Changes for first final

[frenchconnection]

Barring a late change, the only way this really makes sense is if Simmo is hoping to capitalise on the Dogs' lack of tall defenders. Still think he might just be drunk though

Very strange decision - that makes 8 talls. Aren't the Bullies a fast running smaller side so why would you bring in Brown for Jetta? The Gods aren't shining upon us as we could have done with Jetta's speed. As someone else said they must be worried that Lycett could break down during the match. If Lycett doesn't come up then I guess Nelson will come in, which will really mean Brown in for Lycett and Nelson for Jetta. Well Yeo it's your time to shine as if on song he's the one player with a bit of X factor. Please don't go MIA!!

Maybe they are giving Lycett till 4pm tomorrow , if he is okay to play Brown goes out Nelson or Duggan comes in . It's all legal

 

[frenchconnection]

If we go in as named, where does Brown actually play? We already have 3 talls down back, 2 rucks, and two KPF (plus the resting ruck). Odd

Perhaps Brown has had a new lease of life, and he's our new wingman

You sure?

 

[new breed]

You sure?

It's illegal when you bring someone in from outside the 22 plus emergencies .

 

[frenchconnection]

Well shit. I'd rather McGinnity. But hey, we were complaining about Giles a few weeks ago. Brown to kick five resting in the forward pocket and be our new hero.

McGinnity is injured anyway so no way he could have played.

Why not then leave him as an emergency, and if Lycett is no good by tomorrow then bring him in as a late in.

 

[whatis]

Now that Barrass has popped up as an intercepting marking beast, Simmo is gonna unleash plan A. One lock down defender (Brown), one tall intercepter(Barass) and one tall runner / one on one (schoey). Leaving darling leading up the wings and McGovern Forward...
Time to **** shit up

I love plan A! All those years of bombing the ball forward are about to pay off. Genius.

Makes more sense but we like playing silly buggers maybe .

Every which way I look at it, it doesn't make sense. The only reasoning that I can come up with is that Lycett is half cooked so in case he goes down during the game, Brown can take over. But even that doesn't really make sense either.

 

[Double the Fist]

The main training was Tuesday night so I would imagine Jetta reinjured his calf then , tough for WCE because he had become a real Xfactor .

Not a very useful x factor. He has done some nice things, but still hasn't really impacted any games, let alone recent ones.

 

[Double the Fist]

Friends time to get with the contemporary ways. All this needless jostling and umming about flimsy old positions. Positions are dead and dusted, any coach will tell you that. What you're seeing here is a club at the forefront of a new era of strategic manipulation. We've no heed for locales:
We're releasing the Gov.

Thats nice. THen what the hell are we doing with Brown in the side.

?

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Brown has finals experience. He'll play back and pinch hit in the ruck. Lycett forward all game pretty much just standing there to get the ball to ground or taking a defender out of the space for JK.

Brown can also fit into the web allowing Gov forward. Or Wellers to the wing.

 

[VogonProsthetnic]

I'm totally confused by your team. Last year you smashed everyone with a short defence ran them of their feet and filled to holes with awesome team defence. Why change?

 

[bUCKET__]

I think Brown is thinking of joining the dogs via free agency at the end of the year, so Simpson was just doing right by him and letting him see them up close first.

Browns first final tomorrow.

Simmo said he was going to try a different ruck set up maybe this is it Brown the versatile all rounder come Ruckman.

 

[alexmcd]

I trust simmos judgement. Might look like lunacy but could be genius.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Really bummed about Jetta out, but utterly perplexed by the Brown inclusion.

Exceptionally odd selection.

How can to not realise why simmo did it.

Brown has backline exprience
Fwd experience
Ruck experience

He's very versatile

 

[dave123]

He's there to take someone out ...legally of course and if he gets a week it's ok

I'm not sure why he's been recalled ...my only thinking ...scott Lycett might be a late withdrawal is my thinking

 

[Carbine Chaos]

He's very versatile

Haha sure...he's a shit forward, shit ruckman and a passable backman (only due to his injury comeback, otherwise he's good).

Awesome asset to have in a final.

Tunners is unavailable?

From WCE website:

Ruckman Scott Lycett, who pulled up sore after the Adelaide victory, proved his fitness during the week and will be supported by the re-born Jonathan Giles, who was a valuable contributor against the Crows.
