Yeah I don't rate him highly. Since he has come in it has also forced Newnes to play all over the shop. When he was playing as a permanent wingman earlier in the year he was playing best footy but has gone backwards since.
Long’s been average but still better than both young and Kent and with Lonie still injured we are fresh out of small forwards.
Coff and Joyce I feel are a bit stiff the way they came in but we would be still to top heavy to keep Joyce in.
Otherwise yeah I’d be either Paton or White could take that spot.
Makes sense. God help our midfield.
Is there any word on Jack Steven?

King will debut in a home game. No chance the club misses the opportunity to maximise the crowd through the draw of his first game.

Lethlean said he would be back at the club this week and hopeful of him joining back into full training.

Given the game is in Townsville, it is a near certainty that King will NOT play. It is a playing surface that has not had AFL football played on it for a few years and we will unlikely risk our ace in the pack in front of 5000 people. Put all your chips in on him playing against Brisbane in Rd 14.
I do expect to see at least 5 changes though this week.
McKenzie, Marsh, Acres all come back in naturally after missing last week. It's not as if anyone came in and stole their spots in China.
And Clark must come in from the cold - his exile has been futile when you consider they brought back Long for reasons not explained.
You would think White comes in for Geary.
Joyce has surely had his Irish passport returned to him and he is free to return home whenever he pleases.
Phillips doesn't have what St Kilda needs - no-one is turning their chair for a guy who runs up and down the wing but only links up in a handball chain occasionally.
Kent needs to find form again in the VFL and Young is doing his best Where's Wally impersonation in the Senior team.
Newnes will play all 22 games - don't bother calling for his head. The club is applying the James Frawley theory with him. Eight seasons without finals will give the club ammunition to pressure the AFL to get ridiculous FA compo either immediately after our first pick or at end of first round. No-one believed Frawley was worth Pick 3, but alas, it happened.

Joyce was having a shocker in that game but he's been alright up until then.
Naaaaa, he's horrible. If Austin was fit you'd hope he'd be behind him.

He's kind of shit too, I've never seen a defender so keen to run away into space and leave a paddock behind him. He's a big accumulator though, should try him forward.
He's injury prone but wouldn't say he's no good.
Might as well swing him forward. It's what Cho does. Change players positions for no reason.
Newnes ain't getting us diddly in FA compo. It's one thing to dress up James Frawley as elite but Newnes, c'mon... We'd get a 2nd rounder and say thanks.
It's the only thing he tries then. Haha

In- Webster, Hind, M.King, Acres, McKenzie, Marsh
Out- JOYCE, LONG, YOUNG, COFFIELD, Dunstan and Geary.
Joyce never plays again....if Webster isn't available then Paton/White in.
People say Ross isn't damaging well Dunstan is much worse and does nothing with his disposal except turn it over.

Nothing would surprise me this week selection wise. And I don't mean that in a bad way. The safe route is to play Hanners and King in the VFL again and also have minimal changes. Am sure they will look at how they all shape up after a week off. Hanners and King may have done extra work.
Game we have to win if we have aspirations. I remember back before the China trip that it was said Jack Steven had been angling to come back. They told him to leave it until after the bye.
Time to be bold. If not this week then certainly next.

Mate we know you don’t like dunstan. I’m not a fan either but suggesting dropping him every week just loses credibility. As for Joyce he has played the game about 3 years. Probably got more improvement in him than half the list. Even this year you can see the improvement from last year.

Judging by the beer gut he’s carrying I think he’s at least a month away maybe more. He’s starting to look like a retired Darren Jarman.

Lose credibility? You gotta have an ounce of it in the first place to lose!
And on behalf of that good looking bastard Others, he still says Richo doesn't try enough things!

Out
Young, Geary, Phillips, Joyce
In
McKenzie, Webster, Acres, Clark
I would like to see the club give Coffield a block of games to build up his confidence.
Smaller, quicker backline with Joyce out. Brown stays in to play on 2MP.
Too many small forwards, Young makes way.
Phillips out allows Newnes & Billings to play further up the ground.
Acres in for chop out ruck & allows Bruce to remain forward.

Can we somehow pay Gold Coast his salary behind closed doors and get them to offer him 700k x 4? First round compo baby.. Carlton’s been doing it for 50 years, why can’t we.
