Unofficial Preview Changes and pre match discussion vs *

[Shagga is all Class]

How the **** did Scott get a call up?

Tucker set a pretty low bar.

Forward pressure to be non existent.

Finbar might play CHB and take Wright on 2nd ruck with Xerri working over Goldy.

* have 3 calls up forward, if you count Caddy.

In terms of structure, Finbar might free up Comben to intercept more and Darling to play permanent forward.

No disrespect to Bailey at all but really hope he is the sub. Really want to see these kids get a good crack at it.

 

[Rod Stroker]

I... just can't get excited about this week. Normally I've got some false hope, but not with both PC and Wardlaw out, and 5 day break after travel.

I expect we'll lose comfortably, happy to be proved incorrect.

PC did not exercise "duty of care" but playing 3 times in Adelaide in a month and then a 5 day break is ridiculous.

So, yeah, our 2 prime time games slotted in around that is not ideal for a battling team.

I wonder if that’s because his shoulders are still ****ed

If his shoulders were still screwed he wouldn’t be laying at all.

Just say it for what it is. He hasn’t been playing to expectation and has had trouble finding the ball and integrating into the team structure.

I’m hoping after last week’s performance and the public slap down of Cornes today that this marks an attitudinal shift within the club that is going to translate into a win tomorrow night, Roo’s by 5 goals

 

[rickety]

24 Clangers and 2 on the full.

So he's the opposite of CD who has 24 out on the full and 2 clangers ... bookends I guess.

 

[Samsquanch]

It's less than 100 minutes until game day. I wonder if anybody who's not banned from doing so has thought of preparing the game day thread?

Last week we had some bloke on a tram eating a seafood lunch while trying to avoid the scrutiny of the South Korean police knock together a dismal effort (it was pretty good for a bloke on a tram I suppose) and we almost could have won the game.

This week it is the arch enemy so I imagine that there's going to be a rush at midnight by a bunch of * haters to show their creativity.

Hoping to see our Duursma take mark of the year over their Duursma before it’s topped by Moose taking a goal square hanger over a pack including Goldy and McKay. Make it happen Euge!

Why? He cant get near it when the ball spends 80% of game time in his half?

And that he is also imbibing, it could only improve his game

 

[Better Loosen Up]

How the **** did Scott get a call up?

Because he's better than duck eggs Tucker

We (I) moved on to heavier shit years ago. Alcohol doesn't cut it anymore when dealing with us.

I thought you campaigners didn't think about us at all

 

[Colby2Sheez]

Really happy with the changes.

In
Maley to get a crack, why not.Good luck.
Phillips I thought was gone but happy to be proved wrong, probably goes to Merrett
Scott to bring more run and his best is at Marvel.

Out
Tucker. Obviously.
PC suspended and Wardlaw injured. Crap luck but we have to move on
Fat Guts stays out. Not even an emergency. Good.
Corr forced to wait after a poor season so far.

Go Roos.

Haha......true. Fixed

I know you've also made reference to Logue and his professionalism. (or lack thereof)

Are you happy he's being made to work to come back?

People complain that we have "no standards" on Colby etc, well to me this is a very obvious one the same posters conveniently overlook.

If I've referenced Logue's professionalism it's been more in jest however I did more seriously mean it re these bits:

• He spends most of his time injured or out of form trying to build fitness
• He is given priority access to the senior side ahead of better form players by virtue of who is he rather than what he does

I do rate him on his day but think he should earn his spot. So yes I agree with the demotion.

You may not think it’s possible but as horrible as magoo is as a defender - he is a much much worse forward.
