Preview Round 22 vs GWS Changes & Pre-Match Discussion

[portly]

Is their actual confirmation that Marshall has a leg injury that prevents him from kicking long distances? Would make sense.

I've seen/heard 3 reports yes.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I've seen/heard 3 reports yes.

We aren't a chance to win for 3 years then.

Expect Trav to hit 400 and Lycett and Dixon to keep on keeping with Jonas and McKenzie.

 

[manureid]

AFL ins doesn't have Hayes in but does have Dante out. So who is rucking?

 

[Portwon]

It's on the Port website

Hayes is in

heck this club

 

[Willsy10]

any danger of something going right for us?

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

No Hayes in final team. Finlayson rucking. Thank god, could you imagine more heat on our medical staff.

 

[afl2004]

No ruck and mctnee stays lol

 

[Portwon]

How can you be named as an emergency from an injury list. FFS.

I think he plays but they have named him as an emergency to avoid scrutiny.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Hayes is in, but to the emergencies list.

What in the absolute heck is going on? If he's fit, why the heck isn't he playing? If he's not fit, why the heck is he an emergency?

 

[Duckimus Prime]

No Hayes in final team. Finlayson rucking. Thank god, could you imagine more heat on our medical staff.

The AFL has stated that teams are free to put any of the named 26 players into the actual 22 without need for an explanation.

Only one AFL coach would pick McEntee and that happens to be the Port coach

Burgoyne unlucky

 

[Ports1870]

Finlayson has been horrifically out of form and we need him to find form before finals so what do you do?
Play him in the ruck.
So hecken stupid

 

[Duckimus Prime]

We aren't a chance to win for 3 years then.

Expect Trav to hit 400 and Lycett and Dixon to keep on keeping with Jonas and McKenzie.

3 reports of Marshall having a leg injury that prevents him from kicking long is going to result in us having no chance to win for 3 years?

And Boak to play another 2 seasons?

 

[Ford Fairlane]

 

[afl2004]

Miss management kings lmfao

 

[davesnothere]

No. There's something really bizzare going on.


Could be Hayes has to pass a fitness test on Sunday?

That's the only way this makes any sense at all?

 

[Capital Power]

Only one AFL coach would pick McEntee and that happens to be the Port coach

Coaching at the top of his game

 

[Shane_Mag]

Straight sets exit in finals looking likely.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

 

[Ports1870]

No. There's something really bizzare going on.

I really hecken hope that’s the case but the clubs not that smart

 

[Willsy10]

Play him in the ruck.
So *en stupid

Disagree with this. Best way to get his confidence back is to get him around the ball.

And i don't think we've got any other choice. Unless Hayes is not actually injured and can play.

We'd win first prize in the miss management pageant.
