Red and Blue realist 2,063 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 If TMac is really done for the season then bring in Weid and play him for at least the next 6 games. He's been better than BBB, and offered more than M.Brown, but time to see if he will really make it and not change him in and out all the time. 2

Mr Steve 3,820 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 Watched the VFL today and only Rivers Baker and Weid played well enough to get a call up. 1
dazzledavey36 56,334 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 I said last week that Sparrow had a poor game and wouldn't get dropped but tonight he was as bad as I've see him play. I'd drop him personally. Dropping Ben Brown is the easy option but there is no way bringing in Sam Weideman improves us at all. If anything it makes us worse because he's he's not an AFL standard player time and time again. I have no idea what the changes will like, but I can easily reel off 5 names I would drop straight away. 2 1

Lord Nev 13,512 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 People are either entrenched in their anti-Weid glasses or didn't go to the game if they honestly think Ben Brown should stay in ahead of him after tonight. 7

Daw can chop out #1 ruck until Bbb finds some form. Agreed, Max is undoubtedly the better forward, but unfortunately he is also about three times better than Jackson in the centre. I'd probably play Jackson forward unless Daw is a complete liability in the ruck. We need two Gawns. Edited June 4, 2022 by leucopogon 1

Brown has about 100 good games up on Weideman. Even when out of form Brown still takes away the best defender. He is that much better than Weideman ever has or ever will be. Having said that, Mitch Brown is a bad bandaid and we need to bring Weideman in and let him play the year out with BB because there are no other options. 5 1

Brown was shi te But Weide was shi te last week, and somehow managed plenty of lead up possession in the Casey game... ?? Honestly, I cgaf if it was BBB or Weid next week, but M Brown and Fritta provided the options tonight 1

Take off the ginger goggles. History of good games means absolutely nothing. 4

History of good games means absolutely nothing. When was the last time Weideman wasn’t poor playing senior footy? 2018? Weideman commands 0 respect from the opposition. You drop BB and suddenly Fritta has to play on a FB twice his height. 8
Fat Tony 5,337 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 How did McDonald go from being selected to out for the season? What’s the source on his injury? 1
homsar 431 Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 Well. I’m not panicking as much as you all. That was a 50/50 game just like the swannies game last year. A few umpiring decisions change and so does the result. We are 10-2 and have a lot of improving to come. In: the best defender in the comp, a Salem and Harmes with a game under their belt Out: poor old Tomo We will beat the Pies by our usual 2-3 goals. Hope you lot turn up to the game. 3

Probably when he kicked 3 against the Tigers in round 6, or maybe when he kicked 4 in round 3... Here's a brief comparison for this year of that 'historically good' Brown vs the 'disrespected' Weid. GOALS Brown 1.7 Weid 1.5 MARKS Brown 3.2 Weid 3.2 TACKLES Brown 0.6 Weid 1.2 DISPOSALS Brown 8.1 Weid 8.2 CONTESTED MARKS Brown 0.8 Weid 1.3 It's bizarre how people stick to their perceptions now matter the factual evidence. Brown is badly out of form. 6

Is there any veracity to this claim beyond a rumour from the gameday thread alleging TMac told some random spectator at the G that he was having surgery and would be out for the year? Seems an unusually detailed set of information to relay... 🤔 Edited June 4, 2022 by gs77 2
