Preview Changes Rd 8 vs Port Power

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

If Hamill and Brown are both confirmed as comin in, then I can't see Mackay keeping his spot

How are you enjoying your first season following the Crows?

 

[MrBarry]

Sort of losing interest in the season rapidly, particularly as we continue to have a weirdly conservative selection policy. Will be very interesting to see what crap gets dished up at the table this week.

 

[WeedsMullet84]

And so he should. Was putrid last week.

Go back and watch the replay, he wasn't putrid, and got burned by teammates on several occasions. He was better than his previous week.

What I'd like to see:
Worrell for McPherson
Sloane for Mackay
Brown for Hately
Hamill for Rowe

What I expect to see:
Fog for Berg
Brown for McPherson
Hamill for Mackay (to sub)
Sloane for Hately

If Fog is in the guts then i can see a suspension coming, and i'm all for it.

Will be:

Fog for Berg
Brown for McPherson
Hamill for Mackay (to sub)
Sloane for Berry

I think Hately offered more than Berry last week, and a bit rough to turf him after 2 games.

Well it's a good test I guess to see what mindset the coaching group is in. You could also make a case to drop Mcperson so they could go that way and keep Mackay.

 

[WetCrow1991]

We have gone from Hamstring awareness to selection integrity as the new buzz words.
We're great at finding new ways to cover our poor selection policies.

It is the hallmark of organisations that aren't results driven.

Our selectors have the panic button ready to be pressed.

Farrell is junk 99% of the time

Unfortunately that 1% is reserved for one quarter Showdown cameos, like his 3 goals in a quarter vs D Mac that time

I remember him being corralled by Mackay, who failed to realise he is a left footer.

Classic Crows.

Tom Lynch will not feature on Saturday night after having arthroscopic surgery on his left big to.

It will sideline him for more than two months.

Nicks said Lynch, who was missed for last week’s loss to the Giants, had not improved enough being managed so the veteran and club opted for surgery.

“As weeks went by, Tom began to struggle a little more with the body,” he said.

“There’s a lot of things we’d like to look back over and maybe change the way we went about it.”

But everything went to plan as the sub that day

 

[maxlilly]

Luke Brown (achilles) and Will Hamill (foot) also passed tests to prove their fitness, while Darcy Fogarty was recalled after being an unused medical substitute against the Giants.

 

[Scorpus]

IN:
Sloane, Brown, Hamill, Fogarty

OUT:
McAdam, McPherson, Murray, Hately

Emergencies: Jones, Frampton, Worrell, McPherson

 

[Scorpus]

David Mackay survives

 

[Anzacpaul]

Wonder who goes to McAdam's spot?

 

[MRB37]

Fog.

 

[Geoffa32]

I would have liked Hately to stay in

Are we there yet?

 

[Scorpus]

Gone straight back to our one KPD strategy, with the added bonus of Mackay as a small "defender"

We look quite weak and poorly structured down back

 

[TRP1996]

How tall is the Port forward line, again?

Still not sure Tex/Fog/Berg/Thil works, at all.

 

[Anzacpaul]

Fog.

So Fog, Berg, TT and Tex in the same forward line?


Yuk.

 

[MarcusP2]

Vs Dixon, Georgiades, Marshall? I can see that working well.

Good to see selection integrity doesnt apply to some players

And yes I know they are called senior players for a reason but a strong culture allows for a run in the 2s if there is an extended break from the game

Yes that's correct. We are playing one KPD against their three talls

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

So we're insisting on the ultra tall forward line with Tex, Riley, EH & Fog. Four talls has failed every single time we've tried it.

Oh and D Mac over McPherson, in a rebuild. Any retractions from the "he's a break glass in case of emergency option only" crowd?

 

[jackster83]

IN:
Sloane, Brown, Hamill, Fogarty

OUT:
McAdam, McPherson, Murray, Hately

Emergencies: Jones, Frampton, Worrell, McPherson

LOL

Out: the rebuild

 

[footy4ever]

Farrell will kick 3 goals and we'll have who is this rando kicking goals littered through the match day thread

Lol yup!
