Out: Shirley (hand)

Perfect opportunity for those who believe Shirlos is expendable to see how we really go without him.

 

[RoosterLad]

So if we win by 10 goals it will be time to delist Shirls?

 

[bus24]

Would have to be VB wouldn't it?

Mass grave alongside Pez, Angwin and Fergus, IMO.

Our bench looks ok all 3 can fill a gap back or forward
Hopefully Stevens starts up forward
If we get on top early rest our ruckman at FF and that would really stretch them

Its funny though after round 1 was not looking forward to it but after last week mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Its going to interesting ill pick the Crows but taking my Crow hat off toss of a coin just like most of the games this weekend

 

[macca23]

In other news Port Adelaide omitted Chaplin and brought in Bentley. Bad move imo.

I'm a gee for Chaplin as a player but his form last week wasn't that good.

Personally, I'm glad that he's out for our sakes.

 

[Gets!]

They omitted Chaplin? WTF.

He >>>> Bentley.

 

[mick_foley]

Of course along with Doughty and Massie

Why would you say that, both have been sensational in the last few years? But saying that so has Ian Perrie but he now owns the Crows mania

Agreed. Big future.

Strange choice of game to give him a kick in the arse, but hey, I don't think Pez and Bocky will mind.

 

[Stiffy_18]

Its a given that Wakelin will towel up one of our talls. He always does. I think he will get Sarge this week though.

As in bash (hurt) or shut down?

 

[RoosterLad]

I wouldn't mind it if Wakelin played on Pez.. Perrie can hold his own and Wakelin is getting on a bit now...

 

[Gets!]

Who is Wakelin?

Oh....you mean 'Glassjaw'.

 

[Damp Squarie]

Perfect opportunity for those who believe Shirlos is expendable to see how we really go without him.

Hey dont worry...we'll miss him

 

[Damp Squarie]

Michael "the kid" Doughty & Nathan Van Berlo

Young Mick will need to show his true Panther qualities if we are to get up and win this game...I cannot remember a game where he has ever got the 5 votes (or first best player)

Can anyone else?

Now your chance Dogga- sh ! t we need ya this week mate.

 

[AJ_No.4]

I wouldn't mind it if Wakelin played on Pez.. Perrie can hold his own and Wakelin is getting on a bit now...

I like that match up as well.

In all honestly I think they will bring Chaplin back in as there will be a late change.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Who is Wakelin?

Oh....you mean 'Glassjaw'.

It never gets old.

DT that's a silly comment .....no-one but no-one WANTS any Crows player to fail.

And are you suggesting that if we lose it's because Shirley didn't play and if we win then Shirley is expendible .....because both scenarios are nonsense

 

[WaynesWorld19]

With the exception of being light-on for talls ...that's a pretty good side.

Let's pray for rain

 

[Stiffy_18]

You ain't getting it.

Fine and Sunny with a top of 28 degrees

Sorry, where did I say anyone wants him or anyone for that matter to fail?

I simply said Saturday's game would give 'those who think he's expendable' - ie, those who'd have him replaced in the midfield by Van Berlo/Douglas/Porplyzia - an idea as to how our onball division performs without what he brings to the table.

We had the same thing at Newcastle with Gary Speed. A lot of people wanted him gone, but when Gaz got injured and was replaced by the young gun combo of Jenas and Dyer our central midfield turned into butter.

While one isolated game isn't that great an indicator per se, I am adamant Shirley is one of those players who you don't fully appreciate until they're gone. Saturday will give us a glimpse as to life without Rob in the guts.

And are you suggesting that if we lose it's because Shirley didn't play and if we win then Shirley is expendible .....because both scenarios are nonsense

Not even sure that deserves a response.

 

[Crow-mo]

agree. choco's just playing ducks and drakes
