Preview Changes and pre-match discussion for Round 4 vs Sydney @ SCG

[Phar Ted]

The hate here for Jed is way OTT, he was more than serviceable in his last two games at AFL level, hoping he can show his worth again.

 

[Ports1870]

Very meh.
But Williams getting a chance to keep a list spot post Hinkley ball is good

 

[sobrave]

Jonas with 10 disposals over 2 weeks is still in.

its not so much the lack of getting the ball, since he's a defender.

it's the fact that rankine showed he can't play on a small, and collingwood showed he can't play tall. he's literally useless.

if the opposition has a medium sized, relatively slow forward without too many tricks, then jonas is a decent matchup. unfortunately that doesn't exist.

 

[Powerade 08]

DBJ lol

 

[JimmyBC]

Fantasia injured lol

Someone told him to walk it off & he fell down a manhole.

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Looking forward to seeing Williams at half back at AFL level...

Good in the air and good user.

I'd prefer Jed to Oratzio

 

[Doctor Feel]

I'd prefer Jed to Oratzio

Thats like saying you prefer the giant douche over the shit sandwitch.

These changes help please the masses who want change just because we are losing but we need to remember the sanfl Team performance was way worse than the afl team, they were a disgrace and not a single one of the players that played in that game deserve a call up.

we are worse off with these changes in my opinion.

How the fk did Fantasia get injured doing **** all for 5 minutes.

You tipped that one (williams)
Should be interesting.
I thought they would return to Burgoyne.

Williams vs Burgoyne last week isn’t close.
I’m a Burgoyne fan but I’d have him smashing the door down before he gets back into the AFL side.

Williams is good at football. I was imagining him getting delisted by us being picked up as a rookie by Collingwood and going on to play 150 games as a small defender.

 

[backtozero]

What a bust Fantasia has been. Unbelievable.

 

[chachi11]

Bringing in some new blood like Sinn and Pasini would have got me slightly interested....care factor is 0.

 

[sobrave]

What a bust Fantasia has been. Unbelievable.

i expected him to be utterly useless when we got him.
ditto motlop.

we keep recruiting flaky, injury prone b graders that get even worse when they come here.

can't wait for the recruiting coup of a morbidly obese jake stringer in a year or two.

 

[chachi11]

Hahaha...I just realised Fantasia is injured again and not omitted.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Williams and Mcentee god help us. Wouldn’t be in any other teams best 23

 

[RossFC]

McEntee really stinks at SANFL level, should be playing for Port Districts. But for some reason he's better at AFL level.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Surprised McEntee takes a spot over Tank but overall these selections are actually pretty good.

Glad to see a gold pass holder has finally been dropped, and glad to see Williams coming in.

 

[gbear]

IN: McEntee, McKenzie, Mead, Williams


OUT: Byrne-Jones (omitted), Clurey (omitted), Fantasia (quad), Jones (omitted)

Emergencies: T. Clurey 17, O. Lord 30, D. Byrne-Jones 33, L. Jones 34

Selection: Four changes to face the Swans

Port Adelaide has made four changes at the selection table as the side prepares to travel for a Saturday evening battle with the Swans.

Oh Port are seriously ****ed if that is the best they can do

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Fantasia is 27 - as much as I'd like him to be, he is extremely unlikely to ever be a success at Port now.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

The year is done with this coach, play Sinn for the remaining year I don’t care if he is ready or not, we invested so much to get him. May as well play him

 

[Coobk001]

Just looked properly, apart from the fact these selections do make us far weaker they are good to see. The DBJ one I'm less excited about now though as it looks like he might be the sub.

Fantasia is done. I doubt he'll even get fit again given his history.

 

[Hot Port]

Well at least DBJ got dropped, that’s a good start.
And glad to see Williams is given a chance to prove himself at the AFL level

 

[gbear]

DBJ got dropped you gotta be happy the syndicate has taken a blow.

Only 18 months too late though!

 

[EskimoPAFC]

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

McEntee coming in after an impressive 0 goals, 0 behinds, 8 disposals, 2 frees against game last week for the magpies. Glad our players are getting reward for good form
