Match Committee- Round 8 vs Gold Coast

Re: Match Committee- Round 8 vs Gold Coast

Seems to me that B-Mac is using the fringe players to freshen up the side. For the last few weeks, 2-3 fringe players have come out of the side with 'injuries' only for them to come back in a week later.

In fairness, I did notice Vez stretching his groin out on a number of occasions in the second half last Sunday... both on the field and also when he was on the interchange.

I'm sure both have niggles (and hope it is only that), but really like the way B-Mac is rotating players through and I would like them and Cooney coming into the Geelong game with decent rest.

Not a bad move putting Sherman back with Pat V out , Dahlhaus has been doing well in the midfield but spending more time forward will help with pressure and crumbing , Smith most likely will be the Sub again

I,m not sure if its a good idea or not to Sub Minson in the third , that would mean Cordy has to ruck and get to contests in the 4th and his tank might be nearly empty , we might want to keep the Big Unit fresh but its asking a lot from Cordy

Rory Thompson could give us a few problems if he spends some time forward , he probably would,nt mark just tap it down to players like Ablett and Bennell

This is how I've been reading it as well RT, and I like it. I also like the way our young guys have been getting extended runs.
