Preview Changes: R6 2019 vs St Kilda

[pjcrows]

We've just been to Marvel where we looked slow and lethargic. The PERFECT time to bring in some speed and energy. Dahh!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

So... will Gallucci, Fogarty or Jones be the traveling emergency and miss out on a game this week?

 

[Deaneus!]

Yikes

 

[Scorpus]

Just disgusting treatment of Gallucci.

Hold him back last week so no chance of pressing claims. Honestly the state of these selectors

But but but Pyke said it wouldn't work against him.

Lol

Id expect him to be searching for better opportunity elsewhere, while contracted for another year it doesn't mean much in todays climate.

I understand completely your thoughts
I thought Gooch would offer a bit more flexibility
However the real issue is that Poholke should not have been dropped after one game
The lad has a good attitude and he did put his hand up
Just how he fits not sure against the Saints

 

[BACCS]

This seemed a very logical week to bring in Gooch, weird

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I feel confident that our three key defenders will be enough to handle their one key forward

 

[dude316]

Gotta agree with most here that we need more pace. Still, I thought the mood here might’ve been a bit different....

 

[Deaneus!]

Almost shocked Jenkins didn't get a recall

Poky, well, he played a great first half, but does he have the speed?

I had fingers crossed for a Sholl debut, although hell i'd like to see Jones / Flanders / Gallucci in the team also

 

[pjcrows]

So... will Gallucci, Fogarty or Jones be the traveling emergency and miss out on a game this week?

Won't be Gooch, it was his turn last week. I will say Jones. Had a week off last week, another week off sets him back even more, so I look forward to his return in Round 21 when we're out of finals contention.

 

[Deaneus!]

...I don't

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Gotta reward form with Poholke

Gallucci just didn't do enough

 

[Scorpus]

They collectively let Gold Coast's one key forward have six shots on goal last week so they've had good practice

 

[BACCS]

Poholke deserves his chance again though, but yeah would like to hear the rationale behind the selection

That's not the issue at all. The issue is he shouldn't have been selected at all.

Bringing him against Norf as a half forward was a serious **** up, this is just the blow on when he showed it up.

Put Myles in a position that he was guaranteed to fail and has put us in a position where we can't ignore that quarter. As said, another piece had to go for Myles to come back.

Poyoyolke

Are you pessimistic in all facets of life? Wright is also over 200cm and a good player, and one of his goals came from a terrible free.

 

[Scorpus]

Is our plan to just keep adding inside midfielders until we finally win the center clearance count?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

If Poholke has come in to play at half forward why did he play midfield in the SANFL last week? Especially considering that he really struggled to get into the game at half forward vs North Melbourne

 

[Thylacinus]

Fairly predictable selection this week. It was always going to be either Gooch or Poholke. Poholke has been the form SANFL player for us this year. He is faster than some here may think and offers plenty of run. Deserves another crack at it.

Agree

I think Gooch may be a surprise selection for Knight

Or I could be fooling myself

I hope he has come in to play more midfield time, at least give him a chance to succeed. Otherwise, just pick Gallucci.

 

[40porpoise]

I fear 2019 will be a year when galucci’s development goes nowhere, just as he looked like he was hitting his straps at the end of last year.

I hope I’m wrong as I’m a big fan

Nicely done
