Prediction Round 18, 2024: Changes vs Brisbane

[Tugga27]

There’s at least four players that should have been dropped before Chesser. If we are serious about a rebuild jones, darling, Rotham, Luke edwards, witherden shouldn’t be ahead.

I know you've got a hard-on for Chesser, but surely you can see he's been given an extended run.

Again, I don't think some of those players mentioned should be in the side, but that doesn't mean Chesser should be as well.

Let him go and work on his game in the wafl.

 

[Hoskin300]

Chesser was putrid last game. I like his potential but he needs to earn his spot/gain some confidence at WAFL

And so were a number of players aged five years older than him?

 

[WCErevival]

maybe Chesser just aint very good...

Maybe but that gimp wing role isn't doing him any favours.

Do you actually disagree with what I have said? Tell me which of those you prefer to play over Chesser.

I would be more than happy with him getting dropped for other young players.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

With any luck rotham jones darling are the ones cut and

Maric Cully Brockman trew come in with l edwarda as sub

TBH, you're just blindly defending him.
You can't seriously compare him to JD.

 

[mitchzz]

Sorry, to clarify, not just last game but many games before. As much as I like him, it feels like he's been gifted games

I don't think you would be happy for Chesser to get dropped for anyone.

You can't just pick sides based on age.

 

[Hoskin300]

JJ, Darling, Rotham and Witherden all play different roles to Chesser, so theyre not really comparable.

LEdwards I agree, he might just be an emergency though, and Schofield might want Chesser to play a slightly different role or something.
If we want Culley and Trew to get a shot then at least one of our mids needs to go out, cant play them all + add 2 more

They don’t have to play the same role? Plenty of young players could replace those players.

Hunt could move to the backline in witherden and Rothams role anyway. Darling is playing in a position that should be filled by a fast outside player.

 

[Hoskin300]

And to clarify those old shit players have been old and shit for five years hahaha

 

[Keys]

The problem is Jarrad Schofield is incentivised to get results. Stick with the old shit 25 year olds

Depends on what criteria they’re using to judge him on - wins or development. Maybe there’s been instructions to rotate players through over the next 7 weeks

It’d also be helpful if we knew who is on the match committee now Simpson has left. I doubt Schofield has as much sway over final selection as Simpson probably had for example

 

[Elite Pete]

Bench is hopefully- Brockman, Culley, Trew and Maric with JJ as sub.

Happy if those are the changes.

 

[Hoskin300]

I don't think you would be happy for Chesser to get dropped for anyone.

You can't just pick sides based on age.

Maric played well in the wafl and shouldn’t have been dropped in the first place. I would prefer they play both Chesser and Maric.

Yes you can. We are in a rebuild and shouldn’t be playing guys like jones, Rotham and darling.

Answer my question and stop avoiding hahaha

I can see the line coaches having more say over their respective lines

 

[Cuzz09]

Go the Trew believers!

Schoey give him 7 straight games, in his possie and then make your call.

Same with Hedwards

Completely agree Jones and Rotham should be dropped too. Especially Jones

They're on the extended interchange so let's take a deep breath

A "demotion" to WAFL level will be good for Chess

 

[Seadog]

There’s at least four players that should have been dropped before Chesser. If we are serious about a rebuild jones, darling, Rotham, Luke edwards, witherden shouldn’t be ahead.

It's almost like Schofield was on the same match committee as Simmo and it's obvious the players who have been playing are the best we've got.(sad but there it is)
And no I don't think you have to give them a game to see if they can play, watching wafl and training is a fair indicator of how ready they are for AFL.

Guys like Rotham and jones have been bad in the afl mate. There’s absolutely no justification for playing them.

Unless the players you are replacing them with are worse.

 

[Smotie2]

Decent changes imo
Hopefully darling, rotham and Jones get spell for their own good.
Can't complain about Chesser. Rewarding form by bringing in Trew.

 

[Tugga27]

Maric played well in the wafl and shouldn’t have been dropped in the first place. I would prefer they play both Chesser and Maric.

I've answered your question several times.

I think Maric and Culley were both stiff to be dropped.
No you can't just pick a side based purely on age.
That's just ridiculous.

You seem to be of the opinion that Darling shouldn't be playing instead of Chesser which is strange.

I'm not dumping on Chesser and I hope he makes it.

But blindly defending someone who, let's face it, has been poor for a long time is madness.

The crux of your argument seems to be, everyone who is older than Chesser and playing badly shouldn't be playing instead of Chesser.

Don't worry so much about who you think shouldn't be playing in front if Chesser.

You should be asking yourself, does Chesser deserve a game based on his output.

It's not that hard if you want to take off your rose coloured glasses.

 

[stallon]

Bench is hopefully- Brockman, Culley, Trew and Maric with JJ as sub.

Happy if those are the changes.

We are probably a defender short if thats the case :/

We really need more medium defenders on the list

, with worse disposal, and worse defensive effort.

 

[stallon]

Honestly all I want from teams is now JJ out, I can live with the rest.

Rotham is a 3rd tall(only in for structure), LEdwards/Culley/Trew are all on their last chances, Darling will miss some games before the end of the year regardless, and Brockman/Maric will play more than likely.

L Edwards again.... if anything chesser should've been put in the forward and brockman on the wing.
