Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 5 vs. WCE, OS Fri 16/04 @ 8:10pm

You're still able to work in some Phillips bashing to the threads I see.

What can I say, you inspired me.

 

[_RT_]

WHE may not play Friday as his wife gave birth yesterday to a daughter

He should do the right thing and take the whole year off to be there.

Nice to hear , hopefully Will asks for 4 months paternity leave

 

[pablo disco bar]

Tyler Brown would be well in front of Poulter and McInnis at this stage. Technically you'd say Greenwood and Macrae are omissions from their list as well.

Tyler brown ..(the slug)

 

[jmac70]

Keep trying Chief.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Federal Government pays 85% of paternity leave.

 

[SchuPie]

My main problem with Bucks at the moment (apart from the number of games our 2nd-4th year players have played) is that I am sure that in his interview before the first game he said (and I'm paraphrasing from memory) that they were going to play an exciting brand of footy that people want to watch and that it might cost goals in turnover / games but it was the new style they were implementing. Not sure what happened to this intended game-style.

Not sure if hate towards WHE or a brutal swing at Sidebottom

 

[BEEG]

DeGoey playing don't think he flew to WA today?

He’s flying in tomorrow via private jet.

 

[KillerMagpies]

I saw him kick 2 and get involved in a number of key plays including a brilliant tackle and many great contests which brought the ball to ground-more than our highly paid Cloke did in 2010.

Cloke. 1 flag.
Cox. 0 flag.

 

[KillerMagpies]

Everyone remembers his 1 game. Unfortunately his other 70 games are the problem. He is a ruckman because he sure as hell can’t play as a forward.

Thank you, Billy.

 

[gouki88]

A little bit of both, mostly the former... mostly!

 

[grayza2018]

Anyone else think we can win this game?

I have a feeling we'll be right in it too. Backs to the wall, on the road, all those cliches. We have risen for these type of games in the past.

Hopefully Bucks can flick the switch on the game plan and get us moving

This has to be comment of the year!!!

The key to victory will be to maintain our attacking intent, and not revert to defensive mode when we have a lead. That’s what cost us against the Lions.

[Billys Back]

Anyone else think we can win this game?

Yes I do. I think we can turn it on and beat any team. Grundy and Sidebottom need to have good games for us to have a chance.

 

[Billys Back]

Eagles are shaky. If we can play with intensity and take some risks, I reckon we are a chance.

And Kennedy isn’t getting any younger. If we can do a job on him and Darling, they won’t be able to kick a score regardless how good their smalls are.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

We beat them last start when nobody thought we could.

 

[LuckyLee]

And Kennedy isn’t getting any younger. If we can do a job on him and Darling, they won’t be able to kick a score regardless how good their smalls are.

I suggest you prepare for disappointment.

The Weagles will be stinging from blowing a winning position against St Kilda last week and out to atone for the embarrassment of losing to us in the finals last year. They won’t fall into the trap of under-estimating us again and are going to be very focused on extracting revenge. Their injury list is worse than ours but they should still win pretty easily.

I get why we couldn’t afford to keep him. He is a $650k pa midfielder not a $950k pa midfielder.

We only saved 600k pa by getting rid of him so we’re only saving what he’s worth anyways

 

[grayza2018]

Regarding Macrae, are we expecting him to play mostly midfield? Or more forward, with relief minutes in midfield?
