Strategy Changes & Pre-match Discussion - PF vs. GWS, MCG 22/9 7:50pm

[Hazz]

I read “breaking” and was about to die

Agree. My heart dropped. Still got that little adrenaline hit…

FFS Collingwood. Where’s the trigger warning.!

 

[windchimes]

We're not bringing in Frampton to play on Keefe.

Moore to Hogan
Howe to Riccardi
Murphy to Keefe
Bruz to Greene
IQ to Daniels
Leggy to Bedford

X2 but swap Howe and Murphy.

 

[Kes1984]

Almost sounds like Adams could play this week. But given we may have a next week that’s more important, they’re resting him to let him get fully right.
Expect he’ll play grand final should we make it.

 

[CaptainHowdy87]

The team line up is balanced and ready to go. We should expect a strong performance.

Hopefully no repeat of the Buckley s**t show in 2019.

Look at our line up for the 2019 pre lim, woeful.

Quaynor > Young Noble
Murphy > Mayne
Naicos > Aish
Jaicos > Phillips
Thomas > Lipinski
De Goey > Treloar
Grundy > Cameron/Cox
Adams in his prime > Mitchell
McCreery > Wills
McStay > Reid
Hill > C.Brown

I wouldn't say woeful, but definitely not as good as our current side.

The emergencies were even worse

 

[No SPIN]

Best replacement for Adams in the HHF role is Ginnivan helping to connect mid to forward

But that’s not Adams’ primary role.

 

[Harry O]

Lol Lip isn't going anywhere this was simular to the WHE talk in here a month ago.

Adams for Daicos that's all it will be.

They need to go after Greene, can not allow him to get going absolutely huge for this team.

GWS are very hard at it. Hopefully Lippa isn’t exposed for his soft underbelly

 

[Jonno94]

Adams will be sub in the granny, nothing more certain.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

There is gonna be so much chatter this week, all these dangerous Giants players, but the truth is, if we can't knock off the Giants at the G in a preliminary final with a pretty much full strength side we don't deserve to be in the GF, let alone win the premiership.

Now it's all down to the boys to play the minutes and show what they're capable of. Hopefully they show considerable more ferocity and thirst for the contest than the Power did last night.

 

[Apex36]

Nah.

That was actually a pretty reasonable and well thought out team, which maintained a well balanced squad, perhaps even strengthened it.

Take off your Oleg glasses for 5 minutes, it’s not like Bianconeri wants him out of the 23…

 

[BEEG]

GWS are very hard at it. Hopefully Lippa isn’t exposed for his soft underbelly

Not every bloke is Michael Voss.

 

[Harry O]

Not every bloke is Michael Voss.

You get exposed on the last 2 weekends if you are soft and slow

 

[cfc19902010]

Lippy was very good in last years prelim

 

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

I suspect it's actually more common for the losing grand final team to fall down the ladder than the winning team.

I thought we were talking hangovers, very different from not living up to expectations the following year. One is a result of a literal hangover, the other is just not being as competitive as one would like due to whatever circumstances.

 

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

Sier had one!

So did Grundy. In fact I think he played hungover.

 

[Jafo]

Imagine tomorrow morning struggling to get onto Ticketek website to buy Prelim tickets because they’re filtering Paramore fans.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Why are we comparing the team to the 2019 prelim team?? I’m confused. That was like 85ish games ago?

That was a Whole Year Ago

 

[TakingThePies]

I love your optimism and you are right. But geez it’s a risk. The Port game last night showed what happens if you play injured or underdone players.

This mindset of when we hear "hamstring" we think 3-4 weeks.. You can nick it by awkward landings and positions. He was running and moving extremely well today and IF ....IF we make it, he will be playing.

Testify!
Our home ground advantage and killer team belief should account for something..

 

[Harry O]

Big ask for the Giants. 6 day break.
4th consecutive week of travel. Not sure many teams have won 4 in a row all interstate before
