Preview Changes V GWS

[McCauley]

No idea of his weight, but he's around 192cm.

Generally its 100-Height !
He would be around the 92kg mark.

 

[Vader]

Does anyone actually know LT current weight and height? I've seen weight from 84 - 92 and height from 184 - 194

Listed at 194cm/88kg on the AFC website. How close that is to reality is anyone's guess, given that we know they frequently fudge these figures.

"VB will certainly play. It'll be good to have the skipper back. Laird is ok, he'll come into selection debate. Hendo trained fully today."

"Jenkins is fine. He has a bit of tightness, but he'll play ... we can't take any risks with our key forwards at the moment."

"We'll pick the best 22 to play this week. We can't afford to flirt with our form." #sandopresser

"I respect GWS. They're full of young talent. They can beat anyone on their day." #sandopresser.

"Talia and Cameron played on each other last year and Talz did a great job. Cameron's game last week was fantastic."

"Lewis Johnston would've been right in the mix. He hasn't done anything wrong with his form in the SANFL."

"It's a good chance for Jenkins and McKernan now. They know they'll be playing together for at least the next few weeks."

"Brad Crouch will miss one more week. As a young player, he'll probably play in the SANFL next week."

"We got some clarification about what is a free kick and what's not (in a marking contest)." [Ed: and they never heard about it again... ]

All 3 should come back in if fit, as we have 3 players worthy of making way...

WTF is Sando doing??

WTF is Sando doing??

Easing the future of the club back into it.
Don't want a Hammy Hartlett on our hands

Larid would play at WAFC youd think.

Letting the kid ease his way back into the side.

Exactly. Crouch was out for a fair stint last year with a hammy (unsure if it's the same one as this time around). We don't want this to be a recurring thing. Give him a run in the SANFL then bring him back.

Whats the difference? Its not like playing SANFL is easier on hamstrings? Crouch is clearly in our best 22

Much slower game, he wont need to burst as much. Plus after a month on the sidelines there are few who could step straight back into it, let alone a 3 game Veteran

What DJ said above.

I would rest Rutten and Dangerfield/sloane, but since bailey got 6 months for resting players, I wouldn't.

These players are in form. I would think it would be more of risk to rest them at this stage.

 

[haydo]

I don't think resting players is on the cards this time around. We haven't been playing well all season and no one deserves a rest.. We need to make a statement, put the best 22 players onto the field and make it a big win.. Since we are behind the 8 ball being 2-4, percentage is going to play a major part on wether we'll play finals or not

next 2 games we have a chance to really make up some ground and give ourselves some confidence. Need to thump GWS this week by 10 goals + and then have a solid win against the saints.

Reading between the lines at the presser Hendo and VB are in but Laird will go back to SANFL. Probably not a bad result for Lairdy, he can go back and work on a few things, let the body recover and get cherry ripe for his next few AFL games mid season.

Although Sando said he'll pick the best available team, it's very likely that anyone with the slightest niggle will be rested. Wouldn't be surprised if JJ was rested given his niggle. Could play Hendo or Lynch as a tall target.

My tip is:

In: VB, Hendo
Out: Jenkins (niggle), Sloane (rested - insert imaginary injury)

 

[beartoo]

Rutten has asked Sando if he can be rested from time to time this year. Wouldn't surprise me if it is this week.

 

[NSWCROW]

So anyone else from here going ??

 

[WaynesWorld19]

He sucks

yeah ...that's why i keep forgetting him

 

[Vader]

I'll be there. Probably my only "live" game for the year.

 

[McCauley]

Van Berlo returns

 

[Heafy83]

Bloody slack there Vader

Would be interested in your feedback about the stadium, its claimed to be a boutique stadium!

That's a nice way of saying "any bigger and we'd need tarps"
