        Twitter saying no injuries from the game. Boyd some chance to return.

        No change for me. Our senior players were who let us down today, or young or fringe players were amongst our best.

            Don't get me wrong.....as soon as he gets some match fitness, I'm all for getting him into the side at CHF.
            I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                I'm sure many will disagree but I'd be inclined to play Williams forward and switching into the ruck and make Cordy and Jones fight it out for the other key forward role. Protecting Williams won't stop him getting injured, and he's not young anymore, throw him into it and hopefully he strings a few together before he gets injured again.

                    I think we should get Roughead to do it. He has been pretty good in defense, but with Morris and Young going well I think we should take advantage of his rucking ability. Cordy isn't doing enough to hold his spot.
                    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                        I can't agree with you on that gogriff. Roughead looks every bit a 200 game full back and I wouldn't be keen to interupt that at the moment.

                            Roberts would be good. Like to have more of a look at him.
                            Would you have him down back or up forward lemmon?

                                Neither has Roberts.. well at least at AFL level.

                                    Stringer for Cordy. Jake might not be really ready, but if he's physically OK, it's worth a roll of the dice IMO. For mine, Cordy is just a passenger.

                                            No changes is my preference unless Boyd is fit, in which case he comes in. Who goes out? Probably Stevens or Smith, purely because their sub selections put them on the periphery. Gia, Higgins and Dickson have enough runs on the board to cover for one bad performance.
                                            Macrae was the best at Willy and he is unlikely to greatly improve the senior team at this stage of his career.

                                            In: Boyd if fit
                                            Out: Stevens, but only if Boyd is available.

                                                The thing with Cordy and Jones if they held their marks between them they would have at least 10- 15 shots at goal and even at a 50% strike rate it would give us 7 - 8 goals a game and be in a strong winning position.

                                                Take 1 or 2 marks between them and take the 50% strike rate makes hard to win anything.

                                                        They are battling and you cannot fault their endeavor but the skill level just isn't there at the moment. To be honest they both look best when there on the move. Maybe it's a fitness thing or concentration lapses.

                                                            Jones. Not ideal I know, but those two up front isn't working. If we had a better option I'd give Jones a spell too. Not sure how Tom Campbell is tracking.
