Preview Changes: R21 vs Port Adelaide

[MrBarry]

I smell Port alias.

Why?

I hope we injure a few of them as well......

On another note, seeing Mackay named this week has just dropped my interest significantly. Between the 15k crowd, Walker and now Mackay - I just want this season over and done with already.

Hopefully Fog kicks a bag and Cook does well, but theres very little to be excited about at the moment.

I'm now convinced that one of lifes great mysteries will always be David Mackay and how he has managed to retain his spot on the list for an additional 5 years than he should have done and on top of that was playing regularly.

 

[conVINCEd]

We'd usually get the player to bandage up with a queen size mattress on their leg and soldier on however given D Mac is the likely inclusion I expect we'll play it safe with Jones this week

Any bet on Mackay playing is a safe bet. And he isn’t even officially listed as an ‘in’ this week due to being the sub last round. Genius.

Can only assume Sholl is crippled at this point.

 

[Deaneus!]

And by the 3rd game our Messiah had risen from the depth of the Medical Sub bench to take his rightful place on-field…

Has Mad Dog ever been named at half-forward before? 1970crow ?

with in and outs, it makes you wonder where spudmac will play. And of course you just know that he'll be named on the field, because you've just got to respect him like that. Have a look at this glorious troll from the club.

This stupid pose, Can footballers stop pretending their collars are too tight?

Its like that stupid graphic design trope thats popped upo ink the last two weeks, “big pictures of subject with overlaid text in boring font”, like this piece of shit

DMack might be used as a wrecking ball this week.

Dish out some tough justice to Dixon and Lycett.......

I reckon he has. He’s played ahead of the ball as well. Totally hopeless at it, so it’s definitely another string to his bow.

I've managed to convince myself that we might get closish. Perhaps even win if we're close enough and they choke under the pressure.

Does Tex out make us a better side?

Going on last week it probably does.

Value for money though with 2 goals from 5 disposals…5, five disposals. Wouldn’t be surprised if his woeful performance was self-inflicted with the investigation he caused. Yet apart from lots of last-in-the-chain fails, I thought we actually showed something even while the scoreboard looked worse than our overall game.

Port are licking their lips so I hope we convert some of that good play from last week and be good nuisance value and limit the damage. We’re not winning this one, but standing up to those campaigners is not negotiable, especially with our now disgraced spiritual leader not playing. Great opportunity for some young forwards to put their hands up.

 

[MrBarry]

but standing up to those campaigners is not negotiable

I'll be utterly disgusted if we dont fly the flag and or try and leave one on Lycett.

Believe me, I hate those campaigners as much as anyone alive, but I’ll never be hoping anyone gets injured. Besides, I want them to have an uninjured full side when they lose a prelim, just to remind their flog supporters that they aren’t even close to the real contenders.

 

[Drummond]

Mackay playing? Well, that’s me out.

This club is rotten to its core.

 

[Crow till I die]

Good to pump games into Dmac right before we delist him. Smart.

Delist?? - where did you go and get that silly idea from. I am just waiting for the club to announce a 1 year extension for Dmac - hidden in the fine print with all this mess happening with Tex

 

[Disco Fox]

If Sholl is ok to play SANFL then he’s ok to play AFL.

Rubbish - what an ill-informed comment.

 

[1970crow]

Rubbish - what an ill-informed comment.

no it's not, not when the player you choose to play instead is David Mackay. You've literally got no idea.

He'll get another year.

 

[Dangarman]

Yes, after we lost both small forwards in the 1st quarter.

Brownlow votes (3-2-1) from the past 5 awarded games. Won't be playing for Port in bold. Won't be playing for us underlined.

R8 2018 - Gray, Atkins, Rockliff
R20 2018 - Crouch, Gray, Sloane
R8 2019 - Keath, Rockliff, Sloane
R16 2019 - Gray, Bonner, Rockliff
R2 2020 - Motlop, Boak, Rockliff

We still have Sloane. Gray, Motlop and Rocky will be key showdown specialist outs for Port.

Gray was 2-3 weeks on the injury list when I wrote this.
Walker wasn't in the poop.

Gray has made rapid progress in his recovery from a medial ligament injury and is being moved into full training this week with a view to pushing for selection.
Change the line to 15 goals.

You have to use the draw card! Can't use Thilthorpe or even the debutant. Have to go with what sells.

 

[WetCrow1991]

I smell Port alias.

It is my understanding that it is generally only Port Supporters that use the term Pear.

 

[footy4ever]

Lol this is a joke right?

No.

Be afraid.

Be very very afraid.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Yeah Thilthorpe and Cook in is nice but other than that, no real reason to tune in this week

 

[Geoffa32]

Proof Tealsters are gullible.

McAdam could be a useful sub..

There has to be someone at theclub doing this intentionally at this point.

Why would they put Mackay front and centre on the main website?

 

[robboaustralia]

350 tickets for port..they only have like 100 actual supporters..what are they going to do with the leftovers

Can they byo tarps?

 

[jackster83]

Nah bollocks to that. It's a proper rivalry, are we so small time that we only want 1 game a year?

Meh, it's like watching an Australia vs NZ cricket or rugby series. There's usually plenty of talk but when was the last decent match?

Would rather see us play the likes of Hawthorn, Geelong, WCE and Carlton twice. Clubs we have a decent on field rivalry with.
