Match Committee - Round 3 vs St Kilda

Re: Match Committee - Round 3 vs St Kilda

Smith should be the sub.

He can't run out a full game at the moment and usually tires towards the end of the secod quarter/start of the third.

I'd like to see him come on in the last quarter because he could offer us quite a bit with his 'bull at a gate' style when the heat has dropped off a little.

Agree with the Smith as sub call, but would prefer him to be introduced at the mid point of the 3rd qtr.

Agree with this. I think we should plan to sub Cordy/Roughead with about 10 minutes to go in the 3rd

Cordy?

Id' throw up if that's the case.

DJ plays the sub well, give it to him.

Re: Match Committee - Round 3 vs St Kilda

The calls for Smith or DJ to sub are good, I'd be pretty surprised if it was Cordy.

I agree with you but I am thinking what the coaching staff will do. They will most likely start with all three big men and Smith or DJ on the bench, then sub either Cordy or Roughead out depending on how they are playing.

Re: Match Committee - Round 3 vs St Kilda

Am also on board with Smith as sub. Could see him having an impact in the midfield and forward.

I'm pretty sure that's how it will pan out as well but with our use of the sub who knows?

It's as if you guys don't care about my Supercoach team at all!

So you are happy for him to play the full game for 30 points like last week then?

I think it could actually help his Supercoach score!

If the game is close in the third quarter (it most likely will be) if he comes on and dominates he will score 50+ points easily possibly more.

Dickson ended up with 39 points last week from just a quarter and he really didn't do that much at all.

I would rather he scored 102 like he did in R1!

Dont we all lol

If he comes on half way through the 3rd quarter then he should come in hard and should score good in supercoach with hopefully 1 or 2 goals

I am mainly concerned that he gets a good amount of game time along with Cordy as they are our future!

Re: Match Committee - Round 3 vs St Kilda

I would take that 4th forward option called Darling any day of the week though

That is actually not a bad call at all. Of all the potentially surplus talls of all the teams that we could possibly trade with that wouldn't be a total spud but also not be ridiculously astronomically expensive he would have to be close to the best possible option. He wouldn't come cheap but WCE at least have enough talls that they may be willing to look at a trade if the price was right.

God knows we need a reasonable quality tall forward to come into this line-up. Jones and Darling with Cordy (with another pre-season under his belt) and Grant rotating through makes our structure immediately a lot more dangerous. Never going to happen though. Too expensive, go-home factor etc. etc. etc.

There is no way the Eagles will trade Darling. They are like the cat that got the cream with him. 20 yo local who can play CHF for the next decade, they aren't the type you trade! If they feel like they have a surplus, I think it will be the Big Q who makes way.
