Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 16 Vs North Melbourne 2021
What about trying Schache down back? Could be a good week to experiment?
Would also love to see us give JUH one or two games now.

I think the consensus is that he lacks the intensity to be a defender

And if Schache is going to be tried back let's do it in the VFL first.

Exactly.

If we ever did a Members Q&A thing like other clubs have done recently, the question I'd ask is: why hasn't Schache been tried in defence.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

I guess it all depends on how we view Lewy Young atm.
Leading into Eagles game
KPD-ish back up: Lewy Young, Wood
KPF-ish back up: Schache, JUH
That's changed a lot now with Gardner and Wood out. Means it's Young or Crozier, I really want Young but the back up there has been reduced a lot.
I think it's the time for Schache to trial there now. Bevo mentioned him as a possible KPD back up as part of him going over to WA.

If Young does get a gig as a defender, Schache should be given a VFL defensive role.
I have doubts that his acceleration would allow him to make the transition at AFL level but Fletcher Roberts had some serviceable games and Sam Collins isn't quick either but is going well at the Suns.

That's the red hair strength. I know a few redheads that are the same. Deceptively strong. Fire!
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

Ed Richards pedigree is very good. His Grandfather Ron Richards was BOG in Collingwood’s 1953 Premiership and his brother Lou Richards was a Legend. Ed was very impressive against WCE and looks a certainty to become a regular in our best 22
Both Richards and Maclean add class and determination to our line up.

Maybe we go with Sweet. Less about this week and more about helping out English/getting structure in place if Stef were to come back. Reading VFL review, Sweet laid a heap of tackles and worked hard apparently.
Perhaps
In- Sweet, Lewy Young, Wally
Out- Hannan, Gardner, Scott ('managed')
Sub- Scott
I know a few changes but we've done it before after smashing sides this season. Only one dropped really.

Reading the write up of the the VFL and it seemed to me that Khumis was preferred to Young in the sense that he gives more drive from the backline.

Think it's between Buku and Young to take Gardners spot. Against norf i'd go Buku for that third tall with some mobility and playmaking.

Providing BT doesn't trade him away for peanuts NBP! We have to keep an eye on him.

I'd be OK with the one change for Gardner. Everyone in the side played their part on the weekend, so with that in mind I'm just going with Young for Gardner in lieu of us wanting to maintain the three tall defenders and Wood not a chance to come in.
The side that played did the job and they deserve a crack again.

Lew Young has to come in, doesn't he?
