Always Right Match Committee Thread Round 23, Vs Adelaide

[Grantysghost]

We can't have Trengove and English and Young and Cordy and Naughton and Schache.

One had to go. I am very surprised it is JT but that's Bevo.

Young out. Surely. One game against zero forwards. Ridiculous.

[Prince Imperial]

Cordy incredibly lucky to be playing ahead of Trengove given their respective form this year and the latter's ability to go in the ruck.

[comrade]

Feels like it's been about 8 weeks since we had a Crazy Bevo reaction the match committee thread!

Great way to reward a guy that's got you this far. I expect he won't be happy.

JT out wow. I didn't see that coming to be honest. I would agree that it would have to be for match up reasons but I thought he was an important part of our back line. We defended last week pretty good while he was in the ruck so I'd say that would be partly the reason he misses also.

We have been waiting for a while for Lewis Young to mature into a KPD and now after last weeks good performance, this is a chance to build on it and potentially play finals with the big boys. I loved his game last week. He marked the ball when he had to and punched the ball when he had to. Good signs.

I am excited to get another look at Westy's lad again too.

Anyone know what Dickson's injury is?

Received a knock to the head last week

Even though Young played well, are we taking a risk in such an important game?

My heart palpitations when I read the ins/outs had me thinking the same. That said, if the Crows really get a hold of Young we probably could switch him into the ruck for a spell with Naughton back and English forward.

Wouldn't be surprised if JT misses.

I'm not who does he play on?

I would still argue that we could’ve played Trengove in place of West.

Was fine for the Eagles a couple of weeks back against the Crows to go with Barrass, McGovern, Schofield, Hickey, Kennedy, Darling and Oscar Allen (not including Hurn) against the same talls that the Crows have this week with the addition of Keath for Otten.

Whilst the Crows tall aren’t gorillas per se they are experienced bigger body talls than ours.

It worked out OK for Collingwood the other week to go in small against the Crows so hopefully it does for us as well.

I would’ve preferred taking in Trengove over West and have Cordy play the utility.

All of the Eagles talls are more mobile than JT (and Cordy/Young to be fair) plus they’re all more dangerous aerially. Don’t forget, Adelaide’s running game gave the Eagles some trouble that day.

[Grantysghost]

Fogarty. He's a big boy 195 and 100.

Fogarty. He's a big boy 195 and 100.

He isnt fast or agile enough imo for Fogarty. Wood should get him. Hes not a gorilla KF.

[1eyedog]

Has under 20 games under his belt perfect for Young.

Which is the perfectly reasonable hypothesis that has no doubt been decided on by our MC.

Surely you are extracting the urine. Maybe I've been second hand smoking something I shouldn't. JT completely destroyed Tom Lynch earlier in the year and that's just the one I can remember.
