Changes v Geelong

[Jwuzzy]

Yours era is over!

I think personally the Cats picked the wrong coach for their club!

I would not want Scott if there was an option right now to swap!

What you mean the coach who won a flag in his rookie year?

We're hoping our coach emulates that this year!

 

[TheRoo32]

and the ground lol?

But the Cats are in better form now than back then!

Geelong have lost 2 games in more than half a decade down there.
And we're in form now at the right end of the season like we have been for the past 6 years. Coincidence?
And you think your just going to waltz down there and get a win? hahahaha.
Good luck with that
Cats by about 30-40pts

Thats using the term 'in form' pretty loosely there lads. When we played you last you were coming off 3 wins in a row. The last 3 weeks you've limped across the line against the Suns, been belted by the Pies and had one good win against a struggling Essendon. So if anything you were in better form last time. The Crows are currently in better form but at Simmonds it will be a very tough ask and its hard to split the two teams this week. I dont believe anyone has said that you arrogant flog! Get back on the bay...

Sorry champ, but I am 100% sure most here would agree with me!

I don't rate Scott.....yet.

He had a gift wrapped awesome team to coach!

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

Wha a a --- a at Jenkins dropped on top of great game and real worries about Kurt boy that is crazy

Then you're wiser and better at selecting a hypothetical side than I am. Congratulations.

 

[eastcoastcrow]

If the Crows can't beat Geelong or at least keep this to a narrow loss this week we will struggle playing away in September!

I don't. Premierships are never a given - Scott was able to out coach the master. Yes he inherited a good team, but everyone was thinking they were on the wain then, yet he was still able to get them up again and win the whole shebang. Not bad if you ask me.

 

[eastcoastcrow]

5AA thinks he may play!

Hmmm that would massive and stretch the Cats.

Lol oops that's Tippett

Hmmm true!

But would you swap right now coaches?

Last year or before then yes!

 

[TheRoo32]

All jokes aside,
Seriously, crows are going to have their work cut out big time.
That place is a fortress down there. It's easier playing the eagles in Perth than it is the Cats in Geelong.
Bartel back in is massive.
It's gonna be interesting to see how the younger crows deal with a truck load of pressure in front of a feral crowd against a side who has just smashed 6th place on the ladder by 70 odd points..
I got a feeling it could get messy...

Refer to my earlier post in reply to you. In case you didnt notice we just smashed 5th by 50 points as well.
Fair enough to come on here and talk footy. But to come onto the Adelaide board and be that arrogant saying your gonna smash us after one good win after struggling for weeks is Bay 13 stuff.
On topic I think it will be a close game decided with in 3 goals either way...

Well, Geelong have a premiership coach. We don't. Let me get back to you after September!

Limped past the Suns, thumped by the pies and beat the struggling Dons.

Why if Tippett plays which very very doubtful would they have him doing a lot of back up ruck work .
Last Kurt or Crows need is for him to have another concussion in next month or so.
What more did you want Jenkins to have done last week against a top team and best ruck combination

 

[Chief Crow]

One massive advantage for us this week is Sando and Dasher's inside knowledge of Kadinia Park. In previous years we would play there with little info on where the best areas are to attack that ground.

Between the two sticks.

When I originally did my in's an out's this week, I couldn't find an out for Walker to come in and Jenkins was just unlucky. It's a fact, some players who are dropped, are just unlucky.

Walker will come in, that is a fact and I still believe Kurt Tippett will play this week, so who drops out? and if Jenkins plays, I don't know who will drop out.

Sam Shaw will come in for Brad Symes and Taylor Walker will come in for (if Jenkins plays) one of Petrenko, Callinan, Wright, Johncock or Otten.

I would hate to see another six changes. Too destabilizing. Definitely limit the changes this week to must haves.

I imagine we will have 2

Shaw and Walker for Symes and ????

Last time we won down there Ayers was coach.

My one change would be Walker for Tip

pretty sure Shaw is still injured. The bleeding behind the eye hasnt resolved yet

I had more doubts against West Coast at home than your mob at Simmons.
Geelong played very well against an up and down team who had been previously beaten by Melbourne so I wouldn't get too carried away.
Your big test will be against Adelaide. Underestimate them at your peril!

 

[Elite Crow]

Channel 10 reported Shaw hasn't been able to train and hes off to a specialist tomorrow. Surely with bleeding behind his eye he would have been to a specialist already. Hope it's not one of those injuries that look harmless but hang around.

You have to wait for the swelling to go down before its looked at. They would have seen if it resolved itself first though.

So shaw won't be in, just a straight walker for Tippett swap. No other changes for mine. Give symes another chance.

He did see a specialist last Monday. This will be a follow up to see how he has progressed.
