I think people are wrong on these two:
  • Banfield essentially did one bad kick on goal, but he was also one of the ones trying his guts out till the very end to get us back in it and actually making some impact; he is going to stay in the team, if just as reward for how hard be tried; and
  • Henry had a pretty good first half being critical in multiple good entries (some of our best plays even) into the forward line, started the second half on the bench when all the rot set in and was then brought back on as a forward when the ball was almost solely in Adelaide's half. I think he will get picked next week. Similarly Acres was good in the first half.
The only changes I can sense may be Brodie (Hugely unlucky for Brodie who played pretty well apart from the goal he missed) for Fyfe, and Meek for Darcy (Again somewhat unlucky).

Brodie won't be dropped after today. Ludicrous.

Contested ball and tackles, all the talk pre-season was Erasmus, Walker can take the smalls.
We need to get the flankers to rotate midfield.
That includes Erasmus and either Chapman or Young?
Darcy to rotate with Lobb forward, keeps the structure.
Walters maybe closer to retiring than Mundy
 
Walker MUST play.
Darcy, Fyfe, Colyer and Walker in.

Meek, Banfield, Walters and Young out

Yeah missed Colyers dash today. Walkers run too. Maybe too top heavy in defence?

Meek awful yes.
Walters must come out. If we are fair dinkum about depth and pressure on spots he must be dropped.

Is Ryan playing injured still? I feel like we really missed Aishs' ball use and ability to go between contests in the back half. Walker is another inclusion we need. There's a few people worth dropping but I couldn't who and who are exactly.

Just a question. you reckon we're a liitle too top heavy in defence? Besides Clark we have little run.
 
Literally we had 4-5 absolute passengers today and people are calling Brodie as “unlucky”.

What about Walters, Henry, Treacy who were putrid lol

Pretty sure there's plenty of suggestions for Walters and Henry to be dropped.

Brodie played well but if Fyfe is fit, he'll be better, and we can't afford to lose too much pace by adding Fyfe to the midfield on top of Brodie and Mundy.
 
Henry out for Colyer
Banfield out for Sturt
Waters out for Eramus
Treacy out for Amiss
If Hamling is fit, then Cox out for Hamling.

Add Fyfe and Darcy if fit, not sure else should go out. Would be good to get on more small defender in the team, and one medium tall out.

That is probably enough

Meek had about 2 bad handballs but apart from that was pretty solid. Only reason he's out is because darcy, not because of his performance
