Changes next week v the Roos

[dees189227 11,016]

Do we make any changes? We had no injuries and I'm not sure who you would drop.

Keep the same 22.

[TGR 1,367]

At half-time I would have dropped Kent…..and Salem….and Jamar…….and probably Roos too.

[Chook 14,613]

No changes.

[Wiseblood 24,636]

Only change is probably putting the sub vest on Riley and starting Salem. This 22 deserves a big crack at Norf after today.

[Grapeviney 8,977]

At half-time I would have dropped... Salem

Bit hard to make an impact when you're the sub.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

At half-time I would have dropped Kent…..and Salem….and Jamar…….and probably Roos too.

Salem was still in the green vest at half-time.

[Chook 14,613]

Watch the game next time maybe.

[Jaded No More 59,109]

Out: heart attack

In: a 10 goal win over those North Melbourne pricks

[Moonshadow 16,409]

Any injuries? (apart from a few of the boys' hearing after Roosy's spray at half time)

[STN91 32]

I'd like to see more speed moving forward and if Roos could work his magic one more time I'd like to see Blease get a go. If not next week, in the next couple.

[DeeSpencer 23,483]

Just don't think Riley has the fitness for AFL yet and we've seen Salem struggle to run out games and lose impact. North are hard working and fit.

So whilst swapping them might be an option I'd rather keep Salem as a gun impact player and drop Riley for whomever is next in line which I hope means JKH again.

Or if we don't want to go youthful I'd really be a fan of trying Terlich as a defensive forward. He has match fitness, speed and courage. Would be much better suited to the job than Riley and if he fails he's decent enough down back we can move him there and throw Howe or someone else forward.

[SaberFang 7,141]

Would probably start rotating Salem/Riley/JKH for the rest of the season, as starting 22, substitute, and week off.

[Macca 16,173]

Salem has an X factor that is needed in the senior side ... the ideal way to rest the bloke is to make him the sub when applicable. He's too good a talent to be playing 2nds footy. As a sub right now, he becomes quite a weapon.

Unless there's an injury, I wouldn't expect any changes. If there is an injury, maybe JKH or Toumpas could come in. Either could start the game and be subbed off for Salem - or vice-versa.

[Demon Disciple 11,133]

Out: heart attack

I'd still settle for a heart-attack, if it means we win.

Were you there?

Great win....hope all went...I did!

Need a couple of changes..

In: Kennedy- Harris , Terlich

Out: Riley, Salem ( REST)

[Canplay 573]

Out: Bail

In: Mitchie

[Good Times Grimes 2,396]

This will definitely not happen.

The only possible change that I can see (barring injuries) is JKH in for Riley.

[JackVineyForPresident 310]

I cant believe anyone would say Salem out.

He made 2 crucial smothers and kicked the winning goal. No. Just no.

In: Kennedy-Harris

Out: Riley

The defence was fantastic last night and Terlich may just have to wait abit

With no real preseason I still don't think that Riley is match hardened. I would not sub him - he needs more time playing time not less - so either play him ( not sub) or drop him.

[DeeZee 6,853]

Out Riley , Bail, in Michie, Blease.

[binman 39,083]

I'm a little gun shy regarding definitive statements after declaring their was no chance of terlich getting dropped so I'll just say I don't think either Salem or bail will be dropped. Salem for obvious reasons and bail because he works so damn hard and xall me crazy but i reckon roos thinks two way gut running is kind of important (which is one reason I rate mat Jones)

[Ted Lasso 17,123]

We won and noone set the world on fire at Casey

No change, make them knock the door down

[Radar Detector 1,339]

I agree with some others on Riley's fitness. I also think Salem is much more of a weapon as a sub at the moment as he has struggled to impact games for extended periods thus far but always does a couple of crucial things when he comes on late in the game.

I would keep JKH at Casey for one more week, swap Riley and Michie and leave Salem as sub.

[old dee 22,982]

I'd still settle for a heart-attack, if it means we win.

I guess you have never had one DD

My advise don't have one

[watchtheeyes 1,210]

We need some class moving forward, someone who isn't afraid to back their foot skills and hit a target. I'm inclined to say bring Toumpas in. He is often described as being one of Casey's best without racking up the possessions which tells me he is damaging with his disposal.

I like Bail this year, he has heart. But i'd consider:

OUT: Bail, Riley

IN: Toumpas, JKH

Blease is close, but he's coming from a long way back for me so where everybody else has to earn it, I want to see Sammy earn it most of the year. No more inconsistency.
