Going by that game and lets face it while we actually won, problems that have been there all year were still there.
Im sort of asking myself what would the reaction have been if we had lost?. Imo we did our best again to lose and most of it as people here say is thru basics.
Yep going by that game Young, Mansell, Graham, Ralphsmith, Have to be in trouble along with the sub in Cumberland.
Looking at the Dockers well there is no Darcy do we take the opportunity to rest Nankervis and play Ryan and Nyuon as the ruckmen.
Reckon people are greatly underestimating what Nankervis brings after the ruck contest but if they go with just Jackson he is the type who has given him the most trouble over the years imo.
If Darcy was fit you would pick Nankervis in a heart beat.
Still want us to change the fwd half structure and play the extra tall. For me that would be Bauer. So it would go Jack, Bauer, and one of Ryan or Nyuon resting there.
If they go with just Luke Jackson i think Biggie may be a good fit to play on him with his defensive background and athleticism. The worry is Biggies lack of aggression. With the two ruck fwds Jackson will hopefully have to be accountable and wont get many opprtunities to go fwd himself.
Tylar Young well i dont wan't to be harsh but he looks out of his depth. Miller to become a defender again would imo be a better option.
Sonsie well we are missing a trick not playing him. Has been good in the ressies from what i can see.
Graham Mansell and Ralphsmith were rubbish if we are going to make a few changes they are the ones who need to be looked at.
Cumberland has to be in trouble as well came on as a sub and spent just as much time on the bench as he did on field.
Vlastuin will probably come back in, but the dockers have three nippy small fwds just a bit worried about his match up. Would like to see Banks get a game as he too has been solid in the magoos. Trouble is how many changes can ya make.
They may be a ruck kp down for this game but they still have good structure and the rest of their team has height with 5 mids flankers at 190cm plus and three others who are 188 189cm.As it is they may well pick a young ruckman to give Jackson a decent chop out and allow him to go forward.
Gunna be interesting to see what we do.
Oh its been peeing down cats and dogs over here if it stays wet that will change things a bit.
