Interesting that GWS losing streak has coincided with Strigger coming in - remarkable what a small tweak can do to a teams balance. We need to be careful We don't do the same with our forward setip. So I'd keep the forward line the same as howwe finished the game. We are far more potent with the small setup. JvR, Fritsch, Melks together doesn't offer the required pressure and none of them play as a lead up forward. Hawks rely on a lot of run, so I'd replace Petty with a midfielder or flanker; perhaps Woewodin who can be both. Can Adams ruck? Like the idea of Fritsch as sub.

I'm a huge Feitsch fan but I'd consider JVR for him and tell JVR to play a Jeremy Cameron role. Perhaps move Fritsch to sub. Bring in Campbell or Veral to be backup ruck for Fullerton. Even AJ. Note: what had worked for us is two talls in the backs and 1.5 talls in the forward. We need to keep that mix.

Premiership coaches at a second or third club invariably fail. Can only think of Mathews being successful. Often a successful coach will generate a lot of assistants coaches who then become good coaches - so with this in mind Who's rhe assistants at Geelong and Brisbane? Love Nathan Jones, but he doesn't look like the answer as midfield coach. At least not yet.

Agreed, though the amount of talent coming through gold coast Academy's mean Players like Touk, Flanders, etc Will get pushed out quicker; or at least pushed to the periphy. He's also a Vic boy after all. Plus I understand has leadership quality in spades. If we lose 1 of Trac / Oliver I'd chase Touk for the quality experience and keep the other first round for the draft! Noting they are not looking for early picks; I'd offer late first round and change which they can convert into multiple picks (points). Is there a tall there as well we could chase. Could King get pushed out with the quality they have coming through.

Oh and most recent premiership sides trade in kept players (particularlykey position) to compliment their existing talent. For example Brisbane - Daniher, Dunkley Collingwood - Howes, Hill Geelong - Cameron, Tuohy Melbourne - May, Lever Richmond - Lynch, Prestia Very few teams produce all tbeir own talls. Delve a little deeper and if they produced their own talls then they've brought in Midfielders. Oh and theses are example of chasing required players, not bargains or "be assembled they are available"! Seems to be a bit of a pattern.

Butters would be a good fit; and compliment both present a d future midfield. I'd also sound out Touk Miller, as the amount of Talent coming through GCS now and future Academy intakes will push out good players quicker. Callum Brown fro. GWS could compliment our forward line. I'd also look at North's midfielders as they wont all fit and you should be able to squeeze one out. Powell would be my target but LDU is more possible. Expect Tim Kelly is also gettable, but is he still interested in footy? Whay aren't we throwing the world at Brayshaw!!! Bring him home.

And only May and Tmac attack the ball in air - our forwards tend to wait for the ball to come to them.
