Match Committee: Round 10 vs St Kilda

[1eyedog]

Bit surprised they dropped both Jack and Travis . Great to see Tim English get a gig, and no Riewoldt or Bruce means a smaller forward line . Once again Bevo surprises

They're going to try to run us off our feet.

Bevo is the king of the curve ball

[comrade]

Seems unbalanced again. IMO, you need to play one of Redpath or Cloke, which allows something for Stringer to work off. English will only ruck 20%, which means Boyd again won't have a huge impact up forward.

Alternatively, we could have played Roberts and pushed Adams forward. McLean > Clay every day of the week, too.

I will never doubt Bevo but I don't think we're nailing selection night at the moment.

[ratsmac]

Here we are arguing whether Cloke or Redpath get dropped. What would we know? Bevo just goes whooshka and drops both.

[comrade]

Bevo is certainly dishing out some tough love to the likes of McLean, Libba, Cordy & Roberts.

[jeemak]

All but McLean had no real claim for a spot this week.

Yeah, my point is it's not like Cordy or Roberts were out of form prior to last week and were omitted likely due to match ups. Yet they didn't dominate at VFL level so don't get a gig. Tough love, you either knock the door or you're not in the team.

Does this mean Hunter moves up the ground with Biggs in the team

[GVGjr]

Dropping Redath, Cloke and Webb seems to be the right decisions but I would have preferred if it was done with Roughead coming back which would allow for Boyd to play forward. Roughead at Footscray however, didn't look right last week.

Pleased for English, he's been very steady the last few weeks and without Roughy it's a good selection.

Stringer has to step up against the Saints

Would be a strange decision for Bevo to play him in his natural position.

Stringer has to step up against the Saints

I have my doubts on stringer performing when not at 100 percent capacity.

[Go_Dogs]

Don't mind these selections at all - English has been performing well, whilst at their best Biggs and Stringer are two important players whose impact we've sorely missed.

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

Wonder if there will be a late change by Saints? Wonder whether they were expecting one of Cloke or Redpath to stay and maybe one of Cordy or Roberts to come in?
Nathan Brown doesn't seem to have the mobility to go with Stringer. Maybe Bruce a late in?

Carlisle will play forward and slaughter us.

Please don't say that
