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.

Fairly short break going up to the hot and humid Cairns.    Luckily the same day break as the Swans. 

There will definitely be a few changes.

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.


I’m sorry to say this but I’m thinking Neal Bullen will get recalled. 

Ins. Lockhart. Fritsch  Bedford  Baker  Bennell Harmes 

outs.  Hibberd (inj). Hannan Pickett (managed) Vandenburg Spargo omcd 
 

Lockhart May lever
salem. Tomlinson. rivers
langdon. Viney.  Brayshaw
Melksham Brown Bennell
fritsch. Weid Bedford
Gawn  Trac. Oliver. 
Harmes Baker Jones wagner

Out: Jones, Spargo, Hannan
In: Harmes, Bedford, Fritsch

 

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.

No Way Do Not Want GIF

IN : LOCKHART, FRITSCH

OUT: OSCAR, HANNAN

Jones lucky 2 costly turnovers he's playing for his career.

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.

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
