Preview Changes and pre match discussion vs Gold Coast in Darwin oh jesus [Out: Pink, Duurs & Jy - In: WiPhi, Laz & Greenwood]

[Flawed Genius]

Out forever: Stephenson

 

[The Nostradamus]

No point playing pink

It’s Finnbar time

You’d imagine Ford will be back in the mix

 

[The acurate one]

Out Archer , Pink, Stephenson , Drury, Sheils and Tucker.

Just the six changes for mine

 

[The Nostradamus]

yep don’t think we need to waste games on shiels

Pump them into wilphil and laz whoever does better tomorrow

 

[justroyal]

Shiels might have been the reason that wasn’t an even bigger blow out though…

His kicking was a rare sighting in the north colours too

 

[Uber Roo]

Great thread title, on an otherwise crap day, this made me laugh

[Nate7]

Anyone else venturing to TBBO for the vfl tomorrow?

 

[Twangler]

Keep it simple:
Out Stephenson, Shiels
In Ford and Bergman
Pink to start as chf. Laz as sub

 

[Hearts to hearts]

I thought after an ordinary start, Shiels was actually pretty influential later.

Stevo out for Ford. Otherwise barring injuries I’d give this team another go based on today. And a different sub. If Pink can help out forward, back or in the ruck that seems worth trying for a whole game.

 

[ansonholt]

Out forever: Stephenson

This might have been his last chance. He's been given plenty. He's 25. Should be coming into his prime and instead he's nowhere near it.

 

[dus]

Out: Sleevo

 

[Spud11]

Bit early for this thread. Mods, please take down.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Pretty happy with the mix against the Saints.

Only two changes for me:

• start Pink forward and make Fisher sub.
• Drop Sleevo for Fordy

 

[muttley45]

Plenty of buckets of soapy water to dunk the balls at training this week, even with no rain, a night game in Darwin is usually an absolute fumble fest, or maybe, all players to trial a glove

 

[Waynesworld]

Out Archer , Pink, Stephenson , Drury, Sheils and Tucker.

Just the six changes for mine

Why Archer? Thought he was good. Also Pink brought some structure to the forward line.

 

[Waynesworld]

But agree on Stephenson. He can be dropped forever. From everything.

 

[Ligma]

Fordy in for Shiels
Bergman in for Stevo but push fisher up to HF

 

[hellas_johnny]

[TheKanga]

Out - Stevo, Shiels (trip might be tough on him)
In - Ford, Greenwood

Pink full game in the fwd line
Drury sub

Fair enough. Just I personally feel Archer besides his wonderful endeavour isn't an AFL footballer. Pink was better fwd, doesn't make him good though.

At days end we're 0/8 and you don't achieve that by having a good side.

Games with Archer in we are 0/1, and he was good yesterday. He does have wonderful endeavour, also he knows how to defend and has some strength to do it, which puts him among my first choice defenders among those available.

Pink I thought was unlucky to be dropped, and the side looked better with another tall forward (big surprise), so again while we have limited options I think he’s also worth persisting with for the structural benefit.

I have to assume Xerri is playing to instructions, given Clarkson always brings his name up. I thought he was pretty good yesterday, and was only disappointed that he was outmarked a fair bit around the ground. The mix of players in the midfield certainly looked better around him.

George Wardlaw. Love the way he plays so much. Can a guy be nominated for the Rising Star three times? If not, hope it’s Colby - he is getting better each week, just wish he didn’t have to also be a one on one defender because that’s not working.
