Preview Round 13 Swans vs Tigers

[Adnico26Parker]

FIVE changes

 

[Adnico26Parker]

 

[Chaisa]

That is appalling treatment of Mitchell AFAIC. There were much worse.

 

[Kbroome]

Atleast we have all our best defenders available

 

[caesar88]

The problem is that the big 3 should be top 5 in our BnF so they should be performing at a higher level than role players which is the current level they are all playing at.

Sheldrick is pretty much outperforming Rowbottom is all categories

Except pressure. Which goes back to the problem for Sheldrick, he doesn't really have a particular thing he is great at, that he can stake his spot in the team on. At this rate it is finding the ball, and the way he's using it, that's almost a net negative.

 

[Kbroome]

Watch Hanily be sub even though it should be Adams imo

 

[Punts]

Roberts needs a run in the 2s

Mitchell that is unfair

 

[caesar88]

So Cleary is inexplicably demoted to sub

And then inevitably struggles when he comes on and we are 10 goals down

And then is dropped

What the actual eff

 

[Punts]

All scapegoats really

How Lloyd keeps getting a game is a joke on cox

 

[kickthething]

Cleary rorted…idk, seems piss weak to me. Lloyd ffs

 

[Punts]

Goood to see Harry back

If you regulate for the fact that Sheldrick has been sub in the sample size, or just remove them

PA Rowbottom 24
PA Sheldrick 18.66

Tackles Rowbottom 7
Tackles Sheldrick 6

Small sample size but Sheldrick is starting to put up more numbers than Rowbottom but also have similar (not exactly the same defensive work)

 

[caesar88]

Bice and Lloyd should buy lottery tickets ASAP

 

[Kbroome]

Cleary rorted…idk, seems piss weak to me. Lloyd ffs

Not playing him in the middle so let him develop in the VFL.

Yes it sucks but its best for him as playing him a small forward exclusively isn't doing much

 

[DAZZA_75]

Roberts needs a run in the 2s

Mitchell that is unfair

Saying Robert’s is out with illness

Agree on Mitchell being dropped is tough

 

[Olian]

Florent still not good enough to get back. Will be traded at the end of the year.

 

[Donza]

I like the changes.
2 forced . 3 on form.

 

[Punts]

Florent still not good enough to get back. Will be traded at the end of the year.

Agree

He will be up for sure

No. It’s not. Development is better at the level…particularly with our vfl side.

 

[legend166]

How on earth did Bice keep his spot?

 

[Bloods86]

Goood to see Harry back

Favourite player, but should have had a full game in reserves

 

[Punts]

Must be a little scared of dropping Lloyd

If you are talking about Rowbottom in basically the worst form of his career and Sheldrick who was promoted to the senior side because he was supposedly in great form, well then that's not much of an endorsement of Sheldrick.

FWIW Rowy has a clear role and he does it. Sheldrick does not do that role. So the comparisons are hardly fair IMO.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I see it was all Mitchell and Cleary’s fault we lost by near 100 lol

Soft Deano

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Bice and Lloyd should buy lottery tickets ASAP

Bice i have no issue with getting a continued run at it and he has only played a handful of games.

Lloyd is the one that should of went this week he is not going to be part of anything beyond this season.
