Preview Changes: R6 2021 v Hawthorn in Tasmania

[CrowinNT]

Tex still kicked 2.3 and had 10 score involvements, was flying for marks as well, didn’t look sore at all. McAdam looks the most in need of a rest, just can’t impact contests consistently.

? Did you watch Tex’s second half ?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Tex is not injured, he was fine today.

He's injured and soldiered on

It would be silly to drag him down to Tassie for a freezing, windy loss after a week of no training

 

[Bearded Clam]

I really thought that too

Lucky TT is a dead eye..

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Kelly did some good things defensively but in a tight game he reverted to his hold onto the ball / short sideways chips. Spreads like cancer and our ball movement stalls.

He's the next limited footballer we'll fall in love with and will play 250 games, then coach

Spot on

 

[Cap]

Rest Walker.
Drop Frampton

Pedlar in
TT in

Fog to FF

 

[1970crow]

Out: Frampton

Drop him you pelicans! He SUCKS. Get him out

Also time to rest those injured players we rolled the dice on and had little to no impact. I'm looking at you Lynch and McAdam

**** off. Continuity wins games of football. Never make unforced changes. You ate a moron sir.

Think largely that stems from Freo defensive pressure

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

If Hateley comes in with no other changes, who goes out?

 

[BACCS]

He had 10 score involvements, flew for marks and kicked 2.3. I think a rest will come at some stage, but don’t see it needing to be this week.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Think largely that stems from Freo defensive pressure

They're not some league-leading elite unit though

If he can't handle Freo's pressure then he can't handle about 15 other teams

 

[BACCS]

If Hateley comes in with no other changes, who goes out?

Frampton and play Fogarty more forward

 

[Golumless]

Might be the right time to hit Hawks. There is a bit of North about them at the moment.

 

[Scorpus]

But that means resting a player. We'd never do that unless they were young

 

[BACCS]

? Did you watch Tex’s second half ?

Yeah, kicked a crucial goal in the last quarter and still had 4 score involvements. Not as dominant but was clearly our best forward.

 

[BACCS]

Might be the right time to hit Hawks. There is a bit of North about them at the moment.

Still dangerous in Tassie though, we just don’t play well down there

No one's saying he isn't good

He's injured and we've seen when he's soldiered on other years he gets progressively worse.

It's an absolute no brainer to rest him this week

You're just saying he doesn't need a rest because you know we won't

 

[Golumless]

Still dangerous in Tassie though, we just don’t play well down there

It is a state that brings the absolute worst out of this club. Still, it's not like the Hawks are flying at the moment.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Frampton.

I just didn’t see a bloke struggling out there today, he was fine. If no one found out he had missed a training session last week then we would think nothing of it, he didn’t look to be playing sore.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Frampton.

We know that's not happening

We've never, ever played a game without a 2nd ruckman and never will

 

[Bernie L]

Ok

Out
McPherson
Frampton

McAdam will stay. You just know it.

In
McKay
Worrell

Come at me.

McKay is much more attacking than McPherson.

He did

He was off for long periods in the 3rd quarter

Pushed back deeper into the F50 in the last quarter because he couldn't cover the ground

Murray started warming up at 3 quarter time in case he was subbed

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Kelly has been much much better than McPherson this year.

McPherson is a good prospect but has only been middling so far in 2021.

It's about the rebuild though.

We need to get games into McPherson unless he has several poor games in a row.

I don't believe we should be playing both Brown & Kelly in most games.

 

[BACCS]

Didn’t Fyfe throw that to Mundy for that last quarter goal? Certainly didn’t handball it
