Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 18 Vs Fremantle Dockers 2020
I mentioned in another thread: I am not sure if this showed in the broadcast, but I was surprised to see how hard Suckling was running and leading, burning off opponents in the process. He wasn’t used a lot of the time but it opened up space and other options. I think he game was much better than the stat sheet shows.
He should have had one over the top when Bruce marked near the middle of the ground. He torched two defenders and should have got a long ball out the back.
Just looked it up- he had 16 sprint efforts (third highest on the ground).Comment

If Wood is fit would be great to get a game into him. Not sure it’s been picked up by many but his role had changed in the last month or so before he got injured and he was doing good jobs on types of players who historically trouble us.Comment

I've turned the corner on Gardner, his last 4 weeks have been solid and lord knows we desperately need a tall, athletic defender so why not hold out some hope and see if he's the one?
In regards to Suckling, he isn't a forward, has never been a forward, so why are we shoehorning him into that role when it didn't work earlier in the year prior to injury. We're about to embark on another final campaign, the lack of stability in our forward line is a huge concern.
Yeah, he may have been burnt a few times today when free but is there a chance our players higher up the ground aren't even looking for him, or don't trust him as a forward. Because you know, he isn't one.
If you have the option of Bruce, Naughton, Wallis or Suckling, human nature dictates that you're going to go with the predictable option, i.e. a permanent forward. Especially with the lack of quality decision making when kicking inside 50.
TLDR: play forwards forward.Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment

I'd only change Lipinski for McLean.
Like what Roarke has brought to the side recently. Is pretty assured with ball in hand. Is getting forward and getting some shots on goal, and his athleticism helps in the air. I actually think he has pretty good footy instincts too, there's been some occasions where there's been a 2 on 2 or 3 on 3 scenario, where he'll avoid taking possession but rather knock the ball to the advantage of a team mate and put the block on to give his team mate space.
As for Suckling, didn't get that many opportunities, but assume he'll be better for the run. Is exactly the sort of player that might kick you a 'half chance' goal in a low scoring game if the conditions are what you'd expect. Can also play forward, back or on a wing.Comment
