    Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 5 Vs Gold Coast 2021

    Out - Vandermeer, Scout, McNeil and Martin

    In - West, Lipinski, JUH and Sweet. Vandermeer as the sub.

    I would love West in as he needs to be given a chance to hold down a spot in the side. I also think it’s time to see JUH. Was told he hadn’t yet got the tank to run out a game. It will not matter against GCS and it will set the media and support base on fire.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Out: McNeil, Martin

    Go in with English + Young to chop out in the ruck, rest Martin and give West a run from McNeil. Vanders is next in line for a period back at VFL level, but he escapes this week. Wally next man in for me.

    No way I would be resting Martin, he is in good form and won the ruck duels yesterday. Lets keep him going and if he needs a rest, then maybe mid season to get him ready for the run home.

    Out Scott

    A few points
    - With McNeil, I think a lot of is to do with his explosive speed and role it allows him to play in the side. I am not saying I am sold on this and he isn't getting into the game enough but it isn't just about picking the 22 best individual players. We have a stacked midfield, picking the next best midfielder probably isn't going to work.
    - Stef being rested, it's really hard to tell without being in the inner sanctum. He is providing us a lot of value both directly in contest and how he frees up English. In terms of resting, English and Stef have more of a shared ruck partnership than most, so he is getting his rest there too. If a rest is best, great, would like to see Sweet in. If not, cool.
    - Appreciate Scott is a disciplined player, fits the aforementioned role thing but he is definitely on the side of not doing enough for mine.

    In: Lippa
    Out: Scott
    Medical Sub: Scott (I think mainly just because it is easier with the VFL guys missing this week and a nod to Scott's attitude)

    We may or may not need to manage him but as you point out this is the week to consider it.

    I think we will go in unchanged but West and Lipinski must be in the mix with Scott, McNeil and Vandermeer fortunate that the team is winning.

    I’d love to get West in also but I’m not sure what other role he can play other than midfield.

    He struggles to stay in the game and isn’t overly quick.

    Lipinski is ahead of West as the next cab off the rank.

    Blokes that would be spoken about would have to be:

    McNeill
    Scott
    Laitham

    The first two are a few weeks into a decent crack at senior footy, have had some good moments but I can't see them holding out the sort of players that are in the mix outside the team currently. Bevo obviously sees them bringing something to the table, workman like attributes, hard running, a bit of pace? Lachie I'd like to see him settle a bit more and make the most of his chances. Scott is the first one to drop down a level for a bit I suspect.

    Dutch has been down a little on early performances. I'd like to see him work through it in the ones, but if West or Cavarra, or Mitch can bring their talent and point of difference to the fore, then he'll have to make way at some point too. I'm backing him into pick up again. Important player for us.

    The league will want to send a message to Caleb and find a way to suspend him.

    Out Daniel (susp), in Lipinski. Scott to take Caleb’s small defensive role, Lip to rotate through wing and half forward.

    The Brisbane player somersaulted himself with forward momentum talk about adding mayo.

    Don't like to see it but the Daniel suspension makes sense. Even if he's sometimes inconsistent, the MRO does like to go hard on anything involving the head and it looked to me like the Brissie player was pretty much piledriven. We all know Daniel didn't mean to do it, he's not that sort of player, but one week makes a lot of sense in this environment.
