Jones

In:

Evans (First XXII)
Williams
Burgoyne (Sub)

[jac147]

Out:

McEntee (Jonas'd)
Jones

In:

Evans (First XXII)
Williams
Burgoyne (Sub)

Perhaps a place in the 23 for Sweet?

 

[Buget]

It wouldn’t surprise me if they give Sweet a run and drop Finlayson. Soldo was decent as a tall target who can kick a few, whilst Sweet is actually pretty athletic given his size. Having a second ruck option who can actually ruck is important.

So, I’m going:
Out/
McEntee (concussion, but should be dropped anyway)
Finlayson

In/
Evans
Sweet
Burgoyne/Williams to sub

 

[davesnothere]

Our midfield is carrying a few players who should be right under the pump.

Finlayson is picking up where he left off last season and that's after doing nothing preseason.

Mitch for Finlayson.

Williams for Jones.

 

[RossFC]

IN: Evans, Sweet, Williams
OUT: McEntee (possible concussion), Finlayson, Jones

Jones as sub.

 

[Wargreymon90]

Im not dropping Finlayson yet. It was his first proper hit out

 

[davesnothere]

Perhaps a place in the 23 for Sweet?

I'm all for Sweet getting a run but Soldo ran out the game and that's exactly what Port what. Dixon also needs something to do to say relevant so 20-25 percent time in the ruck.

 

[Visenfest]

In: Evans, Georgiades, Williams
Out: McEntee (regardless of concussion), Finlayson, Jones

McEntee had 1 disposal, 1 mark and 1 tackle from 74 minutes of game time before he went off. Regardless of concussion, that was an awful performance and he shouldn’t be picked next week.

 

[JimmyBC]

I'd drop Evans he offers nothing

 

[gbear]

In: Sweet, Williams and Evan’s
Out: Finlayson, Jones and McIntee

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

Im not dropping Finlayson yet. It was his first proper hit out

I think he would play himself into form, definitely improved as the game went on, but Soldo showing some forward craft today makes me consider Finlayson for Sweet

 

[LittleLika]

I got a concussion watching McEntee

 

[JimmyBC]

Not playing Sweet he'd just get subbed out

 

[Adz2332]

I'd put Jones forward for McEntee

Out
McEntee
Finlayson
Evans

In
Williams
Sweet
Burgoyne sub

 

[Marmozet]

This will be a very tough game, coming off that game in the heat today. We'll also see how much affect Opening Round has on it, because Richmond will have two games under their belts and we'll have had only one.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

McEntee can come back when he has 15 possessions and 3 goals in the SANFL.

 

[Doctor Feel]

McEntee can come back when he has 15 possessions and 3 goals in the SANFL.

He will come straight back in after concussion time is served lol

 

[philthy05]

I'd put Jones forward for McEntee

Out
McEntee
Finlayson
Evans

In
Williams
Sweet
Burgoyne sub

A week after kicking 24 points you want to move the clumsiest butterfingered manic dog chasing a car and wouldnt know what to do with it if he caught it player on our list … forward?

 

[Schulzenfest]

God our small forward options are dogshit with SPP out.

Out: Evans, McEntee, Jones
In: Burgoyne (to 22, Mead to sub), Narkle, Williams

Narkle is more impactful than Evans or McEntee, don't understand why we're so reluctant to play him.

Don't drop Finlayson. Soldo can handle the sole ruck role, and 0.4 is still 0.4 more than Sweet would be likely to contribute up forward.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

If you're going to drop Finlayson, it'd be for Georgiades not Sweet

Narkle is so bland. Why bother. I don’t want to see Evans picked either , but at least he’s an actual forward.


We desperately need to find out if either of the 2 small forwards we just drafted are ready to come in asap (yeah I know we’re waiting with the injury to Lachlan)

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

Soldo vs Nankervis & Naismith feels like a heavy load

Sweet offers more in Ruck than Finlayson and Soldo rests forward
