Strategy Changes for Rd 9 vs Gold Coast

[Alesana]

GC are very tall.

Selected to match them to some extent.

Jamieson to help Williams against Witts the giant. Could also play kpd, even kpf.

Gonna be needed down back. Seeing Rotham at CHB makes me nervous

 

[KERRPOW]

Okay ins in the circumstances, don't mind the height. Letting Chess build in the WAFL a bit also seems sensible. Team is a bit heavy on defenders though, wonder if we see someone get thrown forward (or at least Duggan playing a lot more mid).

the ball is likely to be spending alot of time in our defence so this is probably a good thing.

 

[new breed]

Rotham play forward or wing , H Edwards CHB if fit enough , first game back .

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Foley spent a fair bit of time on the wing last week, guessing he’ll be doing the same this week.

Back seven to be Barrass, Edwards, Rotham, Witherden, Jones, Hough and Duggan/Ginbey splitting their time between midfield and defence.

Can always switch things round and put Jones forward or Hough up to a wing with Foley going back.

 

[Spange]

pencil waterman in for 5 snags

 

[Dark Sharks]

Pencil Witts in for BOG.

He arguably got the better of Naitanui last time they went at it, and Bailey/Jamieson will be like shelling peas.

 

[THE A5]

Pencil Gaff to land one from 35m out

 

[Godfather32]

Pencil Gaff to land one from 35m out

In the goal square?

 

[Nuffington Post]

Pencil Gaff to land one from 35m out

Pencil in a huge bag for Mabior up against Rotham

 

[Hangover Noir]

Pencil in a huge bag for Mabior up against Rotham

Edwards on Mabior and Rotham on Lukosius?

 

[Grahame]

Pencil Gaff to land one from 35m out

Pretty embarrassing seeing a seasoned campaigner line up 40m and not make the distance. And predictably so.
Better to shank it where the randomness may result in someone getting ‘a seagull’.

A rare use of the word campaigner not in an insulting context


Unless you called him a seasoned campaigner, in which case fair bump play on

 

[Doashuey]

Pencil him in for getting pinged for two HTBs after failed don’t argues and 8 touches from 75% TOG.

Taking on the Nelson role then?

 

[Mop]

Just need a run at the Hip E Club too and then you're golden

 

[Trouto]

My change for this weeks game is:

no injuries

now that would be a change

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Went to the Carlton game and stayed to the bitter end (by that stage wanted to see if we could prevent a 100 point margin and/or a 10 goal haul), backing up today.

Pencil me in for the Woosha Medal.

Oh, you were that other Eagles fan still there when the siren sounded. I wondered if it was someone off here.

My Dad was with me too

On the way home he thanked me for the ticket, said he enjoyed himself, but added that'll be the last time he comes this year because the Eagles are insert long stream of expletives here

 

[Astro7]

Have we capitulated and given up on a Game Day thread?
Umm, Arrgh, Sigh...go eagles?
