How must Hore be feeling after 2 or 3 very good games at Casey, to still be behind Oscar in the pecking order

Last week was Hore's first game back after missing 3 weeks

[Older demon 2,779]

Mac as backup ruckman .....really. I hope Drysdale is correct and there are late changes ie Hore and Stretch. Oscar can never say he wasn't given opportunities

I legit cannot in the world find a simple Match up for McDonald.  

The only reason I can think of is that we are now officially tanking for Noah Anderson. 

They’ll literally run circles around those defenders. Baffling selections.

OMac retains his spot and no Hore. Goodwin said Collingwood have some really good smaller players so we’ll need players who can play on big and small. Watch their forwards run rings around OMac. I give up. 

OMac can play on smalls and talls. Just very, very poorly!

That won't get them far ET!   Might make them dizzy, though.  Cunning plan?

No he’s  played the  last 2 games

[Parmalove 91]

I'm so over this. I can't believe Hore isn't named against a forward line with one tall.  I know May and frost can play on smalls at times. But ATM are out best two stoppers of big forwards.   Lever doesn't have an opponent as he floats and intercepts.  But to have them in back half with a slower Hibbard this year and then  McDonald is not able to take the big boys this year and is not smart enough to take the smalls is ridiculous.  I totally don't understand. Goodwin please stop treating us as complete fools.  What the hell is going on. 

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

Very tall for a wet day. I am staggered. I just dunno what they are thinking. We will be killed on ground balls alone

[DeeZee 7,445]

I’m ropeable about Hore being left out.

Tanking?

Question:

'Oscar played again after being dropped because Steven May got injured, not on the back of form at Casey. So if it weren't for Steven May's injury, Oscar would still be in the VFL and the 'myth' would be a truth. Would it not?' 

Answer:

Apparently not

He's named on the bench.

Perhaps he'll be a late out or perhaps May will spend some time forward.

[Roger Mellie 4,103]

I'm thinking (preying) for late changes.

Either that or May / O'Mac up forward. O'Mac spent a quarter up forward at Casey some weeks ago. It wasn't pretty

 

[DeeZee 7,445]

It’s perplexing as to what happened to OMac really.

He wasn’t too bad last year and seemed to be tracking ok.

This year he has turned into a complete spud.

2nd, he played against Sandy as well and was an absolute wall in the 3rd qtr and set up that win

Can’t have that when yr tank...er, experimenting 

[Pates 9,660]

Don’t see how Hore doesn’t come in for either Wagner or OMac. 

With May, Lever, and Frost in the line up Oscar not only feels like we’re going in with poor match ups but two turnover merchants in Frost and Oscar. Hore may also have those issues but at least he’s able to take a defensive mark. 

OMac and Frost should not be in the same team unless absolutely necessary.

Petty.

May forward.

OR pending the weather they may drop OMac all together and bring in Hore. It's a very tall backline for a possibly wet and windy day.

I'm surprised as anyone Omac is in. May forward might well be the reason.
