Always Right Match Committee Round 19 v Essendon

[meenies]

Bus for JOD
Sweet for Darcy (only first quarter of reserves but has taken 2 masks (his KPI) and deserves an upgrade). Let Lobb reflect one week longer although I value what he brings to the structure and takes players away from others (how many times did JUH or Naughton have a spare man flying with him?)
Play Scott forward. He is a lot better there.
I also thought VDM was OK and want more players with speed not less. Look like he had more confidence in his legs last night.
Garcia for McNeil.
Watch more of reserves for Gallagher & Baker (2 goals each is 1st Q) to see if one comes up.

Is Harvey Gallagher ready for a debut?

Garcia was a sub - so are you saying one of your ins replaces him

[Boots]

Can't believe no one wants VDM out. He has no idea how to defend. Papley toweled him up with a minimum of touches.

I want him out. He gives away stupid frees and often seems to make bad decisions, especially by hand.

I vastly prefer Garcia.

Also did I miss something, what happened to Bedendo?

He reinjured himself - could be season

Good point. Possibly maybe VDM goes sub.
Wonder if JJ is ok for next game.

Last injury report was another 2 /3 weeks, but that can also be conservative

We are now making up the numbers, so lets give some players a deserved chance for a change.

In
Sweet (he was matched against Tom Hickey i.e not against a 2nd string vfl ruck), Khamis, Cleary, B Smith, Busslinger

Out
Darcy, O'Donnell, McNeill, Duryea, Gardner

and Ladhams with Lobb on our side. I can?t say who won the ruck battle.

Awesome! The kid has some wheels, neat kick just always worried that they can't win enough ball. That's a great sign indeed.

He has to be close.

"Rampe’s two week suspension came after Lachlan McNeil suffered delayed concussion after playing out the game. So what might have been a fine at worst develops into a multi week suspension. Sydney might challenge it and say how do we know he was injured in this incident? "

"Rampe is responsible for the concussion if it is clearly this knock that caused it. The Dogs have confirmed McNeil is in the concussion protocol. But with Melican hamstrung and the Swans still some chance of playing finals they might challenge it"

That all sounds fine let's roll the dice what do we have to lose really?

Buss is no where near ready but neither is JOD so, meh.

[The Doctor]

my changes

Gallagher in for McNeill

Busslinger for JOD

Cleary in for Duryea (managed)

Khamis for Darcy (if injured)

B.Smith for Scott

Garcia or Baker as Sub
