If you're talking about Acres, there's a lot of players in the same boat.BigMart wrote:He is poor with ball in hand, must improve this part of his game.

Re: Changes for Pies match
Well that means he's a certainty to go. 33 touches against PA last year didn't spare him. I'm sure he made some insignificant mistake they could drop him for. Just to teach him a lesson, of course. I swear I saw him look away from a stoppage at one stage. He'll need to go back to Sandy to learn not to do that.longtimesaint wrote:Acres wont be dropped -showed some good signs yesterday.Griggsy wrote:Pleases me no one has dropped acres for armo.

Re: Changes for Pies match
Surely if fit McCartin stays in. After many interruptions I would like to see him get a solid go at it. Ridiculous to drop him after 2 games.

Re: Changes for Pies match
I would love to see Sinclair selected.
He is player who has plenty of class if he is given the chance to show it.

Re: Changes for Pies match
Yes, I agree. Thought he was pretty good against the Weegirls and yesterday just had one of those games that happen to all key forwards, even the best of them. They used to call it "well held"The Barometer wrote:Surely if fit McCartin stays in. After many interruptions I would like to see him get a solid go at it. Ridiculous to drop him after 2 games.

Re: Changes for Pies match
In: Steven, Long and armo
Out: Lonie - can't kick 40 metres and is a non factor in the air.. Tackling only ok.. Reminds me of Blair from pies.. Just not good enough
Billings - not good enough.. Needs to go back and work hard
Last one not sure..
Think we keep persisting with Mccartin, needs games

Re: Changes for Pies match
Plus one, ms. Sinclair is an upgrade on Lonie ATM. Clever and a good kick. Steven and Armo automatics if fit. Love to see Long and McKenzie get a chance, because they have what we need, but they'll spend more time at Sandy. I think the Savage experiment should continue at Sandy.mightysainters wrote:In: Steven, Long and armo

One more goal and he matches Seb Ross's grand tally of 3 last year.Con Gorozidis wrote:Averaging 17 @ 73.5% and a goal a game this year from 65% TOG.BigMart wrote:He is poor with ball in hand, must improve this part of his game.

Acres definitely needs continuity, but he also looks like a player that needs to know the coach has faith in him as well.
He is a very reliable set shot for goal, he just needs to carry that confidence through to his field kicking and he'll develop into a very,very good player.
