Preview Geelong V St Kilda Friday 14th May 2021 750pm @ Colonial

[Seeds]

Mieirs, Evans, Holmes, and in time, Danger may well see the end of Dalhouse as suggested above.

As for Zac Guthrie, I thought he looked ordinary as usual last week but we did win easily so I guess it was an opportunity for positive reinforcement. Perhaps - fanciful thought - his talent lies in possessing no visible athletic advantages or superior skills whatsoever, thereby foiling opposition planning. I'm not sure I've seen a player with less X-factor.

Evan’s has to be the most overrated player on our list right now. he is not ahead of dalhaus and dalhaus probably should not be in the side.

evans has shown nothing yet. He may one day but he ain’t afl level yet.

 

[allrighty]

Probably be playing for a club with a weaker list. He’d be getting a game at 16 other teams.

Ok. And let me check that that is a bad thing for us is it?

 

[catempire]

The other club being?
Doubt he'd get in at Port.

Richmond.

Reckon Clark is ahead of at least 3-4 of these:

If I thought that I’d say that.

 

[Seeds]

Hill has been playing off half-back since the Hawthorn game (to free him up), so even though he's named there, he'll most likely play back and play minimal minutes on the wing

How does hills defensive efforts compare to Clark’s?

 

[Sire of Claude]

Jesse Stringer was a class or two above young Zac. Stringer had to contend with injury and a strong list. Of course when Kolo and O Connor are ready to go Zac will be out again. The big picture is that it's hard to get a spot now which means we've got a bit of depth and blokes will striving to get picked.

 

[frggr]

Shiiiit yeah, the Nark is in!

 

[allrighty]

If I thought that I’d say that.

I was coming at it from our perspective

 

[catempire]

You and I are probably of like mind here. Clark is only missing out because our side is so strong.

What the hell is this from the Saints website? We’ve won four in a row against them - they last beat us in 2016.

 

[frggr]

In the first half when the heat was on, Zuthrie was bloody terrible. He turned the ball over and looked a step behind the others.
He had 6 touches in the first half.
When we were winning by 40+, he got a lot of the ball in last quarter.

He's another Jesse Stringer.

Thankfully one of those touches was a pinpoint kick down the centre that lead to a Jeremy Cameron goal

Whats the issue? They are going for 3 in a row, have won last 2 games, not just against us, you are reading it wrong.

They have won their last 2 games this year. Poorly worded but they mean 3 games on the Trott. Not against Geelong.

Kicked 2 goals on debut, not a bad start i wouldn't have thought.

Three wins for them in a row, they've won the last two weeks

Oh, that makes sense. Poor wording by them. Should be St Kilda is aiming for three wins in a row as they take on Geelong....

I literally had to remind myself that, no, they definitely didn’t beat us last year

Richmond.

Reckon Clark is ahead of at least 3-4 of these:

Names on paper sure, however, a far more credentialed Rocky as well as SPP have been in and out of the side. Ken certainly adopting a hardline stance and drops blokes in the last couple of years. Reckon Clark's weaknesses would see him too dropped at Port as frequently as here.

 

[David the Cat]

The Zuth lovers will be coming.

Nah...the haters have taken all the free spots..ably led by you...

You never were really big on the Guthries.

 

[year of the cat]

Probably 17.

 

[Ratcat]

Shiiiit yeah, the Nark is in!

I reckon he'll go alright although Saints mids are pretty good it'll be a solid test for him so terrific, go Narks'.

 

[year of the cat]

Zuthrie would be very stiff to be dropped after his game. You can't just drop blokes because Clark had 27 possies in one VFL game.

Well.... you can..... I reckon plenty have been dropped off far better games than Zuthrie’s last week.

 

[foxdog50]

2 Big Ruckman in Marshall and Ryder, against Sav n Blitz, bit concerned about that we don't have a genuine ruck in Fort or even Stanley....

Pretty much agree.

 

[winty]

It's funny how folks complain about youngsters getting dropped after a good game, yet they want the same thing to happen to Zuthrie this week.

I don't think it'll be much of a problem. Sav is good at ground level and physical enough to get into em.
