Round 15 Team

[bornadog]

Ins Markovic, Grant, Reid and Hooper;

Outs Sherman (suspended), Minson, Schofield & Howard

[LostDoggy]

Hooper?

I know he had four goals on the weekend, but didn't think he was traveling that well.

[DragzLS1]

Sound interesting would be good to see what happens under the etihad roof tommorow night..

[azabob]

No second ruck is concerning.

[Templeton31]

Minson bit unlucky I wouldve thought....

[LostDoggy]

Here we go with one ruckman who can only handle 70% game time again

[Bulldog4life]

Minson bit unlucky I wouldve thought....

I agree. I thought he played better than Hudson.

[Bulldog Joe]

No second ruck is concerning.

Obviously decided on Barlow as the relief ruck.

Another BOG for Will at Willi, when we want Cordy and Roughead developing.

[comrade]

Hudson over Minson? We're really backing the old war horse in, aren't we? Does that mean Barlow will be given a crack in the ruck?

Reid comes in but no inside mid comes out? I hope we win the clearances or we could be (slowly) chasing tail all night.

Some interesting selections. I'm not exactly filled with confidence.

I would have given Cross a spell.

It's a little confusing to me & i really don't know which direction Rocket is taking the team, some inclusions & omissions still baffle me.

I would have backed a younger ruckman in Minson to play as the sole ruck better than Hudson

So Barlow, Markovic or Williams play as the 2nd ruck?

[Drunken Bum]

I for the life of me cannot see the sense in playing Hudson over Minson. If there was a big difference between the two sure i understand then but the difference in form is negligible and arguably Minsons form has been better when played as first ruck.
Minson has been played out of position as he is clearly a first ruck, not a forward but has been sacrificed up forward because he is better there than Hudson. Huddo will not be playing next year and Minno will be our no.1 ruck for at least 2 years i would have thought while Cordy and Roughie develop and earn the right to take it from him. It makes no sense to drop Minson ahead of Huddo at all :/

[SlimPickens]

Good to see Marko, Hoops and Grant get another crack. Really disappointed that we persist with Gilbee, he was very ordinary last week. Would have thought that Howard or Schofiled would have been a better option.

[The Bulldogs Bite]

Some strange selections.

Reid cannot play in the same side as Cross, Boyd and Ward. It doesn't work - we're slow enough as it is. Hill or Tutt would have been my choices, especially with no Sherman.

I had a suspicion Hooper might get a game given our forward line woes. Hopefully he goes OK, along with Grant.

[LostDoggy]

Hudson usually plays well against Jamar, maybe that's why he was preferred over Minson.
