They must have changed the voting system if he got 96 votes. When the backline is working well together, Maxwell is ok, but one on one, he gets beaten every time, and that's what annoys me. He can do whatever he wants off the ball, it's when the ball comes near him that I have an issue. lol Presti, one one one, was as good as anybody, and he had great closing speed. Maxwell is pretty much in the Tom Harley camp. Great leader of men, low skill level.
will Q-Stick ruck the majority of the game? was in the top 2-3 players last week for the Pies and did very well (esp in the last qtr)
Nah I'd say Ben Hudson will do the majority of the ruck work this week. With the Q Stick down forward again it should help Cloke again
Team v Hawthorn: B: Nathan Brown – Alan Toovey – Ben Reid HB: Marty Clarke – Harry O’Brien – Heath Shaw C: Steele Sidebotton – Dane Swan – Dale Thomas HF: Jamie Elliott – Travis Cloke – Quentin Lynch FF: Ben Sinclair – Tyson Goldsack – Sam Dwyer Foll: Ben Hudson – Scott Pendlebury – Jarryd Blair I/C: Alex Fasolo – Jordan Russell – Brent Macaffer – Josh Thomas – Ben Johnson – Paul Seedsman – Jack Frost In: D.Thomas , B.Hudson , J.Thomas , J.Frost , A.Fasolo Out: D.Jolly (Ribs) , N.Maxwell (Wrist) Final bench of Fasolo, Macaffer, Russell and Frost leaving J Thomas, Seedsman and Johnson emergencies? Frost should play due to Hawthorn being a bit top heavy up forward with Buddy, Rough, Hale, Gunston etc.
Jordan Russell should never play again. He is shit. Johnson is far better. Seedsman needs to go back to the twos and find his heart. I hope Frost gets in, loved the way he attacked the man and the pill in the VFL last week. Toovey is lucky to still be getting a game. He's dropped off a bit, even late last year he was battling away. And Marty Clarke......
I thought Clarke was one of our best last week. Had 22 touches, kicked a crucial goal for us and looked really composed with the ball when a couple of others panicked. He was also full of run in the last qtr when we really needed it. Agree about Seedsman, give him a couple of games in the magoos to get his confidence back.
