Changes for the Giants game?
« on: May 17, 2014, 07:23:56 PM »
Astbury obviously out.

Cotchin very doubtful as apparently he shouldn't have played on after quarter time with an ankle injury and by the end of the game he couldn't run  :P.

Fire away ... ?

I'll have a go

Grigg- Promote Miles no ifs or buts
Astbury- Give Elton a go
Ellis- give Helbig a go Ellis has been in our bottom 3 this year
Houli- Pettard

Chaplin lucky to stay in due to Astbury getting injured.
4 year contract for this kouratha. Plop Plop Plop.

Outs: Vickery, Hampson, Grigg, Houli, Astbury (inj), Cotch (inj). Min. you can probably add McDonough, Foley, Ellis. and more.

Ins: Miles, Elton....maybe Banfield....i dunno its a sad sad state of affairs.

I thought Foley was ok in terms of what our other players produced. Tried to run hard he needs a couple of games to get up to speed.

Assuming there's no rookie upgrades. (otherwise Elevate Darrou if Astbury's an LTI):

Grigg, Houli, Vickery, Hamspud, Chaplin, Astbury(inj)

Arnot, Petterd (RFC BOG in the VFL today), Elton, Stephenson, Grimes, Dea

stuff me what an embarrassment of riches we have....

Elton in for Vickery
Darrou in for Astbury if he gets promoted
Dea in for Chaplin
Miles in for Grigg if  he gets promoted
Helbig in for Houli

Elton can play down back if we are stretched for height.

Yep Vickery on the chopping block and Hampson.

How on earth did we win 15 games and have a 123% last year.

Giants will murder us in contested footy next week.

Started off on fire. For mine was weak afterwards. Finished the game with just 5 kicks.

Would rather Orren ruck than makes me Sickery.
If Sickery remains in the side based solely on him being a ruck then I'll take Orren any day of the week.

FFS promote Miles too. Put King on the LTIL and let Miles run amok against his old side.

Jake King is on the LTIL has been for 3 weeks now, they could have promoted Miles weeks ago
