Re: Changes v Tigers
Weller out concussed now as well. So that is Brown and Weller gone and most likely armo.
Carlisle straight in and unfortunately Paddy (id play him in VFL), Maybe White or Logan for the third spot

Agreed, th ed one place he excels is the mcg. So he has to stay. Marshall can help in the ruck and Austin has to play.

Re: Changes v Tigers
When absent from the winter chills of Australia you peruse sites such as these for information otherwise unavailable thru mainstream media outlets including the St Kilda FC site
There are contributions you seek out starting with those if Saintbrat
There are others who pollute the site and make it a waste of time
What we see in every thread is the serial contributor "Stonecold" calling Tom Hickey kindergarten language names, telling anyone remotely interested that he/she played AFL football as a ruckperson and belittling and threatening anyone with a contrary view or who is critical of Longer, whose impact on any game of football is very limited as confirmed by statistics, statistics which at the very least have remained consistent across Longer's AFL career and are being replicated at VFL level
The sooner those who moderate this Forum give "Stonecold" the advice he/she affords to others the sooner the standard of this Forum will improve
One subject, one player time after time after time - and then the attacks, abuse and threats on those who disagree
It was said that Geoffrey Boycott went to bed with his crickey bat
This contributor obviously goes to bed with a blow up doll of Longer
A faunicated moron who obviously can not count to 99 and therefore does not change hands - hence the repetition we are subjected to

Re: Changes v Tigers
GT was a man ahead of his time!
McCartin Watch
Do we risk Paddy against the form of Rance?
& If we dont play McCartin this week - would we drag him all the way to WA where he will get absolutely mauled
So two weeks in the ressies? get a bit of form and let him run out against the swans at home?
to be honest I think we need to think along the lines AR did with collingwood - The tigers run very deep with on-ballers we wont be able to match them - but we need to select players that can or at least attempt to get the ball - and one additional runner would be handy. (sorry Paddy)

Don't be surprised if DMac gets back in soon too. He is playing well at Sandy.

Re: Changes v Tigers
I dont mind the changes at all. But I would shuffle the positions a little.
Geary Membrey Webster
White Austin Rice
Savage Dunstan Billings
Newnes McCartin Sinclair
Gresham Carlisle Lonie
Hickey Ross Steven
Clarke McKenzie Phillips Steele
Try Membrey on Riewoldt and ask Jake to relieve Hickey who rests at full forward. Logan can play intercept. Maybe Logan and Carlisle can rotate.
Get Paddy to lead up the middle and target Newnes and Sinclair over his head instead.
Dont let Lonie, Gresham/Clarke and Carlisle leave the 50 and get Billings and Savage to push deep into the flanks and pockets and kick goals.
Ross should run with Dusty and if he goes forward put White on him and push Savage back loose then rest Ross.
Rotate Steven with McKenzie Gresh and Clarke and rest Dunstan with Steele. The moment Dusty goes forward take Austin off and try Phillips as ruck rover. He is going to be a stoppage clearance king one day. He is neat and reads the play well, has courage, good awareness and quick hands. He can also play outside and has shown he can kick. He can run, there is no doubt there.
If Ross pussies out against Dusty put him on the bench and leave him there and get Dunstan to harass Dusty and throw Phillips in the middle.
Lets congest the s*** out the stoppages and gut run all day.
We mustn't be scared to rotate 7 or 8 guys through the midfield cause we need to develop depth.

Really like the positions. I would love to see Carlisle forward. Only talk player we have that can take a contested mark.

Re: Changes v Tigers
Has to be a Hickey/Longer argument unless you reckon we don't play a ruckman at all. Not sure how that helps!
As for who is better - well Hickey matches Longer at the centre bounces and runs rings around him around the ground.
As an example - how many marks did Billy take last week for Sandy - I saw one - it was a chest mark but at least that's an improvement!!.

However, Hickey has to be played because Billy is hardly showing the form or inclination to get back into the ones. He may be just that type of player who needs to be given a challenge.
If he is fit, I would be selecting him in the ones. I reckon he would respond, as he did last year.
