Loved the games from the guys who come into the team this week, Jeffery, Davies, Sexton were good and will definitely hold their spot. Liked ainsworth on the wing although they probably move him forward next week with fiorini to return.
Seeing how fatigued all players were tonight shows that the 5 day back up is just madness. Interesting to see who gets rested, tough call because it's a hugely important game .
Would love to see ainsworth getting a go in the middle in these conditions, hard body explosive and puts pressure on. Not going to get pretty footy tonight just need to handle the slippery ball better.
Not sure how to feel about this one, expected to win but just feels like north will win one at some point and this may well be the one. Powell and rosas are 2 important players for us but good sides get wins with players missing. If we get a big response from the midfield who were smashed last...
He has been taking the 2nd tall this year and ballard looks lost. Ballard has struggled mainly with the change of game style though, he needs opposition to bomb it in and he reads it better but the run and overlap makes it hard for him to play to his strengths. Mac is more versatile, can play on...
Seems his ideal position right now, has elite endurance and will be able to float across for marks as an intercepter rather than being pushed under it in the forward line.
In the heat of battle and you're extremely frustrated with the way you have played and little cheat zorko takes a dive and receives a 50m penalty, is probably a fairly easy time to say something that you wouldn't normally say. Will is a bloody good man and I'd stick by him through a small...
So we are looking at something like,
Jeffery>Powell
Humphrey > swallow
Sexton> fiorini
With luko forward surely we can't go with read or day fwd/ 2nd ruck so long or farrar into the 22 with the other sub. Just means we need to have a makeshift 2nd ruck of luko/Andrew. I actually have wondered...
What a joke. I get they need to look like they are doing the right thing in terms of this kind of abuse but seriously just about every game of footy across the land these kind of throw away lines are said. Maybe worth a game but 5 is crazy. Bet it was zorko that dobbed him in.
Let's be honest swallow has been dropped, maybe with the view of resting Graham next week against the cats. Fiorini has done more kms than any other suns player and a rest makes more sense. Wouldn't be surprised if day plays next week and Walter is also rested.
Have to agree, although he got stitched up by some pretty decent players I thought he showed some really good signs. He's tough and team first, some of his efforts especially in that wet game v Adelaide were inspiring. He also frees up Powell to be more attacking. I would stick with him or even...
Have to agree re ainsworth, would definitely rather keep him but if there is a top liner wanting to come to the club and moving on ainsworth would help make it happen then I would move on pretty quickly.
As for dusty I don't mind either way but we are really lacking those skilful goal assist...
As frustrating as it was with the lack of plan from dimma to stop the Lions, I did enjoy the fact that he threw the magnets around mid game. So many times dew would roll out with the same line-up when it clearly wasn't working was hard to watch. You can see that dimma wants to try a few...
I think the issue with Lukosius is that with his lack of strength and power he is a player that will rely on being an elite endurance runner to reach his full potential. Going by clips of pre season it seems he only started full training after Christmas, he had Achilles issues last year and I'd...
I think at some stage they will want to see if witts and Moyle can play in the same team, this could be the week. Gives witts more rest with the hot conditions and we find out if they can be serviceable forward. At worst there is always the sub.
The fact that zorko and neale are the best 2 players on the ground pretty much sums up everything that's bad about this performance, and it's half on dimma. Just couldn't possibly acknowledge dew did something right last year and had a decent plan. Dewy would be chuckling to himself tonight.
