Stuffit!!

[Scottee]

We can't win the Weagles game. So why not use the opportunity.

Here are my ideas of things to try. (These are based on Campbell being the nominated rookie and on Jolly not playing)

Start Hall in the ruck and put Erickson at FF (because he will demand a tall defender and if not given one will have a natural advantage).

Ruck Erickson later in the game if needed.

Campbell to CHB. That's why we got him isn't it?

Goodes at CHF.

MOL on bench until 2nd half of quarters when the legs are tiring.

LRT as a utility tall.

Spriggs to rove, all day, make use of his stamina and see how he goes.

Jude Bolton to FP (at least he is in form and could lift the confidence of the other forwards). Has pereformed well as a forward before.

McVeigh and Dempster to play all day (same reason)

Crouch as a burst player. Can be used thast way, has been successfully before successfully.

Goodes to CHF.

Kennelly and Dempster to wings.

Maxfield and Buchanan to rotate.

Let's get the team out of the rut!!

What are your thoughts?

I think you're missing this in your post:

Surely you cannot be serious.

Our thoughts? I'll give you my thoughts! You don't exactly know if we will lose by 1, win by 50, or become close.

You mean our players might become close to the WCE players? Does that mean they'll take them to dinner and buy them flowers?

I agree with you completely. That would stuff it.

[BonBon]

Haha, no.

That's what I meant. Scottee doesn't know how we will go.

Not if it was during the game. LRT could take Judd out, that would be a win for us!!

No, that would be a win-win for us!

Re: Stuffit!!

To what? Completely stuff around with our structure??

Start Hall in the ruck and put Erickson at FF (because he will demand a tall defender and if not given one will have a natural advantage).

Cos they have both played so much footy in these positions... Why would you ruck Hall against Cox, especially with the new ruels where Cox will only need to lean over Barry.

LRT as a utility tall.

What in Gods name do you mean by this??

Jude Bolton to FP (at least he is in form and could lift the confidence of the other forwards). Has pereformed well as a forward before

yeah good point... move one of the few players playing well into a position where they wont play well.. good point

McVeigh and Dempster to play all day (same reason)

Same reason as what??

Crouch as a burst player. Can be used thast way, has been successfully before successfully

When has he been used successfully there??! He is best as a tagging player that has the speed to run off his man.

What are your thoughts?

Good post buddy, keep up the good form...

[sharp9]

Personally I would like to see Kennelly on Judd. Very similar sizes and speed (Tiger bigger by one kg and one cm). Give Judd something to think about for a change (like when Willo played on him last year).

Play Goodes in the ruck/on ball whatever you like to call it. That's where he looks his best for sure...dropping back to take a game saver, or surging through the midfield or wing, or possibly floating forward to mark unopposed in the fifty. Mmmmm

Wherever he is needed, a la Hird.

We have a structure...?

Didn't you have a cry in the past when people had a dig at your views...?

No need - they'll get to bend them over anyway.

[NMWBloods]

LOL - true, they won't even need the obligatory kiss!!

[Scottee]

Thanks Sharp9 for your contribution.

Also NMWBloods for a small amount of common sense.

The rest of you. What a joke. Worried about losing our team structure???? What strucure??? Sucessful isn't it!!

Worried about changing our well honed game plan???

Hall can't ruck??? He's a proven ruckman and he has ther power to give us some drive out of the centre. Goodes is shorter than him by the way.

If you want to criticise then be specific so at least you can stand up to some scrutiny yourselves.

LRT as a utiliy tall? To be used like Goodes has been, around the ground or where needed.

The reason for McVeigh and Dempster are to play all day is because they are the fittest in the side along with Spriggs.

Crouch as a burst player. Given that he is underdone and hasn't won the contest this year a change of role is probably called for.

In case it hasn't dawned on you we are playing the hottest side in the competition on their home turf without a recognised ruckman , CHB or FB and our star midfielder. The only value we will get out of this game is if we try something new!!!

I'm afraid a lot of you are sounding like the Swans game plan. Old, tired and fully worked out by the opposition.

If we stick to the same formula then we are sunk before we start. I think Roos knows this.

Was hoping for some creative suggestions.
