Out. JKH

In. M.Jones

Vince may be in trouble...Who knows with the MRP these days tho

In: Viney Jetta

Out: Pedersen and maybe JKH

I thought pedo was doing alright. Took some good contested mark in defence.

If Viney is right he should come straight back in. Assuming Jetta and Viney are possible.

In: Viney, Jetta, Jones

Out: Howe, JKH, Pederson

Matt jones? You are [censored] joking right? If that's what we have got to look forward to then we are stuffed

Did you watch the VFL today? He will give you a turnover or two but he runs to space and gets the ball and has some toe. He is better than some of those running out there at the minute.

He always plays well at VFL level and comes up to the AFL level and shits his pants and constantly turns the ball over. Constantly kicking across the face of the goals and having his passes intercepted. No thanks. Rather just get Neale Bullen in and start blooding the kids.

You're not wrong. Matt Jones turns the ball over too much to play AFL level. He is an 'ok' VFL player, nothing more.

JKH must go - not up to it yet and a touch selfish

Would agree that JKH has to sit next week out. Play in the 2's. Every time he got the ball, he spilt it straight away.

The cupboard is pretty bare unless Jetta and Viney make it.

Michie looked the only one likely at Casey and Bail must be next in line if he was the spare.

Doesn't fill me with confidence.

Outs. JKH, Pedersen

Ins. Viney, Jetta

A few things:

On first glance the team balance might look out of whack with those changes but Jetta can slot straight back into defence. Howe can then move forward in place of Pedo. Viney straight swap for JKH.

Play Stretch as the sub and then sub Brayshaw off halfway through the third quarter as both show plenty of promise but don't yet have the tank to play four quarters. Brayshaw had 3 touches after half-time and Stretch 0.

Controversial opinion maybe, but I don't reckon Spencer was THAT bad. He at least broke double figures for possessions, better than Jamar's normal output. Give him another week. If he stinks it up against the Hawks, then trial Gawn for 2 weeks. If that fails, bring back Jamar and target a ruck at the end of the year (we probably will do this regardless).

JKH has been next to useless this year and Pedersen/Dawes are too cumbersome to play in the same side.

Out: JKH, Pedersen

In: Jetta, Jamar

JKH was a waste today. I though Pedersen was ok but we need to give Spencer another go. I'd have him as a sub with Jamar yo ruck a half and Spencer the other. We will then know who we persevere with.

Toumpas also to be given a final chance and I'd okay him on the ball more. He is too slow elsewhere and I want to see if he can be an inside mid.

I would not rush Viney back in for the Hawks. If Vince gets rubbed out or if Tyson is injured, then Riley comes in for me. Bail next in line after Riley.

Out: JKH , Pedersen

JKH - doesnt kick enough goals to retain his position as a small forward who struggles to apply forward pressure. Will come good just needs time.

Pedersen - Tries hard, can take a nice grab but is quite limited in his overall impact on games.

IN: ANB , Jetta

ANB - looked promosing in the VFL and i think deserves a shot in the seniors. (Barring a viney return)

Jetta - hopefully hes ready to slot back into the back 6

Give spencer another week. Howe is on serious notice, but he needs to play seniors to retain any trade value i guess.

After watching Casey today I don't want to think about the depths of our shallowness.

In: Jetta, Viney (presuming fitness for both)

FB: Jetta Dunn Garland

HB: Salem McDonald Howe

C: Lumumba Jones Vince

HF: Watts Hogan vandenBerg

FF: Garlett Dawes Brayshaw

Foll: Spencer Tyson Cross

Int: Viney ???? ????

S: Stretch

Stretch was lively. Maybe back to the sub for a week against the Hawks then a full game against the Dogs.

Spencer may as well have a second go despite his atrocious first quarter

Watts can start again. The cycle continues

Take your pick from Pedersen, Newton, Toumpas or JKH. You can chuck Matt Jones, Bail, Michie, Riley, Gawn or any others from Casey in as well.

I'm usually totally opposed to Matt Jones but I'd get it if he was picked. Especially if Viney is back to add another inside mid we certainly needs outside run. I'd shift Vince in to the role and get Lumumba back on a wing (which is made easier by Jetta in to the backline). But if it's not to be that move then either Toumpas, Stretch or both stay or Matt Jones comes in. There's just a desperate need for that outside run and balance around the contest.

After watching Casey today I don't want to think about the depths of our shallowness.

Given that we've still got players in the MFC 22 who either aren't quite ready or aren't quite good enough, it shouldn't come as a surprise there are a bunch of players playing at Casey who aren't ready or aren't good enough.

IN: Gawn, Viney, Jetta
OUT: Pederson, Watts, Stretch

We don't have the depth. I agree if Viney and Jetta are fit bring them in however any other changes are not going to change a thing. It's more than just skilled players we lack, it's that competitive nature and desire to not want to lose that we lack.

Didn't watch the game, checked on the scores online twice. Felt much better and more relaxed for not watching another sub par performance.

Out- constantly bombing long to garlett vs 3 defenders

In- A forward line

Neal Bullen Harmnes and White will hopefully be in the mix in the over the next month.

We have had a good chance to educate players against 2 great teams the last 2 weeks, Id go again and see if it pays off against the doggies. JKH stays in ( goal kicking practice thank you )as does Wattsy Spencil ( jesus lift ya game son ) and even the Toump .

If anyone comes out for injury and the three youngins mentioned above are not quite ready with loading id go with Bail Jamar or Fitzy.

I reckon Smith at Casey could add to our mix maybe we look at him next year as a rookie

Pace is the key.

Viney,Jetta ,Fitzy

For

Newton,Dawes,watts.

Jkh is quick and we need quick.

Not perfect yet but he brings good energy.

I don't mind your team with Toumpas and Newton being the other two interchange.

JKH can't kick a goal to save his life.
