Preview R4: Changes vs Richmond - IN: Michie OUT: Frost

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

Out: Frost (inj), Vince (possible susp), Dawes (s**t)
In: Gawn, Michie, Inanimate Carbon Rod (Grimes if the Rod is unable to fulfill it's duties).

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

He's certainly improved his ground ball contested footy work , but that marking effort ... s**t if that was the last 10 minutes of a close final there's no way that would be tolerated so I want to see it stamped out now

ThePuppetMaster I don't think it was his worst game at all, he was good over the footy when it was on the ground but somewhere along the line he needs to learn that his in ability to give his all to important contests is actually costing his team mates

Yeah, I get it mate - Roos has other ways to teach instead of just dropping!

 

[RandB]

How we went with Dawes, Hogan, Watts, Frost, Vandenberg in these conditions is beyond me.

Anyway...

Out: Frost

In: Mid

Kent needs to pull his finger out with his attack on the loose ball and 1 on 1, he just likes to coast at times. I like him when he's on but sometimes accountability goes missing.

Vandenberg had 19 touches today but most of them were midfield where we needed a better ball user.

Watts just doesn't get it.

 

[wowlace]

Can Pedo get a game? I wouldn't be against dropping Dawes now.

 

[Tempy Tiger]

Why would you drop Watts? Is daylight inside our best 22.

Bring Grimes in for Richmond for Frost.

Because he is frightened.
I'd drop Watts and Frost out injured. Bring in Michie and Pederson. Grimes would be stiff but if he comes in it would have to be fore Howe.

 

[Dez!]

Out: Frost (foot)

In: Michie

- Dawes has to relief ruck
- Tigers typically go to water when the physicality gets turned up
- Howe one last chance to play like he gives a s**t

 

[Djcjdees]

Anyone thing vince could be in trouble with that bump on danger?

No but I think old Glass Jaw should be receiving a few letters in the mail a la Monfries a couple of seasons ago. Pretty pathetic the way he was throwing his head back.

Second ruck?

 

[Dez!]

Second ruck?

Make concrete hands do it, f*** it if he doesn't like it.

Learn to mark or suck it up and ruck.

 

[Headless]

I'd just drop him for Pedo. Everybody wins.

 

[Dez!]

I'd just drop him for Pedo. Everybody wins.

That's the dream but it won't happen unfortunately.

 

[wowlace]

Pedo can ruck. Pedo is the honey badger.

 

[SuburbanMe]

Out: Watts
In: Pedo

Nick Maxwell (on the MRP) reckons Kent will get off with a fine and nothing more. So he stays in the side.

 

[stabler]

I didn't see yesterdays game but will Bern play next week? I bloody hope he does, love the Bern

 

[Dez!]

Yes.

 

[stabler]

Yes.

Sweet thanks Dez. Just about to get Jon Ralph's opinion on the matter on SEN. What's the bet that as a tiges supporter he says 1-2 weeks. What a flog.

As someone said before Maxwell (who's on the MRP) said he'd probably get away with a fine.

 

[stabler]

Hmmm. Ralphie reckons just a few fines handed out. Hmmm.

Still a flog.

 

[Tulip]

Did people miss Watts' smother in the last to set up Garlett's goal. I thought it was very good and proved he wants to fight.

You're really going to try with the lynch mob here?

May as well give it up mate, most people here can't look at both sides of the coin they'll only acknowledge the bad and ignore the good.

I was as disappointed as anyone with those dropped marks, but people need to see the bigger picture. He didn't duck his head, either: It was nowhere near what Pedo was dropped for two seasons ago.

 

[Headless]

If I were selecting next week's side, there is 0% chance a healthy Watts would not be in it.

He was in and about a lot of contests as well and I want to kick anyone in the nuts that points out that 2 on 1 contest that led to Hogan's goal as a negative.

 

[Blackas87]

See who performs well in the VFL but would like another midfielder in for a tall. Frost out, and after big games last week, Michie and Toumpas are the front runners, need to back up their performances
