    Re: Wight v Williams

    Would be disappointed if shaggy got cut.

    Form is a beautiful thing and the boys IMO would be Hill, Eagleton and Tiler who played against the Swans.

    The way I read it we could use Shaggy Wing or HFF as he is a good kick.

    P.S thought we where a small side deprived of Height?
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

      Yeah, I reckon you're right (your brother in law tells me that's a rarity in itself) & welcome to WOOF wc.

        No real need for drastic change, but if willo is fit, he's in. Probably at the expence of a Tiller/Hill/Eagle, but if that is as some one suggested a problem, then it's a great one to have!

          Was today one of the better games Williams has played? Thought he did damned well.

            Definitely did a good job and maybe was a little surer with the ball than Wight. Wonder how Franklin was on his own when he got his second though

              There is no way I would play Wight on Franklin.

                No competition. Williams over Wight any day. I think the coaching staff agree 100%.

                And Franklin would have been a bit too good for Wighty, I fear.

                Having said that it's handy to have a player like Wight not even in our best 22 -- depth is as good as I've ever remembered it.

                  Not after today's effort by a Williams still get back to full fitness. Put himself back into the best 22 on the back of today's effort.

                    Cam was clearly in trouble after the North game, and I was happy Tiller got an opportunity this week (and took it) I think Eade and co get a huge tick for fast tracking Tom back and giving him one the 3 hardest jobs in footy (along with J Brown & Fev) His athleticism AND size made him the perfect fit.

                    Anyone notice how much weight Williams has put on as well? In 12-18 months he could be a monster - Cam Wight still looks way too skinny - though playing him forward has merit. Good overhead, and at least he'd be kicking at the sticks and not trying to pinpoint blokes around the ground, where he struggles. Mobile too. If they're serious about this option, they need to play Wight at CHF for Willy and leave him there until he retuns to the seniors. Too often I see blokes played out of position in the VFL. It's obvious they've given up on McDougall.....

                      Williams really showed his potential yesterday, especially his performance on buddy 1 on 1. If Tommy can continue to learn the game, and he becomes settled in the 22 for a long period of time, then we have ourselves a GUN.
                      I will never see #16 the same!!

                        So, does Williams back up next week on Reiwoldt or do we go with Morris again?

                          Was about to write absolutely, though with no Gehrig who knows. I think Lake would more likely go to Kosi and Williams to Reiwoldt. Saints had a predictably big win against Melbourne after the soft tag, this will be a hard game.

                          Morris was terrific on Reiwoldt, though he still had a big influence on the game, beating him one on one through shear size & reach. I don't think he should play on him again, but gee Morris is a gem hey?

                            Ferguson is playing forward?
                            Kosi?

                              Now from memory Williams has already played on Riewoldt last season.

                                Morris on Riewoldt, Williams on Kosi and Lake forward?
                                But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
