Bring them Both in and let them share the Ruck....At least Casboult can play forward and Wood did show he can move forward and kick a goal or two. Warnock does nothing....He just can't stay in the team with this sort of performance....

Spoke to Nick Graham tonight and I got the impression he's more than hoping to play, I reckon he'll come in.

Too bloody right!!!!!

This is part of the problem....they are way to comfortable being on an AFL list.

Another dude who can't kick the footy.... Did he improve on his skinny body from last year? He will have a go but he has a long way to go!!!

Bring him in.... he is definitely better than Warnock :grin:

I agree with your outs Bluey44, and also agree Wood should be elevated. Much as anyone will say about him, including myself when we got him, does float around the ground and takes marks. More than any of our other ruckmen do.

yes!! Touhy had been awful this season, honestly he needs at least 3 - 5 weeks back in the reserves, he's a complete waste of space out there right now.

and i agree with most on here, drop Warnock and Rowe, let Wood and Casboult take the rucks... and then when Kreuzer comes back leave him in the ruck where he belongs, at least he competes around the ground.

Even though a lot of Gibbs' possessions where ineffective I did get the sense a few times he was at least trying to crash into the packs, which he did none of against Richmond... I definitely don't think he's our main culprit right now.

for me...

OUT: Warnock, Touhy, Robinson, Ellard, Rowe
IN: Graham, Casboult, Wood, Cripps, Scotland

We should win comfortably.

But I think the mc will be too nervous to swing the axe too much.

If we lose this even sticks might start to turn on mick.

No chance ... Mick turns on Sticks ... big time

Spot On. I very much hope these are the changes...

Touhy is prob the only one I'd like to come back in the future!!

I hope Robbo doesn't play another game for us. I can't stand him getting the ball and aimlessly pumping it as far as he possibly can, to absolutely no-one. Does my head in. It's happened that many times in the last 3 weeks that I hope he is gone for good....
Ellard is a nothing
Rowe is a battler
And Warnock is an absolute spastic

One more thing, never bring back McLean either. Time to give Cripps, Graham, Temay, Lucas etc a good go

Are you sure you have the right player??

Agree with McLean being done. Give the kids a good run instead.

And robinson, if he's not putting his body on the line, he's not doing anything for us. Scrap him too.

The yearly apology came really early this year.

A new record, round three for the yearly apology?

That is @#$%&! pathetic! Embarrassing really. The message I get from that is a win against the all mighty Demons and all is forgiven. That sums up Sticks & this Boards strategy.

that video is such embarrassing piffle

sticks is no leader

I have to agree, couldn't stop looking around the whole time he talked. Didn't seem interested, had no conviction about him at all. Reminded me of the monotone robot from the original Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy.....except of course the fact that that thing had integrity.

Extremely uninspiring leader with a distinct lack of charisma and passion based on that video. Those of you that know him personally are welcome to disagree. I don't so I'm calling it as the layman sees it.

One who has been very poor is Garlett, I thought Rowe was ok and Robbo is 3rd in disposals so would keep him.

Out: Garlett, Touhy, White
In: dont care

..I reckon cripps is a fair chance, ready or not.... ..we'll see how desperate we are..

Out: Robbo (Never To Come Back), Ellard (NTCB), Warnock (NTCB), Rowe (NTCB), White (NTCB) Garlett (Im so flowering over him its not funny)

In: Wood, Casboult, Graham, Watson (just give him 6 straight games before we put a line through him FFS), Cripps, Temay

Try Watto at FF. Tell the mids and HF to keep the ball low so that he doesnt have to wait an eternity and shit his pants with what the defenders will do. He's a beautiful kick. Could kick 40-50 in a season if developed

Tuohy told that he has three games to show glimpses of midfield understanding otherwise he rots in the seconds for double that time learning to be a mid.

Hendo down back, Waite runs between the arcs supporting the def and forw

JUST DO SOMETHING BLUES...I'm over this nightmare

Amazing how people on here are seeing Wood as the saviour. FMD :hitcomputer:

Instead of Wood we should have recruited a young developing project ruckmen and given him games if Warnock and Kruezer both went down. Wood is not the future. Warnock is our ruckmen and we are paying him a fortune to do so therefore we are stuck with him. Playing Wood makes no sense.

If it's wet and Cripps plays he will get it 34 times

But more likely watch them bring Levi in for a wet game and he struggles and they drop him again
