From what Astbury did last week, i dont think he is ready physically to play a full game.

He didnt play the last qtr against Nth Ballarat so i would say he needs more conditioning before he plays seniors.

Rance at Full Back...

*sighs*

I suppose with Taylor and Astbury in that pushes Rance out of the forward line. His opponent will probably be Newton who isn't a footballers shoelace so should be a good match up that he should win.

Side looks pretty good. Anyone think Deledio could be tried as a Goddard/Shaw/Hodge/Kennally type off half back as a quarter back type player. Seems that all the really good sides have there best player running out of defence. Think it was tried before in one of a million roles tried for Deledio wouldn't mind seeing him try it for 4 weeks straight.

it's Dea and Taylor that are playing.

if they are named in the starting 18, they are playing!

this thread should be changed!

well done Dea and Taylor!

Please don't tell me they will end up selecting the three miniature Musketeers again in King, Edwards and Farmer or I will throw something at my TV.

Great to see Dea and Taylor in, please boys make the most of your chances.

I/C : Ty Vickery, David Astbury, Graham Polak, Andy Collins

Would have to go back a long time to see a worse Tiger half back line than that.

At least with those 4 we add badly needed height, structure and flexibility with our talls.

Hopefully we don't see Kingy ever again and he plays out his final year at Coburg.

That backline the way it is named is highly skilled by foot isn't it  :help.

Hardwick just needs to take a gamble on this game and not try to bandaid the holes with players like King that just have not got it with our structure. You are dead right about the backline, could be the difference with the amount of turnovers that lot could generate.. :scream

We've got to hope Rance at FB doesn't have another Launceston implosion  :-\. The Dees don't have any star tall forwards so I'd guess we're hoping we can get away with just Rance and Moore in the key posts and the rest smalls. Posty may have to go down there if Alex and Kel struggle. Edwards and White should not be playing in defence. They are HFFers at best.

Rance really has the chance to stand up here doesn't he, agree with you on Edwards and White but IMHO Edwards should really be making hot dogs.. ;D I hope Dea can show a bit too. If anything maybe rotate Edwards and White through the forward line at some stage during the game.

Now MT listen to this then, while I was watching Tony (I am a stuff wit) Shaw tonight on Fox League Teams Live tonight he said; He has no idea why Tambling plays out of the bacline because he can't play there and he is no good in the backline. He also said that Tambling should be played on the wing, through the centre and forward...I agree with you, I think he has played some of his BEST football as a rebounding back flanker...... Shaw is God though.. ::) :whistle

Leave out Hislop, King and Farmer. A big blow Will not back in. Agree take a risk play the first gamers. It gives fans some hope. Play edwards up forward. Need to keep bates quite. Brett needs to dominate this game. He needs to impose himself. Trent hopefully will have a blinder. Agree with comments playing Tambling off backline. Play Polak at Centre Half Forward and put Post in the backline.

Post has to be the luckiest bloke in that team. Some of his efforts last week looked worse onthe replay than they did live at the game  ;D

I would think he survived only because of the forced suspensions

Anyway I'd play Polak because he can play down back in a pich but more important as a forward will straigthen us up and give us a big body

Will confess to being staggered that Collins has made it to the extended I/C - he wasn't great last week disposal wise at Coburg. Nahas is the same, actually in Nahas' case was he playing last week at Coburg  :rollin

Dead right, said it ages ago, why the hell did we promote him if we wern't going to play him from round one, should have waited or promoted Gourdis IMO.

Yep I agree with this WP, Post is going through a reality adjustment in regards to what it takes to play at senior level he's blowing up under pressure, just like Rance blew up in Tasmania. It looks like they are out of their depth and in reality they are, but ground time and more games and good development they will become accustomed to the speed of the game and this will enable them to find more time and space and relax more.
