Changes for Rnd 2 v Dockers

[Kirkari]

In: Shaw, Seaby
Out: Parker, Everitt

Would love to see Lamb in but I think Cunningham will get another run.

[aardvark]

I would also drop everitt for anyone whos keen for a game

I'll play !! Just plonk me in the square and don't expect any forward pressure or goals for that matter. Hang on, I think i'm over qualified for our forward line.

We had a player who only had to put a boot on a bouncing ball running the same way to score a goal and couldn't.Name started with "E" I seem to remember.

You miss the criteria however of never having been a forward before,having no natural gift for slotting majors and having previously kicked bags of goals in the reserves.All that would disqualify you from the forward line of the Swans!

So Everitt's our new Bevo?

So Everitt's our new Bevo?

Bevo's courage was never questioned and his reckless tackling gave away a lot of frees but also hurt the opposition. He could nail a fast opponent whereas Everitt can't get close enough.There was also a legitimate debate about how Bevo was used by the Swans.Many of us ,myself included, thought he should have been in the forwards as a defensive forward who could also kick a goal when required. Bevos fumbles were often in front of their goals and were always punished severely which frustrated many. Everitt simply can't play...no debate needed.

More like new Ben Matthews

[GongSwan]

With Parker injured, the chances of Everitt getting another run are up, ROK and Shaw seem unlikely at this point, so we really need a defensive midfielder to come in for Parks. I'd probably give Lamb a go, he and Jude can switch mid/forward to share the workload, it's really a question of hardness, I'm not sre how quick Lamb is and we will need leg speed to play Freo. To name a team now would be premature, I'd wait to see if we get anyone back from injury and who is the best ruck combo, I have no idea who plays second ruck for Freo and whether yd want LRT's height or White's strong body???????? They will not play Mummy and Seaby in the same team

[Melbourne_Blood]

I would have thought White would be pretty much the same height as LRT, i think he is 196cm, how tall is LRT ?

[Primmy]

I watched TDL on Sat and he has brought his overall game up another few levels, still holding his ability to slip between the logs and out into the open and belt one home. Lost nothing of his "style" and gained a lot in his gamesmanship.

I would be surprised NOT to see him in the Freo game.

They would be advised to move Seaby in as well, if he now has enough game time up his sleeve. I think that's all that's holding him back at the present.

I am not going to post Incy as the new whipping boy, but.....he isn't good enough. Just good. Not good enough. I would have Seaby in over Incy at present.

Barlow.

[blinddog]

Outs: Parker inj, Everett, LRT
Ins: Seaby or White, Shaw, O'Keefe (if fit) otherwise Cunningham, and TDL sub

[Primmy]

Barlow.

No, I won't have that. Incy puts in effort.

[ShockOfHair]

No, I won't have that. Incy puts in effort.

I acknowledge it's harsh, cruel even, but the tough love will do Andrejs good.

[Hartijon]

Outs: Parker inj, Everett, LRT
Ins: Seaby or White, Shaw, O'Keefe (if fit) otherwise Cunningham, and TDL sub

Cunningham needs a game .Its much harder for a novice being subbed on in the last quarter.They try too hard and realise they have to impress quickly. TDL also might be in trouble as a sub as there is no guarantee where he might have to play. Therefore Cunningham to the reserves TDL into the starting side and use Shaw who can play forward or back and is not fully match hardened as the sub. LRT should be kept and given the same role again while Parkers replacement should be Lamb So out Cunningham (unless given a full game) Everitt and Parker, in TDL and Lamb then one tall either Seaby/Pyke or White.

[ernie koala]

Everitt doesn't do it for me....but he's fairly well suited to being a sub.
Played it a few times last year, from memory, and did quite well.

So....
OUT : Parker, LRT, Cunningham
IN : Seaby, TDL, Shaw

Sub : Everitt
