Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion vs. Melbourne Demons (Round 12, Mon 10/06 3:20pm MCG) FREEZE MND

[unplugged]

I'm a Thomas fan but he has to be on notice. Probably have to wait for the VFL to make proper judgement but maybe Cox for Reid.

No doubt Adelaide will play Melbourne into form today.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Thomas needs a spell

 

[AmericanMustard]

As long as Aish is one of them who cares.

Literal water under pressure

Actually throw Thomas, Phillips and Reid out too.

 

[caloschwaby]

OUT: Aish (just isn't at the AFL level), Beams (needs a spell, get his game going again)
IN: Sier (ffs just do it), Quaynor (ffs just do it)

Maybe Thomas, though I wouldn't know who deserves to come in yet.

 

[frizzle]

Out - Aish, Thomas.
Beams on thin ice.
In - Adams, Elliott

Play em if they are fit ffs pies.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Out - Aish, Thomas.
Beams on thin ice.
In - Adams, Elliott

Play em if they are fit ffs pies.

They're not fit though......

 

[Jen2310]

Out - Aish, Thomas.
Beams on thin ice.
In - Adams, Elliott

Play em if they are fit ffs pies.

Adams and Elliott won't come til after the Bye.

 

[nahnah]

loss we had to have, hopefully this wakes us up now. Playing way too complacent.
JT needs to be dropped but Adams won't be ready so I guess he stays for now.

In: Cox
Out: Reid

 

[nahnah]

wouldnt be against debuting Quaynor

 

[magpies42]

OUT: Aish (just isn't at the AFL level), Beams (needs a spell, get his game going again)
IN: Sier (ffs just do it), Quaynor (ffs just do it)

Maybe Thomas, though I wouldn't know who deserves to come in yet.

Agreed. I think Brown needs to go back and consolidate too.

 

[foreigner]

We have not been putting teams away when we have the momentum and the opportunity by not choosing a better option and turning the ball over and missing easy shots at goal. Maybe Cox is too important for our team structure as well

 

[adammania9]

Never again: Josh Thomas

Banish this über spud to the seconds until he’s collecting 45 & 4 goals on a weekly basis. He isn’t capable of doing anything semi decent. He must have dropped three chest marks at least today. Awful.

 

[TradeDraft]

Drop the lot of them

 

[TradeDraft]

Out - Aish, Thomas.
Beams on thin ice.
In - Adams, Elliott

Play em if they are fit ffs pies.

Send Moore,Beams,Treloar, Roughead,Phillip's and rest of them as we have NO AFL Players

 

[sirlothie]

I'm starting to think Aish doesn't have the size to impact contests but unless we want to blood Quaynor he can stay.

I'm going to go on about this, relieve Beams of his midfield duties, put him at HFF and let him focus on being a goalsneak and link man which is his strength, bring in Sier to take his place in the middle, he only plays his best at AFL level and will give us a point of difference and grunt at stoppages, and Thomas can go to the reserves. This move will help us a lot.

Love that idea tbh

 

[Finnishpie]

We won’t know until tomorrow who can come in, so it’s all speculation.

But no way Aish is dropped. He was a long way from our worst.

Likely outs: Thomas, Brown, Beams (I’m assuming he’s got some minor injury, otherwise we’re in trouble), Reid?
Ins: Cox? Sier, Quaynor, is there even anyone else? Elliot or Adams if they’re fit but they aren’t so forget them.

 

[Baltimore Jack]

No Change

 

[DrSerp]

Love that idea tbh

Agreed. I think Beams, Sidebottom and Treloar in a midfield doesn't work and this is particularly evident when we play sides that are good on the outside as they dice us with their quick ball movement. Sier and Adams have to come into that midfield ASAP and would probably give JT a couple weeks in the 2's to find his form. All in all though I think Beams to the HFF is the move along with moving Sidey around the ground as we're getting severely shown up in clearance numbers.

 

[gerryg400]

We really miss Adams...

 

[The Plowking]

We need Creative. - Sier
And Dare - Quaynor
And Grunt -Sier, Adams

But neither are knocking down the door or injured.

I'd just play them (the uninjured) anyway.

 

[TradeDraft]

I might get a Game as I am better then Aish

 

[Baltimore Jack]

I might get a Game as I am better then Aish

No you aren't

 

[DrSerp]

It'll be interesting watching the 2's tommorow as there are about 2-3 spots in that side next week that are up for grabs. My gut is telling me that Quaynor gets a Queens Birthday debut and we see the return of Sier, whilst we rest Beams who is seemingly carrying an injury.

 

[Boris the Contradiction]

Varcoe had two straightforward opportunities to ice the game and blew them both. Cost us the match with his ineptitude.

Also, he's a low possession 'pressure' player. 1 tackle.

He is (usually very) poor more often than not these days. He's lucky we don't have many like him, but he isn't best 22 when everyone's fit.
