Preview Changes: R16 vs North Melbourne, Saturday July 1, 1.15pm ACST @ Adelaide Oval

[StonesThrow]

Good that they have omitted Sholl.

I agree McHenry deserves a crack and has been alright this year.

I guess we just run the risk of having him fall into the Murphy situation (reverting back to old Murphy) and then we're stuck with two mediocre players again. Hopefully he can do Chayce Jones

Schoey most likely, but it is Roos, so a dumb decision like Berg for sub won't cost us the game.

Agree but you have to reward players for good SANFL performances. Schoey for me.

Berg is there to cover for TT if he drops out.

As long as we don't revert back to McHenry the forward & use him as a midfielder.

No coincidence he has looker better on a wing than as a forward... given we drafted him as a midfielder. It's not like he is Pedlar who is a beautiful kick for goal.

 

[CrowToon]

Disappointed for McAdam
We've lost a couple waiting for some class to separate the game and been found wanting. Reckon McAdam has that ability and he has a very safe pair of hands.

Anyway, Sholl was the absolute minimum and they pulled the trigger. Hope Schoenberg takes his opportunity when he gets it. Unless it's something left field lile Himmelberg to cover for Murray.

 

[1970crow]

Any chance our worst mid (Sloane) might ever get dropped or at least rested?

Sloane thrives on continuity and huge workload.

 

[thebirdman 24]

About bloody time Sholl was dropped.

We don't need big softis in the team. His disposal was vastly overated as well.

[Brett Cummings]

The lesson Nicks needs to learn is we can only truly progress with two of Murphy, McHenry and Keays.

Keays won't be in the side in 2 years. He'll be depth at best. I'd delist him after next year.

 

[rocket18]

Sloane Murphy Sholl should've been dropped.

A real indictment on our coaches that we aren't getting games into players to see if they will/can make it.

Sloane and Murphy are at/past their ceiling.

Safe conservative selections have been an AFC hallmark for the last 20 years.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I think Sholl out will be good news for Soligo

He'll go back to full time wingman where he spent lots of time last season. Jones' emergence as a wingman this season has shunted him to half forward and Keays has pushed him out of the centre square rotations. Has been a bit nowhere for a while.

Shouldn’t be at the expense of Keays

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Shouldn’t be at the expense of Keays

Unfortunately we have to accept that our coaches are deeply in love with Keays and Murphy

They will be mainstays of the team for at least the next 5 years

Any development of other players will need to occur around them in their preferred roles

I wouldn't be so sure Murphy will be in our side for too much longer.

Keays will be though.

 

[Coopers]

Keays won't be in the side in 2 years. He'll be depth at best. I'd delist him after next year.

I still don't mind him as a pressure forward, or tagger. Both he's been good.

Hasn’t convinced me he’s a tagger

 

[Samcro24]

As we’re not big players in the offseason we should be leaving no stone unturned to find out more about what is on the list.

We must be tracking for a record for the least team changes in a year. Especially for a club fighting to make the 8. You’d think we were 14-0.

This is how you end up with players like Atkins and Jake Kelly

[footy4ever]

I actually like Murph when he's on, but he's been ordinary lately.

How TF is McAdam not playing?

Reckon he cut someone's lunch.

If Butts kicks a goal, will be disappointed if we don't hear Sir Mix-a-lot.

McHenry has been pretty damn good as sub this season

Earned a chance at the very least

I haven't been a massive fan previously but respect what he's done this season

Not trying to be a smart arse, but “pretty damn good as the sub” is where he should be.
