Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

In Cordy
Out Gardner

Other changes needed yes but this has to be done

Yeah, nah… Cordy couldn’t go with the Port forwards a few weeks back and shouldn’t be in our PF team.

I'd actually consider McNeil for an extra crumber.

Is Martin categorically out?

Did Roarke do enough?

Roarke did enough for sure.

Too long between games for McNeil.

Martin has to be zero chance.

Bevo has said he will only come in if English or Young are injured

Roarke did enough for sure.

I thought Roarke was excellent tonight

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Roarke is locked in.

JJ is locked in IMO.

Confused why Gardner would get dropped for Cordy - he did nothing wrong in my eyes, admittedly with minimal tall opposition but I like his fist floating into contests.

Treloar is absolutely locked. He is a top 20 player in the league at his best, you don't drop that for a prelim.

I'm going with JJ for VDM. If Cody is out, it's Wallis for me. If Bont is out, then fmd I dunno what to do.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

If Cody is out, I want a natural forward with x-factor. Scott or Wallis doesn’t begin to offer what Cody does. I’d look at Marra, but get him to watch games of Cody or Toby Greene (less the stupid stuff). Marra is actually quicker than Cody over 20m, and has the aerial tricks too. A good kick and good forward craft. But I don’t want him in a KPF role. I want natural forwards, not players who line up forward.

Hopefully Cody only has a ‘head knock’ and lines up. It’s a Prelim, and our guys aren’t playing VFL to generate real form, we are not swinging changes. JJ for VDM seems obvious.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

At risk of being shot down if Bont is unable to play, is Lipinski a chance? I mean in the guts. I know Lipinski is leaving club but if you’ve watched VFL he is a bloody good inside midfielder and tends not to fumble. He is slow but then a fair few of our midfielders are. Same argument could be had for Wally who because he is VC would probably get the nod (was an emergency tonight so you’d think he’d get the nod) but romance aside I think Lippy is a better midfielder. Then again with Wally you know he will put his body on the line and I know Lippy has been criticised for being soft. Wally could play as a forward if Cody is out. I’d actually prefer Marra if Cody is out.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Gardner was solid as. No shot he gets dropped.

I’m gonna assume Cody misses and Bont plays. I’d play McNeil but reckon we go with Scott.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Just remembered West. He was emergency last week too. Hmmmm-of course we hope Bont can play but MC have some options if he cannot.

If Cody is out. I'd definitely consider McNeil.
Martin is gone... let it go... let it go!

Roarke was awesome tonight I thought. He's moving towards best 22.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Hard to know what to do with Lewis Young we just don't have many options right now.

[Ozza]

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Think all being fit, you'd be unlikely to make changes.

Hard to see an argument for playing Young again after basically choosing to go one short most of the second half to avoid playing him.

Going to be an interesting week given Bevo has put his stake in the ground on ruckman.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Just saw Young only played 50% game time.

That must put him in a pretty precarious position for selection.

We were significantly better with English in the ruck tonight, but honestly don’t think we can use Young’s spot in the 22 any better other than the ruck support he gives.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

If Cody is out, then Wallis comes in to play the small forward role. Otherwise, no change.
