Prediction Round 4, 2025: Changes vs GWS

[CursoryMercenary]

Out: McGovern (inj) Brockman, Hewett, Long
In: Waterman, Allan, Hall, Gross.

Allen to the backline to replace Gov. None of Brockman, Hewett 0r Long have done anything near enough to be given another go at the moment. Owies is next in line if he doesn't start to put some runs on the board.

[stallon]

In: Hall, Brock, Waterman/Bazzo, Gross(sub)
Out: Long, Edwards, Gov(if inj)/JWilliams, Brockman/Owies

Long -> Hall
Edwards -> Brock
Gov/JWilliams -> Waterman/Bazzo

Maybes:
Brockman/Owies -> Gross (to be sub)
Hunt -> Allan

If Waterman is no good then bring in Bazzo for Gov instead, play Allen at CHB. If Gov is good them drop JWilliams.
Brock to replace Edwards at FB
Hall to replace Long and play onball

Gross a potential in if we want to drop another player either Brockman or Owies, depends what we do with Reid/Hewett/Kelly.
Hunt for Allan on the wing

lol, Hewett did more in a quarter than most of his team mates. And was actually clean and made good decisions... Whereas a shitload of others were scrappy and made shit decisions..

 

[InTheWings]

If Waterman is fit:
Out: McGovern (inj), Jack Williams, Long
In: Waterman, Hall, Gross

If Waterman is still out:
Out: McGovern (in), Long
In: Hall, Gross.

Oscar to the backline.

 

[Dom sheed pocket]

OUT: Gov, Long, Owies
IN: Waterman Hall, Gross

Play Oscar down back. I'm sick of seeing his spud face being completely uncompetitive in the forward line. At this stage he is a liability and verging on list clogger. Let him replace Gov.

Waterman to come in if fit.

Move Harley out of the midfield, he is clearly unfit and has lost his explosive first step which makes him such an easy player to tag and take out of the contest. Play him forward or back, not sure I care.

Owies has to go out, his skill level is just so ****ing bad. I don't care about pressure acts if skills are so bad. Long has been flat as a tack this year. Time for a spell in the WAFL.

Give Harley's minutes to Hewett, Hall and Gross.

Brockman sub.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

In: Brock, Gross, Waterman, Hall
Out: McGovern, Long, J Williams, Owies
Williams to keep his spot if Waterman is still out.
There are probably still enough small forwards even if two are dropped.
Still have Ryan, Cripps & Brockman, with others like Harley & TK able to pinch hit up forward if required.

 

[Elite Pete]

In- Waterman, Gross, Hall, Brock, Bo

Out- JWill (sadly) Long, Owies. Gov, Hunt

B- Cole - HEdwards - Ginbey
HB- Maric - Brock - Duggan
C- Dewar - Hough - Kelly
HF- Harley - Oscar - Ryan
F- Cripps - Waterman - AReid
R- BWill - Hewett - Baker

Bench - Bo - Hall - Graham - Gross
Sub- Brockman

Feel sorry for the debutants against Giants away into Blues at AO. The lack of magnets to move into that midfield is concerning.

 

[Cuzz09]

Ok they won't drop TK but why not put him HFF?

In: Brock, Hall, Allan, Gross
Out: Gov, Long, Brockman, Hunt

Half forward or wing? I think there's a place for him but it would be good to free up some space for one of the kids.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Out: Gov (inj), Allen (managed), Long
In: Brock, Waterman, Gross

Backs: Edwards, Brock, Ginbey, Hough, Maric, Cole, Duggan
Mids: Kelly/Reid, Bakers , Graham, Gross, Hunt, Dewar
Rucks: Williamses
Forwards: Waterman, Reid, Ryan, Cripps, Owies, Kelly/Reid, Hewett
Sub: Brockman
Emergencies: Petch (travelling), Flynn, Long

Brock to get a debut in place of Gov. Or Bazzo or Barnett but I’m not sure either of them is ready yet, for different reasons.

Allen to get a week off to rest up, consider his future, whatever. Mostly because I don’t want to drop either Archer or Jilliams.

Gross to debut, as a midfielder please.

Didn’t consider Bo Allan because he didn’t play this week, which just seems like terrible management to me but whatever.

either yeah I just thought of his days at cat land kicking goals and less damage turning it over

Dropping Hewett?

Good grief

He's lost the plot.

 

[Rids]

Out: Gov (inj) In: Brock
Out: Cole In: Allan (unlucky for Cole but was poor today and need Allan in there)
Out: Long In: Hall (Graham to spend more time across half forward)
Out: Hunt In: Gross (Reid to spend more time back or forward)

If Waterman fit:
Out: J.Williams (unlucky - thought he competed well, big part of me wants to drop Edwards and put Oscar back)

BJ probably lucky to survive but feel like just shuffling deck chairs with him and Flynn.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Baker and Kelly gotta go to the wing and Graham to HF. Oscar Allen goes back to defense for next week and at FB, Harry to CHB .

IN: Allan, Gross, Hall, Waterman
OUT: Gov, Hunt, Brockman, Long

FB: Hough, Allen, Cole
HB: Ginbey, H.Edwards, Maric
C: Dewar, Hall, Baker
HF: Cripps, Waterman, Graham
FF: Owies, J.Williams, A.Reid
R; Flynn, Reid, Hewett
I/C: Allan, Gross, Duggan, Kelly

 

[sharps24]

Tbh I missed half of the game but I've already made peace that we're going to get to the bye before Mini even looks to make a move on the blokes I want to see out. Pure fantasy here:

Out: Gov, Edwards, Cripps, Cole, Hunt, Long
In: Brock, Gross, Allan, Waterman, Hall

F: Owies, Waterman, Hewett
HF: Reid, Reid, Duggan
C: Dewar, Ryan, Brockman
HB: Ginbey, Brock, Allan
B: Hough, Allen, Maric
Fol: Billiams, Graham, Hall
Int: Gross, Kelly, J Williams, Baker

Ryan is fit, hard and in our top 5 players. Just get him in the middle. Duggan to half forward because "you have to play your captain" sorry Cripps. Allan and Gross to debut. Captain #2 to go back [finally! its like I've willed it into existence and I'm pumped] Reid and Hewett to play forward. Hall on ball. Now lets see maybe 1 of these moves happen while McWalter persisted with the dead wood and wonders where these skill errors are coming from when its all ironed on best 22 untouchable senior players who half the board will defend to the death, "cause we'd be a lot worse without them"

I like the idea of moving him forward but Mini seems to be running four small forwards so someone has to come out for Kelly to go in. Long must have a role that none of us really understand as he has been quiet but hasn't been dropped. Cripps and Owies have been fairly decent despite commentary on this board. Brockman is probably the first man out but hasn't really done anything to warrant being dropped.

 

[Cuzz09]

Feel like Jack Williams HAS to stay in. He's a future star.

If GWS can have Stringer, Hogan, Cadman/Riccardietc

Why can't we set up with JW, Waterman, Archer and 3 smalls (Owies, Ryan, Cripps)
