Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

There were a lot of reasons to be pissed off in a six goal win - which was refreshing - and that was definitely one of them.

I think we need to reward Honeychurch for some good for this week. I've said my piece earlier, I'll wait for our outs to become clear later in the week but he needs to play for mine.

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

Jordan has a sore ankle and I believe some other minor issues.
I'd give him a rest, and bring in Tom C. Roughy has been fantastic and might I remind everyone of my 2016 prediction he would come good? What else could we ask of him at this point? Rucking, stealing goals, competing around the ground and taking the high ball down back. Well deserved rest.

Caleb Daniel I would rest, and give Honeychurch a try. We've found a stellar talent in Daniel, but let's not get excited and forget how little footy he has played and manage this talent.

Jack Redpath for Tom Boyd

Play Adcock forward and let him rub a bit of salt into the wounds of his old club.

Webb has to play. We need an injection of good ball use particularly with JJ and Murph out. I'll eat my hat if he doesn't play.

I'd consider Dale for that outside run and Honeychurch for forward pressure. Dickson a maybe, depending on how he trains.

I'd rest anyone who is sore, because we need a fit squad v Norf.

I'm not sure TC's shoulder is right.

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

Any further word on Boyd. I'm guessing he'll miss but the silence is deafening.

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

Without knowing Tom Boyd's condition it's making things hard. I'm expecting him to miss.

In - Wood, Honeychurch, Redpath, Dickson
Out - JJ, Jong, Boyd, McLean

I think we need to get Dickson up to AFL pace as soon as possible in light of who we're playing the following week. I expect him to be rusty and possibly a bit quiet.

I've put Redpath in, if TC's fit he could probably play the role. Whilst his forward craft is going to take a while, Tom Boyd's rucking has been invaluable and I much prefer him to play than either Red or TC.

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

I don't think anything is wrong with TC. The Age incorrectly mentioned him having a shoulder injury when they should have referred to Boyd.

For mine, he is well ahead of Redpath.

Thanks. I think it depends whether we want a forward or a ruck.

Re: Match Committee - Round 5 2016 vs Brisbane Lions

Brisbane have been beaten up by key forwards so far this season;

Rd 1: Kennedy 8, Darling 2
Rd 2: Waite 5, Brown 3
Rd 3: Hawkins 4, Kersten 3
Rd 4: Lynch 5

Think it could be a good week to play Redpath. Regardless of whether Boyd is in or not.

I dont disagree with any of this but I'd like to know what type of hat you prefer just in case..

Were you at the Tigers game? Came off and didn't go back on. I'll be surprised if he's picked.

Or a good week to not change the existing forward line and play them back into some form? I'd play Boyd one out personally.
