and love - Zaniafiina

If you could choose* one of sellers or duursma this game - who do you take?

Sellers

 

[Roosurgence]

Sellers

100%

Duursma is going to be a player, but we have cover in his role and there is no need to rush him. Let him develop and kick that door down.

With Sellers he is physically ready and we really need to find that second banana to pair with Larkey. I think he will be super hungry to make his mark.

The beauty is we have both options and both are available. It’s great.

Tell Sellers if he kicks 3 goals, works well with Larkey, and we don’t get out marked in our fwd 50…., he will be making his AFL debut against GWS

St Kilda have a super organised back 6, so it really is the perfect game to test out the pairing.

If he can put in a good showing against a Ross Lyon defence he will have shown he has the tools to make it.

Duursma

should easily get the HFF role
Did the whole preseason and only missed last game with soreness

 

[Event Horizon]

Really hoping that Sellers gets a half this week. I just think our forward line would function far better with a natural forward instead of CCJ getting in his teammates way.

Yes, but who will play as a second ruck?

Maybe. CJ being able to play ruck is handy tho.

Definitely, which is why he’s getting a first crack at the spot in the 23. But his 5 minutes rucking a quarter alone isn’t enough to earn that spot.

Yep. Needs to start kicking goals

Against the Saints if he can do this he definitely deserves a shot at GWS.

Sheezel, he can do anything

Scarily the question still applies when CJ is in the side.
