Preview Swans v Pies Covid Breachers

[The King!]

Hey after a few schooners it’s alright lol

no way, second worst menu item after fillet o fish

been about 6 years since i had it so something new may be worse

 

[BloodySwan]

Happy with all 4 ins. Keen to give the 3 another go and pumped for Wicks.

Horse definitely has his favorites though. Blakey has been a passenger for months and only just got dropped while Clarke has been good for 4/5 last matches but gets dropped after 1 poor performance.

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Clarke is your ultimate “almost” player. We need to move on. Let’s get some better skilled players in.

Like Thurlow?

 

[brad cooper]

Jeremy Sharp in for GC he’s the guy I really liked last year

Just for a reference point from here on in would you have selected him ahead of Stephens or Gould?

 

[bedford]

maccas apple pie is f’ed horrid

All their food is s**t

Almost a bigger dud

 

[The King!]

gray was a one year punt, Clarke two for bugger all

lewie taylor is the worry, 3 year deal cant even go close to cementing a spot when the cupboard is empty, overweight, slow, ordinary

who gave him 3

 

[Millky95]

Gray is on 2 years

 

[SGBeach]

rotation policy this season.. all get a chance.. even Thurlow
Good to see Bell, Ling, ET get another week.. Stephens in for another go.. Warner an emergency and great to see Wicks in!!
I reckon Amartey next week

 

[The Gong]

I'm going with the unpopular opinion that Thurlow can offer us something as a more purely defensive HBF, not so much as a rebounder. He hasn't had a heap of opportunity and I'd like to get another look at him.

agree, deserves a few weeks, may as well see like we have with gray taylor clarke etc

 

[bedford]

There is a reason 3 duds got the Kyber Pass from their clubs. How an absolute dud like Clarke got the famous number 4 is beyond me.

Hey Kapers , why so angry

 

[Tedeski]

well perhaps family grief is quite different from a player's form?

Ben Brown brokenhearted after loss of unborn twin

North Melbourne forward Ben Brown's wife Hester has spoken about the loss of their unborn twin

www.afl.com.au

Oh I had no idea about that.
Poor Ben Brown.
No wonder. Stuff footy mate, just worry about your family for now.
How come I never saw that news plastered everywhere.

Harley thought it was a contract for Elijah.

Oh god, please don’t put Thurlow on the Gray/Taylor merry-go-round.

Clarke played 3 or 4 solid games, then gets dumped for Thurlow?

Proves that life ain’t fair.

 

[Kapers]

Hey Kapers , why so angry

I just like Clarke.

Don't like it when players are called duds.

I'll criticise his kicking and composure, just don't like when we write off players completely.

He is on the list and has shown some of his best games this year. As long as he is on the list he can make something of his career.

 

[Tedeski]

Watch him go straight out

he will get caught and to slow for the game , reason he hasn’t played in while

So that leaves a list of 18 players for us to pick from.
You've written off that many players. I agree with some but fair go.
Maybe Buddy has done more damage to our list than even I first thought.
Only 3 more years before we xan start a real rebuild I guess because Thurlow, Gray & Taylor type players are all we can fit in our cap for the next 3 years.

it might be close to right though that the list only has that many keepables

but right now we have to pick some others each week

I didn't think Thurlow was bad before but definitely not great. If he's improved I can't see him being dropped. More of a statement about where our list is at though

 

[RW]

*4 day breaks.

I feel that Eddie will whinge about this if we win...

 

[The King!]

Oh I had no idea about that.
Poor Ben Brown.

eddie didnt say anything about it

but yeah poor fella

 

[Punts]

lets not jump on the clarke merry go round

Grey get 2 years or 1?

 

[The King!]

Grey get 2 years or 1?

2 Millky95 is right,

 

[Punts]
