Prediction Changes v GCs

[Eagleboy2011]

For what its Worth
Murphy not up to it
Knights not up to it
Jenkins Hit and Miss have a run in the 2's
Kelly your time is running out. Brown isn't to far away
C E Y Had to many chances
Jones (Inj)
ALL OUT

In
Gibbs, Fogarty,Himmelberg, Sauce,Greenwood, Wilson

Laird, Tallia, Hartigan
Smith, Keath, Gibbs
Wilson, Bcrouch, Milera
Atkins, Fogarty, Lynch
Himmelberg Walker, Betts

Sauce, Greenwood, Sloane

Obrien.Polhoke,Mackay,Crouch

On Notice Atkins,Hartigan,

I don't rate Himmelberg at all. I think he is barely a SANFL player. Drops easy marks. He may get better as he is a big bloke but looks soft. Agree with the rest.

 

[hey shorty]

No. *******. Way.



Guess Eddie isn't going to be dropped then.



I agree, I would like to see evidence of a Plan A.

Why would we drop Eddie when he was the only dangerous forward.

 

[jackster83]

What I'd do:

B: Kelly, Talia, Sholl
HB: Smith, Keath, Laird
C: Atkins, Sloane, Milera
HF: Lynch, Walker, Gallucci
F: Stengle, Greenwood, Betts
R: ROB, M. Crouch, B. Crouch
I/C: Gibbs, Mackay, Poholke, Himmelberg

What will happen:

B: Kelly, Talia, Otten
HB: Smith, Keath, Laird
C: Atkins, Sloane, Milera
HF: Lynch, Walker, Knight
F: Murphy, Jenkins, Betts
R: Jacobs, M. Crouch, B. Crouch
I/C: Gibbs, Mackay, Greenwood, CEY/Poholke

Why would we drop Eddie when he was the only dangerous forward.

For showing something for one quarter, then doing nothing, then flying for that ridiculous mark in the last, a 299 game player should know better

We do we persist in allowing his delusion he's a 200cm pack mark?

 

[hey shorty]

Still think it's worth playing ROB and Sauce.

We're going to play Sauce there's almost no doubt, but let's see what we can do with both.

He kicked 3 and should have had 5 and you want to drop him ??

Of all people......

Out: Kelly, Jenkins, Poholke, & Murphy
In: Scholl, Fogarty/Himmelberg, Galluci & Stengle

We also have to do something about Hartigan and Knight who aren't up to it in their current roles. Knight to tagger and Hartigan to SANFL once Brown is back. CEY gets another week as Pyke will look stupid after talking him up so much as being in form then bringing him in to drop straight away.

It's still not a great side but this improves us for now.

Knight needs to be dropped, probably more than most.

 

[jackster83]

Knight needs to be dropped, probably more than most.

What was with his refusal to have a shot at goal? Handballs to blokes under pressure and that left foot kick to nowhere.

He's either injured or shot mentally. I've rated him pretty highly in the past, but right now he needs to go out.

Why are many calling for a quick return of Gibbs ?
I didn’t watch the match but I listened to the commentary
( which there was a large junk of excuses for him )
What did he change ?
Hungry
Attitude
Marked improved kicking
Chasing
Defensive pressure
?

He was very good yesterday as he should have been.

The coasting, kick-wasting Gibbs was 4th in our B&F

Three games later he's out of the team wtf?

Some people don't like the aesthetics of his playing style.

Other players get gifted hundreds of games

He has a laconic style which looks worse when you're out of form, like Atkins.

 

[Tex200]

I would think anything up to 6 players should be under consideration if we are in a merit based system.

But we’re not.

Bang on.

The comments here yesterday showed clearly that people are predisposed to canning him.

You’re analogy with Mark Waugh was spot on btw

DABM R1-3 that was not our Gibbs that held up our midfield for a large portion last year

I thought he deserved the boot, but not first on the list. He responded like a quality AFL player should have done.

 

[Murray2503]

Pyke presser.
"We're not going to make massive wholesale changes"

He feels the next coach will take care of that anyway. Don's going out in a blaze of consistency.

If you read the post carefully, i didn't call for him to be dropped - it's really about our marketing arm having gone into overdrive straight after we embarrassed ourselves

He *should* have been dropped before last night's match

 

[Murray2503]

I’s rather Shane bloody Tongerie over MacKay

I would rather trent ormond-allen

 

[scoota10]

My self. I think Gibbs should Play in front of Murphy, Knights, Atkins, Poholke,

 

[hey shorty]

I would rather trent ormond-allen

Than Sam Jacobs

Consistently shit.

 

[CrowinNT]

Consistently shit.

Despite consistently provided with “learnings”

 

[1970crow]

At 1:3 and panic stations it’s pretty easy this week.

Out: Jones, concussion saved him from being sent back to work on some things.
Out: Murphy
Out: ROB, only marginally better for team performance than Sauce prior to Sauce injury who’s no doubt returning 20% worse than that
In: Gibbs, Greenwood
Rushed in: Sauce

2 brave changes that continue the perform or perish statement made this week.
