Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

Will Mzungu run H2H with Dal Santo again? He did over there last time (from memory both got brownlow votes).

I think that game was our second meeting and was at Etihad.

Jones will still take Hill in my opinion.

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

This is a huge game. Get a win and we're looking at 4-1 and confidence coming into the tough ones. From there we can build to a Top 4 spot (sounds crazy but I'm serious).

Just want to see the Knife continuing to improve, loving his work the past couple of weeks. Loved the implied pressure in that last game... get Freo scared and we'll roll them easily. So pumped for this game, moreso than any since 2010.

Think he should play on Pav, seems a great match up. We know Gilbo can go with him through the midfield.

I reckon they will send Jones to Barlow
Fisher to Pavlich maybe....

Thor to Sandilands, after 54 hitouts last week

Thor doesn't have the brute strength to compete with Sandilands for a full game.

It's really risky, because of his tendency for brain snaps, but Hulk is a far better choice for actually competing..

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

If we put Milney on top of McEvoy's shoulders we might have a chance of winning some taps.

Hope all of Ben, Kosi and Stanley are rotated on him. Wear him out, make him feel it.

You may be right - Hulk a better match up, provided he's fired up - Hulk has brain fades as well doesn't he

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

interesting that they're talking Fyfe's chances of playing up.


One senses Sammy Gilbert might get the job.

We'll just need to get Lenny to tackle him!

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

We are simply going to have to accept that Sandilands will win a lot of the tap outs. Set up expecting this, recall that under Thomas we did not even try to have a proper ruckman & still won our fair share of clearances.

No doubt our coaching staff have studied who he taps too & have something worked out to shark the ball from them or at least slow the ball down.

Sandilands is a great ruckman but he is no Nick Nat or Kruiser. We should be able to exploit this.

i lol'ed.

54 hitouts... i think he was rucking against a hobbit.

you rate sideshow bob above sandi? If you are talking about his athleticim and roving capabilities, then yeah, i'd agree, but as a package? no.

I am actually really looking forward to the game. I have picked us to win, more out of stubornness than anyhting though.

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

Hayden Ballantyne vs StKilda - Averages 0.75 goals, 12.25 disposals, 2.25 marks per game

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

Scott Watters playing some mind game with Hayden Ballantyne i think...

"Ballantyne comes back, he's a great player. Maybe he's gone past Stephen Milne as the best small forward in the competition"

Yea, only his athleticism and roving capabilities.

If small forward = pest, then yes. Otherwise he's playing mind games. But maybe with Milne not Balla.

If this happens to Fyfe tomorrow night, its safe to say that he will have his 2nd shoulder reconstruction on Monday morning

 

[Rors]

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

I reckon we will try to match up as follows:

Polo - Duffield
Jones - Hill
Hayes - Barlow
Armitage - Mundy
Goddard - Pavlich

Crowley will go to Montagna
McPhee or Ibbotson will go to Fisher - there is no chance in hell that Ross will let Fisher roam free as teams have done in the first 3 games this year!

Not really fussed who takes Ballantyne, someone in Dempster or Geary could tag if needed

I feel Fyfe will be a non-issue as it would be negligent for the Freo medical staff to allow him to play against a team that has some really hard tacklers in Armitage, Hayes & Gilbert... One hard tackle on that hard Etihad surface & Fyfe could be red-vested from the first minute of the game, not worth the risk IMO

Re: Round 4 vs Fremantle Discussion

In a statement released on Monday afternoon, Fremantle said, "the 20-year-old and the club are optimistic about his chances of playing against St Kilda on Friday night".

Fyfe is only 20???

****, that kid is going to be amazing.

Hopefully Ro$$ can alienate him enough so he requests a trade, and he is so pissed he decides he needs to go to Ross's old team as payback

I would be really angry if I was a Freo fan and they were risking playing him. He has years of domination ahead, surely you would have to send him in for surgery to get it sorted.

Has there been a change to the time the teams are announced? It used to be 5:00.

So that Chanel 7 can be first with the news, the news has been delayed until 6.30. ( Part of the latest AFL media deal ).

Sucks, I used to be able to look it up while still at work.. then hear the discussion about it during the drive home.
