Outs: jones, Hibberd (inj), Spargo

 

Ins: Harmes (to play Jones role), Jetta, fritta

Have to look at Jones, Hannan, vandenBerg, Pickett, Spargo and OMac (depending on Sydney's structure).

With so many mid/small forwards on the chopping block, surely now is the chance to get Harmes back into that half of the ground?

Fritsch also gets one of those spots.

TMac doesn't get back for Brown (or anyone else). Wagner holds his spot, I think. Lockhart replaces Hibberd if Hibberd's injured. If he gets up, not sure what we do with Lockhart. He probably misses again.

I want Oscar McDonald out and never picked again. Sydney aren't tall, and I thought he was terrible. 

His turnover kick, inboard from half-back/wing with no pressure on him + my subsequent reaction, abruptly ended the life of my Sony Bravia television.

OUT:

Hannan cannot hit a target. Pickett, runs to wrong spots and cannot keep his feet, just too costly to keep him in.

Bennell in for Pickett who was terrible tonight

Fritsch in for AVB

Harmes in as a forward for Hannan

Oscar out for Lockhart possibly or Jetta  

May to Canberra as Minister for Defence !

He is perhaps the worst AFL player right now.  Never to play again. 
But goody loves him. They were laughing around after the siren.

Out: Hannan, Kozzie

In: Bennell, Fritter

If Hibb's ankle doesn't come up, maybe Lockard (for Papley)

Would keep Rivers, Wags and Brown for the time being

Pickett seems overawed and gets few possessions and has little idea of what to do ball in hand - replace with Hunt.

Harmes to replace Hannan.

Spargo has lost his Sparko, replace with Bennell.

Oscar is never going to be a gun but having him improves the impact usually from May and Lever. It also allows them  to get a bit more aggressive on the rebound so I’d rather him in.

I love Jonesy for the warrior he’s been for us but his lack of speed and turning the ball over is really hurting him. I think he might be nearly finished which is very sad to see.

Maybe him out and allow Harmes to take his role on the wing or forward of the ball.

Fritsch back in for Kozzie. I’m a fan of the kid but his brain is working too quick for his body. I’d rather give him some games in the twos and kick a few bags. 

If not Kozzy then Hannan out. Not his best night but someone needs to make way for Fritsch

I said this in the game day thread and I’ve thought it for a while now: he’s not good when the ball hits the ground which is a huge issue for his position.

He simply doesn’t get down low enough to pick the ball up cleanly.

OUT Jones nearly lost the game for us,

Pickett to much flair & no footy basics

Omac not up to it

 

INS Fritsch

Bennell

Hunt (bit of run might help)

Don't be surprised if Corey Wagner gets a call up for Kozzy. Has apparently been dominating in the lower level and could slot in to give Koz a rest.

I know Spargo only had 7 disposals but he made some crucial tackles and I thought his pressure was better then most forwards.

Fritsch, Bedford and Hunt/Jetta in

Picket, Hannan and Hibberd (managed) out

I don’t like Wagner ball in hand I just don’t trust him, but probably did enough to earn another game

Need to see a lot of changes IMO. I would prefer fresh depth players to be picked than our tired fringe players. We have to back up again 4 days later. 
 

Harmes, ANB, Tmac, Lockhart, Fritsch, Jetta, Bennell and Hunt should all be strongly considered for the Sydney match.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
