Over the next two weeks we play probably the best two sides (being nudged strongly by Sydney and WC) so why not use this as an opportunity to play any young bloke you're wondering about to firstly see how he responds and secondly so he gets to experience first hand how the best go about it. Then perhaps rest any of our front line older blokes carrying a nasty niggle or two. Treat it as an education.
Specifically you'd play Whiley, Smith, Dick, Fields, Jaksch and Walsh... not sure if we're allowed to play Russell. Perhaps even Foster.
Give each of Murph, Jamison and Carrazzo a rest for one of those two games. Use these two upcoming games to expose, teach and to rest. Then for the remainder of the season set out to win. After these two upcoming games I believe we could win 4 or so games and finish around 14th and have a much better 2nd half to the year (perhaps even 5-6 from our second 11 games as opposed to 2-9 from our first 11). Or maybe I'm just bored and should get back to work! ;D
We need to start TANKING now. Don't discuss it in the media, or at the club...like NIKE... Just DO IT! I think we could win 3 more for the year, Collingwood, Melbourne and Brisbane. Let's tank the Brissy game. If we do, I've calculated we'll finish LAST. Might sound awful, but in reality it isn't. We get a gun tall forward (Pick 1) and Pick 19 which we could package up with Yarran/Henderson for another top tenner. All of a sudden, we're BACK.
