Match Committee- Round 5 vs GWS

Re: Match Committee- Round 5 vs GWS

In: Libba, Lake
Out: Gia, Cordy

As I said in the game thread I don't think 3 Rucks is working. It seems we're trying to hide one of the 3 which doesn't help the team or confidence that matter of Cordy. If they are genuine about Roughy staying back there on the resting rucks then I'm happy to leave it as is. I'd rather Ayce getting some ruck duties though than sit in the forward line so he's the unlucky one to make way for Lake.

Gia apparently has a corked hip so I'd give him a rest this week. Libba comes in for him.

Austin stays in and Marko sits another week.

We can't seriously be considering resting players can we??

We seriously aren't that good and if we rest a few I can see GWS beating us

I wouldn't rest any players but if they are playing sore and can't give at least 80% (Gia) then rest them and give someone fit a go.

Important that players get enough opportunity to recover.

We are in the midst of 2 successive 6 day breaks. Anyone playing sore will really struggle to get up for the Collingwood game.

Spot on. Tick. Correct. Everyone please take note. We can't take any games easy. Cooney must play if not injured. Markovic back in for Austin (sorry but that's how it is). Gia dropped for poor form - in Liberatore. One of the ruckmen has to go (3's a crowd) for Lake. Higgins stays as the super sub - role seems suited to the way he is playing.

We must keep ringing the changes to impress upon players that no-one is guaranteed a spot in the team. Bad game...out.

That's assuming Marko is right to go, of course. And ringing the changes every time someone has a bad game will not bring stability or continuity - two things we're in need of.

Libba's in.

Cordy may hold his spot as well by the sound of this interview.

Re: Match Committee- Round 5 vs GWS

I hedged my bets and was only half right , interesting to see Grant back at FP , Dahlhaus still in the Midfield ( well he's not putting a foot wrong really ) , Gia really did have a hip injury

, good to see Veszpremi starting again , I hope Higgins is the Sub again

Edit : Just re-reading the team list again , it probably would,nt surprise me if Cordy was a late change for Skinner , three ruckman probably not needed for this game

WD, posters commented during last week's game day thread Gia was carrying an injury.
I also find it interesting you put so much weight into the starting positions that are named in the paper!

Gia was named on the Injured List and then removed , not sure why

I can only list the players according what I think it could be , at work no papers, no phone , no tv , so I,m not sure that you have the right person or the right stick , and if you have the right stick then you have the wrong end but I,m definitely the wrong person

Second week in a row, you've posted your team just before at the real team is announced. Not only is it confusing, you've been off the mark twice.
No issue giving your opinion, try it a little earlier.

Work comes first , I,m also having treatment before I have an operation next week , time does get away from me at the moment and it does make it a little harder to work out the matchups
