Preview Changes v Sydney

[Hojuman]

It’s our flag anniversary game, and there will be a lot of the 1996 crew there. Embarrassing on many levels if we totally poop the bed. But hey, that’s never stopped us before

Ahh, had forgotten about that
Sad thing is NONE of us in here has any confidence that we could beat them if they are being honest.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Would not have minded an in-form RHJ to be available for selection. He does offer serious class.

 

[Hojuman]

And how can we forget Tristan being free kicked for not moving 1 metre to his right as instructed by an umpire at a ruck contest so that Grundy could get free access to a tapout.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Out: Dova, Spargo, McDonald and Powell
In: Wardlaw, Hardeman, Konstanty and Goad

 

[Passmore]

I'd add Harvey to the ins alongside Wardlaw and Hardeman.

It's his last hurrah given he was the last man listed 2 years running. His VFL form is good, give him an extended chance and see if there's a future there.

 

[Karanicolas]

One of the most important things at AFL level is to protect the ball at all times when you have it. It is why Brisbane are so good.

With that in mind:

1. Pink to replace Corr. Better user and decision-maker with ball in hand.

2. Zurhaar to play the lockdown role that MacDonald plays. A better kick out of D50.

3. Cooper to play the half-back distributor role. Has 5-6 weeks to show that he become a Zorko-type player.

4. Daniel to replace Powell - Let’s have those dinky kicks going into F50.

 

[kool kangas]

Ok , as much as some, here what a lot of changes in reality we will most likely end up with 2-3 even with injuries. So maybe some reviews should be made by those asking for 4 or more and go back to a more likely amount.

 

[amaz199]

Gonna be tough this one.

Sydney have a very offensively-minded midfield.

Bring the heat, and its 4 points guaranteed despite the backline deficiencies.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Out: Powell, Dova, McDonald, Corr.

In: Wardlaw, Banch, Hardeman, Whitlock

Want to see Whitlock down back instead of Corr. Don’t care that he has been playing forward he is a natural defender.

Daniel on thin ice too. He needs to be pushed up the ground so that his defending isn’t as much of an issue. If Coops continues his form he deserves a crack.

B: Hardeman, Comben, Whitlock
HB: Parker, Logue, Zurhaar
C: Simpkin, Sheezel, Stephens
HF: Duursma, Larkey, McKercher
F: Curtis, Trembath, Spargo
Foll: Xerri, LDU, FOS
Int: Wardlaw, Darling, Daniel, Spargo, Blamires,

As much as I would love to see LMac and Corr dropped I don’t think it will happen.

More likely just Dovaston & Powell, and I would be surprised if Powell gets dropped as bad as he has been.

Wardlaw is an easy in, and would like to see Hardeman get a crack, but for some reason the selectors don’t want to address our biggest weakness the Backline.

Also I think we only have one Spargo in the team.

We all know:

Out: Blamires

In: Wardlaw.

If Powell isn’t dropped this week we are genuinely taking the piss.

 

[DuckYeah]

Swines rebound from D50 and score an aberabe of 9 goals a game. Uh ohs

 

[DuckYeah]

Who plays on Rosas? OMG we are so ****ed

 

[Chip Scab1]

Spargo deserves his spot.

Agreed.

For Tom as much as us, I hope it happens.

Defensive forward v The Lizard

 

[jay317]

Feel like we get more out of Konstanty than Dov/Banch when he's in the AFL side. Wouldn't mind seeing him up at the level again.

 

[nicko74]

Spargo deserves his spot.

Surely Goater isn't ready? Don't get me wrong I want him in also but he isn't match fit I would've thought

 

[Chip Scab1]

Surely Goater isn't ready? Don't get me wrong I want him in also but he isn't match fit I would've thought

He only has to play ~57%, should be right to go.

Season on the line really must have a crack, **** it.

 

[koshari]

**** pink. He’s shit

yeah but he at least gives fewer infringements and at least follows instruction, Corr is shit and routinely gives oppo free kicks and extremely poorly drilled,

 

[koshari]

CCJ will come in. Clarko itching for it.

fwiw and iam far from ccj,s biggest fan but he was better in his last game than powell has been in weeks.

 

[DuckYeah]

Theres no point arguing. All you are doing is swapping a sebago for a pontiac (see what I did there? Ones white and the others red, I made a farm funny) .. although different. they’re both still potatoes

Just double check Pink’s stats and get back to us. I’ll wait. Happy to wait. I wish you all the best.

Search your feelings.

 

[Passmore]

Wardlaw

H a p p y m e a l

Search your feelings.

Defensively he'd go alright. It's when he takes possession (or attempts to) and disposes of it (or attempts to) that the problems start.
