at this stage of the week i reckon we need to focus on the obvious.
its obvious to me we cannot go into games and expect to be at least competetive with so many runts in the team. runts in the main who lack the required polish so to speak. the small players we went with this week include. nason, webberley, white, king, nahas, farmer, cousins,edwards, and foley. to me king white nahas have to go. farmer will be suspended. cuz is really struggling but may be better for the run.
get the structure and size balance right and play as many skillful good kicks as possible with this in mind.
also we need to look at our rotation process concerning kids. we have a few who have had good blocks of games and are now struggling. time to send em back to coburg for confidence. in particular the one this applies to is vickery. drop him back and just add a like player in browne who can do with some exposure for a short stint or block of games.
atm i would be looking at something like this.
b; newman- thursfield - moore.
hb; deledio - mcguane - webberley.
c; cotchin - martin - edwards.
hf; nason - riewoldt - collins.
f; astbury - polak -
r; graham - tuck - foley
int; browne, polo, cuz, and either thomson a mid or a tall in post/rance.
outs would be. king, white, vickery farmer nahas.
ins would be browne, polak, polo, collins thomson.
