Floss possible gone too via the MRP.

Garthwaite for Vlastuin
For Conca I'd love to see Bolton played as a winger or even Menadue if he can repeat his seconds effort from last week this week. If Kamdyn plays well, he'll come in most probably though or Lloyd or CEllis.

I thought so. Would be the obvious one you'd think.

Out:  Reece and Nick (susp).  Vlastuin a huge out of he goes which he will. 

In:  Corey and Garthwaite

An extra tall defender will come in handy against the Crows. 
Rance to Tex and Astbury to Jenkins this time around.  Garth to Fogarty

And no matter what we must put a player with B Gibbs as he gets 3 votes almost every time he plays against us.

I think Menadue and Garthwaite to come in. I'd love to see Drummond get a go, but can't see it at the moment.


Don't see that C.Ellis has the defensive side of his game to replace the two outs in Floss and Conca.

As much as I feel sorry for Conca, and I think he is a decent backup player, he definitely isn’t in my best 22 at the club. For all the good things he does, he gives it straight back just as much.

I would bring back McIntosh and Townsend for Conca and Vlastuin this week. Both hard nuts that don’t get heaps of footy, but neither do our 3 Amigos. But they all play their rolls. We now out muscle sides which is something I can not ever think we have done. Let’s not give sides an inch when it comes to heat at the footy and the man.

Vlastuin missing a week isn’t the end of the world either, just another nice little freshener leading into the last part of the season. Next week when available I would be looking at Higgins as the unlucky one.

Just my opinion.

Vlastuin was having a night out against Sydney, Who are you going to replace him with for Adelaide?  Grigg was garbage.  Dunno what is going on with Dusty, he looks off his tucker big time.

Goes to show that you can't think like that or you loose. Will be a tough game as they have heaps to play for.

Think we should win at home though.
Ellis and Gartwaite in for me.

Think both of these guys deserve the call up.

CEllis will get smashed. AFL doesn't afford him the time & space he needs like the VFL does. Wasn't all that great yesterday anyway, despite his numbers.:shh

Out: Vlastuin, Conca,

In: Garthwaite , Bolton/Baker

Would also like too see Moore in for Higgins -who didn't play badly but we need another marking option as Adelaide always kill us in the air. :shh

I thought Higgins played well enough in a more midfield role against the Swans to suggest that Miles' papers are well and truly stamped now.

I was eager to see Miles return to the seniors only acknowledge why he isn't a regular in our side so I would agree, he wont get a recall this year

McIntosh in for Vlastuin and C Ellis in for Conca is what i think will happen.
If Bolton or Stengle came in for Conca how would that work?

Garthwaite is a key position defender so he won't come in for a small defender like Floss. Houli would be the obvious in but if he is still 2 weeks away as taz says then there's going to need to be some re-jigging with our small/mid defenders. Brandon Ellis will have to do Floss' role (thankfully Betts is still out) and we bring in someone to do the HB role Brandon was doing. That's likely McIntosh or Menadue. Corey Ellis to come in for Conca as his role in the VFL side is similar to what Reece's was in the seniors.

No way Kmac comes in form in vfl game wasn't great.
Title: Re: Changes for the Crows game?
Post by: TFL on July 02, 2018, 07:50:14 AM
I would think Garthy comes in and Broad switches to the Vloss interceptor role.

Throw Corey Ellis in the middle and there we go.

He wouldn't play Vlastuin's role he'd play Broad's and Broad would play Vlastuin's... :shh

Broad doesn't play key position either. He plays on the opposition's linking forward utility who plays high across F50 and leads up to the wing (eg: Adelaide's Tom Lynch who could be back this week from the Crows). Garthwaite couldn't run all day with a Lynch-type. As Dimma said, Garthwaite is an Astbury clone. The only reason you would bring Garthwaite in this week is to play on Fogarty but then Grimes would need play Vlastuin's role. We'd become too top heavy in defence with 3 key defenders.
Title: Re: Changes for the Crows game?
Post by: Diocletian on July 02, 2018, 05:45:28 PM
Too much height shouldn't be an issue against Adelaide, also think you may be confusing Astbury & Garthwaite with Will Thursfield. :shh
Title: Re: Changes for the Crows game?
Post by: Tigeritis™©® on July 02, 2018, 05:51:09 PM
Bolton in on a Wing - changing with Rioli up forward.

C. Ellis in to play Conca role or defensive/mid.

B. Ellis to play Vlaustin role. I don’t think they’ll bring in Garthwaite.

We don’t want to be too tall as the rains are comin’! 
Title: Re: Changes for the Crows game?
Post by: Diocletian on July 02, 2018, 05:59:00 PM
He might well be but somehow I can't see CEllis being picked again unless we cop a whole stack of injuries. :shh

We're not a tall side as it is - one extra won't make us top heavy,  remember they won't have Betts..... :shh :shh

In the Mix - Round 16

Jennifer Phelan
afl.com.au
3 July 2018


Get them in: Corey Ellis has been building solid VFL form over three weeks and deserves a run at AFL level. Connor Menadue was also among the best while Sam Lloyd had 23 disposals and Shai Bolton impressed.

Under the pump: They're going to lose two with Nick Vlastuin suspended for a week and Reece Conca to sit out until the latter rounds with a dislocated ankle, so changes outside of those are unlikely.

Medical room: Conca escaped surgery but will wear a moon boot for two weeks. He remains in good spirits and the Tigers believe he'll play before finals. Bachar Houli isn't available as his return from a groin injury extends out to five weeks, but Trent Cotchin is expected to be fine despite playing out the win over Sydney with a sore knee. Anthony Miles will miss after being concussed in the VFL while Nathan Drummond is out with another hamstring. Jacob Townsend is also unavailable because of a one-game VFL suspension.

Verdict:
Corey Ellis or Menadue for Conca. Ryan Garthwaite would be an interesting replacement for Vlastuin given the Crows' bevy of talls and the chance of Tom Lynch returning. Or, if Jack Higgins plays more midfield minutes with Conca out, the door could open for Shai Bolton or Tyson Stengle to re-stock the firepower.

Two forced changes for Tigers

Reece Conca’s dislocated ankle has forced him to the sidelines for some time while Nick Vlastuin will miss a week with suspension.
It looks as though Corey Ellis could replace Conca after some strong VFL form while Connor Menadue is also a chance.
Impressive debutant from the Geelong win, Ryan Garthwaite, may return as Vlastuin’s replacement while Shai Bolton, Sam Lloyd and Callum Moore will also be considered.
