Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
We are top of the ladder and undefeated!Good call. I think McNeil takes Garcia's role and Garcia play more inside mid.
I'm fine with McNeil getting another run. He had a good pre-season as a small forward (was one of the big improvers) and the cupboard is pretty bare at Footscray.
Last chance saloon but let's see if he can recreate some of what we saw in pre-season where he actually looked like a small forward.Comment

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
Who makes sense as a sub in general though? The sub is used so conservatively Bevo basically brings them on during the last quarter if possible. All things being equal I'm not sure it matters who it is in that scenario they wont make an impact.Comment

McNeil is scraping the barrel, can't kick a goal from 30m out dead in front under the roof, dud selection, nafa.Comment

I think the sub should be a player who we think might eventually make it as a player. It's an opportunity to give someone game time at the highest level.[URL="http://journals.worldnomads.com/merantau"]http://journals.worldnomads.com/merantau[/URL]

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
I tend to agree on McNeil. By all reports he is playing well at Footscray.Good call. I think McNeil takes Garcia's role and Garcia play more inside mid.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
Freija the sub makes sense to me, seems capable in various spots.
I like that we’re bringing in a small forward, just surprised it’s Lachie. Clarke would love a Friday night.
My biggest surprise is Keath - who will he play on? He looked awfully finished at times last weekFloat Along - Fill Your LungsComment

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
McNeil isn't who I would have picked but I think the type of selection that is extremely overrated in value by fans. I'd have him as sub as 1/ (most importantly) the other 22 are better than him and 2/ he offers speed and I am assuming pressure is why he is there. These suit coming on as a sub.
Decisions we make based on curbing N Daicos, how we rotate/use our talls up forward to ensure they aren't too top heavy, who we play Keath on, what we do with Bont mid/fwd rotation wise etc, these are all heaps more important than whether we select McNeil, Baker or Poulter. Not excusing a bad decision due to lack of importance but I am not thinking it's THAT bad and more so, who I would have picked isn't THAT good.Comment

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 12 vs Collingwood
Despite his patchy form at AFL level, the Dogs have a 65% winning rate when McNeill is in the team. He could be our saviour
