J Wagner and O Mac into the team.  Didnt bring in ANY speed

We are cactus

[Wiseblood 24,637]

With the above - happy with the changes overall, although I reckon Lockhart is a little stiff.  Thought he had been pretty good.

I like the Brown inclusion as is smart enough to just play his role, and can do so up the ground away from Weideman.

Bit mystified by the Josh Wagner inclusion, and same with Oscar, although Oscar coming in might mean we push Tomlinson back to a wing.

Rivers has speed.

Looks like we went with some experience, though.  Jones, Gawn and Brown bring plenty to the table in that regard.

On the face of it...

I don’t like it.

Lockhart dropped?! Horrendously harsh IMO, the more so given he was surely a good match up for Butler.

Desperation stations !!!!!

Six changes !!!!!!!! [censored] me !!!!

[Vineytime 847]

Beaten at the selection table, again....

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

Aside from Rivers.... so much for the "bringing in some pace/speed" call.

Lost two players with a bit of toe for one.

Saints will be licking their chops here and while we are always a chance, they 'should' win this one with relative ease me thinks.

[Jaded No More 68,887]

No idea what Lockhart did wrong to be dropped. Agree that we need an extra tall down back given Saints are quite top heavy up forward. Brown can’t do worse than Tmac and Harmes, well maybe if they played him in a correct position he may perform. 
Overall a big meh and god help us if we get smashed, as I suspect we will. 

[Ethan Tremblay 30,856]

Don’t really care much for the game, until Goodwin goes we’re going nowhere quick. Just looking forward to seeing Browntown kicking a back.

A bit going on this week it seems...

 

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

Saints by 57.   We are going to get flogged.

[faultydet 7,594]

Saints will belt us using the same method as every other time.

Speed, non stop running and 100% defensive effort.

Reckon this is a 40+ point loss coming up, and the heat will be right back on the coach.

Might be his last chance, bin.  

Saints play a tall forward line - they have named Battle, King, Membrey and Marshall there, with Ryder in the ruck, so I can understand his selection and our need for a little more height down there.

But with him OOC at the end of the year, he might get a few games here to show us why he deserves another contract.

[Bitter but optimistic 22,234]

How the [censored] long is it since Brown played a game ? And that was a shocker !!!!

I suppose he's been killing it at Casey.

[sisso 2,580]

These changes are ehhhhhhh....Wagner? Omac? 

[Moonshadow 17,676]

I have it on good authority that Tmac and Harmes have been put on JobKeeper

Edited August 28, 2020 by Moonshadow

[BW511 2,668]

With the season and possibly Goody’s career on the line, this is a mind boggling selection.

[dl4e 5,851]

That is the most utterly disgusting team we have picked all year. The ins include slow wet wags, I like the way they drop Lockhart and don't bring in someone to play on Butler. What is going to be. Tomlinson ?????? St Kilda would be wetting themselves looking at that side.

[Demons11 7,003]

Happy with the changes.   
O Mac to the resting ruckman 

May to King

Wagner deserves his chance by the sounds of things and surely can’t do any worse than what Harmes has been dishing up.  I’d also rather Rivers over Lockhart 

Edited August 28, 2020 by Demons11

[WERRIDEE 5,468]

O.Mac, Spargo and J.Wagner in that already 3 passengers. Worst side we have put in all year.

Two guys that can play.

O Mac's form this year has been ok and Wagner is capable enough and will provide pleanty of effort.
