    • A.Francis 0.3 (1) - 00.00%


    Time to move Callum to FF.

    Gulden is surprising given how good a kick he usually is. Last year he kicked 18.6 (3 no scores) at 66.67% so he's definitely a huge drop off. Both Heeney and Franklin (our top 2 goalkickers last year) were 56%, and Hayward who was 3rd had 53%.
    Its the set shots that are killing me

      I think we should play two Rucks - Jackson just had his best game for Fremantle and they have Darcy as well. Stephens on Serong to prove we made the right pick!

      Alternate out is McLean and we stick Francis into the backline.

      Thoughts?
      Sheather only has bone bruising. He could yet come up. Stephens would be more than ok if he didn't. The Jackson/Darcy match up is going to be problematic. If we don't get another tall back there we are at a huge disadvantage just like we were against Cats. I think Francis has to go back. I thought he was pretty good when he came on and played back. A few really strong spoils and he did not let his man go too often.

      McLean was good last week hard to drop when in such good form. It wasn't his fault our mids ran out of petrol.

      Hickey got 38 HO and 13 disposals in the reserves. I think 13 is pretty poor in the VFL for a top flight player. McAndrew got 33 & 19 and he's a rookie ruck. Not sure Hick is ready yet, although 38 HO is outstanding.

      I am worried about the forward/mids disconnect. I am of the opinion Bud should be rested. He was very poor last week. Seemed rushed, did not make position well and was murdered by Moore. If Amartey were fit I would say Bud to Sub. In fact I am still of the opinion sub would be best this week. He can pinch hit. Come on and be a fresh player when the backs are tired.
      Maybe Hall-Khan to come in.

        Bud wont be sub, he is on the list this year to Play. I reckon he is the opposite of being rushed in that he thinks he has more time then he does.

        If Hickey is fit he plays surely, especially this week.

          Ladhams and McCartin (Tom) both ruled out for this week.

            Surely Hickey and McAndrew should be in? We need some tall timber!

              I suspect The Pelican might get a game this week.

                Gould will be the one coming in for Tommy.

                      Harley Reid would be a good pick up for us

                      So now it is possibly:

                      Outs: Ladhams (inj), McCartin (inj), Sheather (inj), Francis (sub)

                      Ins: Hickey, McAndrew, Francis, Stephens (sub)

                      Two rucks to compete against Darcy and Jackson, and Francis to play with McClean as tall defenders. Though I would like to Stephens play and perform on par with or better than Serong.

                        McCartin Concussion has to be a real worry, funny how things turn so quickly

                            AFL site says
                            ———
                            SYDNEY

                            In: T.Hickey, W.Gould
                            Out: T.McCartin (concussion), P.Ladhams (arm), M.Sheather (omitted)

                            Last week's sub: Aaron Francis
                            ——-

                            We are short one in to replace Sheather who is omitted rather than injured. So could be Francis or Stephens with the other to be the sub I think.

                            Surprised they are going to throw a recovering Hickey and undersized McLean at Jackson and Darcy though.

                                Francis is in the starting lineup. The sub will come from the emergencies listed which are Sheldrick, Sheather, Stephens, and McAndrew. My stab in the dark is Sheldrick as sub.
