Changes vs St Kilda

[DemonLad5 1,642]

I know it's early after a win but still

Oscar won't play.

Surely some players will pull up sore.

Hopefully, somebody mans up on Reiwoldt this time.

[What 18,810]

Petracca out, he looks cooked.  Could barely run at times.

Oliver?

[JV7 2,351]

There will be some changes to freshen the side up. Oscar will miss, wouldnt be suprised to see Oliver & Bugg in for Stretch & Petracca they both look like they need a rest. Not sure if Garland, Dunn or Wagner for Oscar 

[Chook 15,013]

Jesse Hogan will be hoping the football department decides to actually pick 22 players this time around against St Kilda instead of just sending him out to go it alone.

[M_9 2,082]

Not sure that a rolled ankle would keep O Mac out but you'd have to think Liam may be a chance.

Surely McCartin couldn't be back two weeks after his third concussion?

[spirit of norm smith 16,450]

outs... o.mcd, Kennedy, Petracca

ins... dunn, michie, Oliver

[jumbo returns 6,741]

Players were out on their feet, except for Jones.

In the last 50 seconds he sprinted 50 metres to create an option. Amazing endurance.

Ben K for Bugg

Oliver for Petracca

Wagner for O Mac

Pretty sure BenKen was out there. Maybe Bugg for BenKen.

Wagner for Oscar would be a good replacement but I thought Wagner was a bit longer out?

 

[Bang Bang Bang 5,826]

No real point guessing the specific ins and outs but I'd expect 4-5 changes. The Casey players will be fresh as a daisy after the bye and our younger pups will be cooked after the Darwin conditions.

Don't think we'd bring Bugg back in without him having played a game at Casey. Also, if you're going to drop Ben K, need to bring in a forward.

I'm not sure what you're pointing out here....?

Probably one of the more fortunate side-effects of Casey seemingly having a bye every second week.  Actual fresh players in a week we'll truly need it.

[DubDee 25,854]

8 day break is handy. 

Garland in for O Mac

then if players sore or tired Oliver and Wagner the next two cabs off the rank

[Jaded No More 68,913]

Here's a nice change, a win against St Kilda. 

[DemonLad5 1,642]

OUT: Petracca, Stretch, O.Mac

IN: Oliver, Wagner, Bugg

[DeeSpencer 25,687]

Out: Garland, Oliver, Bugg

In: Oscar (inj), White (unlucky), Grimes

FB: Jetta  Frost   Garland
HB: Vince T Mc   Hunt
C:  Stretch Tyson  M Jones
HF: Kent  Petracca  Ben Ken
FF: Garlett Hogan  Watts
Foll: Gawn  Jones  Viney
Int: Vanders  Oliver  Bugg Harmes

I'd rather White or Wagner than Garland but against the Saints you have to see who the best match up for Membrey (as well as Bruce and Riewoldt) will be and I think it's Garland. Similarly White is unlucky to miss out but the saints have so many quick and hard pressure small forwards so we need smaller quicker defenders like Vince and Harmes back there instead of the slower Wagner or White who have a lot to offer against slower teams. 

With Vince to half back I'd pick Oliver to give us another midfielder. Bugg for some fresh legs and he's fiery which we need.

If Ben Ken, Vanders or Petracca need a rest I'd throw Hulett in and go tall. Not sure ANB, Newton, Trengove or Michie have much to offer at this stage as half forwards. 

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,754]

Vince was clearly struggling with a sore lower leg. Hopefully it won't keep him out though.

The only player who was really poor tonight was Garlett, so I can't see why anyone would be dropped for poor form. However, if players need a rest, I could understand changes being made.

Am I not meant to be consistent? 

[Diamond_Jim 12,578]

Laughable

you are talking about resting players

In another thread they are saying no difference to the hawks in tasmania

typical MFC.....all over the place.... and yet.... more games in the hell hole !!

[Adam The God 30,239]

Harmes is a messy player and at this stage looks to be a fringer. Petracca looked stuffed half way through the first quarter. I'm not sure they'll bring Bugg straight back. Oliver seems a likely in, as does Wagner. Given the fast deck and the taxing conditions tonight, I'd be inclined to rest a couple. Petracca, Stretch, Harmes and Kennedy probably in the gun.

[stuie 7,374]

IN: Wagner, Bugg, ANB
OUT: OMac (injured), Stretch, White

Wagner would have come in anyway, but with OMac likely to miss that's an obvious swap. Bugg in to tag Jack Steven, and ANB in to provide run while Billy has a rest week after Darwin. Love Oliver, but not sure Etihad is the best venue to bring him back in, we need run.

 

[Pates 9,660]

I get the feeling they will look into possibly resting players after the Darwin trip, they were out on their feet at the end. Omac seems to be the only forced out though, Vince played out the game so I suspect it was just a knock and lighter duties through the week will see him to Sunday's game.
