You want the club to play its tallest 5 players and yet you also want them to drop LRT?

Erikson is not ready.

Saddo, James, Doyle and Sundqvist are all injured.

Matthew Davis played, I think, his first game back from injury at the weekend and is still raw and finding touch.

Schaubs probably will return.

Bevan may not have the best skills, but he at least has a red hot go, which does not apply to many at present. He should stay in before Schneider who looks finished for mine, the sensible haircut may not save his career, it may just be a place in the Muppets.

How can you say his career is over at the grand old age of 20! Get real!

Especially when your second year was practically null due to injury.

Out: Crouch/Mathews, Buchanan.
In: Schmidt, Macelski.

That would do it for me. Bevan to play in back pocket. Crouch is not fit. The role he plays, requires full fitness. If not Crouch, Mathews to go.

Schmidt to help out Bolton and Kirk.

Macelski to play as an outside midfielder to add a bit of spark to the dull midfield.

Dont think we should play Schaubles yet. Two games after a long layoff is too little a preparation for a senior game. With M'oL is nurtured through at the moment, the last time we want is a half-fit player on the bench.

Spot on.

Schneider has no accountability, does not do the hard things and is a very lazy footballer. He doesn't have the skill of a Nick Davis to get away with being lazy.

Well it has not really started but playing dumb football when he is fit does not a long career make! So let's just say his career may not be over before it started if he improves

his workrate
his decision making
his fitness

for starters....

[Wazza]

Does anyone else think Roos will approach this game against the Eagles with one thing on his mind - dont get smashed get ready for an ultra defensive display this week.

Why are some of you saying bring Saddington back? he didnt play on the WE?

Drop LRT is getting a bit tiresome hes doing ok and isnt as bad as some of you are posting worth sticking with for a couple more games.

Cheers

Oh so I suppose that after 2 hamstring tears and operation on your hand and another hamstring strain you would be bounding with confidence and flair ready to take teams apart!

Come on mate - his fitness is improving (it takes longer than a few months to improve fitness - its a start and he is 100% fitter than he was last year) and decision making comes with experience - and he really has only played 1 full year of AFL footy and workrate comes with fitness....

Think about it.

I just hope that Roos does not go ultra defensive. The day that a side plays just to lose by as little margin as possible and does not go for a win will start to signal the death of this great game.

I would rather go for a shootout and lose by 10 goals then ultra flood, kick 7 goals ourselves and still lose by 30 odd points.

We go over to Subiaco to win!

Probably best time to play WC. Been 'up' for a long time, thrashed Brisbane on the longest road trip of the AFL with a 6 day break and no one expecting us to get within 10 goals.

I reckon it will be closer then most people think and it is within the realms of possibility that we may even win!!

Is that what you meant to say?

(Though I fear you are probably right.)
