OUT: C. Curnow, Fasolo, Garlett
IN: Kreuzer, Kennedy, Silvagni
Play both Kreuzer and Phillips and leave McKay as a permanent forward. Gibbons and Polson split the small forward role and let Fasolo find some form in the VFL. Feel like a broken record but Garlett is not a defender.
Weitering and SPS look to have really stepped up a bit this year and Walsh is probably in the best half dozen players in our team already.
Silvagni has had good form in the VFL and deserves another crack at it. Sydney are gettable this week but if we leave too much to too few again, the result will be the same.
Charlie curnow is in the top 5 for km's run every week. You'd be hard pressed to bring in a ruck to emulate what he does, even if it is Kreuzer (who is still unfit).
I think your changes make us incredibly slow.
OUT: 3 fast, agile players.
IN: 3 slow, relatively immobile players.
If we were to bring in Kreuzer (or casboult - please no) then i think McKay would need to play the Curnow role, basically CHF. Leave the resting ruck in the goal square.
Fas needs to go. Who to replace him?
Kennedy into the middle, Murphy forward?? Still makes us slower, but bigger bodies in the midfield will help against the swans.
I'd keep Garlett as he looks to be improving in the backline and getting his head around it. Offers sheer pace and skill that we lack in the side.
It won't happen, but i'd drop Ed and potentially bring in Jack.
Jack is a better forward, and can pinch hit in the middle.
Apparantly Marchbank isn't far away, We could use him.
Not an easy week to pick a side
