Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion vs. Western Bulldogs (R14, Sun 23/06 3:20pm MRVL)

[sr36]

Looking for Varcoe to improve his decision making this week, been unusually poor in that area recently

Offensively, it's his ball handling that concerns me the most. Plus I think he's become obsessed with the highlight rundown and hitting blokes at full pace, so he's standing off a bit too far so that his pressure arrives at full pace. I reckon a few others lock it in better, but without the highlights because they get in closer. I haven't liked his recent footy.

Allegedly Stevo

Say it aint so, Harry O. Say it aint so.

Well... Out: Stephenson ?

 

[rand corp]

Elliot and Adams not ready to come up apparently, hopefully nothing in the Stevo betting rumors.
No Change

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Welcome Daicos!

 

[Thefly38]

Isn't Daicos a mid though? Can he play FF?

De Goey can play full forward

 

[nahnah]

Stephenson is a massive out, completely changes the way our forward line is structured... yikes. Pies by 36

 

[Kirby]

De Goey 6
Stephenson 6 Crocker 2
Cox 5
WHE 5
Elliott 5
Mihocek 5
Thomas 4 (because he's out of form)

Ok I had to amend my goal spread for this week.

Looks like we'll have to settle for 32 goals.

 

[jackcass]

I blame the bye. Did I mention I hate bye rounds.

 

[iGNITER]

If Stephenson misses then surely Daicos comes in.

B - Howe Roughead Greenwood
HB - Maynard Moore Crisp
C - Sidebottom Pendlebury Phillips
HF - Varcoe Mihochek WHE
F - DeGoey Cox Thomas
R - Grundy Sier Treloar
INT - Mayne Aish Brown Daicos

 

[MoreMoore]

His dad could

 

[grayza2018]

Daics in hopefully. JT's time to start splitting the big sticks a bit more now

 

[NeverWobble]

Hoping for no change. If the worst happens....

Cox - De Goey - Hoskin-Elliott
Thomas - Mihocek - Sidebottom

Phillips - Pendlebury - Mayne

Howe - Moore - Crisp
Greenwood - Roughead - Maynard

Grundy - Sier - Treloar

Int: C. Brown, Varcoe, Aish, Quaynor

Now is the time for Josh Thomas to lift.
I wonder if WHE might play more of a Stevo Role and start deep forward to keep the same forward structure?

Stevo still playing as far as we know.

 

[Robroy22]

Get your boots ready Josh.

I wondered whether the pies might stand him down “while he is under investigation” just to minimise the damage a suspension could do. i.e ensure he’s back as early as possible for finals.

Ricky Nixon has an interesting version of events on Twitter. If true it would definitely be at the lighter end of punishment.
“Is this the real Stephenson Story. He was in a horse racing syndicate with deadbeat mates who made a bet St. Kilda v Coll for Capt to have 30 poss or more a few weeks passed b4 his mate told him. He then went to the club & self reported. AFL think he didn’t do anything untoward”
