Changes for the Bombers game?

[WilliamPowell]

INS: Petterd, Miles, Arnott,

OUTS: Jackson (inj), McDonough, Thomas or Ellis

Maric needs another week, huge step up from VFL to AFL needs more match fitness

McDonough is probably a tough call but what stood out yesterday is in the clinches he decision making is very slow. Great example was right in front of us and he stood back believing the ball was going out of bounds, it didn't and it was until his opponent ran past him he decided to go after the ball. It didn't look good, it wasn't good = poor decision, slow decision

Thomas, well just butchers the ball and puts his teammates under ridiculous pressure with his poor disposal. Said it before will say it Gaian he must play to his obvious limitations

As for Ellis, don't let the 25+ possessions fool you! Yet again stood back off contests, refused to chase, and chimes on the with those little "dinky" nothing kicks.

Neither Ellis or Thomas will be dropped because they are favourites but I can dream can't I?

Im so happy that you see what I see regarding Ellis.
I disagree on Thomas in terms of I love the way he plays, we are so timid as I side and have been for way to long. He puts his head over it and that's ok by me. I didn't notice his disposal yesterday which usually means it was ok.
I'll buy another membership if they drop Ellis and bring in Miles. Miles didn't rack up 30 yesterday but was still in the best players. Sometimes stats are misleading!

Haha you want Petterd in the side

[Judge Roughneck]

Yeah he's a faster thinker unlike donuts 

[Jackstar is back!!!]

Reckon Petterd is a certainty to play next week

More fool those that would drop Thomas, he was clearly amongst best 3 on the ground , instrumental with his contested ball dominance , arnot needs more than 12 possies in the vfl to knock thomo from the side

Better than Jack, Lids, Dusty, Rance, Conca, Hampson,Houli.

Yep clearly amongst the best 3 at 74% efficiency.

I may be seen as a perfectionist but I'll take quality over quantity any day of the week. Whoa.

Exactly

Reckon they might drop McDonough back next week for Petterd
If Ivan plays .Vickery or Griffiths one has to go

from what I been told the Donut was poor yesterday which is disappointing.

Poor?
He wasn't poor at all. Made a couple of errors but also took the game on and set up a few plays. Wasn't our worst. Kicked his first goal for us too. Backmen kicking goals is a bonus.

I didnt see the game I took your advice and decided to do other things so I could keep my blood pressure at reasonable levels 

[RedanTiger]

In: Maric, Petterd, Arnot
Out: Griffith, Jackson, Foley

While it's not what I would do, the coaching panel will drop Foley since he was only the sub and Arnot can do that. Maric is still not fit enough so they will bring him in early and drop a ruck and so Griffith must go as he's not a possible key forward like Vickery. Griffith can also pinch hit in defence if we have an injury so he's got to go. Jackson is doubtful and may well play half-fit but if not then the reliable Petterd comes in to give his usual qualities.

You are a wise man Ramps. When Coniglio kicked their first to level the scores,  your BP may have hit 250 systolic!

[MADTIGER2010]

Foolish to want McDonough, foley, Griffiths and Vickery out
Foolish to want Petterd in
5 moronic calls after yesterday. They all played well and all vital members of the team

[Mr Magic]

Wouldn't make too many changes.
Perhaps Jacko for Miles (if injured) and that's about it.

At last someone who makes sense.
