Preview Changes vs Adelaide round 18

[Bender_]

what about, different pillow, wrong breakfast cereal, bed facing N-s not E-W.

soft comment

Think it was less of a soft comment than pointing out how soft the players are.

Would have thought we would be flying Saturday with this Covid thing.

They will probably take a charter flight so there's no risk of exposure, blocking them from returning.

Flight is probably cancelled because they pulled out.

soft comment

Sorry, we’re not all super tough Sydneysiders.

I said the players seem like they don’t do well with obstacles. I thought it was pretty obvious that that was a criticism as opposed to an excuse.

Brander is a good user of the ball and makes the right decision more often than not.But not tough.
Ah Chee is a bit player.Tough but poor decision maker and fades in and out.
Petrol looks the goods but i dont think he is coming on in our current environment.Too soft and couldnt even spell tackle..
Cole is tough but sometimes bites off more than he can chew.He wouldnt be the first guy booted.
Rotham....Good mark but hes like a deer in the headlights.That said i remember how bad Glass was early in his career.
Nelson is another nearly.Safety first.Great left foot just refuses to use it.
OAllen is a potential star but hes either injured or got a severe case of the lazies!
Sheed is living off "that " goal.Hes the clanger king.Does he ever look?
Gaff and Sheed together is just too much "slow"
Waterman is another nearly.Stars in a winning team.Like a lot of our players.

Churchlands SHS Motto - Aim High

Ledwards in against the team that didn’t want him, Nelson dropped.

Just the three changes, the least since before the bye. Nelson, O’Neill and Hutchings to battle it out for the sub spot, I’m picking Nelson with O’Neill to carry the bags and Hutch and Vardy (edit: I mean Williams) to play for the Beagles.

 

[BlueandGoldforever]

Edwards, Petrol, Rotham and Langdon on the bench.

 

[Cursedsword02]

Surprised Petch kept his spot in the side tbh. But I'm glad to see Ledwards play AGAINST THE TEAM THAT DIDN'T WANT HIM!

 

[MrWoollie]

So 1 x debutant (congratulations and well earned on Beagle form), and 1 x in for 2 injured outs. Edit - plus the med sub in.

That's telling 'em. That's putting a rocket up 'em after losing to the worst team in the AFL on top of 2 previous putrid performances.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Good ins, very happy with those.

Pity the outs suck. 2 forced + Nelson.

It's almost like we haven't delivered a steaming pile of Mr Whippy these past 3 weeks, topped off with an embarrassing loss to a basket case on our home deck

Amazing. After Simmo said all week he wouldn’t drop any senior players, he hasn’t dropped any senior players.

 

[new breed]

Two key star Eagles in doubt though , so changes are on the cards .

I didn’t think we had any star players, just overpaid mediocre ones.

 

[ep2018]

Reeks of desperation. Pretty sure Kelly and Yeo would have been rested this week had we won on Monday.

This week we told the players for sure they are on their last chance....

About the 20th time.

I've danced with this bride and she's ugly.

 

[gazzathegreat]

so no-one other than Nelson got dropped for the humiliating loss last weekend?

Soft as s**t Simpson. Grow some balls and make some of these underperforming senior players do a stint in the WAFL

 

[Grahame]

To be fair I think Hutchy has a hell of a lot of a better body of work behind him than Nelson ever has or will.

I think fair to say Hutchy has a hell of a lot better body of work behind him than ahead of him.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Can't go too far the other way gaiz.

Our leaders tried to do "too much" against North.

 

[Grahame]

Surprised Petch kept his spot in the side tbh. But I'm glad to see Ledwards play AGAINST THE TEAM THAT DIDN'T WANT HIM!

Petch very very narrowly kept his spot ahead of Cameron, Venables, Winder, Rioli and Jones. Oh that's right they're not available!

Ditto for Langdon.

Ditto for Cripps?

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

The extended squads returning is great, isn’t it. It gives everyone an extra opportunity to melt.
- early in the week when Simmo says he won’t drop any senior players;
- Thursday night when all the senior players are named on-field;
-Friday arvo when all the senior players remain in the starting 18.

Really efficient, spreading the outrage over the whole week.

 

[ep2018]

Should we be worried that Adelaide have picked a very tall forward line?

 

[DanWCE]

Late change? Two mids have come in, none have gone out.

Nelson played mostly wing and Ah Chee played forward-mid.

 

[DanWCE]

Nelson played mostly wing and Ah Chee played forward-mid.

Jesus, I didn't even notice Nelly on the wing. That justifies that then. Hope it doesn't mean Gaff will play inside, though. Gaff chops up in SA. Set him free on the outside.

If West comes in to play fwd-mid I will flip my TV. Get TK into that position and let West be the mini-Yeo.

 

[WCErevival]

Simmo said they wanted to get an extra mid into the team in one of his interviews
