Changes vs GWS

[James]

Egglemosse-Smith and Chol both did well and Ellis played his best game for a while.
Soldo is not the answer but should probably stay until Nankervis is fit.
As above I think McIntosh should drop back. His recent form has been ordinary. Not for this but I noticed yesterday that on two occasions when he made mistakes he laughed with team mates about it. He seems pretty complacent to me and while it wouldn’t be the end it wouldn’t do any harm.
If fit Jack has to come in and so should Baker.
Houlie has been a great player and remains a very good one. with his game against StKilda possibly his worst ever. His game against GC was OK, without being outstanding.
If Lambert is fit, Baker and Riewoldt for Houlie and McIntosh.

Don't see a matchup for Astbury with this Giants team. Not sure he has the agility to compete with their mobile forwards

 

[TrialByVideo]

Kelly off, Healy reckons it's a calf..... spent 5minutes as a physio and reckons he can diagnose any injury from 100metres away!
Gee ..... they're rattled the giants!

In Baker Riewoldt
Out McIntosh
B Astbury Broad Grimes
HB Edwards Valistun Houlie
C Bolton Martin Cotchin
HF Rioli Castagna Lambert
F Stack Lynch Riewoldt
R Soldo Graham Prestia
I/C from Baker Chol Egglemosse-Smith Ellis Lambert ??

Why would you drop McIntosh?

From the RFC report of the game.

BEST
Gold Coast: Witts, Joyce, Weller, Swallow, MacPherson
Richmond: Cotchin, Lambert, Ellis, Bolton, Prestia, McIntosh

Geez thatd be a great result if Kelly misses next week

No way we drop chol and have Jack ruck

Would you really want to risk Jack rucking when he is just coming back from a serious knee injury and there is an even chance he could get hurt in a ruck contest more than a marking contest?

 

[ryan]

Jack in for Egg Stack will go back n play half back.

iMac very important structure wise at the G

 

[Mr Brightside]

So possibly our forward line next week could be Lynch, Reiwoldt, Caddy, Castagna, Stack ,Rioli with Martin and Bolton resting there, personally I’d just clear the 50 out for the Stackman

Then the compiler of that report needs to stop doing lines at Shane Mumfords house parties.

Don't think McIntosh will be dropped, but he was putrid on Saturday.

And don't forget that Mat De Boer is out as well.

 

[lukeanddad]

Mac was truly appalling. It would be a shame for egg to go before him.

Who died and made *smile* a player
*smile* kicker of the highest order

Who died and made ****** a player
**** kicker of the highest order

As a ball winner yes, but as a tagger this year he has taken all before him: Dusty, Cripps etc.

Not a coincidence that they have turned to crap once he got injured.

Give me a break. He is *smile*.
Dusty shouldve got 5 frees the last time we played them.
He spent the entire game holding him.
Let decrap do it on the G..

 

[Scoop]

Those thinking that Macintosh will get dropped will be severely disappointed. He ain’t pretty but bloody important on how we structure up especially at the MCG.

He’s very close to going out. Won’t be shocked at all if it was him to go out.

 

[Birdman19]

One bad match does not maketh a drop. I have no idea who deserves to be dropped. Only a few matches ago darksiders were calling for George's head and a few weeks later he bobs up with 5 goals. Kmac is an important piece of the puzzle for our success but he did not play up to his standard. If Jack and Caddy are back then I would say it would be out of Rioli? 14 disposals 2 goals 3 pts (harsh), Graham? 23 disposals 7 tackles ( harsh), Short?22 disposals (harsh). As I said I have no clue as to who goes out...great problem for a club to have for this end of the season

 

[Brodders17]

The obvious out if you want to keep Eggy in is Houli.

Funny stuff.

The compiler may have looked at stats only. Statistically KMac was almost identical to Stacky and he also compared we’ll to Dusty, although neither of them were named amongst the bests.
