Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 8 vs. North Melbourne, MRVL Sat 08/05 @ 4:35 pm

[Jasper84]

The entire league must laugh at our love for Josh Thomas.

That or they concentrate on their own games and don't remotely care about Collingwood fan's insecurities on team selection day. There's no wrong answers here.

 

[JB1975]

Just JT ? there is half a dozen players who play regular senior football for us that are good ordinary suburban footballers.

Is this the part when you tell us how spectacular a footballer you were, that you could have been a contender, that you were headed for stardom but got waylaid by wine and women?

I love that story!

 

[TradeDraft]

Would of Kept Macrae in the Side instead of Mayne and had Mayne as Sub

 

[Mkcaptain]

Need to fill the Brown quota! Looks like Macrae’s the sub based on the VFL lineup.

That would be annoying. Macrae needs a full game in the VFL

Don`t need to validate myself to you. here`s my cup of care, look, it`s empty .

An empty 'cup of care'. I like that, I'll use it one day.

You're an endless store of inspiration.

Xox.

 

[lyfsux]

Pretty sure I just heard on 7 news that Stevo didn’t train for north today but can’t find anything on it...

Any news?

who cares

 

[Mick F]

Thanks for the insights. I would have preferred an additional couple of changes but sounds like it will be just the one that you have identified. Thomas, WHE and Mayne really do seem to be auto-picks, don't they? Impossible for them to get dropped.

The whole injury sub concept is a shocker, often resulting in a player not getting a game in either AFL or VFL. How is that a good outcome? They should just increase the interchange from 4 to 5 and be done with it.

4 is more than enough.

It’s not a bad seconds side.

 

[MagpieJoel]

Both Brown's aren't AFL quality but continue to get games.

A bit early to stamp Tyler as not up to it.

Good to see Macrae go back to the seconds. I fully support him and hope he plays 200 for the club but for where he's at right now, he's better off running around in the guts in the twos and really working on his craft.

Hopefully next time he comes back in he's ready to stay in.

and Who Ever is Coach plays him in his Best Position

 

[JB1975]

I've seen TD at the footy. No one who has had the experience would question his passion for the Pies, but it's easy to get caught up in some of the doom and despair going around.

 

[danielnajdek]

Prefer Tyler in the team over Callum.

 

[TradeDraft]

Thank you too barrackers

What did Tyler Brown do to get a recall

 

[rand corp]

Doesn't look good for Sier, Brown's get a rails run don't they. We need these first year and second year kids coming through and fast tracking them is great but, we still need to manage the workloads, the pressure and the expectations on them through this year. Most have looked good but have also looked like they will take a season or too to adapt and come on.

I reckon Sier has stuffed up off field. That game he got subbed out for illness is dodgy I reckon.

 

[Visions]

Apparently Buckley thinks we have been playing too much attacking footy the last few weeks and need to be more defensive tomorrow. This should be fun!

Hopefully it doesn't go like 2019 when we got destroyed at Marvel and Cunnington tore us a new one.

It’s been raining goals for us recently, time for us to ease of the pedal a bit...

Maybe he stuffed up off field but that doesnt ring true with me
.
If Sier had stuffed up off field then the club should/would have come out an suspended him rather than brushing it under the carpet. Besides, he was selected the week later, albeit as the injury sub.

 

[barrackers]

Thank you too barrackers

You’re welcome Dave. Think I’ve missed a bit of this thread though.

IF we play as bad we did vs North in 2019 there going to be a Lot of Changes very Quickly
