Re: Team Round 12

Happy to see Wood get a run (finally!) please dont let me down Easton!

But also agree, not happy with those getting a free ride every week.

Re: Team Round 12

^^^^^^^

didn't see this bit in your original post. Strangely you are thinking the same as me

Haha yes realised as I saw your post


I was just having a quick browse at who we have to come back in and who I honestly believe belongs in our 22 and I like what i see. Obviously there will be further injuries but to the current side I would change:

Shaggy for Wood - That's assuming Shaggy is ready to play his 09 form football. Mind you I'm a big Wood fan

Everitt for Eagleton - Might sound weird but get Andrejs to run on the wing. Says it's probably his favourite position.

Ward for Moles - Ward should be ready to go soon. One of my real favourites. Like Moles also but as previously mentioned, I believe his decision making can be a little wobbly.

Johnson for Stack - Stack's been out of nick. Hopefully he can lift this week but would have to think he is first out once the skipper is back.

Higgins for Hahn - Still a long way back obviously and plenty of time for Hahn to hit some form. But at the moment this is the change I would make.

Aker for Hill?? - This one has a big question mark on it. Depends on how Hill goes because at the moment he is doing enough to hold his spot. Also depends on Aker's VFL form.


Those 3 forward changes would leave us with Barry and Grant occupying those 190cm+spots, Murphy as the mid size who can play a CHF type position and Johnno, Aker/Hill and Higgins as our small forwards and leaves us with this potential lineup:

B: Jarrod Harbrow, Brian Lake, Dale Morris
HB: Ryan Hargrave, Tom Williams, Lindsay Gilbee
C: Ryan Griffen, Matthew Boyd, Callan Ward
HF: Jarrad Grant, Robert Murphy, Shaun Higgins
F: Brad Johnson, Barry Hall, Jason Akermanis/Josh Hill
Foll: Ben Hudson, Adam Cooney, Daniel Cross
I/C: from Will Minson, Andrejs Everitt, Daniel Giansiracusa, Liam Picken


Point of the post is to show how much talent we have to come into this side. A loss this week is a real worry, but if we get the 4 points all of a sudden 7-5 doesn't look too bad

Do you really mean Wood for Shaggy ? I would say Shaggy for Wood

Re: Team Round 12

Not suprised, but still disappointed.

There are a number of players that must re-pay the faith.

At some point both Hahn and Eagleton are finally going to play a decent game. History suggests it's probably this week. That then saves them for the next eight weeks.

I'd rather they don't re-pay the faith so that the MC aren't given an excuse to keep them in the side.

Terrible way to go about it, but I'll only be angrier if Hahn kicks 4 and saves his bacon on the back of this game.

Re: Team Round 12

What was the point of keeping Everitt this year if we aren't going to play him. Keep banging at the door Dre, your time will come.

Re: Team Round 12

Eade must have something against Everitt.

Re: Team Round 12

I think all WOOFers may have to go to the WB Facebook site and ask the club the same question over and over again. That may help Everitt to get a game?

Re: Team Round 12

Eade frustrates the hell out of me, if we lose this week and Hahn, Eagleton or any other questionable play pathetic I will book myself into a mental health clinic and tear up my tickets for the West Coast game at Subiaco next week.

Yeah hopefully it does. He should have been in last week IMO. The MC seem to be taking the easy way out with this team and not making some hard decisions. I don't want to see change just for the sake of it but it wouldn't hurt to shake this team up a little. That might put a bit of fear into the passengers that have got a gig on Sunday.

Re: Team Round 12

Stack?
I said last week i won't go until he is dropped, am I'm going to stick to that. Especially with Everitt not getting a gig

Agree, I was sure he was going to get a gig this week.

Re: Team Round 12

I know Everitt has to favoured because of his youth, but was his form pre-injury really that good? I thought he was doing enough to hold his spot, but he still hadn't played any really good games and was still in our worst 5 or so players during his stint. Am I missing something or are people just getting carried away?

On Stack, although he hasn't had the best few weeks, when he does get involved in a passage of play in a beneficial manner, we look much more dangerous than when someone like Josh Hill gets the ball. Stack makes things happen and plays on the offensive which is exactly the thing Eade was wanting to improve on at the end of the last match.

I'm seriously pissed off about this.

How the hell is it that Everitt isn't getting a game over some of these other clowns!!

Not happy match comittee

It's not so much about the fact that Everitt isn't getting a game. He wasn't setting the world on fire prior to injury, but he was still doing enough. It's the fact that Hahn (and Eagleton to a lesser extent) keep getting a game despite their dreadful performances.

Agree that Stack needs to keep playing until we get a few of our better players back. If he doesn't play well this week, he'll be dropped for one of Ward, Reid or Johnson.

Agree that Everitt wasn't BOG when he played, but if he was in the 5 worst, Hahn and Eagle were 1&2.
