Changes for JLT round 5 (Melbourne) - it’s here, go nuts

Hahahah oh how I wish Mark Alvey was the U19s coach, would have made the punch line perfect

From Woosha’s press conference, I can’t see many changes being made.

He made reference to backing the players in. And being pleased with their response.

Can only hope that Hooker is available this week. The really unpopular question is, if he’s available, do we throw him in the forward line for some stability (I know, I know!).

VFL practice match thread mentioned Laverde coming off with a blown up ankle, so he may not be available either?

OUT: Heppell, Hurley, Myers, Bellchambers, Zaharakis, Baguley
Tell me with a straight face they’ll have anything to do with the next flag

IN: I don’t care

I think Baguley out and Laverde in is one that will happen.

Lav is injured

i would kill for us to debut a player just for some excitement and enthusasim

Hooker is our most important player. With him at FB I can almost see us winning

Kidding if anyone thinks he will change anything.

Probably drop Parish again.

Agreed - the team was booed off the field. They lost to a rabble of a team (who looked okay compared to us) and can’t seem to stick to a game plan.

He thinks that’s okay?

Ah how I miss the ol White Knights days @benfti

Essendon have been ■■■■ for so long I actually have this gif saved from the Knights days when he would play Hocking in the backline.

I just want to see players in their correct positions.

Guelfi staying in to play Defense ahead of Ridley was one of the most boneheaded moves I can remember.

I’d go tall vs the Dees, and play a double ruck to work Gawn over. Draper IN and Bellchambers to FF at the expense of Smack.

Seeing guelfi at full back, while Ridley was dropped for “team balance”… smh

T. Bell, Myers and Baguley should be dropped. No question. If Hooker is fit then Ambrose will have to go…not dropping Hurley or Francis.

Zacka, Smack and Brown could go too. But who is in the reserves who can come in? So they get lucky.

Except we have averaged 53 inside 50’s per match which is more than the opposition.

Who have we got in the reserves that can come in.

You couldn’t pit Draper against Gawn. As much as I hate watching TBC play.

I reckon they will go in with no changes.

That surprises me.

I’d say the quality of those entries have been very poor.

Not sure changes would improve this team…

Need another hard week on the training track.

Moz kicked a couple in the Magoos.
