I see it but I don't belieeeeeve it :o lol.
Surprised also that Whitey and Howat are in ahead of Polo and Jack.
Meyer is named in the starting 18 so he is definitely in. I would reckon that means Petts is out also as WP said in another thread.

geelong move teh ball pretty fast , esp at the dome, so i think thats why white is in over polo, as he has the pace and stamina
petts i agree but something tells me he will be saved, lets hope as wp said, he will be dropped.
jack will have his turn soon
i wonder if moore will get in too.
-
wil jon play on the ball?
i hope so, he will be a hard match up cos of his height and pace, and teh cats will have no idea how to play him, not even we know what he is like as an onballer!
i like it though

Plough's probably playing funny buggers naming JON there. He usually plays across HB and runs forward a la last week. You may be right X about bringing White in for the Dome but we just can't leave it to Foley to do all the bash and crash inside work especially if Tuck is dropped as well.
The named spine is a look to our future - McGaune, Polak, Lids, Hughes and Schulz.
-
C: Deledio
Out: Tivendale
Looks like all the :pray has paid off :thumbsup
-
Also suprised that Polos not back in.
Has he done something wrong or is he just being given an extended run in the 2's

If Polo plays a few blinders in a row for Coburg then he'll be back.

I'll probably regret saying this by Sunday night but they are 3 of the better umps IMO. At least we didn't get any of the clowns from last week.

the only good umpires i have ever seen are dead umpires!

Int (from): Tuck, Pettifer, M White, Edwards, Hyde, Howat, Moore
So which 4 of the 7 do you ppls think will survive the chop?

I think Tuck, Pettifer, Edwards and Hyde
I hope Edwards, Hyde, Whitey and Moore
-
Just hope that Edwards stays in and Tuck gets dropped :pray
-
don't like howat.....not liking it that he's now back on the radar...
he's just so soft......dun win any contested possesions at all.....
whitey should certainly get the nod before him...
i think moore ought to be in as well....
-
The 4 I'd keep in are:
Edwards, Moore, White and only just Tuck
Gotta keep the kids in I say so Edwards and White should be a given
-
I'll say it, Tivendale is unlucky to be dropped!
Yes, his decision making and kicking have dropped in the last two weeks, perhaps they are making an example of that, but there have been worse offenders, Tuck, Bowden up until last week, Bowden had 3 very average games why didn't he get dropped, I hope now that they are setting that as a standard and keeping to it!
WP, no room for Hyde in your side?
-
Int: Edwards, Hyde, Moore, Tuck.
Tuck very lucky but I think he might be kept in just for his size in close otherwise it'll be all left to Foley.
Moore in as a extra option down back with Geelong having a tall forward line.
I'll say it, Tivendale is unlucky to be dropped!
Agree DC compared to others who have been out of form all year - Tuck's effective kicking has been only around 50% :help and Petts has done nothing for 4 weeks. I think Tivs being in his late 20's has something to do with it. He's not going to improve any further.

disagree, tivs should have beebn dropped 1.5 yrs ago, its been along time coming and he is not a team player and does not do the team things. forget his pathetic disposal, its all other areas of the game he is letting us down also.
he has no positive influence on our team at all!
now joel, he may make the mistake here and therel, but his upside is way bigger than his down side and at least he still has postive influence over the team
i hope we do not see tiv again, i hope we start playing 4 quarters and start getting wins on the board and the kids play well ensuring tiv will fade away in coburg
tuck should be next and he and petts may still be dropped
i have been very hard on tuck cos he ios carrying that ankle , but if thats the case , he should not be out there

You have to be joking. Bowden? Bowden's been playing both key position and rebounding defender and doing a great job. Terry's asked too much of him but he still comes up with the goods. He is our smartest and classiest player and with Brown out he is our only A class player.
-
Agree that he is our only A grader Harry, can't agree about the form though.
The West Coast game was the first time he has had more than 20 possessions this season.
He had only 28 kicks in total after 3 rounds, not good enough for a rebounding defender, regardless of whether your minding a tall. My guess would be that Bowden wouldn't have been that happy with himself after Rnd 3. Actually last time Bowden was dropped it worked wonders for him....
I don't think anyone should be exempt from this, A graders, leadership group, whatever. Set a standard and stick to it! Richo has made more clangers than Tivendale this year maybe he should go...

True Harry Joel is our classiest player out there at the moment but he still outsmarts himself at times as that pass in the second quarter straight to an Eagle on 50 which costed us a goal illustrated. If he cut that out of his game then I would call him A-grade.

As mentioned in the training thread Jack trained with the squad today :thumbsup

Geelong:
In: Ottens, S. Johnson, Tenace
Out: King, Prismall, Stokes (all omit)
-

unfortunately no Dallas - his constantly wanting ot take on the opposition insteand of taking the first option has been costly the last 2 games. Also if you want talk about poor disposal ...
-
Kayne survives again! Sure Edwards didn't get much of it but at least his possessions are constructive and opens the play up in the midfield. Petts has the talent too but he needs a kick up the backside after 4 straight ordinary games.
Happy with the inclusions though.
-
still dont know why edwards is droped and white is in
im not sold on white, he may have pace but so does edwards and edwards at least has better disposal
i have not seen white play this yr at coburg, but i hope his disposal has improved and his decision, if not, he will become my new whipping boy
-
Edwards will get back in afew weeks...hes just a kid still ... itll give another senior player the chance to show Wallace there not up to it.

You have 'gotten' that right Harry
-

A couple must be on their last chance. Tuck (poor disposal) and Petts (lack of contesting) are very lucky to still be in the side.
-
Moore, Meyer, White: IN
Gaspar, Edwards, Tivendale: OUT ...
1st: why is moore there, he isn't good ! hurry up thursfield
2nd: good to see meyer
3rd: good stuff that gaspar is no more ...
4th: edwards is unlucky ! ... he hardly got match-time last week !
5th: about time with tivendale ... he needs to step back ...
i would be very happy/interested if the line up we have now will happen !
-

im not sold on white, he may have pace but so does edwards and edwards at least has better disposal
Given we want and need to beat Geelong with pace I still don't get this decision. The only thign I can think of is perhaps we think Geelong have the bigger bodies and at this stage Whitey will be able to handle this better than Edwards and not get pushed off the ball ???.

my prediction is white will be our turnover king with tuck today and both will be dropped next week
waste of time white, edwards showed more in his limited onfield time than white ever will.
and i dont care that white barracked for us as a kid, so did sugar, enough said
-
Apparently Howat is in for Tuck.

Would prefer Edwards, more upside and potential but played for the ressies

Actually, I would like to take that post back, Bowden is not an A grader, his mistakes tonight reminded me why, his first 5 touches in the 3rd quarter were all clangers, let Mooney get around him way too easily, didn't show any dash and wouldn't put his body on the line. That is 4 bad games out of 7 now, he should be dropped, we are setting a standard at Richmond aren't we, he is no different to anyone else in the Krak/Gas/Tiv/Tuck basket.
To those that say we will miss him as a 'rebounding defender' well, lets face it, the other name for that is the 'cheap kicks on the half back line' role and we should pass that on to someone creative and skillful, such as Deledio, seeing that TW wants to persist with him in the backline, or try someone like Danny Meyer there, give him a chance to utilise his skill, kicking, instead of him looking like a lost sheep in the forward pocket.

On Joel,
I think he is a good footballer.
His problem is that he cant help himself and has a need to try and do fancy things with the footy.
He is a beautiful kick of the footy when he is switched on, but he has mental breakdowns where he tries to look to fancy and try low % things. That is his biggest let down.
If he took the first option 95% of the time and didnt try to do too much he would be a much better footballer.
Last week against West Coast he gathered a contested ball twice as he ran into a pack. Both times he turned his back to the back to reduce impact and handballed over his head. Both turnovers.
This is the type of thing that lets his game down.
