    ------------------------------------
    I think we're going to have to look outside the box to replace JJ (and also overlook how sad it is that we have to look outside the box to replace a sub-20 game player). Ideally Howard or Pearce could come in and fill his role, but they are both not good at football so maybe not.

    Picken to a back pocket, with the instruction to take the game on? We all know he has limited disposal, but he is one of the few guys on the list with the speed to come close to JJ. Maybe Grant? He would be a liability defensively but JJ rarely takes the most dangerous forward. Plus he has all of the other necessary qualities.

    I know these are not appealing suggestions, but the cupboard is bare.

          Howard would probably get given a chance for JJ, but I think he's still out after his hip operation.

              Yes he does F'scary I agree there. But he is not on his own. With 18 disposals and 2 goals it was a reasonable game from him.

                Macrae got the fumbles yesterday as well, that seemed to go unnoticed. Macca gave Tutt a little bit of praise in the Press Conference yesterday. Regardless of what he does he's got to get at least 3 - 4 consecutive games.

                  I got the feeling Tutts praise was due to the local press wanting to hear about the local kid. I think Tutt is gone at years end.

                    I think if a player of his limited experience is going to be getting games towards the end of the season and follows the training and discipline instructions from BMc they'll get at least another year owing to the new VFL team control.

                    The delistings will come from an older and more experienced bracket.

                      Out - JJ

                      In - Young

                      We won the game so the MC has an opportunity to show faith in the players who played.

                        57 forward 50 entries to 36, and we won the game by 4 points. Our forward line is dysfunctional.
                        If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                            Out: JJ, Cordy,

                            In: Young, Hunter

                            I'd be tempted to bring in another tall defender so Roughy can give Will a chop out in the ruck, on form it would be most likely be Redpath which would be a huge leap of faith.

                              I had Hunter, Roberts and Grant coming in this week. I would also move Cooney forward, I would say Murphy as well but JJ is out

                              Cooney Grant Dickson
                              Dahlhaus Roberts Smith
