Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 10 v Adelaide

Maybe Charlie Cameron has returned to the Crows after all these years?

Oops, my bad. That was some crazy bad "gut instinct".

I have nothing to say in my own defence. Assume my whole post is invalidated haha

That would be some rotten luck if we had to face Charlie vs both the Cows and the Bears.

I think I said in the 2023 season redemption thread that I don't quite trust the team yet - apparently I don't trust anyone else's list management either

TOB can play either end. As you say, he spent a bit of time forward at Hawthorn. He's an accurate kick, can take a good grab and is mobile. Nice attributes for a forward. His flexibility would be useful should Keath or Gardner have some flighty moments. We play North in a few weeks, I reckon that's the time to play JOD again

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 10 v Adelaide

With Riley Thilthorpe out and Tex under a cloud, it may be an opportunity to bolster our midfield and drop a tall defender. Given the weather forecast as well, I would give Keath the afternoon off and bring in Tim O'Brien to replace him. (not that TOB would play midfield) I would also give JOD the arvo off but apparently Bevo has committed to him playing this weekend.

Unless Bevo is thinking JOD for sub

Forecast is looking more grim.

Min 5 Max 11
Rainfall 1mm to 3mm
Chance of rain 95%

Cloudy. Very high chance of showers, most likely in the morning and afternoon. Light winds becoming northwesterly 20 to 25 km/h during the morning then tending westerly 15 to 25 km/h during the day.

Which midfielder you bringing in?

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 10 v Adelaide

Hard to know if we should stick with ODonnell but there must be more deserving players on our list.

Selection shouldn't be merely a reward for the deserving. The most important consideration should be what the electee can contribute, well, what the Coach perceives his contribution to be. Falling away, rapidly, after that is reward for performance in the 2s, further down, development of the incumbent. Bev must have seen something in O'Donnell that would contribute to a win and we won. I want young O'Donnell, the son of a bloke who struck a century in his first appearance at Lords, to succeed but only if he contributes.

Think of the cash though.

We've got a roof!

Against Carlton, Caleb had a few runs through the midfield at centre bounces. Given that TOB can play big or small, I would give Caleb more midfield time and TOB can play there or replace Keath. Both Caleb and Keath were named on the bench.

If JOD doesn't get a game, I would bring Hannan in to free up Macrae

...but Macrae's going GREAT in this role...why would you mess with that??

Doing things like this can just make us weaker in two positions as Hannan might fail to match Macrae's performance level and - for the moment at least - Macrae seems better suited with a bit of a 'role' vs the old free-wheelin' Jack!

You make a very valid point ... let me rethink my strategy

TOB is in. Not sure who for though.
