Conca out of that lineup for me should be first one dropped even before Ellis.

Conca should have been dropped. Miles should have been included. Hope Prestia is able to play.

 So going by the VFL side.....

In's likely to be Prestia, Vlastuin, Higgins and maybe a player for Conca.... ? Garthwaite or Menadue  :pray

I don’t get it. Is miles slower than Conca? If he is I don’t see it.
I also don’t see what Conca brings to the team ahead of Miles.

I’d rather a bloke who can extract the pill and feed it off to teammates rather than a player that either turns it over or gives it to teammates that are in a worse predicament.

Conca plays in defence. Not a like for like replacement to be debating one to be in the team ahead of the other. Selectors must think they have enough rotations through the midfield already and want an extra body in defence. Lloyd on the other hand being picked ahead of miles is a mystery to me I guess Prestia comes in as a pure mid to take over from cellis who was doing stuff all and Lloyd to play caddy’s mid/fwd role? Higgins a like for like replacement for Bolton with vlastuin taking back his spot in defence and hopefully conca dropping out.

Going by what Dimma said today, you'll be on the money, dwaino.

Yes RFC website saying he has glute soreness and it's unrelated to his hamstring issue

That's not ideal then, we're really missing his inside work.

Post by: georgies31 on April 06, 2018, 05:31:50 PM
Lloyd in that's a joke hasn't did anything preseason.Menadue and Miles ahead.I reckon we lack pace in this side.

That should be the problem with half the team from last week from the coaching staff kicking them up the backside.... :shh

time will tell but looks like a mistake here.  A mistake i can safely say has already been made is conca still in the team.

Title: Re: Official round 3 team vs Hawks

Conca still in baffling for me.So many better players in vfl form.

At least we get to see who is running around tomorrow in the twos. It may give us some insight to any late changes.

Is the match committee serious!  Conca still playing?

Macintosh, Castagna and BEllis are also very lucky to be playing.

I’m not sure what Conca has done to retain his spot or they seriously think Menadue or Markov aren’t better than him as yet? I don’t understand this at all. Surely either of these guys are better than Conca? 

Also I’d like to see if the BEllis doesn’t poo himself on Sunday.

A real worry we were beaten convincingly in contested possession last week and the team selections have not really addressed that issue. Retaining Conca also a real worry.
