I've seen several examples where players have bumped into an umpire without even knowing they were there and possibly get fined at the most. Expand If they didn’t think it was intentional, they would have fined him already. I assume they also would have got the umpires opinion before laying the charge. Quote

Dee tention 619 Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 I think Spargo gets a rest. 0 tackles against the Suns. I would think Garlett would be his replacement but Bugg is competing for the same spot also... Question is Garlett or Bugg? I would take Bugg on form but think he is unlucky here. Garlett will get nod before indeiginous round. Weideman might get a rest with Sparky this week also. They can work there magic in the VFL. Tim Smith is his logical replacement with Pederson also competing for this spot. Tim Smith is rewarded for his form. Tyson and Petracca are both in the gun for sub par performances in the last couple of weeks. I think Petracca is more out of form but Tyson is more likely to go out for Viney. Like-for-like. OUT- Spargo, Weideman, Tyson IN- Garlett, T Smith, Viney Quote
BigFez 1,491 Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 I've been doing this thing lately where I quickly sneak around opposition forums leading up to our games against them. Not sure why. Maybe boredom, maybe just want to get an idea of how we are perceived by opposition club supporters. For the most part, we aren't even mentioned, it's more about their own lineup. They don't talk about who will match up on Hogan etc. One thing is for sure is that they don't suffer from their own form of CFCSS. Mostly very bullish about their chances. And then there was this.

Surely it's Vince that gets dropped he's had less disposals and less DE% than Tyson the last 2 weeks. Expand Some realisation on Vince's actual contributions may be necessary. He, too, could do with some recovery time at VFL level. Jordan has proven to be an onfield mentor and example with his communication, demonstrated poise and his astute, heads-up passing to advantage. Tyson needs some time out - and Viney should come in right now. Spargo has been interesting but Garlett is lethal for any opposition particularly when he applies that impressive fwd defensive pressure that seizes an opportunity to score. Get Hannan on the wing - to break free with his classy skills - and passing. Pedersen should come into the side particularly with a potentially weakened Carlscum (the Curnows at this time of the week / tribunal) and for muscled work ethic. The Weed needs a rest rather than a ride. Bugg on the bench could provide some real aggro - to flavour the match in support of the Viney return. He may even have learned to improve his scoring in the last fortnight. ANB should have a holiday, too. Carna Dees! Quote
Roger Mellie 4,205 Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 We are starting to move the footy fast enough and well enough for Jeffy to really capitalise and turn his opponent inside out. I love Spargo but happy for him to have a rest. It's Jeffy time! Viney - no brainer 5 Quote

Expand I was at the game on the weekend. I thought we need to do better in crumming from the marking contests inside 50. Yes, the game opened up in the second half. But the first half our pressure inside 50 and keeping the ball in was poor. Higgins for the Tigers has gone back to the VFL already after kicking multiple goals in the AFL. Spargo can do the same. Bugg and Garlett are pressuring for spots and are season footballers. It’s Sparkies first year. Weideman is doing well and contesting which allowes Hogan and T Mac to play up the ground. However, T Smith is banging down the door. Toss of the coin at selection. The question is can Tim Smith play Weidemans role better and for longer? Who comes out for Viney? Like-for-like. Left-foot for left-foot. Tyson for mine. Quote

whatwhat say what 23,880 Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 viney for tyson makes sense in terms of mid-for-mid, but the others under pressure would all the small pressure forwards like anb, hannan, plus spargo - didn't realise spargo had laid zero tackles; i still think he's a super handy player but when we won by 69 points and still out-tackled the oppo it's unusual for a pressure forward to not lay one as such, i guess garlett comes in in his place it's very hard to know what role viney will be able to play first up at afl-level - i understand he played 70% of game time, but how much was thru the midfield at casey? that's low for an afl mid, especially an inside clearance player vince and weideman are vital to our structure in my view, and i don't want either of them rested or dropped Quote
