Preview Round 7 - Lions vs Swans Saturday 4th May 4:35pm GABBA

[Mick Oxlong]

Coming from the board's baccala, that's rich.

A fish dish...well done, you’ve just proved you’re full of it!

 

[Tedeski]

Doesn't mean we have to continually play one of the worst players in the AFL when we have other options. That is like saying "well we are the worst formula 1 team so why not replace our tyres with bricks"

Write the club a letter. Don't cry to me.
The fact you & others are pissed off over it gives me a real happy feeling.

 

[Tedeski]

I think we all need some sleep.
Go Kizza!

There's always a sports fans somewhere having a worse week than we are. It's comforting to know. (language warning )

Am worried our normally sunny dispositioned Ted has simultaneously donned a hair shirt and wigged out.

I am not crying, and why are you in such a mood?

 

[caesar88]

I'm glad to see so many others on here are on my diet as well.

What does Jack provide that we don't already have?

If anyone says 'Leadership' Please explain what this is, and what it looks like on a football field.

If its
* Playing to the best of your ability
* Yelling at other players
* Being fired up
* Starting a fight

I have more 'leadership' than our entire playing group combined.

Maybe horse doesn't like what he sees in the NEAFL.

This is a gift game, I hope he does something with it.

ROK must be thinking, wtf did I do wrong.

 

[scaryness]

Jack in and Rowbottom out... My dislike and disdain is turning towards anger and hatred.

Horse: admits to rebuild time

also Horse: drops 18 year old with promise for out of contract 31 year old.

 

[TheMase]

Yes, righto Goldfish...you keep peddling your repetitive and speculative ********! Love your passion but that’s exactly what it is...speculative ********!

Almost every post is speculative. Plenty of monotonous repetition too.

 

[TheMase]

ROK must be thinking, wtf did I do wrong.

Maybe, but if he used his brain he would realise the Swans team back then was more than just a little better than the current mob (we made a Grand Final in 2014...).

 

[TheMase]

Jack was never dropped from the side. He returned from injury, played two games (kicked 2.1 in the first) and got injured. He has recovered from that injury and thus returned.

 

[Tedeski]

Jack is best 22 this week according to the rebuilders.

 

[CheapCharlie]

Is Jack back in just so we have some seniority on field for guidance?

Surely we arent thinking we can still make finals?

 

[Donza]

Jack is playing cause Buddy isn't.

The Forward line needs some structure and experience .
Considering the lack of with all the younguns .

 

[Donza]

I also hope it does rain. Just keep moving the ball forward ...

Channel 504 from 4.30pm, with Anthony Hudson, Jonathan Brown, Paul Roos and Ben Dixon.

Huddo is a good luck charm!

Actually that's a really decent commentary team.

That's a disgrace, i was really looking forward to Dunstall agreeing with every umpiring decision against us and denigrating everything we do.

Jack is in to organise the forward line and be a calming influence. Anything more is a bonus. The rebuild continues, but you need some sense of order out there under preessure. I don't disagree COR was desrving and robottom stiff. There's going to be plenty of opportinities to get games into all of them before this season is through.

and what is Reid then? I mean surely Reid would be that calming influence.

Also basically you have put the bar at "well as long as Jack does not punch a teammate in the face he is a good inclusion"

Reid is another engigma, thrown back forward back. Shits himeself in front of goal when he has time to think about it. hasn't played much footy in 24months and has his own issues to sort out.

Don't follow the punching team mates reasoning, is he setanta o'halpin now?

 

[Wolftone]

Three ommissions were all reasonable based on last weeks game.

Nothing wrong with the inclusions. Just because you are in rebuild doesn’t mean you have to play younger players at all costs.

If a back was dropped then COR would have been a chance but they didn’t drop one.

Kizza's form before injury did not Warrant a call up. He is sadly past it.

[Wolftone]

How many reds you had tonight Wolfie?

Just because the ll's didn't work? None actually. But Jack does not deserve selection. We will only get worse not better. I'd have persevered with Rowbottom and thrown him in at the deep end. Straight into the guts. But Horse hasn't the guts to do tgay. Other coaches have in the last few seasons with more successes than failures and this bloke is a first rounder

Oh right we're all about skills now.

My bad.

That explains the Jack decision
