If he wasn’t ‘JJ’ no way he’d have played nearly as many games. Five touches and no tackles from the quickest guy in our forward line is unacceptable. A goal and an assist is fine, but out of that he was invisible. Plus he can still pick and choose when he wants to go. With his speed you’d expect tackles and pressure and he gives neither most weeks. Forget this year, at $600,000 he needs to move to a club that wants a HBF. He’s not a forward and he’s not in our best 5 HBFs.
It could also be an indictment on our small forwards that he’s played the amount of games he has.

No VFL really sucks as we could do with the run for VDM who's speed and aggression would be good.
Don't piss off old people

If VDM has any level of fitness up he can play for Scott. Not like he’s gonna do less.
Otherwise I agree with just Cody for Bruce.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 22 Vs Hawthorn 2021
Surely Young comes in. Which one of Young, Cordy and Schache plays forward, to try and cover the Bruce role?

I think we need to restructure up differently and forget the Bruce role.
Young will be required because Hawks will try and stretch us in the backline, and Young can also relieve in the ruck.
In Young, Weightman
Out: Bruce and Garcia
FFC: Established 1883
Premierships: AFL 1954, 2016 VFA - 1898,99,1900, 1908, 1913, 1919-20, 1923-24, VFL: 2014, 2016 . Champions of Victoria 1924. AFLW - 2018.

Cordy. Let him try to hurt a few opponents there, he did go 8.1 in 2016 from R.19 to GF. If the choice is that any of the three could give up a couple of goals to their direct opponent, at least Schache & Young can hurt them with intercept marks and extra height and speed.
With the ball winning mids we have. I’d try Bonts at FF/CHF this week to see what a full game there looks like for the side.

God Naughts and Bont having a lot of set shots might mean I need to kennel my Labradors

English forward, Martin/Sweet ruck in for Bruce, Keath & Gardner in for Schache & Cordy. No idea if the ins are ready this week but that's what we need to do to win finals
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 22 Vs Hawthorn 2021
Seeing Garcia in the outs only just triggered that he played yesterday. My god we had so many mids down and out. Garcia barely sighted. Dunkley barely sighted. I only saw Smith when bombers players were blitzing passed him. Macrae had no influence. Bont went missing after quarter time. Treloar I actually saw but was wasteful by foot. Libba butchered it which is unlike him. What did we drink before the game? Our mids were like the NBA stars in space jam after the monstars stole their talent.

Yep let us start Tim as full forward. Got a feeling Gardner will play too.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 22 Vs Hawthorn 2021
I'm not dropping JJ before Scott or Garcia. None of them got the footy and all had well below par games but at least JJ made something happen. Scott's game was actually a net-negative when you consider his sole contribution was punting a me-level set shot out on the full.

JJ has been sub-standard for weeks imo.
