Preview Changes: R19 v Carlton

[JackBero]

Can someone confirm:

Betts is Out, Stengle is In, Otten is In and is Tex out?

 

[Samcro24]

Didn't we spend half the season playing Fogarty in defence?

What was the point of that?

To shatter his confidence and vindicate his non selection?

 

[the universal]

Surely Eddie is being rested. Eddie is massively better than Stengle. I hope I am wrong about Stengle but he does not look AFL material.

lol

 

[Geoffa32]

Why Murphy still in?



Only brightside.

No idea if he's up to it, but he deserves a shot by sheer weight of performance.

I hope we play him in a position where he can actually get involved.

Stengle for Eddie also a positive. Eddie is just a junk time highlight reel now. Hate saying that, but it is true.

Otten for Keath is unfortunate. But Fog was a terrible defender and Butts is a kid. No point sending him out to be slaughtered. This is why Otten is in the list after Doedee and Keath.

I dont get the Murphy hate here. The groupthink is we dont play enough kids and yet he is a 20 year old who plays with grit and ticker. Still learning his game, but he is good enough to hold his spot.

get f’ed david mackay

Shocking form in the last few games.

 

[hey shorty]

So he will be useless.

So that begs the question, why select him? If we are picking him as a mid/forward or half forward, Jordan Gallucci is right there

Surely they aren't stupid enough to play him there........ Surely.

You can look this up on AFL.com.au ... it will save you the time.

 

[Interloperer]

I don't get the Otten complaints. He acquitted himself well in the games he played last year and I would have had him in the side in preference to several other bizarre changes earlier in the season. Unless people watching the SANFL closely believe he is cooked in the Scott Thompson 2017 style?

 

[OzSparrow]

Wouldn't have actually cared if Betts stayed in seeing as it's Carlton. But happy to see what Stengle can do without Betts in the side.

Otten. Seriously? Yeah lets get slower. Who gives a fu**

They will need to build wheelchair ramps for our guys to run on to the ground soon. Andy Otten is our answer? OMFG.

 

[jackster83]

I’ve been banging on for weeks that we have an alarming lack of genuine KPD cover. Butts is a while off and there’s nothing in between - zip.

Fair to say Reid has been a complete disaster. Just like his old man.

 

[GreyCrow]

Otten
Stengle
Wilson

OK I recognise the changes and the reason

 

[Samcro24]

What's up with Betts? s**tty decision not to play not even one of him, Gibbs or Sauce.

What's happened to all our alumni.

They’ve been Adelaided

 

[thebirdman 24]

should of been murphy for stengle and galluci for mackay

 

[WetCrow1991]

ANDY OTTEN? ANDY ****ING OTTEN WHAT THE ****

 

[1970crow]

Why do we set Tex up for every w***er to abuse? Against Geelong he couldn’t mark etc after he subluxed his elbow. The same story last week. It is usually a 4-6 week injury but he is O.K. as long as he doesn’t put pressure on his elbow by doing things like like marking, spoiling and picking up the ball.

I am The Mighty Thor’s biggest fan but his capacity to run out a game is getting worse not better. The zero
pre-season has made him a shadow of his former self.

I was also the second aboard the Murphy train but I would give him a rest this week.

Mackay wasn’t our worst player last week but he was on the podium as usual.

Eddie and Rat get one more week, they were good against the traffic cones.

So......

Out - Tex (inj), Greenwood (rested), Murphy and Mackay
In - Himmelberg, Wilson, Stengle and Davis

No reference to what THE MAESTRO will do?

 

[King Elvis]

So two forced changes after another pissweak effort.

Bleh.

 

[CrowEater888]

Kruezer is out for the Blues.

 

[Scorpus]

Surely they aren't stupid enough to play him there........ Surely.

The only position Wilson can play is a first rotation inside midfielder. We haven't dropped any of ours, so the only conclusion I can come to is Wilson will be played out of position.

 

[footy4ever]

Amazingly, our team has become slower with these changes

Yup. Inconceivable.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

I am glad Wilson is given a go. Form week in rewarded.

 

[Cap]

5AA just suggested both Greenwood and Keath without new contracts; are they not signing and we've dropped them as a result?

Yeah, they haven't got contracts becuase the club hasn't given them one. Not the other way round.

Both players have publicly said they want to stay.

I'm not sure why people need to find absolute negative in everything crows related at the moment.

 

[OzSparrow]

I am now truly convinced that D-Mac has incriminating photos of Uncle Rob.

Watch him spud it up on Saturday....AGAIN.

 

[TRP1996]

We are now the oldest and slowest team in the AFL

What else is new?

What's up with Betts? s**tty decision not to play not even one of him, Gibbs or Sauce.

What's happened to all our alumni.

Agreed. The answer is obviously bringing in Troy Menzel. .

 

[CrowEater888]

Wilson deserves his chance, as does Stengle.

 

[Southerntakeover]

One of the benefits of playing Betts with Stengle was that they're obviously close, and Stengle could benefit from the mentoring. It's genuinely hilarious that this is the one senior player who's performance we've taken issue with- the one that could serve a development aid.

I'm not sure why people need to find absolute negative in everything crows related at the moment.

I know, people are behaving as if we're a burning dumpster fire.

Oh wait, we are a burning dumpster fire.
