Changes for the Prelim final?
« on: September 06, 2018, 10:44:50 PM »
Fingers crossed we all got through tonight. Jack and Rance okay especially with a fortnight until the Prelim.

Fire away with your changes, if any?

Butler for Conca if he's fit.

Houli looked a bit underdone to me tonight.

Didn't like his game at all. Needs to be looked at.

What?

He was beaten clearly once tonight but more importantly is part of one of the stingiest defences our club has ever had. The total is much greater than the sum of the parts with our backline.

Hoili or Conca are on notice for the prelim.

someone has to go for butler you would think

With all due respect Jackstar- if you think Broad should be dropped you should stop drinking. Or start!
Let me guess, you want Bellis back 😂

Broad was not good tonight, depending on the match ups he should be looked at. Was horribly out marked by Nash dropped marks galore and just didn’t have any impact with 3 disposals.

Conca had 7 tackles and was second for pressure acts from memory which should keep him in the side.

If butler is fit I honestly don’t know who would drop out.

Castsgna or Conca :shh

Garthwaite in for Broad would be a big call for a prelim....and if nothing else Broad did keep Gunston fairly quiet , which as a defender is still his primary task after all.....though if the media whip up enough hysteria - and don't discount it - .he might have to come in for Rance instead.....  :help

...or maybe budding Rance clone Balta..... :shh :shh

Can't see there being any changes

Only possible is Butler... and think that would be based on who we play

Thought Houli was very poor last night

Houli was pathetic for a lot of the night. Absolutely dogged it in a few marking contests. One thing BEllis has the runs on the board for is going back with the flight when it's his turn. Houli turned it over by hand a good 4-5 times under a bit of pressure, Ellis has good hands in close.

So...be bold, treat Houli the same as others. Drop him, bring back the BEllis :shh

Broad is a passenger, let's be honest. He plays on blokes no one has ever heard of, does an average job and doesn't get a kick. Ducked his head horribly at one point too. Not the same player he was previously :shh

You guys watching the same game Broad took Gunston to the cleaners that was his job shut him down one of the best forwards who cares about the 3 possies.

Barely played on him mate. Gunston not going near the ball has bugger all to do with Broad

Has touched the ball 11 times in 3 games , lost his confidence
