Could Roarke Smith take over Toby McLeans role as the defensive midfielder?

Hayes, Garcia and Porter quickly spring to mind as well as Lipinski. Could we move Williams to the midfield for a game?

No to Hayes, Garcia, Porter or Williams to midfield. Now is not the time to experiment or bring in new players.

As I mentioned after that post, Lippa is the most likely to replace Mclean

I think your changes are needed, but not quiet right team balance wise.

Afraid to say Suckling was a lot like Dickson a week or so back.

To be fair to Suckers, he’s just not suited to playing inside 50 and I’m not sure why we’re persisting. Surely Dale or Cavarra would be better options?

If Wood tests Ok.

Out: Maclean (Inj), Suckling (Omitted)
In: Lipinski, Wood

I agree Dale would be better. For mine though, I forget how infuriating Dale can be, but he does hit the scoreboard and can play up the ground.

That would be my changes as well

Suckling’s first game back?

Shouldn’t we take the “he’ll be better for the run” approach?

Would we bring Hayes back in to play on the bench?

All of the games at Cazaly are absolute slogs this season. Slippery, almost wet weather all the time. How important is Caleb going to be. If I were Freo I'd run a player with him.
I'd almost bring in Gowers. Skills are not going to matter, big bodies are. So ... I'm getting nervous typing it....I'll press send and turn off my phone...however....

Out : Mclean
In : Gowers

Or West.

Bye.

Given the importance of this game I fully expect Garcia to play.

In all seriousness, what was Roarkes role today if it was a defender, he goes for Wood. If Roarke is playing wing or can take on Toby's role he probably stays and I'd bring in Dale.

Yeah, I know but for an experienced player should have done better and I would prefer Wood next week.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 18 Vs Fremantle Dockers 2020

Wood, Cordy,Keath,Gardner in the one backline? Not so sure, some interesting decisions for the match committee.

We desperately need some intercept making though, continue to give forwards a second chance draw at ground level.

Lippa a lock for Mclean.

I tend to agree as well BD. I thought Duryea showed enough to be pleased with off a long absence, but with Suckling I’m not so sure about the ‘better for the run’ idea applies when the performance is pretty much consistent with what he’s displayed through the season.

Hasn't been a good season for Suckers

I think Roarke started on the wing
