Out:Fasolo, Mayne (15 metres gained, 15!)
In:McLarty, Sier
Varcoe (8 disposals, 5 tackles, 0 goals) and Cox (9 disposals, 2 marks, 0 goals) have had 2 quiet weeks and need to do more.
The pass mark for both is lower than afforded to others like a Blair or the former player White IMO. _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

The Bulldogs game is a must win. We need to be in the 8 this time next week, and stay there for the remainder of the season.
One thing we'll have to improve on is our centre bounce clearances. Despite smashing the Saints in hitouts, we were beaten in this crucial area 15-10. That's simply not good enough.
Currently, we only have one good big man - Grundy, the All Australian ruckman.
While I'd like to see Wills or Sier come into the side to replace Fas, I suspect it will be Reid.
The smoky selection might be Murphy to replace Appleby. |

Greenwood was OK in the VFL yesterday, playing in defence, but Murphy was outstanding. |

^ Yeah, but experience means a lot. And we need more grunt in the centre clearances. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

This bloke is a burden. He can't even handball, I saw him miss the ball altogether in at least 4 of his attempts. Saints 1st 2 goals were assists by Mayne.
Anyone who thinks this bloke is AFL level is kidding themselves. _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

Will Reid or Maynard be fit?
Out: Appleby, Fasolo, Mayne (won't happen)
In: Reid, Maynard, Sier
I am not confident. Our form has dropped off gradually since the end of the Richmond game to the point we are almost playing like the worst of 2017. _________________ Magpies love pies(Lol) |

Cox to stay.
Brings the ball to ground everytime.
Always has 2 or 3 on him so other players are free.
Wasn't bad on the ground last night.
Yes, he needs to hold those marks.
One day he will. |

Reid should be ok by Friday night. Cox had a dirty night against St Kilda but needs to stay in the side. Appleby and Murray are experiencing flat spots which you would expect in their first seasons. Bontempelli is the one we need to contain to beat the Bulldogs. Easy selections for me:
In: Reid, Sier

I was at the VFL yesterday in Coburg.
I’m a tall guy, so I thought, until I stood next to Sier in the social club post match...he is freakin’ HUGE. Like ridiculously big.
After another 30+ disposal game, he’ll come in sooner rather than later. It’s all about fitness. He’s still, what, only 20? Now that he has miles into his legs after a few years of training, he can obviously run out games now, which is why so many youngsters struggle in this now endurance-dominated sport. Add the constant battering from an opponent and it’s little wonder young bodies struggle with the modern senior game. Post game interview on Channel 7 also shows he has a good head on his shoulder.
Hine May just win this one yet. _________________ Est. 2002 |
