FB: Terlich Frawley Garland HB: Dunn Pedersen Strauss C: Evans Jones Howe HF: Tapscott Dawes Macdonald FF: Watts Fitzpatrick Davey Foll: Jamar McKenzie Magner INT: Rodan Trengove Kent S: Matt Jones OUT: Bail IN: Magner Who's under consideration at Casey: Magner, Blease, Taggert, Gawn, Toumpas, Spencer, Sellar, Jetta, Nicholson Who could be back from injury: Tom McDonald, ?Byrnes Who's under the pump to keep their spot: Matt Jones, Trengove, Rodan, Fitzpatrick, Evans (?needs a rest), Dunn, Pedersen, Strauss, Tapscott Regardless of whether we get a new coach nothing will really help in the way of changes, last week to this week showed that. I think the backline today all things considered did ok. Pedersen whilst not setting the world on fire deserves another shot. He took a couple of marks and had a dip. He's a nice match up for big Lynch and hopefully can't play him into form. Dunn isn't finding the footy and Strauss and Terlich both disappointed defensively today but were good with the ball. We persist. For the forward line I'm tempted to stick with Fitzpatrick to give him a decent shot. If he just had any kind of poise today he would've marked a couple and contributed instead of being a negative. Gawn has more upside in the ruck obviously but Fitzpatrick's speed and mobility is worth another week. Joel Macdonald did a good job. Tapscott has some credits in the bank, same with Davey. Kent was good today and Watts was Watts. 1 good effort with skill, 1 standing around a contest wasting space etc. Bail is just a waste of time at the moment, turn over machine. Midfield wise we just battled. But it's time to stop the Rodan merrigo round. He actually tried the second half and racked up some ball and 11 tackles. We persist with McKenzie. We persist with Trengove. Magner never should've been dropped and therefore he comes in for Bail. Evans has looked flat the last two weeks but again we persist as there aren't any options. Matt Jones was getting trounced today. We need him to be in the side and playing well so from that point of view I'm inclined to keep him and give him a shot as the sub to see if he can be a good impact player to get back in form.
