Prediction Changes: Round 5 Vs Gold Coast Suns + Pre-match discussion.

[kingswood71]

Dont mind the changes. Gives us a bit more run.
Still need to up the ante on the contested possession, so hopefully the guys step up.
Brodie will be a decent sub.
Gotta love the club though...Bell: "Henry has been super for us, working so hard and has taken on board the advice"...."But nah not this week mate"...Talk about trying to soften the blow ha ha

What do we think of Draper?

Gotta be honest, I've never seen him play.

 

[King Huskii]

Best team we've named all year

Yes but why the * is Banfield playin over Brodie

Brodie is superior

He better be sub as he could impact at stoppages in the second half

What do we think of Draper?

Gotta be honest, I've never seen him play.

I saw him playing forward in the colts final and he did some really good things after a long layoff due to injury. I noticed him before I even knew he was our Draper. He didn't do much but what he did looked pretty good.

Team site has him listed as a key forward that can play back. Certainly caught my interest.

They play different positions. One's a forward, the other a midfielder. It's not a choice between those two.

 

[hoss]

What do we think of Draper?

Gotta be honest, I've never seen him play.

Only saw him in the NGA when my lad was playing alongside him. I always thought he was the most likely out of his NGA group to make the big time. Surprised he's already named an emergency though.

Brodie will (should) be sub. Small ground, lots of stoppages, the likes of MJ will tire so bringing Brodie on in the 3rd will be nice. Just hope our mids can hold their own against Rowell, Anderson, Miller etc. on a ground that is very conducive to stoppages.

reading the four changes in the team sheet and realising he's not one of them:

Our boy's safe as houses serial_thrilla!!!!!

 

[DockerDerek]

Very surprised that Brodie is not in the starting lineup tbh.

Corbett as an emergency is interesting. Is he over there ?

Pick 45 or whatever it was is a high pick for a mature ager.

Emmett may have started slowly due to an injury interrupted pre season but make mistake the club rates him given where they drafted him

A 21 year old Hayden Ballantyne was taken at pick 21 back in 2008

They play different positions. One's a forward, the other a midfielder. It's not a choice between those two.

We’ve named Sturt on a wing! Would be pretty easy to give him Banfield’s forward role, move Aish to a wing and play Brodie in the guts.

You'd hope so!

 

[hoss]

Really looking forward to watching Sturty and Wagner get a crack at it.

As I said a few posts later. Emmett might be the highest picked mature aged we’ve drafted since 2000 otherwise.

 

[Docker82]

Peel have named Draper for his WAFL debut so it seems likely he’s not staying on as an emergency.

He’s just been named to make his league debut at Peel

Call in Corbett

 

[FreoGirl]

What in Hades has Brodie done wrong?!? slept with someone'e ex gf??

 

[Taylor]

Johnson sub two weeks in a row and now starting, I would expect him to be the one subbed out if no issues come up during the game

No.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

That is a pretty strong Suns side, they have some decent talent compared to two or three years ago.

 

[Serongnthnks4allthefish]

Love the changes. If it's not too much to ask, could we please play good footy now?

 

[Vintage]

Thought we’d be young and inexperienced with those changes…. we’ve dropped down to an average of 72 games, lowest by far of the fully announced teams.

temper expectations everyone!
