The Weid is the new Kevin Walsh.

Concerned about Adelaideās forward prowess. Our pressure needs to be on. Think their game style suits Marvel beautiful (havenāt played their this year).
The VFL match might get ugly today. Hope Voss, DāAmborssio, Tsatas and Bryan have good games so they are a chance for selection next week.
Shiel offered stuff all as sub IMO. But will come in this week regardless
OUT: Weideman, Kelly, Snelling
IN: Voss, Hind, Shiel
Sub: Davey/Wanganeen
Weideman stays in, has footy smarts and second efforts.ā
Id agree hes looked out of sorts because hes been constantly trying to play tall and take contested pack marks.
Weideman is a lead up forward, we need to use him as one.
Needs to draw his man away from the contest for Wright or get himself into space.

Hind has to come in. I know he is prone to clangers but we need his pace.

Waste of time listing changes
No one will be dropped, apart from a kid like menzie perhaps

Kevin Walsh made All Australian, Weed is nowhere near that level. He is a complete DUD.

Kevin Walsh was a good player. Knew what you were getting every week and left nothing out there.
Far cry from Weed.

Qualifier; these are the changes l would like to see, they are not the changes l think will be made.
Out: Weed, Kelly.
In: Voss, Hind.
Tsatas is probably not far off either.
Bryan may be needed, he is a better ruck option than Weed will ever be, but then someone has to come out for him.
This is a bit tin foil hat, but I wonder if thereās an added element of us getting Weideman to club by telling him he would play every week.
I remember Weid made comments when he joined saying he was keen to come to us to get consistent game time
That should have been a red flag if true. You earn a spot. You donāt get one guaranteed. Or thatās how it should work.

I was deadset against us getting him last year. He didnāt offer anything that we needed.
Itās another case of Dodoro just filling holes with blokes who arenāt up to it.
Itās either Weid or Bryan. No way Voss comes in without Bryan.
For me, itās Weid and Shiel for Bryan and Hind. Snelling or Guelfi are to be the sub.
Iām not sure how Voss gets a look in unless we shift Stringer into the middle or Langford back.
I think weāll beat the Crowd comfortably.
They try to move the ball on too much, and they just donāt have the quality disposal for it.
The way we play is made to cut that up.
But as for changes, Iād be āplaying the kids!ā
Why not though?
Itās not like Weid does a heap in the ruck. Playing against virtually no one for Port, and still only managed 4 hit outs from 13 contests.
Voss is only 3cm shorter, and a lot better at actually using his body. Iād back him over Weid in the ruck, or we just give Wright some ruck time given heās struggling a bit forward atm.

Itās clear Voss isnāt battling Weid for a spot in the team.
I actually felt we needed another tall to go into the game, but I think thatās the smallest he wants to go into games. Whilst Voss is only a few cm shorter, they play very different roles. Voss at AFL level will be more of a lead up forward.
Iām also certain, we wonāt drop Kelly. Adelaide play 4 small forwards. Heāll have the match up for him.
We are prioritising defensive first footy in the backline, so he stays in. The only way Hind comes in is for Hep (unlikely) or a midfielder.
In all honesty, I donāt think weāll make any changes next week.
