Unofficial Preview Changes and pre-match discussion vs St Kilda

[gustev]

Thank god our spirit is strong. That's great.

 

[The Nostradamus]

I agree and it’s not like for like but maybe Harvey takes his spot

coop has to come back in only missed due to illness after being in good form
team gets belted
there should be no reason he is not straight back in

We'd have been belted regardless of Cooper playing.

BUT yes, he was in good form and regularly scoring.
Leading the line like no one else.
Should be right back in... and re-signed imo!

Is that a sea shanty?

 

[viccles]

Waiting for 2-3 changes max

 

[Chadwiko]

Waiting for 2-3 changes max

3 is what it'll be.

Partly because there's literally no one else healthy and pushing for selection.

 

[Chadwiko]

Also waiting to hear news on Jy.

 

[DuckYeah]

If this team isn’t changed significantly, players are not dropped and twos form is ignored.. HOW?? I just cant. I want answers as to why? Did anyone talk to Clarkson at training? Someone ask him next time you are there Chadwiko giantroo

 

[Kanga Glory]

Is that a sea shanty?

there's a restaurant in Lakes called sea shanty

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Thank god our spirit is strong. That's great.

“Our”? Not mine.

 

[Arathrawn]

Can't wait to see Fisher back

 

[The Nostradamus]

Can't wait to see Fisher back

at most he would be named an emergency

with a sunday game we have to name the extended bench

could easily just be no outs at this stage and larkey, wardlaw and cooper back in

are among five potential inclusions in North Melbourne's extended squad for Sunday's match against St Kilda.

Larkey has been named after completing two full training sessions as he recovers from persistent knee soreness following a PCL injury.


Wardlaw has been added to the squad, having played two consecutive VFL games after his return from a concussion. The hard-hitting midfielder was among the standouts in the reserves' rollercoaster loss to Geelong at Arden St, collecting 19 disposals and laying nine tackles.

will miss Sunday's Marvel Stadium match against the Saints due to a knee injury.

Big forward Finnbar Maley has been omitted this week.

The Kangaroos will name their selected team at 5pm on Friday.

 

[Arathrawn]

at most he would be named an emergency

with a sunday game we have to name the extended bench

could easily just be no outs at this stage and larkey, wardlaw and cooper back in

It was a bit tongue in cheek mate.

The way we've picked our side this year it wouldn't surprise me if he was the only change.

I would love to see Cooper, Payne, Wardlaw back in.

 

[tazaa]

Hearing Jy left the track early.
Also Payne not doing enough in front of the coaches to get a game. Madness

Cooper not guaranteed to automatically return but hoping this is just bs

This really is Russian roulette

 

[The Nostradamus]

Didn’t think we’d drop Finnbar first over Dawson

But both probably end up out anyway

For larkey and wardlaw
Then coop has to come in for RHJ although Simpkin out so maybe he stays sub

 

[BrownPaperBag]

I don’t think Dawson necessarily deserves dropping his mate down back however

 

[showusyacunningt]

If Logue plays at the expense of getting games into Will Daws....

How do I get into one of those teams meetings with the football dept?

 

[The Nostradamus]

If Logue plays at the expense of getting games into Will Daws....

It will likely happen and no issue with it tbh

Dawson does not look ready

 

[viccles]

Of course Logue and Daniel are still in

 

[giantroo]

 

[showusyacunningt]

It will likely happen and no issue with it tbh

Dawson does not look ready

Has been better than Logue even with putting aside where they're at in their careers

 

[DuckYeah]

 

[BrownPaperBag]

It will likely happen and no issue with it tbh

Dawson does not look ready

I think he’s done some good things, as opposed to logues shitful efforts
