Changes v Port (latest; out: Murray, In: Murphy)

[TradeDraft]

The player i fear most is Robbie Gray from Port Adelaide.
Just not sure of a match-up he torched Maynard last time?Correct me if wrong.
So maybe Murray goes there?

IF he plays

Marley Williams was always our best match up for Robbie Gray.

I would have backed Jeremy Howe to be able to handle him, as Howes handled Dangerfield before, but i think we may be missing a more defensive minded medium defender.

Greenwood to Gray?

Greenwood to Gray?

Maybe so Dave,
I just feel shutting down Gray will be an important aspect of this Game.

Agree, feels like a pure defensive tag from Greenwood is the right move.

Gray is quick and smart but gut feel says it’s the kind of shut down challenge that gets the best out of Greenwood.

Go son!
Don’t care how you got your chance. You now have the honour of playing seniors in the famous Black and White stripes.
Do us proud. Do yourself proud.

My excitement for this game just doubled

Good luck to Murphy but our backline is an absolute shambles right now.

 

[BEEG]

Awesome news

 

[Vicky Park]

Jeebus. A huge game for young Murphy, yet another debutant. Would have been floored at the start of the season to have known so many new players would be brought in.

Really hope all is well with Murray.

 

[Babylove]

Yay. Congrats Nathan Murphy

 

[Brent24]

Hopefully nothing too serious for Murray.

Good luck to Murphy!

 

[Hyakutake]

Good luck to the Murph, looks a good player in the making. Time to write his own chapter in the Magpie story.

I think our debutants this year, especially Stephenson, Murphy, Sier, Murray will be looked back on as a bumper crop.

Still havent given up hope of adding McLarty to the list

Might put Murphy on a Wing?

 

[Stoods]

From last week, yes he is. He played a good game. But it’s a big step up. Never know how a player will adjust.

Our 38th player to play for us this year. That’s almost 2 entire teams!

 

[JJ14AU]

Might put Murphy on a Wing?

I hope so because Madgen/Oxley/Murphy in the backline is very inexperienced. Might have to put Varcoe into the back line at times.

I would not say he is AFL Ready Yet.

He is a Lovely Kick but not a High Ball Winner, Seems to Tire late in Games and Might not sure be 100% Strong Enough.

Long Term I think he becomes a Very Good Player but not sure he is Ready Yet. We just have no one else to take his Spot.

Be Interesting how he Goes

And here I was asking just the other day if anyone knew how Murphy was tracking.

 

[Old Spice]

Awesome.
