Round 1 - Changes vs Carlton

[Smoking Aces]

In: Nank, Martin, Lynch, Ross
Out: Naismith, Samson, Dow, Prestia

Balta to play as second ruck.

I said to give Dow another go but on reflection he was just not competitive.

Prestia wont back up after 5 days and can’t run.

Yes

 

[Coburgtiger]

Out: Ryan, Naismith, Kosi, Banks, Hopper

In: Lynch, Nank, Dusty, Ross, Clarke.

I know, I know. But the midfield needs to change after today. That was not okay. Dow gets one more chance.

Mcaulife must be very close to also playing on Thursday.

 

[Coburgtiger]

Surprised anyone would be leaving Ryan in after today?

 

[Tigga94]

Out: Grimes! Naismith, Ryan, Prestia
In: Brown, Nank, Lynch and Ross.

Dow has to show something against the blues or he should get dropped too for Kane.
Juddy, Trezise and Lefau all pushing too.

 

[Ridley]

Surprised anyone would be leaving Ryan in after today?

Surprised anyone would leave Dow in. 6 (1 kick; 1!) possessions in 72% game time. Yet your dropping Hopper who had 23 touches and 2 goals. Makes no sense.

Dow's pre season form is a furphy; means nothing.

I want a mid / half back rotation of Short, Rioli and Bakes. They all play best off half back and they can all give us something rolling through the midfield.

In Nank, Dusty, Lynch, Ross
Out Ryan, Banks, Kosi, Dow

So u would Dow over Hopper. Whatever yr on I'll have a kilo of it.

 

[Ridley]

In Nank, Dusty, Lynch, Ross
Out Ryan, Banks, Kosi, Dow

Would also like to drop Grimes and Young but not sure we have any better options. Maybe Prestia out too; looks to be going through the motions; McAuliffe? Hungry young kid with a good attitude and strong body.

 

[Coburgtiger]

Yeah.

Dow was worse than Hopper today.

No doubt.

But Dow is trying to step up to AFL and maybe, speculatively, has something. Probably not, but let's just double check.

I know what you get from Hopper. It's not good enough. He tried. But that is the midfield performance we will get with Taranto and Hopper in the middle.

We've seen it before.

We will keep seeing it.

I don't know why would keep persisting?

 

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

In: Tigers

[crackertiger]

Unfair to fully blame Dow for today. What did Hopper, Prestia, Tarranto and others do?
