    Re: WB Game Day V Melbourne - 2021 AAMI Community Series

    Who replaces Corizer in Defence? Without him coming across to help out, I think we need to add another tall. Id go Young let's see what he can do for the period. If we are too tall on some occasions I think we can let Keathy get more dangerous, he is more than just a lockdown defender.

    I have a feeling if we go 2 rucks though, Bevo will go short for team balance hence Scott/JJ more likely to play.

      I think Khamis would be a good like for like replacement in terms of skill set. Huge ask for a debutant though.

      Collingwood doesn't really have too much height up forward that requires the constant third man up/spoiling that Crozier loves doing, so I'd go with Duryea to offer some good defensive positioning and kicking. Has to keep his feet though.
      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        Yeah i still think we need to come across Cox and help. They generally play 2 rucks also hence Cameron might start forward, it is possible we have Timmy go back at times for sure.

        He is a nice kick Khamis, defensive spoiling coming across look great but as soon as the ball hit the ground looks well off the pace.

        Is Doc available thought he was underdone? I think he is best 22 also. I'm just not a fan of having DOC, Caleb and Williams for defensive cover with Keathy and Gardner as the 2 main talls think we will get exposed even against Collingwood.

          Martin rucks 80%, English plays forward 80% and Bruce is our stay at home tall forward. This gives us the flexibility of bringing in another small.
          I much prefer Naughton forward as a player, but for team balance he has to play a swingman role. If we play one less runner he goes back during redtime in each quarter because that's the danger period.

            Being too tall isn't a problem providing every time you get near it you mark it.
