Bates Mate 4,520 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Outs are correct, Spargo in seems to lack selection integrity Edited July 6, 2023 by Bates Mate 1
Billy 2,576 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 It’s a joke, so at this stage of their careers Brown & Melksham are a better bet than Van Rooyen FMD!! At least the Ashes are on 6
SPC 3,596 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Still making mistakes at the selection table. Petty forward, Tomlinson in, Grundy out would be better for balance. Good sides this year are going smaller more mobile. Edited July 6, 2023 by SPC 2

We are under the roof. wouldn't you want to see how Van Rooyen and brown work together? Why have 2 genuine two forwards when you can have one and a resting ruckman who hasn't played forward his whole career and another who can't kick straight and get in the way of the genuine forwards Edited July 6, 2023 by Bates Mate 4 1

BigBadBustling 455 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 When we say BBB, we mean Big Ben Brown right? Not Ben Brown or Bust!
bing181 9,473 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Can’t see why anyone would be complaining about Spargo in. He can find and hit a target and is our best I50 kick by a country mile. Just needs to get the pill … 2
JJR 681 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Suprised no dazzledavey named, calling most our players useless I reckon he’d have a better go. 2
Dee-monic 620 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Sensible changes. Spargo is no worldbeater but unlike Chandler is adept at finding space in the forward 50 and has good disposal skills. Woewodin has earned a start and Jordon will surely be a huge improvement on Harmes. The bad news about Oliver has opened the door for Jordon to prove he is worth persevering with. Van Rooyen for BBB is probably the only other change that might have been considered. At least we now know that Goodwin has apparently decided that Petty's place is definitely in the backline.
Bring-Back-Powell 15,555 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Higgins, Battle and Hill are handy outs. Higgins is the sort of player that will either kick 5.0 or 0.5. 3

Jaded No More 68,976 Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 With Woewodin and JJ as ins (and only one mid out), it definitely spells a mid going forward for longer periods. It obviously won’t be Viney, so that leaves Trac or Sparrow. They can definitely both rotate at half forward and make an impact. What concerns me is the lack of reliable goal kickers. Ben Brown aside, where are the rest of the goals coming from if Kosi doesn’t have a great game (and form isn’t on his side)? I’m all for playing to the ground conditions (would have been good to see that the last two weeks), but we don’t really give any forward mix a real go consistently. Smith in for 3 weeks, two of those weeks played in awful conditions. He wasn’t amazing, but he also was not giving us less than Melksham has, and is certainly much better defensively. This can’t be the forward set up we think we take to September, unless we are very confident Fritsch will be cherry ripe for finals, Gawn will start delivering up forward, and Ben Brown is going to return to 2021 form. Long reach there. 7

It'll be a very long rest come September if we lose this one. Lose and its pretty much over when you look at our games coming up this month.
