Re: Round 12- Selection changes
I still can't recall it...whereabouts on the ground? Did Reid get a free kick for it?
And is Hudson's report for the tackle where he picked someone up off the ground, similar to how Jolly had tackled Griffen earlier in the game without consequence?Comment

Re: Round 12- Selection changes
OUT - Addison (disaster), Hahn (lump), Higgins (injured), Grant (only if he is suspended). No exceptions to that list. Not one. Addison should have been dropped last week and Hahn was on his absolute last chance and failed.
I'd dance a merry jig if I could drop Gia, Eagleton, Stack and Hill as well but we don't have the cattle at the moment. When was the last time that Gia played well for us? How many games this year has he been ok in? Two? Three? Stack will be a good player for us in the future.
KEEP OUT - Johnson, Murphy, Reid & Ward. None are ready yet and I only want them in the seniors when they are ready. Surely we've learnt from Higgins' season that playing guys hurt gets you nowhere.
IN - Everett (and play him in the lead up role at centre half forward), Wood, Hargrave (but only if he's fit), Jones/Roughead (a tall deep target to help in the forward line if Grant is suspended as Brian will be needed in defence - may as well consider giving one of the two kids a crack).Comment

Re: Round 12- Selection changes
Just caught the end of Game Day yesterday and Johnno was on, he mentioned that he and Aker will likely be playing for Willie against North Ballarat - when (sorry missed the date). It is up Ballarat, and they showed a picture of the ground covered in snow - Johnno laughed and said, "well, at least I won't have to ice my achillies!". Wanted all Dogs supporters to come up and cheer them on........
I guess this means no Johnno for a few weeks?

Re: Round 12- Selection changes
I would love to see Callan come in and play back pocket. This would allow Harbrow to play in the middle. His run and agility would be perfect to get through the rolling zone that's so effective against us, plus his turnovers by foot wouldn't hurt as much.The curse is dead.Comment

Re: Round 12- Selection changes
Agree with the sentiments about Eagleton and Hahn. Eagle should just retire - the penetration in his kicking was his saving grace - and that is gone now, he shouldn't play again. Hahn is just so slow and I'm really not sure what he brings to the side.
I can't see any justification for Addison playing. we dead set have to hide him out there at times, I think when he dropped a mark on the wing and he and Hahn managed to crash into each other and both fall down, leaving the Pies players to run off with the ball - it just summed the both of them up perfectly.
Moles' decision making is atrocious at times, he wasn't the worst - but not far from it - how Everitt wasn't playing is beyond me.Comment

Re: Round 12- Selection changes
Williams was far from being one of the worst.
And Gia did the job he was asked to do. Shaw always kills us - and this was the first time he hasn't. I just think Gia was the wrong man to do it given we missed out on his good use of the ball.Comment
