Bev strikes again!

Don't know why I bother watching the pressers anymore to be honest.

Tom Campbell was also notably absent after Beveridge said the ruckman would definitely make the trip west.

Bet Bev wished they never mentioned it. Not sure what time the teams finalise it.

Could of been to try and get West Coast to think we're playing a little tall so they bring more talls in.

I spoke with Tom at the match on Saturday and he told me that he would be going west. Maybe the selectors had a change of plan.

Pretty sure it was reported yesterday that Campbell flew over with wood stringer and others yesterday?

 

[ossie_21]

Someone said about 6 players flew over yesterday, maybe he was one of them?

Nah, the six were T. Boyd, Stringer, Suckling, Wood, Rough and Picken.

Wouldn't put it past us to split the 25 between six planes so nobody has any idea WTF is going on though...

Surprised Bev didn't put them all in different cars to drive to WA just to confuse people

If Liam Jones still played for us, he would have been in his car boarding the Spirit of Tasmania.......just to be sure

 

[Ghenghis]

We also know which umpires will be officiating.
Soon, we will also know the team but........

White clash

Feel sorry for BTC. Thought he performed well early in the season but hasn't had a look since he got dropped/injured.

He did say 25 would travel though, so not surprised a few didn't make the trip.
Campbell was never going to play.

 

[footyicon54]

What will probably happen
In: Stringer, Macrae, Wood, Roughead, Liberatore
Out: Stevens, Hrovat, Roberts, Minson, Williams

Would like Campbell to come in for Cordy, as he can go in the ruck and is more likely to take a pack mark. Also allows T.Boyd to play exclusively forward. Probably not going to happen, but I'll back Bev either way

Also think they will drop Hamling instead of Roberts even though Hamling has been the better defender in recent weeks.

Pumped for tomorrow, but keeping expectations low!

 

[gangsta deluxe]

Yet assuming adelaide win and gws lose gws gets a home final..

Ummmm ok?

Clearly an error by the AFL, it will be in Melb, not Subi.

I was joking, lol

He was asked whether Campbell would travel and he said yes.

 

[Easton Thighs]

Only Bev could mastermind to hide a 6'7 ruckman

 

[TommyD13]

so there are 6 players who are not injured, suspended, delisted or played VFL last week who wont play this week
pretty sure i know 5 of them which are likely- Roberts, McLean, Stevens, Williams and Campbell
Out of Hrovat and Smith of the clay variety for the last spot in the side

 

[DHepp21]

Nice to see some of your guns returning. Good luck against Wet Toast and hope to see your unbelievable ball movement.

 

[TommyD13]

tryna kill time for the next 27 minutes is becoming extremely difficult

 

[TommyD13]

IN: Jake Stringer, Tom Liberatore, Easton Wood, Jack Macrae, Jordan Roughead

OUT: Will Minson, Fletcher Roberts, Bailey Williams, Koby Stevens, Nathan Hrovat/Clay Smith

The web is broken by quick switching and precise kicking. Harder to pull off at Subiaco, but if the forwards push up the ground you can get in behind by going from one wing to the other, hard running half backs moving to receive on the other wing. It's how Adelaide broke us down when they won at Subiaco earlier in the year. Our midfield is slow quite slow and we don't guard the switch well.

Good teams can handball through the middle but it only takes one missed handball to lead to a rushed kick, which is where we set up best to intercept. If you take too long to get up the field as well, the midfielders have time to get back and clog up the defence. We rely a lot on contested marks around the ground because our movement is not that great in the middle, so if you make sure your key defenders follow the forwards and the ruckman get in good spots you can win the ground ball.

Our forward line is working really well together at the moment, and our midfielders are great at hitting leading forwards when we get on top. Make it a dirty game in the middle and target Luke Shuey on the inside and Andrew Gaff on the outside.

Best of luck, hope it's a great game.

Mate this is an excellent response. But one question: are you one of Bevo's spies
Thanks and great analysis.

 

[Bulldog Brent]

Roberts dropped.

Jetta out with a calf. That's huge.

Stevo just tweeted.
