    Re: Match Committee - Round 20 vs St. Kilda

    I think that Cooney, Higgins and Roberts miss out. Darley did just enough over he last few weeks to earn another go, I'd like to see Honeychurch at AFL level again, Wood went back to the reserves and did what he was asked to do and Gia hopefully to crash Lenny Hayes's party.

    Cooney really needs to dominate a game or two to get some confidence back, Higgins deserves another run in the twos and Campbell deserves a decent run in the seniors so Redpath misses out.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        How did the MC watch the seconds last week and possibly think Redpath was the best of the forwards?

            Do you think Jack will actually play? I don't think there was much to be gained by watching any of our forwards last week. We won by 130 pts and Jones, Cordy and Grant were certainly far from impressive.

                I think we kicked 6 goals last week and the only chance of a change to it is for the least effective of the four (five if you count Dickson) from the VFL to come in.

                    Yep.. I guess we are happy for Roughy to have his pants pulled down each week.

                        Who is Roughy going to play on this week?

                        Stanley is far to quick and athletic and Rewoildt would have him blow up after 10 minutes.

                        The real worry is, a player like Carisle should be Roughy's perfect match up.

                                Need another key back to play( Talia or Roberts)

                                    I didn't see last week's game but I still have a few concerns re: MC.

                                    - Surely at this point of the year, we should be getting games into one of Roberts or Talia. I favour Roberts who has had a pretty solid year, and done OK at AFL level when given the chance. Additionally, our backs are regularly smashed - so why wouldn't we play him? It doesn't really make any sense from a short OR long term perspective. What are we trying to achieve?

                                    - Cooney has to be incredibly lucky to still be in the side. He was woeful v Essendon and apparently not much better v Hawthorn. It's hard to understand why he's playing, besides the fact his last name is 'Cooney'.

                                        Can't agree with that this week. Morris is the best match for Riewoldt, Macca has already said that he will play on him. Roughead takes Stanley and Austin takes Bruce. Not sure what the advantage would be playing another tall defender?

                                        There is certainly a case to argue about the makeup of the key defenders though (Roughy & Austin v Roberts & Talia).

                                            Rough will get torched if he plays on Stanley, and not because Rhys is good, but there's no chance Rough can run with him.

                                                Agree with this. Austin May play on Stanley

                                                        Rightly or wrongly, it was pretty clear after hearing Maccas press conference after the Hawthorn loss that Cooney wasn't going to get dropped and would be given time to get back to full fitness etc. Let's just hope he doesnt dish up what he has the last 2 weeks.

                                                            They made an example of Macrae? Didn't miss a game. If you are talking about him being made sub, Coons has too in recent weeks.
