Masters was close to full strength. Bennell, Christensen, Ryder and Patton really all he was missing. You were not only at your weakest but pretty poorly balanced too. Not surprised. Masters' side is a little better this season than last. With an extra 2 teams most sides have gotten a little worse so the gap isn't huge anymore.
Crowley to hard-tag Lachie Whitfield. If another mid starts to dominate, Crowley to tag him instead. Crowley to tag Fyfe when on and in midfield, however. Curnow to semi-tag Henderson. Rance to Daniher, Astbury to Henderson, Hansen to Thompson. If midfielders are floundering, switch Goddard for Hrovat. If small defenders are floundering, switch Goddard with Hampton. If small forwards proceed to flounder after switch, move Goddard back into the forward line for whoever he was switched for. Hampton to play looser after HT. Hansen to move forward if both Hogan and Jenkins are struggling. Watts and Jenkins to be FF and CHF respectively, Hansen 3rd KPF, Hogan to move down back. Neale in mid rotation, Hunter in fwd rotation, Jaksch in def rotation. Sub Otten on for least effective small midway through 3rd.
Darn, despite the loss though atleast it helped clear a couple of things up. It's probably not worth having S Martin on the bench and we are going to get denied the ball like crazy vs teams with elite midfields so it may be worth playing more defensive mids
