Always Right Match Committee - Round 18 Vs Fremantle Dockers 2020

Even I can still get off the ground better than Mitch can! Some interesting actual statistics in that article though.

As for selection I'd be inclined to bring in Wood for Smith and have Duryea play the Smith role. It's a shame for Roarke as he's been pretty solid the past couple of weeks and deserves his spot.

Does Duryea have the tank and match fitness to play wing?

I'd look to Roarke Smith to play a Toby McLeans role of defensive stopper.

I think Lippa for McLean will be on the money. Woody will come in according to all reports. Whoever drops out will be unlucky. Could it be either Cordy or Gardner and Wood plays tall? Difficult decision.

So...who does Wood take out of Lobb, Hogan and Taberner?

We need THREE (3) talls against Freo, not 2.

True. Good point.

I would be a little surprised to see either Cordy or Gardner dropped, Wood is far better intercept value when he isn't forced to play tall.

Good shout, although I don’t really know who Roarke could play on. He’s not going to Fyfe/Brayshaw because that would mean he has to attend CBs, and Freo’s outside players are either shit (Acres) or washed (Hill). Maybe Serong, who is a very nice player but I suspect gettable by a tag at this stage.

Lipinski can do whatever it was Roarke was doing before and soak up McLean’s CBAs.

Yep. Might come down to Dureya. Not sure.

Either Hogan or Taberner, he'd have as much of chance as competing as Cordy will.

If we're playing Gardner then it has to be Duryea out, with Wood on Walters. If we don't I think we're better suited. Comes down to who we think is more likely to hurt us out of Lobb or Walters, which shouldn't be that hard of a question to answer.

We'll 100% play Gardner, and I think we play Duryea too. Cordy isn't a tall defender IMO, and isn't suited to any of Hogan/Lobb/Taberner (maybe Hogan at a stretch).

Wood on Hogan

Scrub this Ozza is right in the next post

Wood to Walters

[Ozza]

Cordy will be on Hogan, Keath will be on Taberner and Gardner on Lobb.

Wood will likely be on Fyfe for a big portion given that Fyfe spends to much time forward now.

What’s with the random Ben Graham mention?

Oh i see it’s the herald sun

That is some random quote and no doubt a copy / edit failure at The Hun..

[merantau]

I really hope the boys come out firing, put a gap in them early and then steadily build on it. I want to see another performance where we are in control of the game for the most part. I don’t have heart problems but I couldn’t stand another finish a la the Geelong game. Our season is riding on this. We must have a pack mentality for the entire game. Numbers around the contest at all times. We need our tallest defenders to play.
