Round #7 Match Committee

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

Bit harsh on Dylan, he deserves another week surely.

How was Stacks game in the VFL? He should have to fight his way in. Our backline was pretty good besides the last 10 minutes.

10 minutes was all they needed.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

From all reports, it doesn't sound as if Stack did anything particularly special this week to justify putting him in again.

Surely it's time to make some hard calls.

Hard calls? In which respect?

One might be Grant vs Jones when Bazza returns.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

Can't see the MC making significant changes like that this week. This is the kind of game that they will look at in a positive light, not going to feel that they need to make any statements at the selection table or drastically alter the side.

in the post match conf rocket admitted that certain players are not following instructions. this is more than just disappointing for us fans.

Cross kept Pendlebury quiet, hard to drop him after yesterday

Yeah fair enough, I'm just disappointed with the amount of times he goes to ground and how he just throws the ball on his boot to no one in particular.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

There is no way, Cross will be dropped.

I totally agree with you.

We have a fair few that just seem to kick without looking.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

I just don't know where this team is at. If we are not going for to make top four Hudson is out. If we are then Hudson is in. I guess the results of the next two games will tell us a bit more. Just not sure Minson and Hudson are the right mix. I prefer Minson based on form.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

So, Higgins likely to miss a second week with 'general soreness'? Seems more likely that he must have picked up a soft tissue injury. Front runner is the back related hamstring, followed by a tight groin/adductor, hip, calf and for something different, maybe even an ankle.

I know it took the best part of 6 years for Williams to play nearly a full season. Higgins into his 6th season now and doesn't look like he's ever going to play a full season for us. Really hope I'm wrong.

Re: Round #7 Match Committee

I would drop Roughead to bring back Hudson. And Moles out for Gia.

Leave Jones and Grant in the team - they will come right.

So, who will be the sub? Moles was the replacement for Roughead in the last game. You can not bring in 2 players ... just for one spot in the team unless Gia is the sub?!

Libba? Gives the kid a bit of a freshen up if he's only playing part of the game. I'd hate to see us push him too hard and have him break down.

I agree on this one. Keeps him there with the group but reduces his game time for this week.

Agree, from what I saw on the weekend leaving guys like Jones and Grant in the team will benefit us long term. We are seeing glimpses of the future, and I like what I am seeing. The result was horrible but the game itself showed we are capable, with a team of kids of matching it with the seasoned Pies.

Yep - LIbba the sub.....
