Changes for next week

touche !!

[east gippsland demon 7]

Bate was good yestrday when we were getting back into the game , leads up at the footy and presents hard . Out Strauss. Seems like everyone on here loves him. Shown bugger all IMO.Warnock has been very stiff this year as well and deserves another crack . Garland needs to be harder .

[Happeninghunts 7]

Gysberts has been shaky, up & down all this his 2nd Year. He needs a rest IMO to re energise. (out for Scully.)

Bate out for Jurrah.

Maric out for Bennell

Joel McDonald in for Dunn.

Evans in for Nicho to Sub:

+1

[The Chazz 4,077]

I don't agree at all with the "Gysberts - rest" opinion. He is out of form, and I would make him the sub. That's a compromise for everyone - he gets to rest for 3 quarters, and I get to see him punished for poor form!

In: Sully, Jurrah

Out: Nicholson, Dunn or Bate

Lucky: Anyone not listed above.

If Scully is not fit, Bartram comes in.

One (of many) things I learnt from Sunday, we are a much, much better team when Bate and Dunn AREN'T in the same team. We can carry one, not both.

Id like to see everyone play a 'full' game

Agree.

Agree.

[beelzebub 22,271]

Is Warnock 100% ?? anyone. Or just out of flavour ?

Definitely out of flavour.

[pitmaster 3,080]

what flavour is that?

[hells bells 2,022]

Out: Maric, Bate, Gysberts, Nicholson

In: Jurrah, Evans, Bartram, Scully

I wouldn't be too disappointed with this. Although Nicholson and Strauss could be interchanged.

Musk & Honey ?

OUT: Bate, Maric

IN: Jurrah, Scully

[PeterJames 46]

Can't believe people are back on gettin Bennell in the side. He has had many opportunities and done nothing. Maric has two games, one kicks three and sets up a couple and the next a very poor game. He deserves the run more than Bennell.

Jurrah in for Bate. Would really like to see Batram and Macdonald back for Nicholson and Strauss but I wouldn't like to make many changes as this unsettles a side. This is partly what happened against the Hawks with the forward line having little understanding of where people where at.

[damon the demon 57]

can we play Jamar, Gawn and Martin in the same team? 2 tall forwards plus Watts / Jurrah? Hey why not?

IN: Gawn, Jurrah, Scully, McDonald (if fit)

OUT: Bate, Maric, Dunn, Nicholson

Maric was insipid. Don't give him any credit for his game against Port, Port are rubbish. Maric has no redeeming features. I don't know what his strengths are, I only see weaknesses, and lots of them at that.

Jurrah comes straight back in. Scully too, if fit. Nicholson stays, we need someone to at least try taking the game on with some run off half back. He needs to learn to shepherd properly though.

Bate and Dunn can make way too, even though they (surprisingly, to me, anyway) weren't our worst two players.

Nicholson has a hell of a lot to learn. He would be the first player I drop out of that team. He needs to learn that while it should be encouraged to take the game on, you also need to know your limitations at this stage of your progress, and chances are, you're not going to be able to break every tackle, or outrun every opponent. I strongly believe he has been quite costly over the past couple of weeks, and it wont hurt him going back to Casey for a couple. He's a kid, actually, he's a rookie, so we have a bit of time to work on him, which I think he has the makings of a very good footballer.

I see Pickles Evans has hurt his back and it's unknown how long he will be out for at this stage (must have ben a training incident?).

Dunn should be the defensive forward on Scarlett. Nicho and Strauss should play. Garland is horribly out of form - is he 90+% fit?

Out - Bennell Garland Maric Bate

In - MacDonald McDonald Scully Evans

backline was poor for periods last week where it really hurt us, kicking goals from stoppages in particular, the inexperience back there is the problem with Nicho, Strauss and the Bull...

I'm a fan of these guys, Nicho especially, but we have both in the side for their accurate kicking (in particular Strauss), but they had only 31 possessions between them (Nicho 14, Tapscott 9, Strauss 8)... if they aren't getting much of the footy, I'd rather have bartram in the side as he's going to offer more defensively, and he finds more of the footy, even though he doesn't use it as well....

I'd like to give Maric another run, but our defensive pressure in the forward half needs to improve, and Bennell offers more in this area...

Gysberts is out, struggles to find the footy around the ground when we struggle against the better sides, Scully's inside work much more important against the Cats...

so having said that I think the changes this week are pretty obvious...

Out: Nicholson, Strauss, Maric, Gysberts

In: Bartram, Macdonald, Jurrah, Scully
