Well, it looks like Redman is all cleared to play. No MRO findings released today.
IN - Goldy, Gresham, Setterfield/Hobbs
OUT - Jones, Menzie, Kelly?
I don’t really want to omit Jones but they won’t omit 2MP and Caddy shouldn’t be dropped.
Not sure if they’ll drop Kelly but couldn’t think of who else they could omit. Maybe Hind? But I think Hind is more flexible to play different roles.
Think we should bring someone else into the midfield given our current clearance issue and play Perkins more in the forward line for now. He just isn’t having an impact currently.
Kelly would be my out. He can defend, but he is too indecisive with ball in hand. He has limited foot skills and knows his limitations, which is why he goes for short chip kick. His kicks tend to float and hang in the air too long, he should never be the designated kucker coming out of defence. If no one is open he goes long down the line.
.
The opposition give him acres of space also, because they know he won’t ever try a semi risky forward kick.
He needs to play on nearly everytime he receives a sideways chip kick, draw a defender and then release the ball.
These are not difficult things to do.
I wonder if he could do the run with job on Stewart? Stewart is too big for Guelfi and Stewart would kill him in the air too. I think Kelly could keep him honest and ■■■■ him right off too!!
Guelfi has been playing on bigger players all year, the latest being McGovern on Sunday. While Jezza peeled off and took marks, Matt still impacted on the ground with a couple of goals. Kelly is not a proven goal kicker.
