Young for Gardner seems a no brainer.

Wouldn't say it's a no brainer because we don't need to play 3 tall defenders against North. It depends if Bevo wants to continue his 3 tall long term plan or not.

Before I think we were happy to go with a temporary solution as Gardner would return. My feel is now there is a possibility he will not return this season they'd want to give Young time to slot into that spot and take his chance.

Have to say standing very close to the action at the VFL last week he (Young) was very vocal and helped setup the defence regularly.

Even telling Easton were to go. He was screaming hammer at him at one point, which is either code for a role or a player he wanted him to cover. It's also possible he remembered he needed a hammer and Easton was going to Bunnings post match.

I'm thinking the former, Coburg had an extra at the stoppage and Easton was free a kick behind play.

I thought Young was excellent v Coburg, very engaged with no lapses in concentration. If he played like that for another club's VFL side, I'd be thinking that I hope we look at him because he's exactly what we need.

The other benefit of playing Young is he is a decent 2nd ruck option and won't disrupt our structure forward of the ball.

Looking to the future I believe Young and English would make an excellent ruck combination.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 16 Vs North Melbourne 2021

I'd go with

Lewy, Garcia, Tobias, Sweet

Sub- Wally

Rough on Wally but he is getting closer. I'd go Sweet to freshen up/protect English a bit.

Why have you cooled on Young?

Isn't "Lewy" Young?

I have just realised no need to go with L+ Young with Lachie Young at North. Worth getting rid of him on that alone IMO.

Habit. Sorry. Young.

Yes, yes he is.

I reckon we need to keep simple for Young. Play Cordy/Bruce as the second ruck if we only go with Timmy and let Young get some continuity down back.

Looking at the nth team, have to think there's a decent chance Walker plays fwd unless we bring in Sweet and play English fwd. If he does, Young makes more sense.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 16 Vs North Melbourne 2021

Sweet had a good game last week by accounts with nine tackles and a few hitouts so he may get rewarded to go against soup.
