Preview Changes/Preview – Round 2 vs. Hawthorn

[Scythe94]

Said it earlier. Petty will be sub imo. Use him like Joel Smith last year.

At least Smith was mobile though. God forbid we lose a small forward early in the game, would leave us with a team that includes Gawn, May, Lever, Brown, McDonald, JVR and Petty. Way too big/immobile imo.

 

[Scythe94]

Feels awfully like a "we said he'd be back for round 2 so god damn we will play him in round 2!"

Look forward to Petty pulling a Spargo – missed preseason with injury, rushed back into team, out indefinitely a week later with same injury.

TK and Lord Nev have a lot in common now I think about it

R u demon detective??

How goods our selection week to week

Makes no sense, he needs match fitness. Being a sub does nothing for that.

 

[schmuttt]

They’ll make Windsor sub his ball use is too daring for Goody

I agree I'm just pointing out that I called it

 

[schmuttt]

Going to take Goody two months to figure out Brown doesn’t work when we have Fritsch/JVR/Petty there again.

 

[MarcMaverick]

I know the Hawks are a different team but Pets for Woey is just bizarre. Especially since there was an obvious Tholstrup for Sparrow change right there. Sparrow must have photos.

Lever very lucky to still be there.

Goody still is playing favourites. That's why he will not be one of the greats.

Don't really see the point of rushing Petty back tbh, especially since we are keeping BBB in the side. We need Petty to be right for the rest of the year, hope they know what they're doing.

Appreciate the point, and I don't want to get into a public discussion about moderating; however, I do want to make a point that moderating isn't always black and white.

There is a fine line between what is baiting and what isn't, what is a personal attack and what isn't, etc. The BF site rules are applied, but there has to be a level of nuance as to how they're applied.

I just want to reaffirm though that there is no favouritism when it comes to moderating. I've given cards to some of my favourite posters on here, while there's some that I certainly don't see eye-to-eye with who have never received a warning from me.

TL;DR: I try to be as consistent as possible without shutting down reasonable discussion.

As always, happy to chat in PMs if there are concerns about moderating or how the board is run. Just bear in mind that we've only got one full-time mod at the moment, so there will occasionally be things that get missed (or at least, get actioned slowly) if they aren't reported.

Ta.

You’re doing a great job mate - not the easiest role around here these days either!

Let's keep a tally this year, Dees BF Board vs Goody

Round 1 : We won (Spargo shite, Billings sub )
Round 2: Goody won (TMac and Brown selections worked)

Sure, the Melbourne Demons lost in Round 0, but the important thing is that the Melbourne BigFooty board won.

There's a thread in this.

"Are you Smarter than Simon Goodwin."

 

[Demon 16]

How bizarre.. I’ll be really disappointed if Windsor is the sub, but he probably makes the most sense from that list.

Wtf would we pick a tall as sub?!

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

So 1-1.

You must be an accountant Marc.

Are you smarter than a (COVID) premiership coach?

I studied it at school, dry and boring.

Appreciate it

Crazy Goody strikes again.

 

[dazzledavey36]

Baffled by this

We've clearly learnt nothing from the Spargo selection fiasco.

 

[Demon 16]

I imagine that perhaps we think we have them covered in the midfield no matter what, so let’s keep a fresh tall to really stretch their weak backline later in the game?

 

[Topkent]

An that's why old mates blocked. How a post where I complimented ANB ends up in a moderation discussion is beyond me
