Preview Round 1 - changes/preview v. Western Bulldogs

[Scythe94]

So...JVR playing second ruck, ******* hell.

You mean you're not keen for him to go into the ruck and for us to kick it to Brown in a one-on-six?

Cheer louder.

 

[Headless]

Don't think we've tried TMac in there since Gawn went down at the Gabba early last year and with good reason, hes absolutely useless at it. Got absolutely murdered that night when he spelled Grundy.

Need Pedersen.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Should have just played Fullarton ffs. Even if he's crap at least it keeps JVR inside 50

 

[Macka1203]

So...JVR playing second ruck, ******* hell.

hmm if only we recruited a young ruck/forward with some afl experience this offseason

 

[SugarHealey]

As I predicted last week when I saw they moved Jeffo to the backline in the VFL praccy match, they wanted to give TMac and Fullarton F50 time coz they were bringing them in this week..can absolutely see them both playing

Hope both Woey and Tholstrup get a full game but think that is asking for way too much from Simple Simo. More likely thebest case scenario is one of them is sub and the other doesn't play

Tomo for Hore is whatever but I'm fine with it.

Having just seen the lineup put out... i immediately thought, 'someone else is gonna be out'.
I'm wondering if JvR is ok?

Absolutely mind blowing that we've gone to TMac and Ben Brown

only 2 weeks in.

I swear Goody reads BF and we are all being punked.

 

[schmuttt]

These selections are just horrific, like it makes me so mad Goodwin will get to coach the year out. We really need an awful season to rid us of him, Pert and Roffey.

Suffering from severe Falconitis.

 

[SugarHealey]

Is TMAC a defender or FWD?

I don't think he knows.

Stafford and Goodwin read a book on forwardplay, they skipped over the boring bit at the start.

 

[Lord Nev]

What did he say post match?

Don't remember the exact words etc, but remember Goody talking about all the KPP options we had coming back and he just seemed a little bit prickly talking about it, and I remember thinking oooh that doesn't sound good for Shache...

 

[melbun]

TMc cannot jump. So not even Goodwin would give him ruck duties.

 

[Dancing Potato]

TMc cannot jump. So not even Goodwin would give him ruck duties.

He can just do what Grundy did and run directly into the oppo ruck's space and wave his hands around a little. About all he's good for, the useless *

 

[420]

its hard to get excited at those ins re: tmac and bb, how are we this desperate in round 1? hope the dirty dirty Hore goes well

 

[Coasters7]

Thoughts on Salems role with Bowey out? Is last weeks mid game adjustment going to be permanent or is Hore a direct replacement allowing Salem to continue on ball?

 

[Johnny Karate]

Out: May, JVR, Windsor, Viney, Bowey, Howes, Rivers, ANB
In: Jefferson, McDonald, B Brown, Adams, Fullarton, Verrall, Moniz-Wakefield, Smith

 

[dazzledavey36]

Going to have a crack..

Out: Bowey, Spargo, Schache, Laurie, Tomlinson

In: Kozzie, Woewodin, Hore, Brown, McDonald

My thinking is they've brought in Hore to replace Bowey, McDonald to replace Tommo, Brown to replace Schache and getting Woewodin as a full time mid to cover off on Salem who'll go back to a half back.

Happy dayz

Just call me Nostradamus.

 

[dazzledavey36]

Should have just played Fullarton ffs. Even if he's crap at least it keeps JVR inside 50

Yeah in not a fan of this as well.

 

[mrmonkey]

I like the changes, don't think I've seen melts like this since 2013. I feel young again.

 

[Toump Ass]

Speaking of changes where all the avatars gone the * is that.
NM all fixed thanks universe.

 

[Demon 16]

Not saying I like it, but I think I can understand the TMac selection.

How the * BBB is playing has me totally stumped.

 

[mrmonkey]

Also both McDonald's Tom and Oscar playing at AFL level again, really is time warp.

 

[Toump Ass]

Media dept making the font so small that you can't see the atrocities, smart.

The thing that triggers me is that it says "Marty Hore is back!!!" like I'm supposed to know who he is? I'm glad they found him after he left but I've legitimately never heard of the campaigner.

 

[Daemon]

Devils advocate here but maybe they selected Brown because he actually knows how to lead at the football? None of the other forwards seem to know this dying art.
* knows why TMac is in the team though.

danster168 talk me through the BBB selection
