Re: WB Game Day V Melbourne - 2021 AAMI Community Series
Who replaces Corizer in Defence? Without him coming across to help out, I think we need to add another tall. Id go Young let's see what he can do for the period. If we are too tall on some occasions I think we can let Keathy get more dangerous, he is more than just a lockdown defender.
I have a feeling if we go 2 rucks though, Bevo will go short for team balance hence Scott/JJ more likely to play.

I think Khamis would be a good like for like replacement in terms of skill set. Huge ask for a debutant though.
Collingwood doesn't really have too much height up forward that requires the constant third man up/spoiling that Crozier loves doing, so I'd go with Duryea to offer some good defensive positioning and kicking. Has to keep his feet though.

Yeah i still think we need to come across Cox and help. They generally play 2 rucks also hence Cameron might start forward, it is possible we have Timmy go back at times for sure.
He is a nice kick Khamis, defensive spoiling coming across look great but as soon as the ball hit the ground looks well off the pace.
Is Doc available thought he was underdone? I think he is best 22 also. I'm just not a fan of having DOC, Caleb and Williams for defensive cover with Keathy and Gardner as the 2 main talls think we will get exposed even against Collingwood.

I much prefer Naughton forward as a player, but for team balance he has to play a swingman role. If we play one less runner he goes back during redtime in each quarter because that's the danger period.

Being too tall isn't a problem providing every time you get near it you mark it. :)
