Woosha knows that if you want to beat ESSINGTON you have to think like ESSINGTON

McKernan is flakey. His best is much better, but his best only surfaces occasionally. Not much separates him and brown overall.
In any event, my point was the blitz tanty meltdown was a tad of an overreaction; not that the selected team doesnât warrant criticism.

So very much this.
Itâs illogical.
Those players won their first game of the season despite having lost a player in the first qtr.
Canât have that rubbish⌠make 2 unforced changes.
Arseholes.
Ambrose has been outstanding in shutting down his opponents. He may not be as showy as others but he normally stops one forward from kicking goals which is more than you can say for the other backmen. Some of his disposals could be questioned at times but lets not forget he hasnât played that much due to injuries so if he gets some good game time you might just be surprised how useful he can be. As mentioned before Francis has not defended as well yet but I still would have liked him to stay as he can take some important marks in the backline when we need it most. Letâs see what this team can bring on Saturday. Not totally convinced with all the changes. Guelfi needs to taken away from the backline and into the half forward or wing. He was put into the backline and subsquently dropped due to lack of performanceâŚno brainer. Sometimes I wonder how these sides are picked and if anyone there has the nouse that most Blitzers have when it comes to picking sides.
Myers to get BOG. Z Clarke to dominate in the ruck and Brown to kick 7. Have faith people.

I would rather Francis running about in the midfield than Myers
Come on he was a good back, but hes past it now, we need someone who can run through the middle 20% of the time
It takes Myers 5 games to get warmed up too. Why the â â â â does he get a free pass straight in?
This coaching panel, wow.

Great to see Redman back in. He is a gun. Far better defender than Guelfi, who was starting to find his feet in defence.
Hopefully Francis is not 100% and that why he is omitted. He has not been as good as end of last year, but he has not been terrible by any stretch or out of form like other players. Reckon he should have stayed in, it is puzzling if it solely an omission. He is a match winner.
My worry is our forwardline, it needs a focal point and pack marking option. Brown is not this, so unless they play Hooker forward reckon they will struggle.
Myers, look it was always going to happen. No point throwing a tanty over it.

People - please remember that yes we have 4 changes, but two of those because of shredded hamstrings. Changes had to be made, I think its the ins/outs (and not number) that is riling people so much.
Is your mate @Donnington by any chance? How long til he posts the selfies on here?

Both out late, both omitted.
Obviously more than just a coincidence and the player leaders have probably handed out the penalty.

Guess who got the most clearances (10) at VFL level last week?
Yep, that big-bodied inside midfielder, Draper.
YOUâLL TAKE MYERS AND YOUâLL LIKE IT.

Yeah Myers probably said Iâm taking you pingaheads out and putting myself back in.
Have to hope Franga is just resting, gees, thats not a good lookin forward line, donât see many marks in 50 with Brown/Clark/Bellcho 
Myers and integrity are synonymous.

Our small forwards could get off the chain this week. Need to give our small fwds space and exploit Brisbaneâs medium/small defenders.
Stringer is our marking target, or we kick it in front of tippa not on his head
â â â â JLT, see ya Darcy!
Get slaughtered ⌠Ridleyâs fault
Lose to a bottom 3 team, sorry Kyle, should have stood the mark.
Get a win, sorry boys but you could leave a thing amor two from Zac Clake ⌠Francis and Guelfi, GAWN!
Mitch Brown the only dude over 21 to get dropped this year. Stiff.
