Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion vs. Adelaide (R22, Sat 17/08 4:35pm AO)

[Thatsmyname]

I would have thought the repercussions of this week’s VFL bye would not be seen until next week?

In hindsight that foresight might serve us well but we also have Hinesight and that's a sight to be seen

 

[Kirby]

The Crows board are more down on their team than our board is on ours.

 

[Yidaki]

He's the only one that can chop out Grundy, and Grundy is the one we can't afford to kill, there's no good options left

So leave our defence exposed? With Tex and Fog? Roughhead is our best defender. Defence is where he needs to play.

No arguments but we can't run Grundy into the ground either

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Adelaide are going with the GWS trick.
Playing talls.

 

[TradeDraft]

Playing Roughead as a Forward could Cost Collingwood the Game vs Adelaide

 

[TradeDraft]

Noble in, Keane an emergency. Crows going with 2 rucks which has worked against us

We must be Desperate to have Keane as Emergency. Wilson might be 1 next week

 

[Yidaki]

Just get a plus 190cm midfielder to chop Grundy out for a bit like what the Tigers have done.

 

[TradeDraft]

Jesus that VFL bye has murdered us, going in blind with half a list

Why they need to have a Reserve Comp so this Crap does not Happen

Isn't Wills our 2nd Ruck?

 

[TradeDraft]

Will Crow fans Cheer for Grundy

 

[Yidaki]

Isn't Wills our 2nd Ruck?

Yeah he will do.

Wilson is Cat B so would have to be elevated via a LTI. What are the chances of that happening

I am not a gambler but can you put a bet on a player to be BOG people?

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Hoping it rains cats and dogs on Saturday.

The Crows board are more down on their team than our board is on ours.

On paper we are still significant better. Even with our outs.

 

[Kirby]

Are you tipping us to win?

 

[Adz]

Are you tipping us to win?

With ease. I wouldn’t be going over and staying in 5 star luxury otherwise.

 

[Kirby]

With ease. I wouldn’t be going over and staying in 5 star luxury otherwise.

What game are you playing?

You never tip the Pies!

 

[jackcass]

Keane as emergency is fascinating.

Form wise, Keane's probably the form KP type at VFL level so if they're picking a tall he's probably the logical selection.

 

[CFC2010]

You’re only staying in 5 star luxury because you’re still under police protection Gobbo.

 

[unplugged]

Should've just called this one Pre-match Discussion. Had the changes nailed from the get go.

 

[barrackers]

Great to see Keane named an emergency, well deserved and a fantastic reward.

Hoping it rains cats and dogs on Saturday.

Did you see us early in the game against Richmond when it was raining...???

 

[swoop42]

Bad luck for Daicos but happy to get another look at Noble.

If his first game was a baptism of fire then this is something of a homecoming given it wasn't that long ago he was running around at SANFL level so hopefully that will hold him in good stead.

Hope we play him on the wing.
