Always Right Match Committee Round 6 V Fremantle

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 6 V Fremantle

I like McNeil too. I know ~ p r e s s u r e a c t s ~ are a joke but at least it’s something positive that I can clearly identify that he does to make us better. As opposed to one or two others who the best we can hope for is them staying out of the way and not getting the ball.

It’s not a coincidence that the best we’ve looked in the last 3 years is with him, Weightman and Scott buzzing around.

McLean on a wing doesn’t fill me with any confidence. He is really struggling with his running and keeping up with the pace of the game.

Is he though? He had a good 2022 finals match and has played one full game and come on in the last quarter as a sub twice. Also found the footy 45 times in the VFL. If we're keen on him in the side how about we give him a string of three games? He has been afforded zero continuity.

If it turns out he's our Trent Cotchin then fine but I still think he has something to give.

I would like to see Buku get a run.

I always get a buzz seeing number 24 out on the field (Dempsey, Wallis and Biggsy)

I don't know why we have played him on a wing. Either we stick with him as a small forward (like his early years), or he becomes part of the midfield rotations.

Because we have a massive hole in that position. Baker has helped considerably but Williams is just treading water. There is definitely a spot there but like you l'm not convinced he is a wing man. It's forward or bust it seems.

The hope I have for Toby is all around his footy smarts. He is a very smart and creative player but we haven't seen that for a long time due to injuries and form.

I like the idea of him in the forward line he's an excellent mark for his size and he is a very clean set shot with a beautiful action. He needs continuity to build confidence though but we know what he is capable of.

Playing McComb, Hannan, Jones, Scott et al. in front of him is a real head scratcher for me. Scott is a solid role player but he should be outside best 22 for mine because he is so limited. I'd like Toby to get a block of games under his belt and reassess where he's at around mid-season.

He deserves at least that doesn't he?

I mean those guys were good but they are no Nick Bruton!

Thing with Tobias, I don't mind if we don't give him CBAs at AFL level, just playing him in a role at VFL level that is something resembling what role we see him playing in AFL
