Coach with a decision to sit someone on weekend

[fridaysfingers]

Kelman confirmed he was signed as a spare during the ST holder event if i remember correctly.

If it is the case I happily stand corrected as I wasn’t at the event

Sorry I don’t think he did.

Last one in sits,,not a clue who it was mind .

 

[pjj365]

Could we afford to sit Ben and Josh - they deserve some paternity leave

If everyone is fit and healthy you look at either a D man or a winger who is out of form...too early to say who is out of form for me.

Also need to think about Clan and who is best to help us get the result....

Hopefully have same problem Sunday.

Drop Batch Saturday and maybe Crandall Sunday?

But if either Waller or Barrow aren't 100% then rest them up.

NM-wise if either game was CC I would expect Booth to start that game and us use either an emergency or our 2-way NM as the back up. But as both league games I'd expect Booth v Clan and Bowns v Steelers

I think I'd prefer the headache of who to bench than the despair of a short roster.

Batch or Bowns, both are going to be having a sleepless nights for a while as they've both got new borns / one is still expecting so might as well give them Saturday off and let them rock, paper, scissors for Sunday lol

Yeah, anyone who has had kids will know how hard the first few weeks and months are. Between regular feeds and nappy changes, sleep deprivation, visitors and overall excitement, it's tough to focus on other stuff.

I'd rather put guys in who are completely in the zone and focussed than put extra pressure on a new dad.

They've both had their babies... If we rest Bowns we'd still have to rest someone else as you can't play without a back-up.

We have a call up goalie we can use and murdy if things got desperate.

 

[Finny]

We have a call up goalie we can use and murdy if things got desperate.

But we would still have to rest a non-netminder in addition to Bowns.

Are you suggesting Chad would play in net? Lol

 

[Swarley]

I'd give him a shot lol.

 

[Phinktastique]

Unless Waller or Barrow need to be rested a bit longer i think on early form perhaps Duggan. Chad has certainly earned his spot.

 

[Diablo3]

Tough choice for the coach. No-one is playing that bad at the moment, so it has to be a tactical choice on both nights

Agree - it’s a tough call as, like you say, nobody is playing particularly bad in any way. Nice to be in this predicament rather than being short of bodies.

 

[Swarley]

More interest to know who this new signing is that's apparently gone under the radar.

From Wallys 2ales account

 

[tim78]

Could be office based/ coaching based.

Would that be a signing though if it's office based?

Could well just be one of the new guys, rather than a new signing.
