Fixture Changes v Plastics Round 8

[Doggies_13]

Hopefully McNiel is sub

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Dropping McNeil is ******* stupid.

I imagine it’s last in, first out with Libba back. Was expecting it to be between him and Scott. I’d expect McNeil to be sub.

 

[dogwatch]

McNeil's misfortune is McLean's luck.

Oh well. No point melting. Bevo knows best.

 

[X_box_X]

Yeah, I'd be happy with that.

We're pretty close to full strength now.

McLean is out also.

McLean is also out. Not even emergency

Yeah I was a little strong in my initial comment. Obviously he has been dropped for a reason.
I thought he created enough chances and put enough pressure on to get another game.

I liked the small forward mix last week.

Thanks. Just noticed that.

Bevo DOES know best!

 

[Lee]

Probably the closest the strongest 22 we’ve put out all season

TOB injury is unfortunate but Gards is a good replacement although VFL form has been up and down it seems.

Unlucky for McNeil but I think he should be the sub.

Clearly come into the emergency list and Buku drops out after multiple weeks, interesting or just a non event?

 

[Bald]

McLean couldn't play AFL this week, there was nowhere to put him with Baz back last week and Libba this week and he absolutely had to play a full game this week coming off .5 games in 2 weeks.

It's frustrating, but McLean would be best to look at other options at the end of the season.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I agree. I would’ve liked him to stay in as well but Scott’s form has been solid so I can’t complain too much about their decision. Whoever was left out was going to be unlucky.

He looks a strong prospect as a pressure forward and I hope he gets a long run in the side soon.

 

[dogwatch]

So everyone knew TOB was injured, right?

 

[theAthenian]

best team on paper this year
go dogs

 

[dergert]

Who has some backline match ups? Hogan has had a few good games against us.

Greene kicked a bag against us last year. Does Duryea or JJ head to him?

 

[Norm De Guerre]

TO'B's injury timing is a bit unfortunate for him, I think he's been pretty good since his return. However, I think that we'd have be pretty keen to get what in my view to be our 3 first choice KPB into the same side.

Hopefully this helps Keath return to his traditional role of intercept marking. Its something that has been really lacking in his game all season.

We'd be hard pressed to naming a better side at the moment.

Otherwise. Im outraged at the naming of Libba on the bench. Outraged I tell ya!

 

[Struggle]

Hope its the late 2022 version of Gardner and not every other version we have had.

Would love only one KPD with Jones and someone like Buku as an interceptor.

Unlucky for McNeil

 

[Mr. Walker]

Surprised McNeil is out but Libba makes us better so someone has to go.
Not a fan of the three talls in the backline. Would have liked Buku to replace TOB given he is injured. Just like a bit more run from defence that imo we don’t get with 3 “big” talls back there.
In Bev we trust.

 

[Ash1337]

I think a few here wanted McLean to play some vfl after being sub for a few weeks so maybe that's why he's not named as an emergency.

 

[dogwatch]

In Bev we have no choice but to trust.

EFA

 

[Libbaaaa]

Didn't Duryea do his knee early when Greene kicked 7? I think he is a solid option on the Grub.

 

[CDBulldog]

I’ll join the crew at the Durham

Are the Dogs coming up early & putting on an open training, does anyone know?

Durham it is.

 

[dogwatch]

Now a 60% chance of rain on Saturday night.

 

[doggies ftw]

McLean will be gone for at least a month, so obvious when we didn’t even bring him on as sub.

I would have gone Scott sub and kept McNeil in personally but either way it’s not too big of a deal. Hopefully Gards gets up to speed quick, this is the best KPD trio we have if all are in form.

Keath move to TOBs role where hes 10x the player, and Gards for another defensive option. It’s the better mix, but just need Gards & Keath to find some form

Is he? I can’t remember really seeing him play that role for a long time. I think the whole Keath is a great intercept player is a bit of a myth from his Crows days. Gardner isn’t great at it either though.
