Preview R22: Changes v Fremantle - Oscar McDonald to debut; Dawes, Prince, Brayshaw out

[youngbear]

Was just coming to post this. I'm not sure he'd be ready yet. Fitzy and King would be wondering who they have to blow to get a gig.

Fitz yeah, but King can't coz of the stupid rookie list rules.

Yeah, ok.

 

[youngbear]

Dawes out! Dawes out! Dawes out!

[Girthquake]

Oscar McDonald named in forward line, hell of a first game.

 

[booshboy]

Ding dong the witch is dead.

 

[CWaffles]

So Harmes isn't being rested?

Wait and see who actually travels

 

[Theseventhhamster]

No Dawes or Lumummummba. Damn I'll have to watch.

 

[schmuttt]

Dawes out! Dawes out! Dawes out!

the old 'ankle' appears to have struck down both Lumumba and Dawes

Ball won't get down there.

Oscar is def playing and my man muss will be too. Gawn's looking tired and he's going to need a chop out against Sandi and co. I reckon Riley's a lock too given Freo's big mids. There's three for three. If Harmes goes out then one of the other shitfish in Bail or Jones.
So we're Tyson, Fitz and Toump picked at Casey?

 

[Tempy Tiger]

We are gonna get drummed. I'd leave Nev at home. He's had a rough year. We should put him in cotton wool got the rest of the season.

 

[stabler]

I can't find anything negative to say about those ins.

"“It was very exciting and he said I would play in the backline and do what I have done for the past 15-odd games in the VFL. [He told me to] keep [doing] what I’ve done to get me into the team and do that on the weekend.”

But he's named forward? Interesting.

Anyway, I heard from someone who went to Melbourne function, apparently Jade Rawlings said that Oscar is the 'most exciting player on the list'.

 

[DeesFan]

Oscar named in the forward line .. his first procession will most likely be in the defensive 50m ..

I shouldn't imagine him getting many opportunities to mark inside 50 .. going to one of those days ..

One million bucks worth of premiership talent rolls out of the Melbourne side.

While the one kid who joins them is already better than both combined.

Yep, but think of the off field goodness the Collingwood pair provide. You can't put a price on that. Dawes can philosophize with the forwards whilst Harry O gives the backs a lecture on cultural diversity. After all that they can train some football for half an hour.

Ouch... Damn that reality stick hurts

 

[Theseventhhamster]

You know they are super excited to see OMac out there to be giving him a game when he's physically not ready to compete. From the little I've seen he's a better prospect than his bro.

Nev is hard as a cats head.. he will be fine

Much like Stretch.

Unfortunately his head isn't so hard.

 

[Cannon82]

I think his head is pretty hard, but his brain needs to stop bouncing around inside his skull.

 

[Jack London]

Poor Jamar. If they're not keeping him on next season, its extraordinarily poor form to give him two months as an emergency and then throw in Spencer ahead of him when we decide to play a second ruck. If he is playing next year, then play on.
