Preview Preview R6: Changes vs. GWS Giants

[Jeffcrowe]

Berry, meh.

Had to pick him as need to get more competitive in centre square -+ he’s fit and will work hard in defensive transition

 

[GreyCrow]

Berry is an non inspiring move.

Crouch a late out?

 

[MrBarry]

Absolutely no issues with the changes, I'm still pro Berry and Scholl is total wank.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I like Curtin on the wing, I hope he gets in amongst it

I’d like to see it but can’t see it full game , I reckon Nank will start there

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Decent changes I guess.

Curtin to a wing to rebalance our forward line.

More forward pressure is needed this week. We let Geelong run out all the way to the wing with zero pressure.

Berry to sub.

Rob out next week if he dishes up more of the same.

Maybe Draper and Taylor play forward and Nank sub, Curtin wing but I reckon that’s the most unlikely

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I wouldn't be against Draper subbing.
Looked tired last week.

What about forward role with 70% TOG ?

Feels like his electric speed could be a weapon up there around the talls especially when kept fresh

 

[Jeffcrowe]

So Nank to the wing, Taylor in, Berry sub.

Despite carrying ROB for another week, fair changes.

Definitely Nank to wing I think

Berry might start , think we may need him TBH

 

[maxlilly]

Had to pick him as need to get more competitive in centre square -+ he’s fit and will work hard in defensive transition

It seemed strange that when Crouch was out, Berry didn't get a game but now he does with Peatling out

 

[ams4crows]

I reckon Draper will be Sub and Taylor will get a full game

 

[Mutineer]

Umpires
Andre Gianfagna (27), Jacob Mollison (32), Brent Wallace (33), Martin Rodger (37)

 

[Velvet George]

You reckon he’s arrogant ? Haven’t noticed that but don’t listen to him often

Bloody oath, blaming everyone bar himself and then at the B&F speech having a go at critics when clearly he made mistakes

 

[Velvet George]

Umpires
Andre Gianfagna (27), Jacob Mollison (32), Brent Wallace (33), Martin Rodger (37)

So we’re going to get Rodgered?

 

[Mutineer]

 

[Scorpus]

Umpires
Andre Gianfagna (27), Jacob Mollison (32), Brent Wallace (33), Martin Rodger (37)

Two of these guys I've never heard of which is a really good sign

 

[whitey_1975]

Crouch a late out?

You might hope. Those 2 in our midfield spells disaster

 

[maxlilly]

So we’re going to get Rodgered?

Again

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I reckon Nank will play wing

Curtin mainly forward and some wing

Second half may be different however

We usually play mostly 3 wingmen... who will be Cumming, Curtin & Nankervis.

With Berry likely to come on as sub, may move one of the other midfielder to a wing like last week & Curtin up forward... but depends who is subbed off.

 

[Geoffa32]

What about forward role with 70% TOG ?

Feels like his electric speed could be a weapon up there around the talls especially when kept fresh

He had that role last week.

Struggled a bit, gassed.

Maybe the longer break will be a difference.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

He had that role last week.

Struggled a bit, gassed.

Maybe the longer break will be a difference.

Expect Draper may be the player subbed off or on.

 

[CrowBloke]

Murray back,

I'm happy to see Sholl out but, geez, Nicks is slow to respond to underperformance
AND
we gotta wait for at least another dud game from RoB before he is dropped.

Berry IN surprised me. Has he been tearing it up in the SANFL?

 

[BunjiMac]

Not terrible changes, but what is super annoying and Nick's biggest issues is he's such a slow learner.

How many times must we see Sholl to realise that he can't play under pressure and in big games. It's like Nick's forgets this at the beginning of each season only for the same scenario to play out.

You could say the same about ROB.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Umpires
Andre Gianfagna (27), Jacob Mollison (32), Brent Wallace (33), Martin Rodger (37)

Andre Gianfanga...

 

[CrowBloke]

Not terrible changes, but what is super annoying and Nick's biggest issues is he's such a slow learner.

Calling Nicks "a slow learner" is an insult to slow learners.

How many times must we see Sholl to realise that he can't play under pressure and in big games.

Apparently, MANY times.
Cannot stick a tackle.
Gets brushed off the ball when contending, rag-dolled when caught.
Disappears when the pressure is on.

It's like Nick's forgets this at the beginning of each season only for the same scenario to play out.

I wish it was only "forgets". It's bloody-minded stubbornness.
Nicks believes that Sholl, and Milera, and ROB are best-23, regardless of actual performance, based on how they used to play and/or how they train.
It's killing us.

You could say the same about ROB.

Yep, sadly.

 

[spenze]

Don't hate it. ROB probably on his last chance I'd say.

Bit of inside info but I have heard Rob is...

 

[Slime Roy]

We usually play mostly 3 wingmen... who will be Cumming, Curtin & Nankervis.

With Berry likely to come on as sub, may move one of the other midfielder to a wing like last week & Curtin up forward... but depends who is subbed off.

Might need to nurse Crouch through as hes been on low game time
