Next Week Changes?

[stinger]

to the dumpster with dempster. how does this guy keep bobbing back up into the firsts?

Because usually he gives much more honest efforts than that.

And because Ross likes his style and his effort- harks back to the Sydney days.

he can't kick

thank you, stinger. he just doesn't cut the mustard. chances are we would not make the top 22 of any afl team.

it is time for ross to stick a fork in him. he is done!

[Solar]

mini is in trouble

zac is in trouble

kosi is treading water. Patto gives us nothing when the ball is not going our way.

Our rucks were terrible.

IMO changes

macca and dal in

dawson and patto out

[widereceiver]

IN: the attack on the ball and the man that won us 12/16 games thus far.
OUT: the whingeing princesses on this forum.

[S.A Saint]

few players need a kick up the arse this week that have been struggling all season

[S.A Saint]

OUT: the whingeing princesses on this forum.

id go with

Outs: mini (has had a pretty average season to date and nowhere near last seasons form) Dempster (doesnt cut it im afraid)

borderline are geary pattison and peake

Ins: dal and armo (give him a go at mini role dont think he can do any worse)

ohh and please ross never play gwilt in the forward line again leave him down back were he belong ffs

[cwrcyn]

If Gwilt goes back to defense, then Dempster surely must go.

Dal Santo is obvious, but do we chop a couple like McQualter and Kosi and go with the likes of Smith and Stanley?

With Riewoldt not anywhere near true match fitness, Stanley's speed and mobility could be useful. McQualter has been pretty quiet for some time, so this might be an opportunity to give someone else a go who has a bit more leg speed.

Could there also be a surprise with Gardiner given a rest and McEvoy and Pattison shring the ruck? That would be interesting.

[Eastern]

Do we bring Raph straight in after 4-5 weeks on the sidelines?

DalSanto will come straight back in.

There could be plenty of discussion on Kosi V Benny

One thing that is for sure is that the guys in the VFL tomorrow have the perfect opportunity to shove their names under the coaches/selectors noses !!

Given it more thought and think:

In: Dal Santo, Armitage*
Out: McQualter, Dempster

* Depending on how he goes tomorrow

Kosi for Big Mac must surely be considered as well

[SainterK]

In Dal, Ben
Out Dempster, Patto

Must settle the side for September.

[Con Gorozidis]

Who would leave out and bring in?

Out for me dempster, mini, patterson , kosi

in: dal, armo, big mac /king , Stanley

thoughts?

i actually thought patto was one of our better players.
but mini had a shocker. and dempster? why does he even exist?

[saint patrick]

In: Dal Santo,McEnvoy,Armitage

Out:Dempster,Pattison,Peake.

Kosi and Macqualter would need big games next week

[borderbarry]

Why on earth would you drop Steven? Had limited game time and was still our most dangerous player. Only multiple goal kicker.

[borderbarry]

For mine....
Out... Dempster... Too slow.
McQualter. Only ten touches. Has been poor all year.
Kosi,, if there was someone who could do a better job, but I cant see anyone.

In.....Dal Santo
Is Raph ready yet? If not Armo is he has a good one today.

[plugger66]

At the moment the only change in could be Dal if fit which suggests Dempster is out. If ben does well today he will play so either Pattison or Kosi goes out. No other player is much of a chance at this stage unless they are great for Sandy today.

[matrix]

next week id give mini a tagging role
ive been disappointed with him for a few weeks, does some good stuff but not consistent.
dal in for dempster

[35...LEGEND]

I think Ross is getting a fair idea of what his ideal FINALS team will be.

Just tinkering in the lead up IMO.

Although yesterday may have been the last straw for a couple,and a few on notice this week.

Still a month and a half before the real stuff kicks in....the tinkering will continue with minimal changes IMO.

Maybe a rest for Len,Monty,Fish,Gilbo,Ray Ray,Schnads over the next few weeks.

The others left scrambling for spots in a team that can go all the way.

Top 4 is the aim now(i wanted top) with the Guns ready to explode come Sept.

In Ross and co. I trust.

Carn SAINTERS.

[Sobraz]

Dempster is a dud... always has been, always will be... Adds nothing, must be dropped...

His constant selection is the one thing that never allows me to have 100% faith in RL...

He just isnt up to it, yet his inclusion in last years GF, and his fast-tracking into the team this year after being MIA for 3 months is bizarre... What do they see in him??

So he must go, Dal in..

McEvoy must come in... He was playing quite well, and got dropped.. If this was for a rest, then fair enough, but I dont see the point in giving him a week off for the sake of it... He needs footy, and alot of it to improve, as he was... A week off or in the 2's may well set him back a month...

Clearly, MG and BigMac must be our ruck combo for the rest of the year...

King will hopefully never play again... If he is called upon, injuries aside, we will be going the wrong way...

Steven must stay in, in the short term atleast... He has done enough in every game he's played to show he has a real x-factor about him that can cut it at the top level...

Raph must come in also, for his run and risk taking from defence... That'll take abit of pressure off Gilb, Chips and Jimmy to be the creative ones... Raph is also very good at peeling off and helping out 3rd man up... Very brave also...

Kosi is a worry, and it takes a lot for me to say that.... But Patto is not the answer.... Stanley might be...

[cwrcyn]

Out: Kosi

In: Spongebob Square-pants






.

[quidnunc]

Kosi won't be dropped because there is a more than even chance he won't play any better for the Zebras. Then how the hell could they promote hin to the seniors?

[borderbarry]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Out: Kosi

In: Spongebob Square-pants

Sorry, he is not on our list, although I thought Patrick may have been out there yesterday.

[saintbob]

OUT:Dawson,Pattison,McQualter and Peake

INS:Dal Santo, Clarke, A.Smith(Dribbler),McEvoy

[cwrcyn]

Spongebob would at least be able to soak up the pressure.






.

[saintspremiers]

OUT:Dawson,Pattison,McQualter and Peake

INS:Dal Santo, Clarke, A.Smith(Dribbler),McEvoy

complete overreaction to make 4 changes.

The only certainty if fit is Dal.

Clarke should be given a run in the magoos to regain match fitness.

I wish they had given Grammy a run in the magoos.....he looks very rusty at the moment.

[Beno88]

In : Bringing injured players back through the VFL.
Out : Rushing players back in who clearly aren't up to it just yet.

Changes vs the Hawks.

In : Dal Santo, McEvoy, Lynch
Out : Dempster, Koschitzke, McQualter

Kosi and McQualter need to find some form and they've had plenty of chances to find it at AFL level.
