Preview Changes vs Gold Coast, Sat 12 April, Barossa (Gather Round) - SWING THE AXE

[tazaa]

B: Corr Logue Archer
HB: Goater Comben Daniel
C: McKercher Davies-Uniacke O’Sullivan
HF: Simpkin Darling Parker
F: Curtis Larkey Zurhaar
R: Xerri Sheezel Wardlaw
I: Kostanty Powell Phillips Duursma
S: Scott
E: Hardeman

That to me is our best 23.

This weekend there is no Wardlaw, Archer and Goater with LDU, Simpkin, Parker and Xerri all carrying injury concerns.

Can’t see how we’re gonna be able to keep up with a red hot Gold Coast.

Clarko has eyeballed all the players... "you blokes need to understand something. It's not just the media who have had enough. It's not just the fans who have had enough.. I've had a bloody nuff! Pathetic. You blokes playing for anything? Doesn't even look like you're playing for yourselves!"

Simpkin, with a tear in his eyes addresses the group next to clarko. Says its time. If you don't bust your gut this week, then you're out next week. He will have input into who isn't putting in.

Bailey Scott, RHJ and a few others start to sweat... Parker comes right up to them "you know you blokes are who we're talking about. Thank your captain you're in this week. Clarko and me wanted you out. Better prove something this week coz i didn't travel across the country to play with concrete grade plodders"


a line in the sand was drawn. Culture was set. Standards were re set...

North by 30 points.

It's just damn unfortunate that we don't have enough AFL-ready, 100%-of-the-time driven players to actually fill the senior team. The Archer/Simpkin/Wardlaw attitude is sorely lacking. Hence, even a win in this game means jack shit in the long run. When I said we had a team again, I may've been a tad premature

Let’s just say if there’s a late out this week it was due to my shoulder

****in told ya Duursma will play.

 

[Frank Thring]

Nostrils gets his wish........finally

 

[DuckYeah]

Was hoping to see Zurhaar on the pine.

Chadwiko is a poor judge of VFL form.

 

[Outtatym]

Whitlock unlucky imho

That shoulder was due to you cranking too much after Scott was dropped

 

[zoomba23]

Whitlock unlucky imho

Not in isolation, but in the context of Logue somehow keeping his spot, yeah

 

[Moti]

Duursma the extra tall forward it seems.

Otherwise, don't mind the changes, the Scott dropping is an important message.

 

[King Corey]

Congratulations to Daniel and Logue for sharing this week's shit performing senior player omission immunity prize.

I came to the thread for this exact post.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Logue should be better for the run. Whitlock and RHJ need to go and build some confidence in the VFL. Scott omitted is a statement.

We are kind of stuffed if Jy doesn’t get up, looking at those emergencies. Or even more stuffed.

 

[zoomba23]

****in told ya Duursma will play.

To be fair, I don't know if many of us said he wouldn't. Just that he shouldn't

 

[pitchster]

Oh god dont even have to read anything in here to know Nostrils is up and about. This is the culmination of his lifes work on bigfooty come to fruition here.

 

[Ashley B]

Nostra on the massive news tonight

 

[Chadwiko]

I like the 'outs'.

I'm less enthusiastic about the 'ins'.

Consider me absolutely confused by Duursma's inclusion. Didn't think he worked hard enough at VFL level last week to earn it.

Fisher gets the call up after starting the season in the VFL, and despite not playing VFL at all last week? Okay, sure. But what message is that sending to guys like Phillips who was close to BOG in the VFL last week?

FOS I am obviously totally fine with.

Well, here's hoping Duurs and Fisher make the most of this opportunity.
