Always Right Match Committee Round 14 v GWS at Giant Stadium on Saturday Night

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 v GWS at Giant Stadium on Saturday Night

Haynes is a bit of a ball stopper on offense. His courage and contested marking are great but I'm not certain he's a good player ball in hand...I'm not really sure there is a position for him with us given our 30000 half-backs + ball movement method.

He's certainly one of the best interceptors/spoilers in the game though.

Agree, probably a bit like Crozier has become. Just not able to get it moving quickly enough, is too one-sided and ends up using the footy a bit haphazardly. I feel like Doc is becoming a bit the same with age.

It could unless we have a plan to limit it.

We haven't for the last ten years, I don't know what would prompt you to say this.

Why should we plan for the opposition. Never seems a priority as we follow our clog up game plan.

Could he play under Bont?

As long as Bont is able to forgive him for being such a pussy then I don’t see an issue.

MJP - it’s an interesting criticism that I hadn’t thought about before with him being a ball stopper, but his defensive work is so good that I think it more than makes up for it.

We could've done with a ball stopper in last year's GF to slow some momentum

It's a huge game.

The Aints losing means we can close within a game of them.

We do need to get on a roll, particularly with our first choice players increasingly available.

Have I told you if win our next 12 will be in the Grand Final.

And where are we when we win?

A game out of the 8

I'm not sure DG has considered that scenario........

Best case we need to go 6-4 for the rest of the season to make the 8, with a brutal run home. To do more than scrape in we need to storm home from now. This is as close to must win as a round 14 game can be.

I did.
I’m just looking at what a loss would mean.
