Preview Changes v Sydney

[Roadrunner]

Carnage this Sat. We will get smash. We're still a long way off to match Sydney. Low expectations in this game. Hope I'm wrong.

 

[Ball Dont Lie]

How is that an issue?

No issue for me but I don’t need to tell you how soft some of those in the power seats are with this stuff

Their transition run will likely overwhelm us over 4 quarters, but hopefully we can keep challenging like Dees did.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Don’t know why, but I’m confident we’ll give this a shake.

Hopefully Dawson in means Trembath can spend more time deep fwd.

 

[FlyHigh18]

We’ll kick 100 easy.

But will probably leak that many as well on poor pressure going back.

has many times got me shaking my head, apart from the very odd game he is not up to it anymore, he continues to give his player three or four yards as if he is USAIN BOLT and can easily get there in time to spoil only to get beaten 90% of the time, but big defenders aren't coming to bottom clubs and that is why we got Blake Thredgold to join Will & Matt who can play either end of the ground.

They need games into them but they need time and a few years in the gym, unless he does something different in the second half of the season he might be in trouble at the end of the year. Won't be lots of delisting's at the end of the year but at least three other guys might be joining him.

 

[scottywiper]

So two of the back five Rawlings backed in are now out of the team.....

 

[the big lebowski]

I see the swans have brought back Harry cunningtonham

I reckon at least 6 or 7 will go TTS, as we're one over already with Tom Blamires.
1-2 trade spots, a Rd 1 selection (if not traded) and match F/S and NGA kids in Aidan and Sam and Devine.
I think one of Corr and Pink exits though, and I'd say Corr because of this age.

Yeah its certainly going to be very interesting, decisions are probably being made as we speak, these things aren't usually made with a few weeks before the draft, the NGA kids/father/sons, our top draft pick and one or two guys brought in from other clubs will make the last half of the year VERY interesting to see who rises to keep their spot and who isn't going to stay, right before Tassie come in.

With the way we are playing and the natural improvement from players next year, one last little splash at the draft and maybe a couple of handy players joining our exciting team VS the last three or four years makes it VERY possible that it might just happen that way!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a chance this could happen, come the last game of the year...

Yep. Have to wait and see who gets contracted to narrow down the numbers as we go along.
Aidan may choose the Swans and there's also a chance we may pass on an NGA kid like * did with Sweid if we rate somebody else higher at whatever picks we have left.

 

[longsufferingsupporter]

Great outs.

McDonald should join them next week after Papley kicks six on him.

He won’t be going anywhere whether Papley kicks 1 or 10 on him.
His bot being Dropped and within the next month will be offered another contract .
Thats how it goes.

 

[DuckYeah]

Our forward line shouldn’t have too many issues. Its the lead up to entering 50 that is bound to break down, as Sydney are the best team to score on turnover/half back, thats the game. If anyone thinks that All Of A Sudden we will be clean with the ball are delusional, this is etched and engrained behaviour. They’ll score 100 points off their pressure and turnover. Its going to be a rough afternoon.

They are the Swans. The gods decree we should lose to these pricks each time we meet them. F*ck the gods. They haven’t got as many weapons as we do.

I said it against the cats, I'll say it against the swans. I just want to see us in it up till 3/4 time and show we're not far off matching the best. We're not going to play finals this year, Sydney will. A scalp would be amazing, but progress is all I care about this year. We have to beat the shit teams, and push the best teams.

I walked out at half time last year. If people walk out at 3/4 I guess its an improvement

If we do those 2 it's going to be a long afternoon for us.

Yep as a depth player next year. Good to have on the list if we have a lot of injuries and Archer/Goater don't get there.
Will give his all until its time but isn't a part of our next finals side

 

[DuckYeah]

Heeney will give Jy a bath mate. Jy cant play on Heeney, Heeney is too strong, too quick, too smart, just physically dominant in every facet compared to Jy

I think this spot on but the Papley match up worries me (not that we have any other option).

I’d have Duursma on Blakey - he did a good job of making Stewart accountable in the last game.

Yep the Papley one had me scratching my head. We really don't have anyone for these small quick types. Nick Watson would be eyeing our game off already.
