Re: TEAMS - Round 22

We look short on run with Cooney and Wood out - too many genuine forwards.

Having Ward and Harbrow under a cloud doesn't help either.

Time to switch to a grinding, St Kilda style bore fest to cover our injuries.

Re: TEAMS - Round 22

Whilst the losses of Coons & Morris hurt alot, it's still a good team on paper, good inclusions this week as well, all 3 in form players as well, a few handy types in the emer list.

Where does that leave Minson though?

Re: TEAMS - Round 22

Who thinks Higgo is still a chance? Apparently having blood tests to see if he is ok to play.

Not a big problem against Essendon who are actually quite a slow team despite their media image, but we need to work on our defensive structures in preparation for Collingwood next week.

Re: TEAMS - Round 22

If we can bring Wood for pace and (a healthy) Higgins back into that team soon we won't be looking too bad.

I disagree totally, do a player versus player comparison in the speed stakes and we are well off the mark.

How the heck Hahn gets a game after last week is beyond me. Watch for an Essendon half back flanker run off him all night, i would think Stanton will have a party.

Jobe Watson is a huge out for them, his loss hurts them more than Cooney does for us.

We also will not get found out with Morris missing this week. (next week is a different story)

Minson is now behind Roughy in the picking order despite Wil's good game at Willy.

Spider Jnr, if by some miracle you read this, this is your time, you NEED and have to dominate this game of football, they have nobody to man up on you, this is your chance, reward all of us with a game that shows just what you are made of, do NOT give the MC the opportunity to drop you.

Trade bait.

I agree. Nothing against Liam Jones but I would have added another runner at his expense.

Not fussed with the Bombers.

This week is all about putting our ducks in a row for the first final. I want to see 80 tackles.

The one guy giving us the most defensive pressure in our forward 50 - whilst still kicking goals?

Hahn had to go because Everitt can now give a chop out defensively. If the MC think Mitch is a better option to swing back, they must have forgotten his horrible performance against Leigh Brown.

When Hudson goes it will be Minno and Roughie

I see them live nearly every week, take my word for it they are slow. Their own supporters say when Winderlich is out they are the slowest team in the league. The only players other than him with genuine pace are their fringe players like Jetta.
