Changes for Rnd 11 V Bombers

[swanspant12]

Geez i cant wait for goodesy to come back. Rohan and Goodesy, only 2 injuries but they provide our x factor both up forward and in the midfield. Parker, Mcglynn, Goodes, Rohan and an underdone ruckman i dont think we can beat the bummers.

Cunningham has just been upgraded to the senior list in Rohan's spot. It doesn't necessarily mean he's in the XXII of course as he would also need to be elevated to be named as an emergency. However it does make sense that his pace would be a handy asset to have against the Bombers.

Roos said OTC this week that Goodes would probably be back after the bye.

With Cunningham's elevation I'd expect Mal + Harry (sub) in for Benny + Parks. Would mean a defender would have to play further up the ground with Rhyce, Mal, Smith and Armstrong starting as small defenders. Maybe Eski off a wing where his occasional defensive issues don't hurt as much plus the ability to hit leading forwards.

I think at some point they'd like to get back to Mummy + LRT rucking with Reid + Spang as tall fwds, but maybe not this week.

[GongSwan]

I hope they give Harry a start, probably as the sub, his speed would be great to have late in the game. I also think Eski comes in plays off the wing and becomes a link man. Armstrong maybe HBF. Against Dons we def need 2 ruckmen

[The_Jam]

As for LRT being dropped, I think there might be some value in playing him on Fletcher and stopping Dustin from effectively rebounding. I seem to remember a game last year, against the lions, were LRT played a negative roll on Merrett and pinched a few goals as well.

[GongSwan]

LRT might be one pf teh few who stand a chance of out gadgeting Fletch

[On-Baller]

Not a bad idea ie Lrt to fletch but personally id swap Kennedy and Bird on him respectively when they rest forward,these guys would provide better pressure i believe and id like to see LRT stay as a permanent forward to give Reid a chop out .I really cant fathom how Mitchell isnt at least a chance for the sub with the bye coming up i would think a quarter at seniors level then a break could be the taste he needs to get involved in the back end of the season.Im glad to see Cunningham get a go again but i saw a fair bit of Tom at junior level and he moves around the ground like a young Diesel Williams and the sooner he is getting a game the better.

We have had a good track record at waiting on the kids to be ready but Mitchell is an exception to the normal rules,the kid is a freak ball getter and injurys not playing a part he will be a champion player,nothing surer.

Pykey has been exceptional in his effective tap outs but this week im leaning towards White or Spangher if fit to come in,the only reason for this is matchups as BellChambers and Ryder are both very athletic players and especially Ryder who i cant see Pykey being able to run with or effect when he sprints forward.Unfortunately for Mike its so important to get game time into Mummy he may be the one who loses out this week.

Changes id like to see are

Outs-Mcglynn,Parker,Pyke
In-Mitchell,Gordon,Spangher or Jesse if Spangher isnt ready yet for full game.

Likely changes
out- Parker,Mcglynn
In-Malceski,Cunningham.

Malceski and Everitt in

Didn't see that coming. Not happy John.

[JudesaGun]

Wtf??!!!

If we weren't top heavy last week, we sure are now.

How does Everitt keep getting a game? Has he really been outperforming Morton?

[Plugger46]

I thought it would happen. Don't rate the selections.

[ernie koala]

Malceski and Everitt in

Great, Nick the turnover, non tackling, expert.
What a dud in. The only place I would play him is in the forward line, he can kick goals....but no forward pressure
I assume Everitt will again be the sub...which he's done ok a few times ....but hmmmm?

[Melbourne_Blood]

He'll probably be the sub, Mal I guess to play on a wing. Certainly haven't replaced like for like, we've lost a lot of hardness in this exchange...
