You cannot set standards if the seniors are not going to be measured and replaced on the back of their OWN performances.
What would you rather have:
1. You keep players in the seconds and they ONLY get a chance due to injuries, horrendous ongoing performances by a non leader player, where finals are a no chance, or its their first-ever senior game.
2. You make the SENIORS accountable by setting benchmarking standards with the coach and leadership group. If they are not met, you're dropped. Dead simple. As a result he spends time in the seconds..probably hell bent to get back in, and a seconds player is brought in hell bent to play a blinder and staying in the seniors. Standard set. Rinse and repeat.
Keeping option 1 going is one of the reasons we have no depth and our kids have no real experience. We bring em in expecting miracles and when the season is over and we never learn. In the meantime big teams blood youngsters as part of a strategy.
What I want him to do is demonstrate that he is too good for VFL football. He is rarely in the best players for Northern.

While I agree with you in part, there is a bigger picture of how often is the ball getting to him ? Is he leading to the preferred areas ? Is he playing the %'s and doing the team things ?

We need more run and flexibility. Collingwood run and run and run. They put pressure on the ball carrier then spread quickly when the opposition turn it over.
I hope we drop a tall for another runner - I'd like to see Judd, Whiley, Graham and maybe Jaksch in.
Outs - Dick, Carazzo (slow and possibly injured - could get cut up when doesn't have the ball), Ellard (doesn't run through the mid-field) and maybe Jones/Casboult.
The end result is 3 x genuine midfielders in for a forward pocket, hbf and slow mid-fielder; Also swap a mobile big for an erratic forward.
Jaksch can start forward and go back when Rowe pinch hits in the ruck.
I'd like to see the more mobile Walker forward with Hendo and either Caz or Jones.
The taller onballers like Everitt, Judd and Cripps resting forward is also a nice option.
I'm hoping that we don't play too many taggers:
Everitt is a great match up for Pendlebury which leaves Curnow for Seedsman

Just run and gun FFS.

Re: Round 5 preview Carlton v Collingwood - Professer E - 04-28-2015
My two cents on Watson.
Rowe is playing in an excremental fashion right now - we all know that. However, he is the only large bodied defender we have on the list right, so we really do have to persist with him. Watson has been tried as a KP defender previously and it simply didn't work.
If Watson is going to get a gig it needs to be as a high half forward leading up to the ball and giving the mids something to kick to. For Watson to play we have to drop Jones... we simply can't play both.

I'm not sure you can let Swann have a day out and expect to win.

I'm not big on tagging and only like one or two negative players on my team but Pendlebury and Swan are the two
I would tag...

Agreed, tagging is a double edged sword, for example some "scribes" are saying that Freo's attacking upside is primarily due to Crowley's absence!
Re: Round 5 preview Carlton v Collingwood - shadesy - 04-28-2015
apparently Collingwood turn it over more than us.
If we are willing to push back and defend hard and play with some freedom up the guts, we are a big show.
Sadly we will get cut up on rebound after multiple repeat inside 50's.
