T-Mac and Tommo in the same backline - no thank you!
-
I don't think you can have T-Mac and Tommo in the same backline. B Brown has to go based on Sunday's game but showed way better form than Fullarton at Casey last week. Hunter was horrible and deserves to be dropped from Casey. I like the idea of AMW getting a game but not if it's in the backline. Sestan goes missing for stretches of the game and Tholstrupp is NQR (Not Quite Ready). I don't think we can look to Casey for too many answers but my ins would be: Langdon and JVR. Fullarton could come in as sub (if the forward line isn't functioning, Petty goes back and Fulla comes on and goes forward). Out: Lever and BBB

Somewhere down round our ankles

Yes, That was a head-scratcher. I assumed it would be Billings and Windsor with Woey. I can understand why they picked Brown, with JVR out, but having an underdone MacAdam in the same forward line was another factor in the unravelling.

A combination of factors: Win was pencilled in Midfield has major issues and no depth Throw something curly at the Dees and we struggle to adapt Midfield: Clarry - attacks the contest but doesn't defend. When he gets the pill he blazes away. Might be better to just dish it off by hand. Trac - brilliant attacking player, but doesn't defend Viney - gives his all but when he's sending the ball forward it's mostly a turnover. Sparrow - defensive b grade workhorse That's pretty much it plus midfield - no depth May had a rare stinker and not on his own.

Taken game lightly F - F - S

Agree with this. If Salem doesn't get up, I suspect Laurie will get another crack with Woey coming into the side. Verrall and McAdams not ready and I don't think Fullarton's shown enough recently to warrant a call-up.

Hey @WalkingCivilWar, did you notice if Jake Bowey trained fully? He appeared to hurt his shoulder during the game and was subbed out not long after. Cheers

While I find it bizarre that anyone would expect anything from a Captain's Run, which is nothing but a loosener-upperer, I was there and have taken it upon myself to fill in the blanks and offer some insight: - Salem nearly tripped over a sprinkler but didn't - I definitely saw Harry Petty (or was it Jed Adams?) chew his nails - the weather was nice That's a wrap!

No thanks 🤢

Left field is my guess, a la Disco Turner.

Bowey in and Billings or Woey to sub. I can't entertain the thought of Hunter. While he has no trouble finding the pill, he doesn't do anything useful with it.
-
Geez. They've stopped dead. AMW prolific but I'd like the backline experiment to end.

Anybody know anything about Roy George?

He said, in his opinion, he was out the door as opposed to being intel in this instance* *wishful thinking

I've only seen him mentioned as a defender in the last year or so, but I suppose he could end up anywhere on the field: https://www.afl.com.au/news/1090427/inside-trading-battle-for-son-of-a-gun-roo-to-extend-cat-keen-to-stay -

I thought he (KW) played in the backline. -
I beg to differ. My Great Dane can clear a room.
