Re: Ins and Outs

Hopefully Henry is back, probably at the expense of Hastie. I'd also like to give Shoemaker a game in his home state, possibly at the expense of Cordy. Philipou is an interesting one, I was at the game against North and he seemed to be running good patterns, he wasn't really beaten badly in one-on-o...

Re: win banked and move on

The question of forward craft warrants discussion. It was encouraging to see Jack Hayes actually lead toward the ball carrier on a few occasions. This has been lacking, by most, possibly with the exception of Jack Higgins. Max King rarely leads, but rather presents himself as a contested marking opt...

Re: Forward coach under pressure .

Agree that something needs to change, but I'm not sure it's just the forward coach. Our forwards don't mark on the lead, mostly because they don't lead. And the main reason they don't lead is because they're up at the wrong end of the ground. And the reason they're at the wrong end of the ground is ...

Re: Could we get a selection surprise this week?

The surprise I'd like is a revamp of the forwardline. Pick a smaller brigade (drop both Membrey and Sharman) with pace. Butler out for lack of impact. The tall forwards aren't taking advantage of the height difference in the matchups it creates, so try something else. Out: Butler, Sharman, Membrey ...

Re: Saints once again under appreciated by the media

Re: Isaac Keeler

Thought Collard was too small and immature to be selected, but we picked him anyway.

So lets get on a roll, and give Keeler a crack as well. He just might be a unicorn.

Re: Changes for tge Richmond at Gather Round.

I'd seriously consider brining in Schoenmaker for Bonner. Garcia for Windhager seems obvious, but might not happen. I'd bring back King for Sharman. Caminiti just seeks to offer a little bit more in terms of physicality and tackling ability. I'd give Wilson another go. I certainly wouldn't drop him...

Was similar to Plugger and Caven for me. Ran back blindly and ran into a guy leading. Will go to grave saying Plugger did nothing wrong.

Neither surprised or disappointed to see Wanganeen get the coaches votes. Personally I was expecting Windhager may have been voted best, at least by our coach. In my humble opinion, he made the difference, aside from the numerous possessions, hard ball 'gets', clearances, tackles and 1% ers he also ...

They are very tall.

Essendon have 2 ruckman, in Draper & Goldstein and we only have Marshall.

And they have a couple of 2m forwards, although Peter Wright may not play. Cox & laVerde are both very tall.
