Preview / changes v North Melbourne

[richmond_14]

I think this week we will have to bring in a second ruck man, because no way in hell will Gus or Derrickx keep their spot. I think he stamped his papers at the weekend. So either they will get Griffiths to ruck in parts, which i think is unlikely, or they will bring in Post to play up forward and second ruck man in the Vickery/Derrickx role. They could also bring in Browne, and play a genuine second ruck man. Both got good write ups in the Coburg report so would not be surprised to see either in.

LMAO..its your mate dude...

Yeah, I couldn't see myself asking for it.

And if/ when I lose it, it'll be on the bar anyway. Just the size of the lunch and the number of attendees...

 

[jstone]

Tuck new contract??

i say no atm too, but definently holding that forward spot. hope he kicks his few this week too

Well hasn't this thread racked up a shitload of replies?

Well hasn't this thread racked up a shitload of replies?

Possibly because we have one thread on changes/preview with 16 pages instead of two separate threads with 8 pages.

You know, I just hope Martin doesn't try too hard to assert his dominance and do something stupid to get himself suspended.

Our loadings were in the paper today, so we better be careful.

50 Jackson and King
40 Cotchin
30 Conca and White

Out: Batchelor(inj) McGuane Webberley Derickx Graham(all omit)
In: Martin Jackson Maric Post Astbury

Get serious people. Drop McGuane? For who? A bloke who has done SFA to this point (Post) and a bloke who hasn't played for a year?. Astbury WILL NOT play, why do you bother even naming him. There is no chance we will drop both Derickx AND Graham, didn't you hear about Maric? The bloke can't even train he is that buggered. Without either TD or Gus, who will ruck? McGuane?

Browne?? Been having solid form in the VFL all year long.

Wow, no Griffiths, and still Angus Graham in the squad. We are in trouble.

Oh and Miller back in. Great. Really thought Browne would get a shot.

Adams and Petrie named too. This could get ugly

Interesting to see Pederson and Greenwood named. They would be the 2 likely late ins of there is a change.

 

[DustinsGuns]

Petrie will kick a bag on Rance again.

I reckon if Maric gets up, Graham is dropped.. Can't believe Miller gets another shot (presumed by the fact that he is in the starting 18)

I predict the final changes to be:
Out: Batchelor, Derickx, Graham, Webberly
In: Maric, Jackson, Miller, Martin

Post, Graham and Webberly the Emergencies.

Can't see them playing Post with Miller, McGuane, Riewolt, Moore and Rance in the team. Maybe if Maric doesn't get up?

 

[Old Skool]

Pederson is insurance for Petrie.

Cunnington and Garlett have been in better VFL form than Levi.

 

[jko'neal]

Shame Griffiths couldn't get up, seems to take a long time to recover. Not surprised Miller is in, we have no one else that can play there with Vickery out.

 

[PHX]

UMPIRES: 3. McBurney

The worst news.

 

[peejay]

cant see what miller brings, still think gus will go for post

if four of those ins get a gig then i guess gus and webberley to go

 

[Groupie_]

The worst news.

In b4 smasha

 

[peejay]

And in other groundbreaking news - the richmond leg this time is really a leg

 

[richmond_14]

Honestly rather see Post than Miller. Im completely done with Miller, has done FA all year. Id almost rather see Gus than Miller, and Gus is my most hated player on the list. Post could possibly be in to play in the back line, especially if Hansen, Tarrant and Petrie all play. Real shame about Griffiths. I hear they are just being pre-cautious with the kid though. Short term pain, long term gain i guess.

 

[jko'neal]

The worst news.

Yeah, Umpire Steve ( I never pay Richmond forwards frees ) McBurney. Wear head protection Jack, you won't get a kick only if your head is separated from your neck.

 

[tunksy]

post over miller for me. did well int he 2's as a relief ruck/backman. miller forward will provide nothing.

rance will need to keep petrie to only a few goals.

but im not sure whos gonna run with harvey and wells... shut those two out and we are a big chance to win. maybe lids with wells?

 

[Madtiger2006]

Don't bring in miller. Give post a good 7 week run in the seniors please
