Preview Round 4, 2018: Geelong v St.Kilda - GMHBA Stadium, Sunday 15th April, 4:40PM AEST

[JimmyMann]

******* hell. Our selection committee is shite. It's like they want us to lose.

I think you could be onto something there

 

[TheEnsign]

Cripes White, Gilbo and Mattress all named on the field.

We have to play Hickey, Roma can't do it on his own. Brucey definitely for the chop.

Ideally Coff, Steele and Clark for the other spots. Look to the future.

 

[jonathons11]

Marshall named as the ruck as well so Hickey could well be the emergency.

 

[St BKD]

OK my mood is now ruined. Where is Battle? Bruce on the extended bench? Surely he isn't getting gifted another game because he played a few good games 2 years ago? Enough is enough.

Who the fook is Henry? Goat will kick 15

Some pasty nerd gimp acres will put the kent into retirement it’s a shame Gazza ain’t playin was excited to flick that bald kent away like the bald gypsy he is

 

[TheEnsign]

I think you could be onto something there

Hope not. If we go the Melbourne path of sacrificing team culture and desire to win for high picks we'll languish for a decade.

 

[Sainter88]

Hard to ignore Lonie after his ridiculous outing for Sandringham last week.

Lol I know, most of the time he gets a gig in the seniors he stuffs it hence my disappointment.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Interesting selections. Looking at the team I wouldn't actually be surprised if we'd pulled a surprise and didn't play Hickey and went really short, with Paddy as the only tall marking target up front and Coffield, Steele, Hunter and Lonie being the 4 on the extended bench who keep their spots.

Just go all-out for pressure.

 

[Saint Shags]

Battle not being named is highly surprising given media over last day.
Gilbo actually not surprised really. Gives us a bit of versatility in terms of positioning. Can go back or take Rick duties.
Interesting Austin named. Does that mean that we have another concern with Brown or Carlisle?
Coff better be named...

 

[Gherkin]

Hope not. If we go the Melbourne path of sacrificing team culture and desire to win for high picks we'll languish for a decade.

Picking Gilbert has left me with a bad case of the runs he would’ve been delisted years ago if he was on another list Steele Clarke hickey Lonie in Bruce wright Webster Armo can piss off

No point in being versatile if your useless in every position

Don't watch Lonie too much, you will get dizzy watching him run around in circles all day.

 

[coachnoodles]

The prospect of the Goat kicking a bag from FF is already getting me hard. Even if he doesn’t play a second there Sunday ive got 60 odd hours of fantasizing about it ahead of me

 

[Strahany]

Austin potentially brought in so that Carlisle can play Bruce’s role?

 

[SaintRick88]

Hope the bench is Coffield, Clark, Steele and Bruce. But it won't be as selection committee continue to disappoint.

Where is Battle? Only two of White, Newnes and Gilbo should be playing in HBF roles. Sincs to the wing with Acres (he is a midfielder).

Armo likely to play I'd say but IMO he's doing us a disservice keeping out Steele or Acres from a midfield role.

Sigh.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Seriously what's the point of dropping someone to send a message if you are gonna leave them as emergencies?
Inb4 the final interchange is Hickey, Lonie, Armo, Bruce and I'm sharpening my pitchfork.

 

[Longmembrey]

Gilbert would have 10 kicked on him by danger lmao, ah I remember the days Kennedy kicked 5 on gooblet in one quarter

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

 

[aussierulesrules]

We really need to wait and see what the final team is for this one. A few different ways we could go here.

 

[Gherkin]

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

Brown he actually did alright on danger last year when he was resting up forward

 

[Tyrian Loinstar]

Ffs no Battle

 

[aussierulesrules]

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

Brown did well on him in last year's game.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

Big Coff Dog

 

[tim_saints]

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

Geary, he's the skipper send him to Danger and hopefully do well...might lift the team.

 

[coachnoodles]

OK so who do we play on Danger when he goes forward?

Usually he plays a more attacking role but I feel like sav might be ok strength/speed wise

 

[Mowman]

Are we just gonna ignore the fact that Battle wasn't picked?

Got Arces at full forward don't need Battle LOL
We really are screwed
