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

[Jen2310]

The Three Talls experiment begins!

That poster who said Reid will be picked was spot on.

 

[Stoods]

this will be interesting
Mihocek isnt your typical tall, he is very mobile so maybe not such a bad thing, but is also risky

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Silly in my view.

 

[Soups]

Dogs are usually a very quick team.

This could be dangerous.

Or we see it as “not-a-Danger” game and try 3 KPF. Who knows.

Their backline has also been woeful.

 

[nahnah]

Jeepers, see how it goes but can’t say I agree with it

 

[TradeDraft]

Reid is in.

So Reid be the Back Up Ruck and Cox stays Forward?

Other way around

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

I hope to God the roof is closed on Sunday.

 

[jonbe54]

Cox is better ruck than Reid will ever be Dave.

 

[Corby_4]

3 talls at Marvel?
Seems a strange decision to me.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Their backline has also been woeful.

Agreed, but I’m more concerned about their midfield.

 

[Stoods]

maybe only 2 of cox, reid, mihocek will be on the ground at all times with 1 always on the bench i dunno...

 

[FireKrakouer]

 

[Adz]

The Reid will not lie down.

Dangerous? Bulldogs? This ain’t 2016.

 

[Apex36]

Can’t say I agree with the idea of replacing Stephenson with Reid. This makes our forward line a lot slower.

 

[Quicky]

I don't think Cox, Mihocek and Reid will work. Massive net difference in mobility when you replace Stephenson with Reid. Elliott can't get back soon enough, but that doesn't seem like it'll be soon.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Daicos will leave the club at the end of the season.

Bucks clearly hates Greeks.

 

[Yidaki]

Not excited about Reid in. If it doesn't work, then you would hope we would get some goals from the mids.

I think Reid is coming in to give Grundy less time in the ruck. Probably a smart move in that regard because it allows Grundy to rest parts of game whilst at the same time not miss the game completely.

Personaly, I would have brought in Daicos though and would have rotated Cox through the ruck.

 

[Jen2310]

The thing with Daicos is.. we need goal scorers, and he isn't a forward these days. He more plays up the ground, Crocker too. Reid is our only goal scorer available.

That what I thought Too.

This selection could cost us the Game

s**t we have no Forwards left then

 

[grayza2018]

Not a huge fan of the selection call, but I'm posting in here for a reason.

Worried it could back fire on us on the quick deck, but hopefully Reidy kicks a bag and makes that thought redundant.

Go Pies!

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Is it me or will they fool us by playing Moore forward and Reid back

Moore fool you for thinking that.
