Preview R9: Changes vs. Richmond

[FullyBigKPro]

Nank over Edwards is just diabolical....

Whilst Nank may have been a player at some point, he's been totally Nicksed and others have gone past him.

Would have been the PERFECT game to bring Edwards in and give him a crack against mids in his weight division and let Dawson play more as a utility and Rankine/Rachelle more as forwards.

F*** me Nicks is a total dud.

 

[Bovo]

There was talk of Dawson playing in defence. Bond would be the obvious choice if he did.

Dawson into defence and Junior in the middle! That right there is what dreams are made of!

 

[thebirdman 24]

I really hope N Murray doesn't play up forward. It is a waste of time, just go smaller.

 

[Cromulant]

I think Pedlar won’t be dropped. The question is whether Fog lines up for SANFL or Richmond. To be respectful to the Tigers does he really need a run in the magoos? Richmond aren’t exactly a dominant force

Fog is playing SANFL

What dreams would those be ??

[Mr MysteryGuest]

I think ANB will play. He played the game out and it’s a 9 day break.

might as well rest him anyway.

I think it's a bit dumb not resting McAndrew but whatever

 

[BRL121]

Is Cromulant your straight man?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I think ANB will play. He played the game out and it’s a 9 day break.

Would be silly imo.

We need to get him right for when it matters.

Next week

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Next week

That doesn't make sense.

Richmond have a rubbish ruckman and mids. rest him now when it doesn't matter

Who are you dropping for Edwards to come in?

Given Milera’s form off half back, I can’t see that happening unless the Crows are well in front and have the luxury of experimenting.

 

[cmndstab]

I really hope N Murray doesn't play up forward. It is a waste of time, just go smaller.

With Butts out, I expect Murray will just plug into his spot.

 

[Cromulant]

That doesn't make sense.

Rest him against Xerri into a 5 day break. Let ROB get bashed into.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Rest him against Xerri into a 5 day break. Let ROB get bashed into.

play rob against north and we'll lose

 

[SellarStardom]

Let's just agree for once the club has done the right thing with Ah Chee and FOG coming back through the SANFL. Argument is there that ANB should as well.

Out of the bench of Taylor, Peatling, Nank, Pedlar, Dowling, Bond, Curtin and Maley it would be good to see Taylor, Peatling, Dowling, Curtin and Pedlar selected with Nank, Bond and Maley as emergencies. I could live with Nank over Taylor as well

 

[King Elvis]

I really hope N Murray doesn't play up forward. It is a waste of time, just go smaller.

I don't hate it - Tex last year, worth a try.

Keane, Butts, Murray all good enough to be playing SANFL, Borlase not far behind.

If we can't fit the first 3 in, we should trade 1.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

How i think we may line-up...

Dawson down back with a smaller backline. Can always swing N Murray back if needed, but see what he's like as a key forward whilst Fog comes back from injury.

Would have liked Edwards given a decent go against an inexperienced team, but a good side so long as we don’t play any injured players.

Ins: Dawson, N Murray, Nankervis
Outs: Butts, Walker, ANB

B: Michaelanny, Borlase, Laird
HB: Milera, Worrell, Dawson
C: Cook, Berry, Cumming
HF: Rankine, N Murray, Keays
F: Pedlar, Thilthorpe, T Murray
R: McAndrew, Soligo, Rachele
I: Bond, Nankervis, Peatling, Curtin, Taylor
E: ANB, Dowling, Maley

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Pressure on for spots next week as expecf Fogarty & Ah Chee to return.

Assuming Dawson enjoys playing back for a while, reckon Bond most likely to make way for Fog, with N Murray reverting back.

Cumming, Taylor & Pedlar would want to perform or make way for Ah Chee.

 

[jamesclean]

feels like there is zero long-term vision at this club

the #1 priority at all times should be improving our midfield. "what can we do at selection to improve our midfield, as we take on the bottom of the ladder"

play edwards, or play draper? that isn't pretty high on the list?

there better be some serious experimentation or refinement on display

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Fog and Ah Chee back through the SANFL is the right call

They may not end up playing but at least Nankervis and Dowling aren't totally forgotten

I was surprised N Murray made way for Borlase last week. He'll obviously slot straight back in for Butts.

I know Tex is out but no Maley please. Go smaller and back Rankine, Rachele, Pedlar to do some damage deep forward at times.

A day to go but we're on the verge of a half decent week of selection.

 

[Cromulant]

play rob against north and we'll lose

No we wont.

 

[MrBarry]

The fixation on keeping the same structure needs to not continue, Walker going out doesn't automatically need we need to bring in an average tall like Maley.

 

[WeeBlake]

Three talls in the forward line maybe might make sense when they are TT Tex Fog. Maybe.

But it doesn’t make sense when it is TT (injured or out of form) Nurray Maley.

We might be about to find out how bad our horrible long bomb game plan can be.
