Can't really complain about changes so long as McHenry is sub.

Personally wouldn't have rushed back Smith.

When do we think the club will realise Smith is cooked ?

IN: Butts, Curtin, Smith

OUT: Borlase, Hamill, (omitted) Pedlar (injured)

Adelaide’s Showdown 55 team is:

Not sure what smith adds other than increasing our turnovers. Good to see Curtin in.

What did Hamill do wrong?

He didn't change his name to Brodie Smith

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

We’re destined to have one of Ned or Smurph in the side every week aren’t we?

Nicks’ good honest battlers.

That actually looks nicely balanced.
Ned the secret sub weapon Im hoping.

 

[BigBoSS_Riot]

Smith in is a disappointment, but pretty predictable.

That spud Nedward continuing to be selected is baffling. He'd better be the sub.

I’d be pretty surprised if Ned isn’t sub, especially as he almost got a full game last week

 

[MsTopG]

Lachie Murphy is NOT playing

Thats a positive.

 

[Crow till I die]

Right. Assuming Rozee does not play, i'd be really tempted to run Soligo head to head with Butters and then look to try and clamp down JHF who is their real danger man from our perspective. Try to free up izak and if they tag him, roll him 1 out alone with his mn inside forward 50. Don't let them shut him out of tge game

 

[BACCS]

No Lachie Murphy and McHenry likely sub again

Rozee isnt playing. Ken is not even a one trick pony, let alone two trick pony.

If you asked nicks why he dropped hamill for smith he would not be able to give you a logical answer, untenable.

 

[BACCS]

What did Hamill do wrong?

He forgot how to find a football, doubt he plays another AFL game unless we get a heap of injuries

 

[Billy_01]

Team balance finally looks about right. Have to win 2 out of next 3 minimum

Some good some bad.

Curtin in and Murphy staying out is great.

Smith in is bad.

" Will would be the first to tell you that he has things to work on in the SANFL"

“Experience”

Out of form or as most here would say, cooked. Therefore not logical.

What did Hamill do wrong?

Not good enough and will never be.

Probably when he apologizes for his games another 3 times.

I'll take that over Smith's hack kicks all game thanks.

Just thinking how much better that backline is going to look when you bring back Murray to the Keane position, Keane to Smith's role, and then Smith is left out all together....

In reality if you can’t find the football off half back you’re in trouble. (Yes north I know)
