Changes for Next Week?

[Guest ErnieRuckles]

IMHO:

Bartram for Bell - BOG for Casey, speed and endurance to run with one of the best midfields in the comp. Bell out due to collarbone unortunately.

Johnson for Martin - Played really well on weekend, Stef looks like he could use a rest. Geelongs forward line will be more of a hassle with the little guys, not the man mountains.

McKenzie for Morton - Cale needs a rest, and if Bailey has the aggots Jordie should get a run at home, give us a chance to see if he can step up.

Probably max of 3 changes, but Valenti, Whelan, Bennell and Miller are unlucky. Maybe Miller for Robbo.

Thoughts?

Not sure if there will be many changes but would love to see Bartram back.

I think it is time for the sacred one to be rested. Yes that is Cale.

Out: Bell Morton

In: Barts (???)

Mclean looked in the wars on the weekend, He seemed to be limping a lot. Possibly out?

No way will Watts get sent down to the Cattery.

Jurrah may even be rested against those thugs.

Morton won't be dropped, I though he was good yesterday.

Out Bell

In Bartram

Then against North two weeks later we have four changes

Out Robbo, McDonald, Bartram, Dunn

In Watts, Bennell, Cheney, Bail

[Mousey 47]

Out- Bell

In- Bartram or Cheney.

Only forced changes needed atm....haha have not said that for a while

[Strawbsodwyer 0]

In Batram

Out Bell

After this week we should blood youngsters like cheney, hughes, bennell, bail, watts. etc etc and see what they are made of, also it may diminish our chances of winning which is not the worst thing given our win on the weekend.

Agree, yesterday was his best game for MFC IMO. Obviously needs to work on his kicking but otherwise is developing nicely.

Can't you squeese in Grgic?

[Guest Watts=Saviour]

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE don't play Watts! A Backline like that will crush him, and the only thing he'll get of the game will be critisizm. He played well enough for Casey, leave him there for another week.

Rest a few players, bring in some poor ones.....doesn't really matter, it's Geelong at Skilled.....

Haha! Oh how I miss Carroll. And big Al.

Don't like the suggestions about saving the big changes for next week.. I'm flying to Canberra and I would love a win!

[olgreydingo 51]

You forgot Nick Pesch, Ross Funcke, David Grant (yes he was great mature aged recruit from St Kilda) , Alistair Clarkson and Fabian Francis

Although we are on 3 wins you could say we are really on 4 wins because there is no way that Freo will want to win the round 20 game. They can get a priority pick (after the first round) if they don't win more than 4 games. I think they will beat WC in the derby because WC can't afford to win any more games.

Therefore the only thing we can do is rest some of the play-makers for the North and Richmond games such as Bruce and Green, McDonald, Bate, Maloney and now Jurrah.

It's time to give Bail, Hughes and Valenti some games for their development and bring back Newton at FF.

Even then I think we will struggle not to win 5 games.
