Preview Changes: Round 4 v Essendon

[Vhaluus]

How many weeks will brouch be gathering 40 plus in the sanfl for?

IF he gets 40 touches he'll be in the next week.

I expect it'll be more like 25

 

[hey shorty]

How many weeks will brouch be gathering 40 plus in the sanfl for?

He's a guy who needs miles in his legs, we tried this last year and it failed dismally.

2 weeks minimum

 

[Scorpus]

I'm going to call it early: we'll obliterate a hugely overrated and overhyped Essendon next week

 

[jackster83]

Menzel in for McGovern.

Tempted to drop Milera for not going when it was his turn. Could understand if we back him in again though (see Kelly and Hampton).

It's very hard to judge form, with the results we are seeing, Tonight's game was always going to be closer than the two sides really are it's a showdown and it happens like this every year

Can see JU being ready to go if he was trying to get up for tonight's game

 

[Squiba]

Really hope we don't end up with a tall, slow forward line. Bring In Menzel for Gov, we'll be killed on the rebound with a forward line of Otten/Jenkins/Walker/Lynch

Is that the same as no one would have picked Hartigan to stand that freak RGray

 

[hey shorty]

Milera on thin ice but he too has enough credits JUST. DMac goes when it's his turn (as a senior player should), Milera does not

Don't think anyone expects us to beat you guys next week, so not sure who overrates us. Rightful favourites against Brisbane and Carlton and probably a better side than Hawthorn as well.

Will be the first time we come up against a genuine top 4 team which also happens to be away so it would be expected for us to lose comfortably.

No need to rush him in.

 

[TARANTULA]

Milera and Kelly surely running out of chances. I'm guessing Menzel > Gov the only change bar a superstar effort in the SANFL from someone. Give JJ another weeks to rest up.

I can see you guys beating Carlton tomorrow, so you'll go 3-0. The media will talk the match up as the battle of two undefeated teams.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Menzel for Guv (if JJ still not right.
Brouch in for....? Or will they give him a couple games?

Can't see them getting within 10 goals of us honestly.

Brown will shut down Razzle who is basically the only good forward they have meaning Laird and Smith will be free to run and create all day.

 

[JayJ20]

The media will always hype up undefeated teams. That's expected, but no way will they overrate Essendon by saying that we'll beat Adelaide in Adelaide. So I can't see how we are overrated so far.

 

[Mego Red]

Surely JJ for the Gov.

Otten stays more permanently in the forward line. He can play the Govs role. You're kidding yourself if you think McGovern is massively faster than Otten. Otten might actually kick accurately for goal, too.

Milera, Mackay and Kelly all on shaky ground.

Frankly, I'd like to see Wigg for one of those outside mids.

 

[GreyCrow]

A few blokes could get their way in with a big day tomorrow. Gallucci, Poholke, Menzel, Greenwood, Beech

This is my thought. Wait till after the game tomorrow.

But for now if JJ comes in for McGovern , Otten stays in as 3rd ruck effort as JJ will be too sore. But that makes it hard to manage

 

[Redleg Crow]

Milera get another go, but he not undropable. Feel like Menzel would offer more.

 

[Vhaluus]

Milera and Kelly surely running out of chances. I'm guessing Menzel > Gov the only change bar a superstar effort in the SANFL from someone. Give JJ another weeks to rest up.

I was actually seriously impressed with Kelly. You could tell he had some nerves from his poor disposals in previous games but I thought he was MUCH improved.

I wanted Kelly out going in to this game but now I hope we keep going with him.

16 disposals at 75% efficiency and did a very good job defensively.

Agree. Overrated by a media looking for a story but no one else really. That said, if you flog Carlton, the media will really hype it.

Maybe if it was in Melbourne very unlikely for the media to overhype Essendon to win in Adelaide

Bud, McGovern is, he is lightning quick.. it's why we can afford to play 4 talls week in week out. Thought Otten didn't look that slow at all tonight though, he's just a smart player.

 

[Scorpus]

McGovern is massively faster than Otten

Love the humility mate but of all the games Ive seen this year you guys are as much a threat as anyone. Still got a great team on paper and they have a point to proove.
