who to replace neitz

[WonnaJurah 5]

neitx looks to be out for a few weeks, robbo can mark but cant kick ( as with most of the team) who can we rely on now?

yze.. i like how we had a small forward line with green in it!! it worked soo much better and even the commentators said so aswell

Probably because we were a lot less predictable. But I like Green at FF for most, but not all the time.

[sylvinator 96]

Green, robbo n davey out of FF.

Dunn, Bate, Wanemira around Chf

[Chook 14,616]

This is blasphemous, but I believe we will be more competitive with David Neitz out of the side. With Dunn to come in next week, we may develop quite a versatile and potent forward line over the coming weeks

dunn played today though

we gotta keep jamar out of goal area or side, to many errors

Sorry. Mind-slip. I meant to say Bate.

[WonnaJurah 5]

thought you meant that , we def need bate in

Yep it's going be tough to replace Neitz.

Who else is going to provide us with 3 goals in 5 matches?

Neitz needs to go permanently

exactly. neitz has been contributing nothing this season. right at this point in time, we'll be a better side without him, but i do hope he gets himself right and finishes off his last season with some form and fitness he's been severly lacking.

[Chook 14,616]

What do you think he's thinking about all this. Playing on, bad form, injury, and a Club in crisis. Is he regretting not retiring, is he sad to see the club like this? It would be interesting to hear an interview with him in which he actually tells us what he's thinking, rather than just the stock-standard responses.

NEWTON

NEWTON

Sure. Who doesn't like juice?

[CARN THE DEES! 14]

Sylvia and Green rotating at FF is an option or just Green there because of Sylvia's form.

Newton depends of sandy form

Bate on injury

[Yencks 8]

bate...not newton. bate is sooooo soooo much better than newton and has more potential because he tries hard and has second efforts.

Jamar

ARGHHHHHHHHHH!

Bate is a must inclusion, and Miller will be back next week too (get over it ).

Time for Green to stand up and deliver. He was good up forward today and this is where he must stay.

It seems that for the first time in many years, our forward line is our biggest weakness. Sadly, we have nobody waiting in the wings to fill Neita's shoes at FF.

A smaller forward line could work if, like Bailey wants us to, we move the ball quickly (quickly does not equal "round and around until we see an opponent and [censored] ourselves).

I wouldn't laugh so much about Jamar.

Could be a bit of a surprise packet up forward if he has a half decent game.

When Paul Johnson comes back rotate him and White in ruck/forward pocket.

Old school resting ruckman style!

[Elmag 5]

Neitz - a great player but needs a tap on the shoulder - he and White sould both nominate the Collingwood Queens Birthday game as their last for Melbourne - time for them both to move on - greatplayers for the club, but the game has gone past them.

The game is now that quick, that in the forwrd line you just need one big physical mobile player and everyone else needs to be realy mobile - look at Haawthorn - basically all athletes (altough that Franklin guy has a bit of ability)

[gOLLy 401]

Jamar and Green for me

[Tassie Devil 28]

career ending injury for #9?

Roughead?

I hated posters who bag Neiter. He has been a great player/servant/role model etc. for our club. But till he was injured today, just watching him fumble, drop marks, hang on to the ball too long, unable to give off a quick handball or knock on to a player going past, was just plain embarrasing. It hurts to write this.

[Elmag 5]

I've met Roughead - he is one very impressive kid - he is pretty quick and if Hawthorn ever wanted to trade him, I'd grab him in a heartbeat
