Preview Changes Vs Adelaide round 19

[lmach]

Doesn't bode well...

For Muzza

Patrick Keane ‏@AFL_PKeane 4m
Adel v WC; S Thompson in for Lynch. Hill, Lycett, Cripps, Bennell in for Cox, Smith, Sheppard, Tunbridge.

So long Ash Smith, I suppose Hill is also playing for his career now

 

[Keys]

Disappointed at tunbridge being omitted

 

[Jarlcorbz]

This is the most speed put into this side since Cousins came back in 2007.

Bennel - Very Fast
Cripps - Fast
Hill - Fast
Lycett - Faster than Cox

 

[bodazoka]

What's Tunners contract status? I would of liked to see him play the rest of the year, If Hill is useless this game I would put him back in and stick with this line up for the season. I'm happy McGovern and Sheed are still given games though.

 

[placebo]

What's the ******* point of dropping Tunbridge? The season is over. My god. Hey, we can keep playing McGinnity, a guy with no future or scope for improvement, but a young guy with some promising traits who has had limited exposure at AFL level? Nah, * it, why be that forward-thinking?

 

[WCErevival]

Maybe they dont rate Tunbridge.

 

[WCEbrody]

He's played a couple games as sub now , they're probably just giving him a full game in the WAFL.

From what i've seen in press conferences, Simpson rates Tunbridge pretty highly

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Deck chairs, titanic. ect...

Seem to use this saying all the time at this stage of the season.

Mcginnity deserves his spot until he loses it.

Bennel - Very Fast fast
Cripps - Fast average
Hill - Fast slower than Hill
Lycett - Faster than Cox Who isn't

The idea that you keep playing talentless hacks because "they are doing their best and giving their all" is mediocre thinking ...

It's Dalziell thinking

Hopefully the reports from the airport were wrong and he's not in Adelaide as an emergency.

If he doesn't get a game this week he'll have played about three quarters in four weeks

Every team needs a Rowan Jones

 

[WCEprod]

Just not a whole team of them

 

[jaxxon]

...utility player Simon Tunbridge was omitted along with Ashley Smith.

Because Tunbridge has played the last two games as the substitute, the decision to leave him out was more about giving him some genuine match time, rather than the need to leave him at East Perth.

Well, we will wait and see. Would have preferred him getting a full run in the ones.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Tunbridge being out is annoying. 2 games as the sub and then dropped. That's been our norm for exposing young talent for years.

Couldn't care less about Hill and Cripps, but the fact Bennell is FINALLY back is great.

Lycett will be out to prove a point this week.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Dropping Tunbridge for Hill.

Guess Josh is playing for his career.

 

[WCFaithful]

I was chatting to a friend of mine, who knows a guy and Shep has actually broken a bone in his foot and will be out for the rest of the season

I also asked what the deal was with Wellingham. He simply said that he was simply lazy (something that we didn't already know!). Not only that, he was not following his instructions on a given day. He also said, that with the amount of vision that is available, Wellingham was aware of his issues, but chose not to do anything about it.

Doesn't bode well...

* him off

Yeah, wouldn't be ideal. Needs a full game at either level this week.

You'd think so, don't think Hill has much left to give tbh... he's as good as he's ever going to get.

 

[the harry]

Had high hopes for Hill this season because he has foot skills but it's really gone to s**t for him this year.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I don't mind keeping Hill on the list, would be pretty handy depth.

And?

He was a far superior footballer to McGinnity
