Unofficial Preview Changes v Saints

[JimmyBeerCans]

Please don't ******* go back to the Jake Neade well ffs. She's dry.

Pre melts already

Johnsons great. Really keen to see him in the side again

 

[mic59]

Wait, hold up, a Saints supporter said this? Weren't we two goals down against the Saints with 53 seconds on the clock last year? How'd we go at coming from behind then?

2018 : Sydney, 14 points down at half time; Brisbane, 11 points down at half time; Adelaide, 21 points down at half time, Melbourne, trailed at every change and eight points down at 3/4 time, Carlton, trailed by 6 points at 1/4 time, only led by 2 points at 3/4 time but coming off a scoreless quarter.

If pittard is fine to play then dbj stays out. We need one of them in at least because otherwise we are sloooooooooow

 

[Powertron]

I don’t get the lack of DBJ love here...he’s a walk up start to return, Trengove is playing out of position as is bog average anyway.

We’re a much better team with him in than Jack, it’s a no brainer straight swap.

Yea his pace and attack on ball n' body could really work for our forward line

he was vomit against norwood, looked like he wished he was still in bed with his missus.

Yeah I get that but it’s not like he was out of form in the A’s and got dropped as a result. He was playing really well and missed for other reasons.

Behind Jonas has probably been our most consistent defender each week.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Anything could happen this week, providing we win, and given what the teams above us are up against. In relative terms we have it easy.

We could move to 11-4 and be equal top...

Pittard went off in Q3 with a hamstring on the weekend, the club's injury update doesn't even mention it. Not down as 'test' or 'TBC' or even 'available'. Just nothing.

Doctor Feel u mad?

The well is dry, it was then filled in with concrete and finally was nuked from space to be sure. That ship has long sailed, hitting an iceberg on the way, going down with all hands on deck.

21 disposals with 81% efficiency is why we keep Trengove in the side. Dbj runs in the low 60’s disposal efficiency. We badly need to be better with ball it’s our weakest skill at the moment.

That's because it wasn't a hamstring. Pittard came off because he felt his hamstrings getting tight and he didn't want to get injured. Prevention is better than cure.

I would be if I cared about the fortunes of Pittard. I'm not a lover.

Need pics to judge fairly.

 

[Visenfest]

I really hope the coaches don't jump on the Neade merry-go-round again. Been there, did that, it isn't fun anymore. Johnson would offer more, if a small to medium forward is who we want to bring in. He's faster, bigger, stronger, and kicks more goals.

He was very poor on sunday

What is Trengoves best position?
He said he hasn’t played back much. If so, then his output and composure in his first game back was even more impressive.

He was chasing a Burley around. I’d rather stay in bed too.

 

[Forzaport]

I’m not bothered if DBJ comes straight back in. He was dropped because he was late to training, not because of form.

DBJ is in our best 22 as is Jonas and Watts.

In: DBJ, Jonas, Watts
Out: Hombsch, Marshall, Trengove

 

[Arsene Wenger]

I dont want to come across as a Trengove basher, but he played off half back where we play this chip around game and more than half of his touches were in this space. What worried me more was watching him lumber after Carlton forwards when they streamed forward. He is so short on pace that his only real genuine position should be as an inside mid.

We can get away with him playing there against Carlton, maybe even the Saints. However, imagine JT chasing Dan Butler or Castagna at the MCG in a final....

Some players can make up for their lack of pace with smarts.

Think Greg Phillips in his later years.

I think Trengove is one of those players. He's a footballers footballer and there is always room for those in big games when it tightens up.

fair point mate.

 

[Chizza12]

DBJ has to come back in, debatable whether he should have been dropped in the 1st place. Trengove is solid back up but no way he's a better rebounding defender than DBJ.

Carn. He's a well paid athelete. Let's not make excuses for him.
