    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 9 vs Port Adelaide

    Crozier is not a forward.

    I’d rather Weightman over Crozier forward.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Of course but you also cant discount experience. As many have mentioned Croz was pretty poor yesterday but he has the belief in himself due to being experienced to turn it around.

    If thats a player in his 3rd game he likely just plays out the game as poorly as they started it.

    Of those two I dunno who I would prefer. Maybe JJ as a forward? Purely because of his pace.

    With Crozier if he isn't getting a game as "general defender" then he doesn't play imo. He has shown nothing forward for us, and was only mediocre there at Freo, and has never looked like playing anywhere else. He can't be forced forward when we only have about 3 natural forwards and are already trying to run Hannan into form as that mid sized forward. Would much rather we just pick a forward instead of trying to find ways to maybe utilise blokes we refuse to drop.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    In: Young, Williams, Wally, Butler (if Hunter is out)
    Out: Khamis, Crozier, Lippa, Hunter (if out)

    Crozier maybe some reinventing as a forward with Footscray?

    Crozier just played his best game in ages. If we didn’t drop him before there’s no shot we’re dropping him now.

    His last quarter was good but before that I had him as one of the worst on the ground. He was awful in defending, turned the ball over, didn't go up once when he should have and on most other occasions kept flying for the ball and leaving his man on the ground free to pick up and run away with the ball.

    That last quarter may have saved him, but he's lucky if he survives.

    Probably not the time to do it but Garcia had a good game on the weekend has he got the tank to take Hunters place?
    Smart footballer but may be not against Port.

    I completely lost my shit when he did this in the 2nd qtr. He didn't effect the contest and whilst he was laying on the ground his opponent (Silvagni) ended up with ball in hand and streamed into an open goal.. lucky he missed.

    Crozier needs to get back to basics, or get back to the VFL.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    I was just having a bit of fun because he is always flying for the mark when 99% of the time he should be crumbing and pressuring.

    Would rather either go someone who offers more inside, like Wally, or outside, like Butler, than play Lip. He has to go.
    I also thought Zaine was good except for the kick over Macrae to Carlton.

    His ability to upset the balance of Casboult in a marking contest was good and he managed to interfere with quite a few forward moves by Carlton.

    I certainly have Crozier needing to go before Cordy.
