Jobe, I love you, but you look very heavy-legged and tired. Bird in for inside mid. Bellchambers looked cooked after 10 minutes. Worked into it in the 3rd a little but not good enough, especially given they didn’t have a specialist ruckman. Burger straight back in. Zaka and McKenna not impacting the game enough and skills/decision making very poor. Howlett not offering enough. Need the third tall and Stewart is just that. Very obvious we had no lead up targets today and were relying on contested marks or errors from them to get it forward. Hartley in to take the number one tall… Brown plays best on the third tall and we missed Ambrose today. McGrath into the midfield rotations.

Out: Watson (rested - cough, blush), Gleeson, McNiece, Zaharakis, Dea, Howlett, Brown
In: The next Nat Fyfe!, Stewart, Bird, Kelly, Francis, Hartley (or Ambrose if fit), Myers
I wouldn’t mind seeing Hartley getting a go too. He did nothing wrong to warrant being dropped. He’s solid af.

I actually thought zaka was one of our better players tonight, he stays for mine.
Watson surely needs to be rested ditto parish
Brown’s ankle looks pretty bad so he might be out and gleeson or mcniece out on form.
do u play two rucks? Might be worth a try against Sandi but id say we’re slow enough with 1 ruck let alone two.
Out- watson, brown, parish, gleeson
In- Myers, bird, hartley, kelly
Rested?
watson hasn’t hit a target all year.

Yeah has to come in now, Ambrose under a cloud and Brown now with an ankle injury.
Myers for Watson (rested and sent for a steak)
Stanton for Gleeson
Kelly for McNeice
Bird for Howlett
Not sure on Looney for Belcho both have their downside.

Reckon the club has a lot of sore, unfit and tired players that will have a bigger impact on selection than form.
Would like to see Myers, Hartley and Bird get a run. Guess Kelly, Francis and Looney come back. Maybe even Stants.
Kelly, Francis, Stewart, Myers, Bird, Hartley, Ambrose, Leuenberger all chances to come in
Probably Kelly, Myers the two most obvious
Don’t think we should drop McKenna and feel like Bellchambers showed good signs, cant ignore it was his first game for 600 days
Can’t we just forfeit?

Why the hell would you drop Gleeson and Zaka after today?
Both a long way from our worst.
And after last weeks display of utter lack lack of fitness to even play out half a game, why would you be breaking your neck to bring back Francis?

Zaharakis offered absolutely 0 as he has done for weeks

Is Ambrose a chance or injured still?
WTAF … Matty Dea was one of our best today!

Zaka and Gleeson have CONTINUALLY missed kicks all season.
These two predominately kick the ball from the back 50 arc and inside 50 - we have turned the ball over that many times from these 2 boy’s direct kicks.
Might not have been the worst today, but are right on the fringes all season.

Woosha: “Other than Patty Ambrose, I’m expecting everyone to be available for Perth.”
To my eye (and just off the top of my head) he was probably a better performer than Watson, Parish, Howlett, and Hooker, just to name a few.
