Prediction Changes v WCE elimination final

[ossie_21]

My call:

Roughead for Minson
Wood for Williams
Libba for Stevens
Macrae for Hrovat
Stringer for Cordy

 

[AFDogs]

My call:

Roughead for Minson
Wood for Williams
Libba for Stevens
Macrae for Hrovat
Stringer for Cordy

Pretty spot on but I'd be half tempted to drop Roberts instead of Cordy/Stevens and play Hamling on Kennedy.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

B: Morris Hamling Boyd
HB: JJ Wood Suckling

R: Roughead Bont Macrae
C: Dahlhaus Libba Hunter

HF: McLean Campbell Dunkley
F: Stringer Boyd Dickson

I: Biggs Picken Daniel Jong

Out: Roberts, Minson, Stevens, Hrovat, Williams, Smith, Cordy
In: Wood, Roughead, Macrae, Libba, McLean, Campbell, Stringer

I still stand by this team

 

[AFDogs]

If Hamling is dropped I will rage.

Won't be dropped, was probably our best player against Freo.

 

[Doggies_13]

West coast supporters started the bye well but now they are turning into complete and utter flogs.

They deserve to be favourites on their home ground but you'd think they were premiership favourites they way they are carrying on with how much they'll flog us.

And the line we are bringing in so many under done players, wood and roughie missed a single game, stringers been in the vfl, Libba and macrae have missed since round 19 about 5 weeks, yet JJ missed 10 weeks and never missed a beat first game back.

West coast supporters need to get over themselves a bit, would love to see how they'd go with the injuries we have had all year they wouldn't be in the 8 that's for sure

 

[bresker]

I'm loving their overconfidence. Hope the players buy into it as well.

We're being treated with a total lack of respect. **** them. Can't wait to wipe off their shiteating grins.

GO DOGGIES!

 

[doggies ftw]

Stevo hinting we'll go small in defence. Love that idea. Drop Roberts with wood back. Morris to kennedy and hamling to darling.

No brainer IMO, we play our best footy with a small backline and Hamling has been really good so surely it's Roberts that makes way.

Really hope we bring Campbell in, gives us so much flexibility. McLean should be a certainty too, not sure why he was dropped. 7 changes is a lot though.

Also $11 for dogs by 1-9 on Sportsbet, lock it in fellas

GO DOGGIES!

Don't think that is the case at all as we all know no such thing as an easy final. Think some of the comments are probably made with tongue in cheek just to stir you all up Simmo is giving a very loud warning to the players so one thing is for sure the players won't be under any illusions that this game will be a walk in the park. Certainly no disrespect as you claim!!

 

[ThirdLegUp]

no natanui, and lycett has a dodgy knee... i wouldn't be against going with our early year Campbell/roughy duo again, and leave boyd FF. can cause them issues with our talls like the last time we met, they had no answer to campbell and roughy, out marked them all over the ground. only concern would be campbells long stint out.

Macrae, libba and woods back in is massive. Mclean would be a good in, he is a difficult character to deal with, he is what jarrod grant never became.

Drop roberts, he can't handle the big bodies of kennedy and Darling. they will eat him alive and i will age a year every time he goes near it. Hamling isn't a great deal better in that regard, but hamling offers more as a footballer, in terms of gameplay sense.

Getting the feeling we will run and gun more then we have for quite some time.

**** i wish we had adams. not sure why everyone thinks we are no chance in hell. The team we field on thursday will be a better team then we had against Geelong at shell. Even at their best i couldn't see WC mids coping better then geelong did until libba went off. Bring that kind of nothing to lose ferocity and the eagles won't no what hit them.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Here is the thing, I'm fully confident that we are a better team than the Eagles. Fact is we finished on the same points with us having a heap of hurdles (not saying they haven't too but I think we all know ours has been riddiculous).

I really feel like our side deserves better than to have to go to Perth for an elimination final after the season we have had.

If this game was in Melbourne and with these ins we would be favourites.

But the fact is that it isn't, so I'm going to try and not be negative.

This team has surprised and amazed me so many times this year, so once more isn't out of the question.

Either way, I'm very proud of the way we have gone this season and truely hope the players get some reward for their effort

Who cares? Whining about not getting respect is a North Melbourne thing.

We're a good shout. If we lose, so be it. I'm damn proud of what we've achieved in the face of so many injuries. If we win, then is the time to pay out on the arrogant Eagles fans.

 

[StringyDog]

Roughead, Wood, Libba, Macrae, Stringer for Minson, Stevens, Roberts, Williams, Hrovat is my guess, would prefer Williams to stay in for Smith though

 

[Doggies_2008]

I like the idea of bringing Campbell and Mclean in with those other 5, 7 changes might be too much tho ?

Morris, Wood, Hamling, JJ, Biggs, Suckling and Boyd is a good defence- Roberts needs to go. If Campbell plays can have Roughie float forward and back, from memory they took some good contested marks against West Coast earlier in the year? Leave Boyd in the forward line(won't happen)

Out- Roberts, Hrovat, Stevens, Williams, Minson and Cordy.

 

[zucvv]

Still have the feeling this could be the do or die game for Moyd, if we lose this one badly, he'll be the guy taking the fall and not contracted.

 

[Dogsman16]

I want my old Stringer back!! Come back to me Jake.

Insert Titanic music.

 

[timtamWB]

If this wasn't finals, I'd love to see Hamling dropped and Roberts kept in just to see the meltdowns in here

 

[BatteredBulldog]

Still have the feeling this could be the do or die game for Moyd, if we lose this one badly, he'll be the guy taking the fall and not contracted.

This is a very very big and important game for Matthew Boyd!
AA selection has put a little bit of pressure on the club to re-sign him.
A bad loss and not a bad performance from Matthew could be telling.

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Forgot Cordy was still in. Reckon he'd be an out this week.

 

[bobby2]

Still have the feeling this could be the do or die game for Moyd, if we lose this one badly, he'll be the guy taking the fall and not contracted.

Have to disagree here. I have almost no doubt that the club will offer him a new contract. We're not in a list position where we need to push older blokes out. He's had an absolutely ripping year, and he's only unsigned because he wants to deal with it at the end of the year.

Yes please.

Crazy odds for a final.

 

[Doggy]

According to wet scrote scum we will get murdered by over 10 goals... by half time

Probably shouldn't bother turning up

 

[Doggy]

Who does the winner play in the second week

loser of Hawk V Geel

That's what i thought .. wet scrote supporters think it's sydney or great waste of space.

Do WC get a home final if they win this week?
