Preview Changes & Preview Thread for Round 22, 2024 vs Melbourne @ MCG

[Nemisis]

Marshall has to come back through the two's and then become our sub. Perfect sub material.

 

[RossFC]

Did the ladder predictor again. Got us winning 2 of the last 3 (losing the showdown). And we sneak into 4th on %.

Win all 3 and could finish 2nd.

 

[Windy Cindy]

No change needed

Reward last nights effort.

 

[Greasyrhys]

No change please.

will come in for Narkle and Evans will become the sub. It's tricky because the team has been better playing with more smalls than we were with 4 talls. The temptation is to get Marshall into some good form coming into the finals. At his best he's very good but his form has been well down most of the year. Playing him in the reserves is a bit like using your Rolls Royce in a demolition darby. He'll just get banged up in the SANFL because the umps are so corrupt.

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

I think at his best Marshall was best 22 but given the injury layoff and his form pre injury it makes sense to bring him back through the SANFL.

It would be about ridiculous to bring a player who's missed a month of football straight in. Even Rioli had a game in the sanfl

 

[Ports1870]

I am a fan of Marshall as a sub

 

[Coobk001]

If Marshalls hamstring injury is fixed, I think Ken will pick him. Even though he shouldn't.

Otherwise, there's no way you can make any change other than switch Narkle out so that he gets a full game at SANFL level.

 

[ibd77]

Will Dixon be managed and Marshall comes back?

 

[PAFC66]

I'm actually going to go to this.
We win this we'll make finals I think
I have no idea what side will turn up , all I know is we absolutely continue to need big games from Wines and Drew they've been monsters.
Melbourne have been pus and there's no reason we don't slaughter them on current form.

 

[PAFC66]

Will Dixon be managed and Marshall comes back?

That would be ludicrous
We need to keep their defenders accountable

 

[Rash]

why do i feel like we lose this game

 

[PAFC66]

Ken saying he wants Marshall in makes me slightly nervous

Said he is best 22

He said he's best 22 when he's up and going
He's not up and going.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Time to thrash them back to Mount Buller.

 

[philreich]

I think Marshall needs to wait for an injury - changing last night's 22 would be madness.

 

[Doctor Feel]

why do i feel like we lose this game

Nah they are cooked to a crisp

 

[Ford Fairlane]

No change? No change.

 

[scotty13]

The change will probably be
Out: Sweet
In: Marshall

Dixon to ruck, so Hinkley has an excuse come finals time about players being banged up and having to play out of position.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I think Marshall should come back through the Magoos but it is not going to disturb me if he takes Franky Evans' spot in the side.

 

[Expat power]

Will Dixon be managed and Marshall comes back?

I like this idea, it’s only Melbourne who are banged up. We need Marshall getting some game time just in case Charlie has an injury before finals.

 

[davesnothere]

Melbourne board sounds like they want Oliver, Gawn and May out for surjury and play the kids. Tom Fullarton vs Jordan Sweet will get ugly. No Oliver in the middle no May in defence.

Can't see Melbourne doing this.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Ugh I'm actually going to tune in this weekend.

No more excuses. No more managing expectations. Win or sack everyone.

 

[jac147]

Unchanged

 

[StueyDaDew]

Win the next 2 we can finish anywhere from 1st to 4th.

exciting, isn't it?
