Who's under the pump to keep their spot: Matt Jones, Trengove, Rodan, Fitzpatrick, Evans (?needs a rest), Dunn, Pedersen, Strauss, Tapscott

Regardless of whether we get a new coach nothing will really help in the way of changes, last week to this week showed that.

I think the backline today all things considered did ok. Pedersen whilst not setting the world on fire deserves another shot. He took a couple of marks and had a dip. He's a nice match up for big Lynch and hopefully can't play him into form. Dunn isn't finding the footy and Strauss and Terlich both disappointed defensively today but were good with the ball. We persist.

For the forward line I'm tempted to stick with Fitzpatrick to give him a decent shot. If he just had any kind of poise today he would've marked a couple and contributed instead of being a negative. Gawn has more upside in the ruck obviously but Fitzpatrick's speed and mobility is worth another week. Joel Macdonald did a good job. Tapscott has some credits in the bank, same with Davey. Kent was good today and Watts was Watts. 1 good effort with skill, 1 standing around a contest wasting space etc. Bail is just a waste of time at the moment, turn over machine.

Midfield wise we just battled. But it's time to stop the Rodan merrigo round. He actually tried the second half and racked up some ball and 11 tackles. We persist with McKenzie. We persist with Trengove. Magner never should've been dropped and therefore he comes in for Bail. Evans has looked flat the last two weeks but again we persist as there aren't any options. Matt Jones was getting trounced today. We need him to be in the side and playing well so from that point of view I'm inclined to keep him and give him a shot as the sub to see if he can be a good impact player to get back in form.

I think it's time to give Taggert a taste and bring Blease back in. Time for Tapscott to play some midfield time or be replaced by Magnar if they don't think he's up to it.

'Watts was Watts' - the reality of this comment is quite saddening. Needs a spell at Casey, but won't get dropped.

Bail is struggling. Blease time?

The Pies have a hard midfield core, but not a lot of pace in their veterans. I'd think Magner for Bail is about right. I don't think anyone on the park this week deserves to be dropped.

IN : Tom Mac,Blease,Gawn,Jetta .

Out:Jamar,Tapscott ,Bail,Joel Mac.

We need 2nd and 3rd efforts,ground level skills, kicking skills and pace.

Jamar is a liability now. Has been for a year.Too slow at everything.

Tappy is battling for form-needs a kick in the magoos

Bail isn't big or strong enough and of those running types he is the worst kick.

Joel Mac was ok today but is never going to make it in finals,same reason I'll leave out Magner and any other battlers-they can't kick.

McKenzie stays on sheer defensive effort alone.

McKenzie is OK when he plays within his limitations. The set-up handball to Davey for a goal was perfect. He just needs to avoid kicking.

Sorry, Magner for Bail

Out: Tapscott, Jamar

In: Taggert, Gawn,

You can't put Gawn in against Jolly. He'll be smashed.

To me Jamar neutralizes the centre bounce and with our midfield is actually a positive, for mine retains his place.

Didn't Sylvia get 3 weeks? If so he is due back.

You are right. I suppose bring him in but I'm not expecting any miracles from him.

In Sylvia, Magner, Taggart, Sellar

Are you really going to swap Pedersen for Sellar again.

Minimal changes. I say again, bring in Magner for Bail. If Sylvia is ready to go then maybe he can have the Bail spot instead. Nothing else needs to be changed.

You can't put Gawn in against Jolly. He'll be smashed.

Not so sure of this, watched big Max take Hudson apart at a Casey game before his last knee so he can do it against experience. He will definitely give us more around the ground but his downside maybe the tank to go all day.

Rodan's best game today, Fitzy showed better signs than last time, Jamar was good, as usual, at getting first touch, Kent showed good signs, M Jones needs a rest, Bail should be replaced, Strauss should be replaced, MacDonald did well in first half,

We must bring in Blease and leave him for the remainder of the year. Give a solid chance to perform and keep improving. We have too many players that can't kick and Bail is at the top of the list. Evans & Kent would be still, but Sylvia and Magner will both get more than 15 possessions.

Should have never been swapped to start with.

In Sylvia, blease, magner (would love couch to get a run)

Out bail, Evans, Matt jones

I think we could bring Magner in for Matt Jones.

Nothing wrong with Jones, just that he looks like he needs a rest - looked buggered today, freshen him up.
Reward Magner with a game, bring in some fresh mids.

Bring in Blease, we need some leg speed, not that we struggle entirely with that - just that Blease will add some dash.

Kent performed better at AFL level than VFL, it's not silly to think Blease won't do the same.

Give the kid a chance, show some faith in Blease, who shown some faith in the club when he would've had decent offers to play elsewhere at the end of 2012.

INS- Sylvia, Gawn, Taggert, Magner, Blease

OUTS- Bail, Mckenzie, Jamar, Evans, Strauss

that's what I would like but not going to happen

Please don't bring Tom Mac straight in, he has not played a great game this year, he needs to come back via Casey

Out: Bail, M.Jones,

In: Taggert, Magner

Bail..Enough said.

M.Jones deserves a rest.

Taggert deserves a run in the seniors

Give Sylvia a run in Casey and bring him back refreshed after the bye.

Why, oh why did we ever drop Magner?
