Changes v Brisbane

[Scorpus]

Except Keays is not bog ordinary....but I think you know that?

Nah he's not bog average, that'd be Jake Barrett, but he's still a relatively unknown player

 

[mistylake]

Well I think it looks smart.
Might become a trend.

 

[mistylake]

Hope we're prepared for a wet surface tomorrow night. Not clearing up till virtually the start of the match.
Mind you anything can happen.

Light scattered showers tonight (all but dried up)... with a chance of showers in the morning. It's not been as bad as they predicted (thankfully).

 

[jenny61_99]

We had a light training on the track this afternoon - half hour or so. Fair bit of goal kicking.

 

[jenny61_99]

sure, but if an opinion is demonstrably wrong and you want to show the least bit of common respect to that person you offer a correction, you don't touch them on the shoulder and say I respect your opinion.

OK the idiot insinuation isn't the politest way to go about it either but geeze, this isn't a dinner party.

Bingo. That's all. Tell em you disagree. Tell em why. But leave this bullshit out. That's all I'm saying.

 

[Samcro24]

Can't believe we dropped Josh "the jewel in the crown" Jenkins.

Most of the day 30-40% chance. Which basically means a few showers looks like pretty wet at 1-2am tonight.
The oval will be wet though, humidity is at 91% now so it won't dry out much.

 

[Squiba]

Seriously, if we are even pushed by this mob, the year turns into "Operation Fogarty"

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

We are not a one man team. Other players need to stand up! He is getting tagged every week because other players aren't standing up. Players need to see Sloane getting tagged as an opportunity.

the last two weeks doesn't reflect this.

 

[BACCS]

I posted on this late last year; horribly handled.

At the end of the day he also has to take responsibility as well. As far as player development goes, it's the last thing you can criticise our club for.

 

[BACCS]

Except Keays is not bog ordinary....but I think you know that?

He's certainly not going to be anything more than average though

 

[NTRabbit]

He's certainly not going to be anything more than average though

It was Josh Green, twice. I remember it because it was another colour matchup

I'm expecting a complete massacre tonight. There not going to come out an dish out the same crap they have for 2 weeks expect them to be nasty and hard within the rules expect a melee to happen I can see a 100+ point win coming there going to come out and make a statement and go for the kill. Yes it's not a huge statement since it's Brisbane but it's going to show were going to be the hunters from now on and there sick of being called soft.

Also looking ahead we play Freo(H), Geelong(A), St Kilda(H), Hawthorn(H), Carlton(A), Dogs(H), Melbourne(A), Geelong(H), Collingwood(A),Port(H), Essendon(A), Sydney(H) and West Coast(A)

Out of these if we can get back to rounds 1-6 we should beat Freo, St Kilda, Hawks, Carlton, Dogs, Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon, Sydney (9 Wins)
50/50 on Geelong(H), Port(H), West Coast(A) - I think we should beat Cats at home and port at home (2 Wins)
Losses Geelong(A) - If we can somehow win this it will be a miracle one thing in our favour is they'll be coming off games against the Dogs and Port (Dogs game was tackling frenzy going to be sore players)

So if we can get back to rounds 1-6 form we should win 16+ games (Which would most likely secure us top 2)

Hugely optimistic.

Fremantle, St Kilda, Bulldogs, Melbourne, Geelong (twice), West Coast, Port Adelaide and Sydney will all be tough matches.

I'd only be penciling in wins against Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon at this stage

Please refer to the last two games and revise.

I honestly don't agree.
Fremantle - just beat richmond who we destroyed.
St Kilda - tough but should beat,
Dogs - i'm sorry but overrated unless umpires are favouring them,
Melbourne - we won't dish up the same crap,
Geelong - 50/50 at home a loss away
West Coast - 50/50
Port - Can't rate currently yet to beat a top 8 team if they beat Cats next week i'll say this ones tougher but once again I said 50/50
Sydney - Also said 50/50

This is also only going on if we can get our form back from Rounds 1-6 Also hopefully by round 15 Seed is in the team, Mcgovern back and cheney back

The delusion is strong in this one

I clearly said this in the post. Teams can't call us soft from 1-6 because we won contested possesion in all of these games and lost tackles in two (Port by 1 tackle, Richmond by a few more)

We have been soft the past two weeks. Not the first 6 expect it to change.

 

[Aaron929]

Explain mate. If we can get back to the form of Rounds 1-6 how in earth is this delusional.

 

[Sanders]

The positive is that it sends a message to the team that regardless of status form is King

Bevo dropped Strunger last year, Caleb Daniel earlier in the year and Libba this week so with this in mind I for one welcome selection tension across the entire playing list

How many of those guys are soft, apply no pressure, are dubiously regarded by the match committee, 28 years old and beginning a 5 yr contract?

I welcome the selection pressure too, but that still doesn't explain the contract

 

[Sanders]

Have you watched Levi Casboult kick for goal?

??

Much has been written and said this year about all the work he put in over the off season

13 goals 4 points this year

 

[huludicidal]

Explain mate. If we can get back to the form of Rounds 1-6 how in earth is this delusional.

We won't get back to that form because our game plan has been completely exposed. Every club in the league now knows how to stop us scoring freely. Tag Sloane. Apply physicality at stoppages. Swarm extra numbers around stoppages. Clog space. Watch the panic merchants panic.

We'll probably beat Brisbane because they are the worst team in the AFL right now. By 100 in the wet? No, that's ridiculous. We'll make the 8. We're still a chance of top 4. Beyond that, it's now up to Pyke to completely restructure our game plan mid season because the current one is now defunct. That isn't easy.

Not sure if you watched the Cats vs Dogs tonight. If you think our midfield can compete with anything you saw in that game, we're watching different sports.

 

[Godallblighty]

This is also only going on if we can get our form back from Rounds 1-6

So, if we recapture our winning form, we'll win?
