Agreed Mav....I don't get to see much of the VFL action at all from over here so can only go on match reports and other comments. Point I guess was really we might need to mix it up a bit because apart from patches in games, we haven't looked that great.
Membrey has torched us a few times in the past and for a bloke who's actually not all that tall, he's very good overhead and I agree, neither Weitering or Young would be ideal match ups. Maybe McGovern goes to him or Kemp as suggested.
I can't remember who the Saints have been playing as second ruckmen but wonder if this is the week to go with just one....Pitto?
I wasn't suggesting Binns comes straight in this week but keen to see him get a gig soon. Hollands surprised us straight off the bat.
Yes we'll miss Saad. But Sinclair for them plays a similar role and from memory, was also AA last year? He plays as an attacking/rebounding half back who gets plenty of the ball.....have we learned anything from last week and maybe send someone to him like Adelaide did with Keays on Saad?
By sheer lack of small/medium defenders, Plowman probably gets a crack again this week.
We need big games from the likes of Acres and our midfield. Remember, Cripps had nearly a dozen goals on the board after round 5 last year but has hardly impacted this year.
