Preview Changes and Preview Thread for Round 4, 2026 vs Richmond @ MCG

[Scholz Supremacy]

You’d have to expect quite a few changes after today.

Richmond surely win this now. They’ll be desperate to get their first win on the board, they’re at home and they’ll know for a fact that they can certainly beat us.

 

[TazD]

Unchanged for the lols.

 

[PatientMental]

What we need is a 31 year old plodder to come in and slow us down further.

 

[Powerade 08]

BZT and Wines prob

 

[Visenfest]

Lukosius for Zadow.

Mead for Bergman (if fit).

Mackinlay for Lorenz or Moraes.

Find a spot for Marshall if fit.

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

Out: Ratugolea, Mackinlay, Brodie, Mead and Wehr.

In: Marshall, Moraes, Wines, Bergman and Zadow.

Move Luko to the wing and have Zadow as the small.

 

[StueyDaDew]

Tigers will be licking their paws.

 

[MALTSY]

Out: Ratugolea, Mackinlay, Brodie, and Mead.
In; Marshall, Bergman, Wines, Zadow

Lai was one of the few positives from the game and will build his tank with more game time at this level.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Very winnable. Tiges are really bad too with a list of outs as bad as ours. Need a response.

 

[JUSTWORK]

Very winnable. Tiges are really bad too with a list of outs as bad as ours. Need a response.

All of games this year have been very winnable, and we've lost two of them.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Out: Ratugolea (inj), Sweet, Mead, Brodie, Wehr, Mackinlay
In: Marshall, Visentini, Bergman, Wines, Moraes, Zadow

We won't make six changes but aside from replacing Rat which is an injury necessity all of these changes would either make us better, give some experience to someone with more upside, or both.

 

[all seeing eye]

Wines , Bergman, Marshall?, Zadow in
Take your pick of ones to drop, DBJ on thin ice.

How did BZT play for the maggies?

Crap hes miles off.

figured.

if Jones and a repackaged marshall are getting games in front of you.

 

[Troncs10]

How did BZT play for the maggies?

Got torched, that back injury last year stuffed him up big time.

 

[danman69]

People say Visentini offers little around the ground but there is something to work with at least. No upside with Sweet, get him out.

 

[Nemisis]

Jo Berry needs to be dropped. His kicking and decision making was terrible today.
OUT: Berry, Wehr, Brodie.
IN: Marshall, Morias, Wines.

Gives us nothing

 

[Capital Power]

You'd think it would be just the players potentially returning from injury - Wines, Marshall, Bergman? The side is disorganised enough as it is, it makes sense to try and stablise the team list as much as possible.

Marshall for Rat (inj), Wines for Mead, Bergman for Wehr. There is a case for dropping others, but i'm not sure it would achieve much. From all reports the 2s were woeful as well.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Lol Moraes for Mackinlay is exchanging piss for piss but I'm still for it.

 

[Portmagpies36]

People say Visentini offers little around the ground but there is something to work with at least. No upside with Sweet, get him out.

Neither of them are up to it

 

[Lefti93]

This all could have started the night after we went out in straights to gws in 2023. With everything that followed in terms of trades and drafting. This could've been the start of our 3rd season of our rebuild instead of just starting. People questioning why we were all so pissed off back then, this is why you morons.

 

[240volt]

Mead should never play another AFL game for us again.
