Top three CHF's to replace Ricky Bobby?

[Eth 4]

I'm no great fan of Brad Miller.......but I'd rather see him playing forward than Newton or Martin.

If Petterd goes out, we need a forward back in.

Miller has had one game this year..........a game we were flogged by the Hawks, and our midfield was a joke!

Service to the forwards was deplorable in round 1!

Since then, quick ball movement has given the forwards a much greater chance, and there have been plenty of easy goals scored on the rebound.

Don't be suprised to see him get another chance, and based on no more than a hunch, if Petterd is out, I reckon Miller will be back this week.

He played that game? Oh, well then he's only gonna play one game for the season, one more than I expected.

agree. don't think he deserves too many chances this year but this is the right time to bring him in

I don't think we've used a standard, stagnant, forward six since round 1 and i think the flexibility and unpredictability has helped enourmously.

At various times we've had Petterd and Bate playing high half forward with Green and Sylvia deep. At other times we've had Syvlia playing CHF with Dunn leading out to the wings. We've also seen Green roaming around the midfield with Bennell presenting an option at half forward.

I think with Petterd out not much will change. I'd like to see the coaching staff deploy Bruce forward to start the game and bring a running player in for Petterd. I'd also consider another running option to replace Martin. We won't win games this year trying to take contested marks inside the forward 50 but we might if we can run harder, longer and faster than out opponents.

Chances for selection - Bail (if fit), McKenzie (if fit), Cheney (in great form according to reports), Gysberts (the roughie)

Out - Petterd, Martin

Why not give Watts a run... at Casey he has been playing for the most part off the wing I believe(correct me if I'm wrong... I'm a NSW demon) where he is never going to set the world on fire; so if they were to give him a run up forward, he could actually do alright considering the fact that our mids (Saturday excepted) are giving much improved delivery. In fact, with his pace on the lead and his height, he may be a good option this Friday (but definitely NOT on a wing).

Has been playing upfield at Casey to get game time, action and to build his build fitness.

Will be picked when ready. Enough said.
