Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

[GVGjr]

If you were on the match committee what changes would you make for next Sundays game against Essendon at Etihad.

As usual a brief explanation for your changes would be good for discussions.

What changes can we make?

Re: Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

Any news on JJ? Ugly hit and may miss next week.

Will needs help in the ruck but I just don't see him getting any with Cordy. He's got to go back to the VFL.

Dickson was ordinary and I'd also consider dropping him.

Re: Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

Out: Cordy, Wallis, Stringer (rest)

In: Roberts, Grant. Hunter

The match committee must do something about the forward line. Roberts can't do any worse than 5 handballs for the day.

Campbell is too lumbering like a Cordy.

I'll give this some more thought but this doesn't appear to be enough changes. Also we probably have to assume Johannisen won't be playing.

I'd have Picken, Lower and Cross in the mix

Yes good point on Picken.

Re: Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

Grant has to play.
Ayce was useless today. Stringer badly needs a rest, Macrae could probably do with one as well. Dahl is probably in career worst form - he's only 20, probably needs a week off as well.
He's been in good VFL form, just give him a chance.

Don't know what's going on with Ayce, even in his bad games Jones looks significantly more dangerous. At least he always competes hard and provides a strong chase

[always right]

Re: Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

Don't understand why you'd drop Dahl the week after he plays his best game in two months. Picken has to come in but Lower and Cross? Could we get any slower?

I suspect the MC is going to stick with Cordy no matter what....even though I agree Fletcher would be a better bet.

In: Picken, Young
Out : JJ (assuming he's not right), Tutt

Not sure what game you were watching .
Dahlhaus played well, as did Macrae.
Stringer struggled, Cordy has one arm and gets outbodied.
Don't think I'd be Bringing in Cross ( we already have to many one paced types)

Dahl was good in the last.
More that he'd be better with a week off to rest rather than criticism of his game

Grant does not have to play at all. he's a turnip. His form at willy is lamentable, he doesn't deserve a game simple really.

Out: Dickson, Cordy, Stringer
In: Hunter, Roberts, Cross

time to roll the dice on fletch!

Re: Match Committee - Round 16 vs Essendon

Time to change up the forward line

In: Grant, Roberts, Hunter
Out: Jones, Cordy, Stringer

I thought Tutt redeemed himself with a good last quarter, but I guess overall he was not great. I would give him another week.

Agree. Kicked a couple of goals. Definitely not the worse. Be silly to drop him after one week.
