Changes for next week...

[Adam The God 30,541]

Matt Jones was quiet.

Byrnes also.

Frawley injured.

Blease,Garland,Riley in.

Blease sub-Salem in starting 18.

Matt Jones was inconsistent. He started off like a house on fire and went missing for a little while, or at least he failed to have the same impact that he had earlier in the game. He still had 21 touches. Solid. I'm not his biggest fan, but he's certainly improved this season. He goes again.

Plus, he had three touches for over two quarters on the weekend. Love him, think he'll be a beauty. His pressure acts and physicality was good, but as you've rightly pointed out ET, he lacks the endurance at this stage. He'll keep playing as sub. Roos may even rest him this week.

no he won't (rest him). No chance. In an interview on dee TV stone says assuming his form is good he may well stay in the side for the rest of the year. He may never be dropped.

Blease hasnt done enough at VFL level, and Matt Jones still got 21 touches, so he desrves to stay.

Id just bring in toumpas or Clisby for Byrnes,and Garland for whoever is not 100% out of Frawley and Georgiou.

If they are both not right then bring in Gawn too.

Hang on. That's pretty illogical. They play completely different positions. Byrnes stays. Agree with the rest.

For now, he's in our best 22, yes.

Best 10 off the top of my head are N Jones, Tyson, Dawes, Vince, Frawley, Viney, Garland, Howe, Cross, Grimes.

If JKH plays like that again next week I'll be tempted to slot him into my top ten. He was sublime.

That's an interesting post, P. I don't think I could name a top 10 I'd be happy to send out against anyone in the league. I agree with 8 of those. Howe is far too inconsistent and he's a very slow decision maker. Whereas, Grimes, jeez, he wouldn't get a game for many other teams. But, what this top 10 list does do is illustrate how far we have to go. At least, we have some direction now though.

JKH's game was terrific on the weekend (with the exception of that missed shot out on the full). I'm liking what I'm seeing there.

Riley in if Viney gets shafted at the circus.. Err tribunal.

Garland in for georgiou or frawley.

Salem to start in the 18.

I agree, B, it's unlikely, but my thinking there was that it was an interstate trip and a quite taxing one. He also played more game time than they would have been expecting.

Absolutely unintentional and fair. The injury is irrelevant and accidental. This is footy: a contact sport.
