I've been pushing for Charlie to play on a wing, but i've had a re-think.
Charlie to CHB!
In a move that rejuvinated Waites career, moving him to CHB can give him a new lease of life.
Let him run in straight lines.
He will not be outrun and outmarked.
He will not be beaten on the ground.
It allows us to move Marchbank onto the 3rd tall, as he should, with Weitering taking #1 spot.
It also frees up our forwardline to have Harry (and Gov if he is fit) in more space there, with some more crumbers at their feet.....and a resting Cripps 1-out at FF, without being overly tall.
Personally, i'd drop Casboult for team balance to allow this to happen.
As for Teague as coach...
Knowing how he played, i think he'll reward effort. You don't have to be skillful or a high possession getter, you just have to do the team things.
As a result...
In: Polson.
Dropping Casboult for team balance by bringing in McGovern who has done nothing to support his $700k contract is really setting the wrong tone and doubt we are that stupid to do it. I would drop marchbank for balance if it’s needed, well before Casboult. He has been a steady rock in defence and one of the rare bright lights.
As for Polson, I watched the 2nds and he did what he always does, SFA. Hardly touches it runs around like a headless chook guarding space and shanks it every one of his 5-7 touches.
If we are serious the new coach will delist him at years end. Won’t make it. Need to move on and stop justifying running around in circles is enough to be promoted. I know we are the bottom team but he is that far below afl level it’s not funny.
