Unofficial Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 11 vs. Carlton, Sun 29/05, 3:20pm MCG

[unplugged]

I think Oliver Henry into the 22 is a given with Cox out injured.

Do we persist with the Begg second ruck? I don't think T Brown will get that gig again.

Is Roughy back yet or still another week away?

Don't think we'll make more than the one forced change.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

I can’t believe we have to fly back from Perth and verse the blues on a 6 day break.

Blues are in Melbourne and have a 8 day break.

Annoying.

 

[parano1a]

Cox was decent in the ruck for the 1st quarter, if his finger is okay he should play.

 

[whiskeytown]

Out: Cox, Murphy, T Brown
In: Roughead, Henry

Murphy sub

- Continue with pinch hitter 2nd ruck policy

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Roughead as a second Ruck?

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Hard to drop anyone after that game.

Probably swap Tyler for Begg.

 

[Lifelong Pie]

I can’t believe we have to fly back from Perth and verse the blues on a 6 day break.

Blues are in Melbourne and have a 8 day break.

Annoying.

We play on Sunday, 7 day break

 

[Bianconeri]

Out: Tyler Brown

, Cox
In: Roughead

Move Moore fwd/second ruck.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

We play on Sunday, 7 day break

6 days between games. Same same.

 

[Moore of the Same]

#nochange

 

[thebigsaveloy]

Out: Tyler Brown, Cox
In: Roughead

Move Moore fwd/second ruck.

Absolutely no chance Brown is getting dropped after that game. Probably the best game of his career so far.

 

[surfer1]

I thought T Brown was ok no changes except injury. Out Cox in Henry. Plus a med sub

 

[jc37]

Absolutely no chance Brown is getting dropped after that game. Probably the best game of his career so far.

Agreed we need to persist with him because you can see it. If he can turn his 12-14 touch games into something in the 20's he will be a player. Has talent, size, hardness and speed. He also does some clever things without taking possession. Keep getting games into him and hope we are rewarded if it clicks.

 

[whiskeytown]

Absolutely no chance Brown is getting dropped after that game. Probably the best game of his career so far.

And it was still only an average game. 11 disposals from 75% game time

Let him go back to the VFL and learn how to be a defender because he has no future in the side as a mid

 

[Cobalt King]

Brown did just as well as Begg and will be up against Silvagni as Blues 2nd ruck so might as well go with him again. Hard to see any other changes than the obvious Henry for Cox

 

[MrJimmy]

Going to be a beauty next week guys! You boys play like that and we'll have our hands full. Just wondering, has Tabernar washed Howe's skidmarks off the back of his head yet? . What a mark.

 

[coolidge1000]

So was thinking cause Next week is a home game could we request the sprinklers be on during the match

 

[Lifelong Pie]

6 days between games. Same same.

It's considered a seven day break, anyway doesn't matter

 

[legendstatus]

Think about the 3 worst teams in the last decade then look at the ladder

It feels like it's a sport on here to see who can get in first to have T Brown dropped, not sure if the ones wanting him dropped actually watched the game, he's getting better and there's no way he deserves to be dropped for any of those kids in the 2's at the moment

 

[jimmy35]

On a fishing trip with 2 rabid Carlolton fans who are like Tiggers supporters and I haven’t heard from them in decades and now can’t shut them up. I like the ins of some quality and depth this week and the mix of our youth. Our backline and mids need to be their game otherwise Curnow et Al will feast.
Out I would like to see so much ******* umpire influence on games.

 

[SwanDaneFan1991]

Huge on a Sunday arvo. Feels like this game gives us a 5 goal headstart. Being a millennial, I remember when going to Perth was a guaranteed L with an L the next week because of travel. How does the W stack up from Perth going into a massive clash like this? Unknown territory....

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Please win.

Head to head record between the two clubs is 128-4-128.

 

[TradeDraft]

Hard to drop anyone after that game.

Probably swap Tyler for Begg.

Tyler actually played well

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Tempted to retain Cox if he’s not too badly injured. Whoever goes out for Henry to be the sub, probably Tyler.

Not a lot of choice otherwise….. bring back Begg, recall Roughead as a ruck forward, or stick with a makeshift second ruck. I’d stick with the third option
