Preview North v Tiges round 11

[Snake_Baker]

Word is that Cotchin is expected to return.

 

[mouncey2franklin]

They should account for us easily, bookies have us at 4s, but I have a strange, optimistic feeling about this one.

We seem to play the Telstra Dome a lot better than other grounds, whereas the Tigers prefer and play better at the 'G.

A Friday night home game as well, should be fun.

first time this season i am looking forward to a game.

 

[Waussie]

Dropping froggy is where I stopped reading - he’s the future

Will be interesting on who gets dropped/ comes in.

Hall and Ahern to come in hopefully

Ahern got injured. Keep Thompson, ditch one game wonder McDonald

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Out: Turner
In: Hall

Hall and Higgins to rotate off the HFF.

If we want to utilise Hall to his fullest potential he needs to play as a centre square mid. He isn’t a wingman.

 

[kangafruity]

Dumont is too slow to be a wingman. Not to mention he has been ordinary all year.

You cant be serious, he would have been in the top 5 in the B& F up until 2 weeks ago. I admit a couple of quiet weeks but he certainly hasn't been alone there

 

[kangafruity]

Honestly, the kid just doesn't have the conditioning yet. Put him on a similiar timeline to other big bodied inside mids like Kennedy, Watson & Cunnington.

I have no doubts that he will be a gun though.

I looked at him yesterday and thought he reminds me of a young Chris Judd. Needs a bigger body and I hope he gets there. New coach new regime

Further proof that the "play the kids for development" mentality is complete bullshit.

 

[Steele7]

Just hope Scamper plays the kids and not his favourites.

 

[year of the roo]

In - Hall, Scott
Out - LDU, Turner

 

[The Nostradamus]

We need to pump games into LDU he’s the last player that would go out

Did his shoulder.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Did his shoulder.

[Snake_Baker]

Lynch with a corky. Should play.

 

[Gasometer]

I said the same thing after I saw his first training run with us!

Unfortunately so far the only resemblance is the poor kicking on the run and shoulder tape.

I still have confidence it will 'click' for him at some point - you can see yesterday he was running to the right spots, was looking to link into the play.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Sugar on Dusty

No

Macmillan on Dusty.

Macmillan on Dusty.

Why is dusty going to the vfl next week?

 

[sbdan]

Just hope Scamper plays the kids and not his favourites.

Scamper looks like a smart cat.

Potential big let down for our guys this week. A lot of emotional energy spent this weekend.

 

[Moti]

Can’t see any big changes. Might take a couple of weeks to get any influence from the coaching change.

And so is their No 1 (available) Ruckman Ivan Soldo, Goldy won't sleep well all week

When he picked up 26 possessions including 15 contested against the Lions in Round 2 he absolutely looked ready. Young players will never be consistent week in week out but senior footy will be better for his development than VFL.

 

[DesertRoo]

Macmillan on Dusty.

Ziebell will go to dusty and do well.

 

[AdmiralBenson]

I don't watch VFL so no idea on who comes in or deserves to.

Personally i thought our effort was there yesterday.

We always are competitive when we turn up - we are a solid team at our best and switched on.

Problem for many years has been the inconsistency in effort and lack of any repercussions to players, especially seniors.

So I'll back in Shaw for now and we can look at his results in time for 2020 with a better viewpoint.
