Unofficial Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 18 vs. Adelaide, Sat 16/07, 1:45pm AO

[Tarkyn_24]

2-3 weeks.

Crap. My immediate thought when Adams went down was at least we have a direct replacement. Nope

Might be Callum or Tyler time. Again.

 

[Bianconeri]

I thought Ruscoe was okay. But last one in, first one out. Someones gotta make room for Moore.

He wasn’t bad but he’s not offering enough, we have to have higher standards and each of our back 7 before Moore and Howe missed games offered allot more than him.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Let Fin really build confidence in the VFL.

Adams is also definitely an out. Any concussion like that should take the week off. Head injuries shouldn't be taken lightly.

We don't know if he was concussed.

 

[Bianconeri]

Macrae had 34 possessions and 10 clearances. He isn’t exactly like for like for Adams but he certainly put his hand up. Callum has been moved to the backline so doubt he’d be in line.

Looked like he lost conciousness.

I'd bring him in for Lipinski and hope that Adams is available. Adams has severe limitations as a player, but when it comes to inside mids, he is all we have.

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Agree but he's probably the most likely to make way for Moore.

The way Howe looked on the way off it wouldn’t surprise me if he struggles to come up next week . Hope not ... just a hunch .

Noticed this as well….let’s hope he pulls up but if he doesn’t I’d be keeping ruscoe in for now

Tough finding room for Moore… Ruscoe was excellent.

In Moore
Out Dunno.

Macrae for Adams if he’s concussed
Somebody different to the sub bench…. Probably whoever gets dropped for Moore.

Ruscoe has to cut his hair. I've never seen a worse looking player in our beloved guernsey! He played okay but looks like a bloody clown who is taking the piss. That combined with his strange running gait and dangling hands completes the distressing picture.
Forgive my superficiality but the old mantra of at least looking like a footballer is a good one.

Unaware of his game, but that’s a brilliant performance. Would like to see Finn do well

Yep we need him to fill one of those inside roles

 

[Jen2310]

Fly confirms Adams was concussed, so will miss next week.

Come on down, Fin.

Out: adams, Ruscoe
In: Macrae, Moore

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

In : Moore ( Macrae)*
Out: Ruscoe ( Adams if concussed)*

Macrae playing very good footy at VFL level, may be looked at this week, but would like to see Carmichael given another game. Thought he was good in the second half.
If Adams is concussed, like to see Macrae given the opportunity.

No, I will not forgive your superficiality. Hair isn't the problem.

 

[Mukesh]

Macrae had 34 possessions and 10 clearances. He isn’t exactly like for like for Adams but he certainly put his hand up. Callum has been moved to the backline so doubt he’d be in line.

He also had 9 tackles which shows he’s invested… which was an alleged knock on him earlier this year..

 

[jmac70]

Has he actually been ruled out yet??

Adams will be fine.

Cue the Hardy gif

Surely Macrae is given the opportunity

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Adams will be fine.

He's out concussed.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Surely Macrae is given the opportunity

Probably deserves it but Adam's loss leaves us without a genuine inside mid.

 

[manicpie]

Out : Adams in McCrae
Out : Roscoe in Moore
Out : Henry in Johnson

 

[golazo]

Who do you bring in for adams though?

Certainly not the head coach

 

[Mark W]

I think it’s time we play AJ Especially in his home state next week
