Preview Changes v Sydney, 415pm Saturday in Syd

[The Nostradamus]

Huge would assume he replaces RHJ

 

[Makeshift Park]

Go well Banga!!

 

[DunderHead]

Great news

 

[Chadwiko]

Interesting that Banch is debuting this week but still played for the B team at training.

It's never a perfect indicator of course, but usually they like to give the debutants at least one training session with the A team.

 

[Chadwiko]

Banch
Cooper
Curtis

Gonna be a very small forward line.

 

[Moti]

Banch
Cooper
Curtis

Gonna be a very small forward line.

Makes me think RHJ is out and Fisher isn't coming in.

 

[Chadwiko]

Makes me think RHJ is out and Fisher isn't coming in.

Both were also in the B team jumpers today.

As was Powell and Wardlaw.

LDU with the A team.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Banch
Cooper
Curtis

Gonna be a very small forward line.

Well on that patch of grass it's probably not a bad idea if they're all gonna be slipping over lol.

 

[Moti]

Guess we find out in an hour if the jumpers mean much. If there are drills mid v mid, probably don't have enough decent mids to not split the A team

 

[Karanicolas]

Banch
Cooper
Curtis

Gonna be a very small forward line.

Cooper / Curtis are good one on one, just need to get separation so they are not competing in a pack situation.

 

[Joshen]

Banch
Cooper
Curtis

Gonna be a very small forward line.

Curtis is 185cm. He's taller than most of the midfield.

 

[winalotroos]

Chom to play forward

 

[JGreezy]

Curtis is 185cm. He's taller than most of the midfield.

Same height as Ablett Sr

I suspect it means something for Wardlaw who will come back via VFL.

Less so for Powell, but we'll see.

 

[giantroo]

Wardlaw will return via the VFL.

 

[Cool Kangas]

Who’s rucking for us??

 

[giantroo]

AFL R19 team: Star mid among four inclusions

Star midfielder Luke Davies-Uniacke will return to North Melbourne's side as the Kangaroos head north to face Sydney at the SCG

[Makeshift Park]

So

Out: Xerri, Scott, Maley and RHJ
In: Banga, LDU, CCJ, Teakle

Not bad, not bad.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Teakle won't play.

lol

glad he is in

 

[Moti]

Pretty much what I thought would happen, except the RHJ-Banch swap, which I like

 

[Chadwiko]

We are playing funny buggers by naming Wil Dawson forward and Comben back.

That is absolutely not what will happen.

Very surprised to see Teakle's name - credit to The Nostradamus for calling that one. From what I saw at training of both his ruck craft and his time in the forward line, I didn't think he was anywhere close to a chance.

 

[viccles]

I like it

 

[hellas_johnny]

If we're playing 6 talls again it has to be 3 forward 3 back we can not play 4 talls down back again

 

[kanga kanga kanga]

“ dance if you should be out of the team”

 

[rickety]

Teakle as sub if CCCCCJ goes bust?
