Changes V Carlton

[Punt n Brunton]

Tarrant had a better second half, but I’d still swap him for Miller. If we drop Soldo, we then have Miller or Balta who could be second ruck as needed. I’d bring in Lambert and make Edwards the Medi sub.

Massive game against the Blues. All chips in to win this game.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Like this maybe Edwards for MJ or even the Sonz.

Edwards is also in the gun. Can’t run for 4 quarters. A liability. Perfect sub as we inject more youth.

 

[btoz_01]

They’ll have Dekonning jumping all over Nank we definitely need a second ruck to fall back and take marks in the backline

Agreed. I thought we lost forward pressure going with shedda instead of MRJ

 

[Platinum member]

In lynch and lambo

Out - Hugo and shedda (sub)

 

[craig]

Could be time to go with Balta as the second ruck.

Or back to FB / CHB

 

[mrposhman]

Tarrant only goes out for team balance, not for Miller.

In Lynch, Ryan, Lambert
Out Tarrant (Balta back), Soldo, Edwards (who can be sub).

I'd rotate Edwards and Lambert as sub for much of the rest of the season.

 

[BrisTiger24]

In: Lynch, Lambert
Out: Tarrant, Soldo

Balta back and relief ruck

 

[Bill Haverchuck]

Out Soldo Edwards Tarrant/Gibcus
In Lynch Lambert MJR

Is playing a backman as second ruck a viable option?

 

[tigersnake]

Until 3 quarter time I would have been in favour of dropping Ralph, but he lifted in the last so I'd back him for another week.

 

[DjJazzyPete]

Out Soldo, Tarrant ,
In Lynch, Miller
Lambert if availble

Use Edwards as sub till his 300th

[Batchelor Party]

Tarrant played really well on McKay in Round 1.
Out: Soldo
In: Lynch

Out: Soldo
In: Lynch

He is too slow and his increasing lack of confidence is a real problem.
McKay Curnow Cripps even Silvagni would kill him.
Miller who is playing his best football over several weeks now in what has become a shambolic VFL defence, is the better prospect by far.

 

[Stig]

Can’t see Ralphsmith getting a game next week . Those who disagree suggest you go and have a look at the turnover in last quarter. Then gave away 50
Poor last night
Lambert surely comes in

 

[Spirit of Jack]

Dimma is determined to get Edwards 300 games. If he is going to stay the course, it must be as the sub as he has been horrible all year. It's over.

 

[daniel30]

Gez what's going on with Nank and Soldo being toyed by part time rucks 2 games in a row.

I thought Nank was good, 29 HO's, 16 disposals from 71% game time. Finlayson was...ok, 9 HO's, 14 disposals from 86% game time.

I know we're not a clearance team but the number of times we got the hit out and they waltzed away was concerning. Blues midfield will rip us a new one next week unless we apply more pressure at stoppages
