    Match Committee- Round 5 vs GWS

    If you were on the match committee what changes would you make for the game against GWS?

    A brief explanation of your selections would be good

    Lake is an automatic inclusion and I wonder if Markovic will be available?

      No need to change to much now that we are winning
      BB.

      Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

          Do we know what was wrong with Markovic?

            They mentioned a hamstring but they didn't say if it was bad or not.

            Dropping Austin against GWS? I would have thought he could be used for another week.

              IN Lake Libba
              OUT Cordy Gia (he's got to be injured, doesn't he?)

              Not sure on Marko's availability.

                I fail to see why you would retain Austin if Markovic is fit enough to come in.
                I would prefer another key forward like Tom Hill tried as we still lack another key forward who can mark and kick. Cordy was clearly not the answer up forward.

                  Depending on medical management of Cooney - suggest a rest against GWS but then I'm not looking at his knee.

                  In - Lake, Markovic (if fit), Libba, Skinner
                  Out - Gia (needs a rest, he's is better than what he is showing), Austin (if Markovic in), Wood (continues to use it very poorly, can't tolerate this, would rather a half fit Vez who can kick), Cooney (rest)

                  Start both Vez and Higgins who slides in to replace Wood on back flank. We need better kicking out of the backline and we are too reliant on Murphy, and good teams will shut him down.

                  Would consider Smith but would like him to kick better, but then if hasn't fixed it now he probably won't improve much this year. Smith should really only come in for a poor user like Djerkurra, Addison, Boyd or Cross.

                    A lot of Cordy knockers in here tonight. Brought it to ground for Sherman to snap. Otherwise was a bright sunny day wasn't it? Perfect for talls. Give the kid a break. Did well I thought.

                      So Smith (3 games) in for the captain?

                        I'd be inclined to play Lake forward this week. Normally I'd resist, but I think against GWS the ball will be down there a bit, gives Brian a bit of an opportunity, might take a bit of pressure of Jones & allows Autsin/Markovic another run.

                          Sorry to distress you champ, should have typed based on injury or form. So obviously Boyd is not going to be dropped unless he is injured.

                            Agree with that. A shocking day for talls. I don't think he was that bad.

                              Not so much a knocker from my behalf just don't think we can persist with him as a forward. I'd love to get some game time in him as a ruck but it's not going to happen with Will and Roughy in front of him.
