If Laverde is inj then replace with Baldwin (who was excellent when he played early in the year)
Not sure what to do with Phillips, probably can’t replace Bryan who was fairly good. Not sure who else goes out, perhaps Heppell will need a rest with the short turn around.
I would honestly be making major changes but not particularly due to the result
I would have played a very different line up at different stages of the year, I want to see what we really have on the list before this years draft and trade period
Decisions need to be made on plenty of guys
I don’t know who to replace with Tsatas, but I agree we could do with him coming in, just not Dyson imo. Hepp has been playing the mature tough general role down the backline though, I wouldn’t think Tsatas can play that role.
Play the two rucks. Bryan has had a crack and will go ok vs English athletically. Phillips provides more of a contest fwd than Weideman. Keeps 2MP forward
Stringer is not right. Play a fit and desperate player. Voss
I’d prefer Hind over Kelly/Hep also to give more run out of defense also but don’t think it’ll happen. They prob want Kelly to shut out Weightman, now that I think of it is required & better match up than Hind.
I would like to see Hind used as a pressure forward for a couple of weeks. Can kick a goal and is quick. It’s coming out of our forward line far too easily for prolonged periods of the game.
We have a five day turnaround for the VFL players today leading into the next AFL match. If any of Voss, Tsatas, Baldwin, Cox or Mass have pulled out of the match at half time, then that’s a good indication they might be selected next week.
