Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 14, Vs Collingwood

[Rocket Science]

NOW Bevo's going to start swinging the axe ruthlessly?

So Richards back to see if he can make a better fist of McLean's high half forward role ...

Feel a bit for Toby, reckon he and we are better served with him spending more time on ball. What's he going to learn running around for the Scrays?

I think this has been our issue. We have too many mids rotating through the middle and resting in the forward line. We need specialist goal kickers not mids trying to be forwards.

Even when Toby has been on the ball, he has been struggling so not surprised he is out.

[The Pie Man]

Haven’t seen much of the game (no net in the Coral Sea) but 18 touches and a goal *looks* like a reasonable game on paper.

Hmmmm

I’m starting the day at the VFL at the Whitten Oval 11am

It still is this week win or loose. Half back flankers playing mid and forward same thing. West has played small forward role and can obviously apply pressure should be playing this week. Ive been looking for a HBF in the outs struggling to find one.

Lol, McLean dropped. I was happy with selections until I sqw that omission.

Yes asking blokes to play roles outside of their natural forte in a team that's variously struggled in all areas of the ground certainly continues to pay dividends.

[Nuggety Back Pocket]

Can't see De Goey playing at full back NBP.

I still think Naughton is better suited at full back. I just hope we do not see a repeat of Charlie Curnow’s 7 goals. We have been regularly having 100 points plus kicked against us in recent weeks.

After a great 2018, Toby McLean must have thought season 2019 was going to be his 'summer of George'. Thanks to match day tactics as to his role and now the selectors, it's truly has been his 'season of Tobes'.

Maclean Wood and Richards have all struggled this year having failed to adjust to unfamiliar roles.

McLean, Wood, Richards. Webb too. Williams was training with the mids all preseason and has gone backwards now too. And the output of shoving other mids to the forward line like Macrae & Libba has hurt. Dunkley was struggling until he was luckily played his best role. I'm not sure in VFL it gets much better, is Lynch a forward or defender, and is Le Young a ruck/defender/forward? I freely admit I have no idea what we are doing, or if it's working. But my guess is it's not working.

Toby has been down on form from last year's efforts but I didn't think he was that bad that it warrants dropping him. He has probably not kicked enough goals I suppose but apart from that I thought he was playing half forward (tricky position) pretty well. He tackles well and seems to create opportunities to score so it seems a quite harsh decision to me. Anyway obviously they coaches want more from him and want him to fix his deficiencies at Footscray.

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

I'm guessing a review of the Blues game has revealed some things during the periods Carlton came hard that made Tobe's demotion ne essary.
From an outsiders point of view, Toby seemed no worse than of recent weeks; I can only presume he has failed to meet some non-negotiables and thus finds himself in the VFL.

[Bullies]

Dickson has offered us absolutely nothing this year yet keeps his spot. Bevo's skate boarding buddy Smith comes in. Surprised then he didn't play the injured Gowers. He will have all his buddies in the team soon.

We will lose guys like McLean who will go to another club and dominate playing in their right position.

Maybe he should take up skate boarding?
