Let’s hope he remains injured for at least next week. Dangerous player.

He is out for a while, I double checked.

I fear he is a tad slow to play HB.
Yeah I can see that. I more thinking he’s a fairly good kick and can possibly play a role similar to Daniel’s in that we know he can get it as well as receive it and use his good kicking skills to set up the wingers.
Whatever happens, I just hope that if Macrae is in, he’s playing the role he’s played in the VFL.

Gave me a chuckle DG.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
Bailey Williams saved by losing 2 defenders.
JOD has to come in - Macrae in as well? Baker gets elevated into the team, not sub.
Out: Coff & Richards.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
Out: Richards (concussion), Coffield (shoulder), Poulter (omitted)
In: Cleary, Garcia, Macrae
Backs:
Jones to Darling
Khamis to Waterman
Bramble to Cripps
JJ, Dale, Williams, Cleary
Mids:
English, Darcy rucks
Bont, Libba, Treloar, Macrae, Sanders, West/Garcia rotating through centre bounces
Baker, Gallagher, Caleb on the wings
Forwards:
Naughton, Marra as keys with resting ruck
Cody deep
VDM, West, Garcia (rotating with mids) as pressure forwards.
Garcia is the sub.
That team has more than enough to take West Coast, if they bring energy and effort. Stifle ball movement, kill it around the contest, and take our chances forward.

Yeah he's out for 8 weeks or so, they don't really have many tall forwards to contend with, Darling 191, Maric 196 and Waterman 192cm. with maybe one of Williams or Barnett resting up forward.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
Side note: any chance Bont misses? He's a very durable guy but it was a bad roll of his ankle. I'd prefer we give him a week to rest if needed, than have him at 80-90% for a month.
Macrae could be a straight swap for him...
Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
Is JOD ready to go this week? We are going to need some cover for Richards and Coffield. Richards is a massive loss to cover.

My thoughts too.

I think so, once he clears the protocols

He should come straight back in then.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
Poulter looked like that was his first preseason session after a long holiday, we will have a few forced but I'm not sure we can play him again after that. Westy had a tough day but I want to see him play again, we drop him too quickly after a bad performance.
I'm also not convinced JOD has done enough at AFL level to bring him straight in after basically no preseason games and now a concussion. I think we use Keath and let the kid build some fitness first.
Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 3 vs West Coast Eagles
How did Keath play in the VFL?
