Definitely saw Jones limp off towards the end and he didn’t come back on so hopefully it was nothing then

He was specifically asked that question in the presser and said it was just cramp

They would never lie to us about an injury

 

[Altum Volantes]

Rioli will go because 2022.

Fox have already started the jungle drums, they’ll get him a week at least.

It looked to me like a suns player barreled headfirst into his shin.

That's how I saw it too, was worried it had damaged his knee or something

It wasn't a much different action to Nick Reiwoldt's mark of the year when he kamikazed backwards for a chestmark into the pack. But now Fox are onto it the tribunal will likely look at it as careless conduct with high contact = medium impact classification and 1 week.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Updated after hearing JD is apparently fit and Jones not injured.
In: Ryan, Kelly, Shuey, Witherden, Darling
Out: Langdon, Naish, Hough, Edwards, Williams
Sub: Naish
Dixon to be the backup ruck in place of Williams with JD taking his place up forward.
If Rioli goes, then Naish keeps his spot, Hough to be sub.

 

[xInfected_Virus]

Out: Williams, XON (unlucky), Rotham, Langdon, Waterman, Dixon (only if Darling's fit)
In: Ryan (if free from COVID protocols), Shuey, Witherden, Kelly (if free from COVID protocols), Winder, Darling

I think Jones will be fine since apparently it's just a cramp. The team needs to go more smaller it was clear the team was too tall and with the lack of runners available or cooked the team got overwhelmed in the final term. Don't think Yeo's ready for next week although L.Edwards might be. Hopefully Rioli doesn't get suspended over his bump.

The team needs to be smaller.

Williams and the specialist second ruck strategy needs to go get thrown down the lava and hopefully not fall into the trap of switching Williams with another specialist ruck who lacks forward craft. Despite the talls there was on the field none of them had an significant impact in the air which allowed Gold Coast to crumb any balls and constantly rebound it at will. Waterman is also a liability as well because he doesn't take enough contested marks, not quick enough to gain separation and goes missing too often would rather have someone like Winder in his place.

Round 2 team vs North I would like to see.

Isiah Winder

 

[Biggie]

Leave Naish in.

Long penetrating attacking kick. Don’t have many of those

 

[Bender_]

Naish has a touch of the Ash Smiths about him.

 

[Godfather32]

Naish has a touch of the Ash Smiths about him.

He's nowhere near that soft

 

[Bender_]

He's nowhere near that soft

He'll be designing and selling w***er t-shirts before the bye.

 

[braddalzielleoursaviour]

In an ideal world:
Ins: Darling, Shuey, Kelly, Ryan, Witherden, Duggan
Outs: Williams, Langdon, Naish, XON, Hough (both unlucky)

What i think may happen:
Ins: Kelly, Ryan, Shuey, Witherden
Outs: Rioli (sus), Langdon, Williams, XON

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

In an ideal world:
Ins: Darling, Shuey, Kelly, Ryan, Witherden, Duggan
Outs: Williams, Langdon, Naish, XON, Hough (both unlucky)

Ideally we’d be allowed to play with 23 players.

 

[braddalzielleoursaviour]

Ideally we’d be allowed to play with 23 players.

Dixon the last out, think we’d go with waterman instead. In saying that we could roll with Dixon as backup ruck

 

[Jed Clampet]

Out: Rotham, Dixon, O,Neill, Langdon
In: Witherden, Ryan, Kelly, Shuey

 

[THE A5]

Naish didn’t have the perfect game but 18 touches, 526m gained 5 inside 50’s and 4 rebound 50’s. Not a gaff like accumulator but someone who is build to run and gun in the wide expanses of optus. He’s very much an attacking wingmen and someone we need. We need guys that can look inboard and execute those kicks that can open the game.

 

[Rowan18]

Are Kelly and Ryan guaranteed ins?
I thought it was 2 weeks with being Covid positive.... might be wrong though

7 days and once youve caught it, you don't have to isolate if exposed again within 8 weeks.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Out: X O'Neill, Williams, B Hough, Dixon
In: Shuey, Darling, Kelly, Witherden

Straight swaps for the young guys. Depends on injuries and suspension if Rioli is out. Crossing my fingers that Jones is fit because he was BOG for us.

 

[FKASC]

Definitely wouldn’t be surprised if Jones is injured. Don’t often walk straight to the dugout when you have cramp, unless of course he was already en route there, but I suspect not.

Also wouldn’t be surprised if Rioli gets suspended just because.

 

[RookiePick]

Considered that, but against North who played three genuine rucks this week I think we need more than just part timers chopping out NicNat

Is Wiiliams any better than a part timer? I'd say not.

Ridiculous that we have slimmed down a guy who came to the club as a large for age, aggro beast into another nothing tall that we only want on the ground for 50% of a game because he can add nothing at AFL level.

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

Out xon langdon Dixon waterman
In Kelly shuey darling Ryan

Hb Nelson McGovern Foley
C gaff Redden SPS
HF Ryan Darling Jones
F Rioli Kennedy petrecelle
Foll Natanui Kelly Shuey
Int Edwards Hough Williams Naish

I think that team gives us good experience back but also gets games into Williams and hough .

Think hough should stay in until duggan is fully fit .

I don't think we should play both witherden and hurn in the same team .

Also if Williams doesn't work out play gov as the 2nd ruck
