Foley has been playing more as an inside ball winner this season who then spreads beautifully and links up well to get it into the better ball users hands. Who will go into the stoppages and take this role?
-
Conca The Red Wog
-
Foley's role is a inside mid who can also burst away. For some reason I can see Dimma going with Titch.
-
Personally i would put O'hanlon on the forwrd line and leave Maric as sub and run Conca in Foley's spot.. That leaves Dea in defence and Nahas and Edwards in the forwrd line.. This gives us a slightly taller forward line as well. Then when the time comes we sub in little Maric for the extra pace in the 2nd half..
If its pouring rain we go for the smaller forward line

Conca The Red Wog
This.
-
Dea back means Conca can run through the middle.
I reckon Conca will dominate tomorrow, a real break out game.

Agree. Then Foley will be back and we will be thinking where the stuff do we put Foley. :pray
-
Foley's actually a big out, he has been one of our form players. Our midfeild depth will get a little challenge this Sat.
Agree that Conca will be the man. Edwards I see him as being grooved for this small forward crumbing roll which he has been doing well of late
-
Conca was having extra shots at goal at training today.
Think that he might play forward to cover Jake King ?
-
I wonder if they'll try mini Maric in the middle. That's where he was starring for Coburg, wasn't he?
-
Conca. Has the ability to win the hard ball. Leave Edwards up forward

Amaric is more a winger/hff @ coburg this year. I think, dont think hes playing in the tuck/foley role. Id like to see ellis and conca fill the void. I see ellis/conca/martin long term starting mids allowing our best to play forward.
I fear he is too outside to replace foley. Id love to see ohanlon start the game in the forward line.
-
Yes Conca probably is the best choice. Mini Maric is not hard enough imo and Edwards is also too slight. Conca is still lacking in the core strength you gain from multiple preseasons and experience but I can't think of anyone else who could get on the bottom of the packs and win the ball. Perhaps Dusty will be given this role more for this game? Tuck and Cotch will need to work even harder than normal to compensate with Cotch up against the best tagger in the competition :-\

Lids inside work is not too shabby
-
matty white lol cos jackwad says he will play :shh :shh :thumbsup :shh :thumbsup

Yep missed him at the stoppages in particular
No one stood up to take his role today = very disappointing

one of the better mids goes down just one and what happens. we need jacko or houli or nahas to step up and we know it aint going to happen. didnt help with deldio getting totally shut out of the game either.
if anything today reinforces the lack of depth and quality in all positions.
word is foley will miss next week as well cotchin has a fracture jack looked proppy and all of a sudden the cracks appear.
im dirty on them actually because we have failed to address the situation with out of form players continuing to make as few changes as possible for no other reason than the team performed okay. look at vickery today he really does think he doesnt have to perform to get a game.
two or three games into derickx could be a godsend now. a couple of games into elton as well would not have hurt.
and imo while not the future graham could have a few senior games under his belt for no other reason than hes earnt it.
arnot is an inside mid and played some decent footy at coburg earlier in the yr. a couple of games into a genuine inside player dropping poorly performed players and theres been plenty every week leaves us in a better place than maybe throwing him in the deepend with a lot of the better players missing.
we were not in a position to stop playing kids and we did just that. the depth will only improve when kids get experience and can take a step up or two.
today has been coming for weeks and if the injuries come there will be plenty more like today.
who takes foleys place. for me id give arnot a game. id also be looking at connors in the forward line . derickx regardless of form for vickery. and and one of post or elton to play as a permanent kpf.
