Harmes to hard tag Fyfe, Hibberd on Walters. Gawn should be able to massacre Darcy, despite how well he played last week against Ryder and Lycett. Of course Gawn should give Darcy a touch up however when he feeds the mids they need to look for a red and blue forward instead of bombing the pill. Be a nice change!
Red and Blue realist 2,063 Posted June 18, 2019 Posted June 18, 2019 28 minutes ago, whatwhatsaywhat said: interesting to see who mans up on hogan as he plays mostly up the ground and working back, which doesn't suit may as a 'last man back' approach I thin it'll be a combination of Frost and Lever, Lever when he moves up the ground, he can match him in the air and with the read of the play, while Frost when he goes deeper forward. They only have Cox as another tall forward, so May/Frost will have the right coverage there. my ins/outs: TSmith (for TMac), ANB (for Garlett) and Lockhart (for Wagner)

T Mac one last last chance. If the bye hasn't freshened him up physically and mentally he may have to have an indefinite spell in the 2's. Lock it
La Dee-vina Comedia 17,137 Posted June 18, 2019 Posted June 18, 2019 I wonder whether the coaching re-shuffle will also see some immediate player changes? Will, for example, Rawlings seek to make a statement by changing the mix in the forward line? 3
Demon3 2,541 Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Jake Lever in doubt for the weekend with a sore foot. Honestly if this si some sort of stress fracture, can we stop the world because i want to get off. 1

Freo spread like crazy. Getting as many runners through the midfield and wings will be vital to stop their run. So even though he's a limited player Stretch comes back in to run with Langdon or Hill. Time to give Jones a good run at half back to see if he can reinvent himself. Time to give Smith a fair go at it as the 3rd tall forward to see if that frees up Tom and Sam as it did for parts of the game against the Crows in Darwin. Petracca should get some midfield time as well. 1

TMac needs a rest, recuperation and respite. Lever should not play with a foot injury. ANB is a must, given Jeffy's form. Wagner could stay in. Lockhart needs to come in. Viney or Jones need to stay out to reduce 'bombing'. Time to bring in Preuss as a forward. Gus to the centre, and Clarrie to deep forward. Stretch and JKH could alternate on a wing and into a midfield roving role. Frosty to play at CHB and feed to midfielders or deeper fwd if he can get a run. Big demand this week on Tracca, Hunt and Harmes - mobility will be everything with these guys.

He's been there best intercept player so stopping him is a must
