Who will be omitted

Couldnt get to the game tonight because I was otherwise occupied but obviously at least one has to be omitted for Kosi plus of course Goose. Who will it be?

The Fireman · Sun 26 Jul 2009 12:53am

Is being Omiotted a painful procedure?

Love the Goose but he is obviously going to struggle to get back in and if he does will he be able to hold his spot.

I'm praying that none of our guys are omiotted.

Big night for me. I really meant to ommmittted.

I reckon they'll play him in the Melbourne game

Is that based on what you know will happen in the next 5 weeks.

You shouldn't have changed it Plugger. Omiotted was more entertaining.

felixleo · Post: # 782236Post **felixleo** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:00am

On omiottions, Can we have Max Zack and Blake in the side at the same time. Opinions only please and not a bagfest.

Totally agree. Dangerous against the only side that can beat us and that is the Cats. Blake will play so it must be out of Zac and Max IMO.

SaintWodonga · Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:05am

Plugger what about MG?

Missed him obviously Ben goes even if he was good tonight.

Enrico_Misso · Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:08am

Gee the selectors have some tough calls to make.

Whilst that will be painful and controversial, it is so much better than the old days when the problem was trying to find someone to fill a gaping hole.

felixleo · Post: # 782259Post **felixleo** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:08am

IMO there would be a riot if a fit Max was left out for Zack. Having said that Zack has done everything right and nothing wrong.

st.byron · Post: # 782272Post **st.byron** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:13am

How good is it that we have Zac, Gardy, Kosi and Bally to come back in.
Gardy for Ben obviously, Bally for Eddy if he's fit or doing what he's asked, whichever is the real issue. Kosi for Jimmy.
Max and Zac is atough one isn't it. Glad I'm not a selector.
Leaves himself wide open.

jonesy · Post: # 782287Post **jonesy** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 1:20am

Think I like Geary over Eddy.

Eddy gives his all,but lacks composure and confidence with the ball. Geary backs himself to snag a goal,whilst Eddy is poor at finishing. Come finals we need to minimise poor ball use and capitalise on everything inside 50.

This is where our biggest improvement can come still.

Bernard Shakey · Sun 26 Jul 2009 2:06am

Kosi will be back next week if his hand is ok.

Gardy when he's ready.

I'm looking forward to seeing Bally this afternoon at Sandy.

I don't thing there will be many changes, as usual.

Saint Bev · Post: # 782381Post **Saint Bev** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 4:17am

Raph for Zac, not rocket science and pls don't tell me either one is better than Max.

Macau Saint · Sun 26 Jul 2009 5:40am

Agree with jonesy. Not sure we have the full story on Ball, but he's a moral in our best 22, he sets a tempo

TimPekin'sDirtyGuernsey · Sun 26 Jul 2009 9:06am

What a fantastic dilemma to have by the way.

Sitting there watching last night, to me it almost feels as if players are going hell-for-leather because they know that if they don't perform to a satisfactory level that they could be dropped.

It's great stuff!

Kosi mentioned after the game that he would have been right to play tonight with a jab if he hadn't been a "naughty boy".

You may be right, but it is a question of balance. Raph is most effective running from half back whereas the other two are sweepers. As others have said, the selection panel (Ross) has got it right so far.

Add to that plugger wants Goose in ( sad to say it wont happen ) and i agree we are way to big as plugger said re playing geelong , I think selections are going to be on a week by week basis depending on who we are playing , The hawks are really the only other side ( that can beat us ) that has two big forwards , even Geelong only have one now that they are using Hawkins in the ruck , thats one reason why if we were to play them in the final i would play Big Mac in the ruck up against Hawkins .

As for who plays out of Max Zac or Blake , id say the only certain starter is Blake

borderbarry · Sun 26 Jul 2009 11:15am

I would have thought that Dempster was in line to be first dropped after last night. He proved he is no forward. And I cant see anyone making way for him on the defence.

SaintBot · Post: # 782479Post **SaintBot** » Sun 26 Jul 2009 11:18am

These are the changes that will probably be made in the remaining rounds prior to finals:

In: J.Koschitzke, M.Gardiner, L.Ball, Z.Dawson
Out: J.Gwilt, B.McEvoy, R.Eddy, R.Clarke

With Dempster going into the back into the backline in Raph's roll as another rebounding defender.
