Ins and Outs - First Final

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

IN: Tiller, Hudson, Griffen

OUt: Welsh, Everitt, Reid

I'd prefer Tiller to be our swingman rather than Welsh.
Hudson in for Everitt as we need the bigger body especially with Ottens playing
The last spot is between Reid and Picken for mine but the MC seem to rate Picken ahead of Reid due to Picken playing most of the games this year.

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

We looked shaky when the Cats sent Mumford forward to create a three pronged attack a few weeks ago. I'd like Everitt to keep his spot - he can be played up the field when Ottens is rucking and then sent back to pick up Hawkins when Ottens goes forward (who will be manned by Lake).

Welsh and Reid to miss for Griffen and Hudson.

Without Welsh, this would mean Johnno can start deep on whatever sucker takes him or if Scarlett goes to him, he can drag him up the field so he can't do the zone off/chop out thing which he excels at.

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

As well as Everitt played and I do want him to stay I think Welsh gets the spot ahead of him..

Welsh creates quite a distraction to other sides with best defenders going to him..and we can use him down back as we have in recent games.

I do wanna see Everitt have another crack though..Wow..what a position we're in with a selection problems, its a good feeling in a way.

I agree, I think Welsh has had a very poor season and is not giving us the same as he did last year as a target in the forward line.

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

I wonder if Reid gets dropped if it will have much impact his willingness to sign on again?

If he sooks and is not willing to fight his way back into the team next year, I say "see ya later"

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

Im not 100% confident that Hudson will be playing, remember his injury was related to his hammy according to reports. I read an article where Rocket said Hudson should be right to play. Whenever he has used such terminalogy in the past, the player has not played.
Obviously I hope I am wrong. I will take a close look at him at training today.

This is what he actually said

"Hudson will be back and Griffen will be available so we're just about a full book."


Based on your theory Griffin would be the one in doubt. He says he is available, doesn't say he'll be back.

Thanks Aker, you now have me worried about Griff! The article I was referring to was a different quote, I wish I could find it.
I don't care about how you spell as long as I can understand what you are writing. Found it interesting though that you spelt Griffen 2 different ways in the one post

Was it this from yesterdays Age

Utility Ryan Griffen is expected to return from a three-week hamstring injury, while ruckman Ben Hudson should also come into the side after he withdrew from the win over the Magpies with hamstring tightness.

If so, that was not a quote from Rocket, it was the authors opinion

That's easy.

The correct one was copy and paste, the incorrect one was left up to dumb arse me to type it.

Instead of Mumford resting this in the FP this week you are going to get Otten's. Underdone? Yes but much more dangerous than the Mummy.

I think we match up pretty well with them everywhere else but this is one thing that I am real concerned about.

Ottens is much better - MCG being a bigger ground means Lake wont find it as easy to get across and provide the chop-out to his undersized teammates.

Re: Ins and Outs - First Final

From the little I could say of the match drills at todays training session, Huddo seemed to be moving fine.

Hopefully not. He needs to remember that he is a second year player, competing for a spot in a team that played a PF last year, and is looking perhaps even stronger this year.

I'd love for him to retain his spot, but with a near full list and most players in good form it won't be easy.

Hopefully he chooses to sign on, because he has added a lot and has a bright future with us.

My mail is that the club are very keen to keep him and it's hoped he will sign a new deal soon.
