wet weather...

[beelzebub 23,311]

Im just wondering if others would concur that it might be prudent to bring in Sylvia and/or Petterd given the track might be heavy and not suit the taller timber ?

PJ would be an obvious candidate for exchange... brings into question Dunn...yes yes..love to see him back but is this the right day ? Or do you retain Dunn and leave out Russian.. ?

just questions !! :-)

PJ doesnt rely on his marking and is good at ground level, so you would say he is a good big man to have in the wet.

I would leave out the Russian if anyone, I just dont think he offers enough around the ground and if it was wet, it would be reduced even further.

Sandilands just poses to be a real problem...

Agreed. I think its better to throw in sylvia or pettard - an in and under player. Sandi will be an issue certainly and i think both white and johnson will be a better combo than Jamar (who can play against less vital or game winning ruckman). I think its inevitable that we will be able to stop sandilands...except if pickett lines him up so i think its important to have our centre square players make sure that there are no freo players in space (a corrodor) who will run on from the tap.

I think we are a real chance in the wet. Not only because of the weather not suiting freos game style but also the fact that we should be able to get plenty of players around the contests.

Im very excited and going tomorrow due to feeling we actually have more of a chance than i thought we might. But to win, davey MUST have a good game. We need smaller players crumming the ball as it will be difficult to mark the ball. I would even open up the 50 with just Dunn, Davey, Green there with Miller playing in the backline. Might even throw C.Johnson into the 50, get the ball to the ground and use the speed on the slower, taller freo players.

Good luck dees

Dont think CJ is even in the 22 but i agree with bringing in Pettard for Jamar... no need for white pj and Jamar today

i want both in either rain hail or shine

If it stays wet speed and height won't be that important. Clean hands will.

I would leave PJ in; and probably even Jamar, as he will be our best bet against Sandilands whatever happens.

Sylvia, Petterd and Bizzell have all shown clean hands so far this year; and they have the added bonus of being able to find space and keep a cool head.

Go Dees
