I'll give it a go if they allow me the use of a sledgehammer...

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

Shaggy and Dahl are the only two I'd bring back if they are fit enough.

Howard is first one I would have out. I really don't know who else should go out. I thought Grant was OK and deserves another go. He can also fill free up Jones to relieve Roughy in the ruck. Vez being dropped after playing as a sub would be rough. I think Cordy needs to stay in due to our lack of defenders and to give him some experience and I thought Schofield was OK as well.

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

Cordy could be handy to keep if he has it in him to drop back in front of Franklin.
TBH I think it would be a good game for the kids to learn about oppositon with great midfield and a great forward.
Definitely get more of a gauge where we are at in that game than todays game.

I like.

Play as many kids as you can. They get the experience, they get a taste of what's required to be the best. When we get obliterated, we can always chirpily reply: “We're playing kids from Willy mate!”

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

DJ was pretty good. He actually works exceptionally hard.

Surely we must persist with him.

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

I'd want to get in Wallis if possible, maybe drop Howard for him. That being said happy to remain unchanged and give the young blokes a crack at a top 4 team.

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

Hill may gain a recall. Let's see if he can replicate the intensity he showed against Box Hill when playing against their Hawthorn big brothers. Hill in might release Jones to have a turn down back if the MC want to check Jones out as a defender and try to play him into a bit of form.

Seriously, Hill has the physical attributes and skill set to be a success against a side who press. We only need one pack marking gorilla and the sometimes resting ruckman up forward - Hill to play the third tall. Can he get his head in the right space and take his final opportunity if offered?

Jones down back would most likely do better than Cordy down back.

Who would you drop for Hill to come in?

Re: Round #23 Match Committee

I think although Hargrave was really ordinary before he was injured v Essendon - our injuries mean he should probably come back in to defence...I'd be going in with this line up;

B: Hargrave; Markovic; Wood
HB: Murphy; Barlow; Picken
C: Ward; Boyd; Tutt
HF: DJ; Jones; Higgins
F: Gia; Hall; Daulhaus
R: Roughead; Griffen; Liberatore
Int: Vez; Cross; Schofield - Sub: Grant
