Preview Changes vs Adelaide round 18

[Mulldogg]

Revised changes.
In: H Edwards West L Edwards Foley O'Neill
Out: Barrass Ah Chee Langdon Rotham Sheed

Yeo probably going to miss with an “ankle sprain” (read reoccurrence of OP) so unfortunately there is no chance of Sheed being dropped as much as he deserves to be.

 

[Trouto]

Adelaide weather forecast for Sunday.

loss inevitable.

Simpson to pick Williams and Vardy

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

yeah we are SO far off finals its not funny.

We can barely put any good footy together so dont know how we'll win enough games

Our dry weather footy is still good we just can't use our strengths in the wet .

In wet weather we are a bottom 8 team in the dry we are a top 8 team .

 

[Cuzz09]

Culture?? Well we currently have one of a team thats soft and accepts pathetic performances under the guise of credits in the bank no matter how badly someone has consistently played so at least tanking stands for something .

At the moment the club stands for nothing but a laughing stock.

before that it was a successful premiership winning culture and a couple of years before that our culture was drugs.

The whole culture conversation is a pile of shit

Revised changes:

Doubt we end up changing 2 many now we have some key injuries...

I think Yeo will play it out but have doubts on Kelly as he looked to struggle with that knee throughout the game. IF he doesnt come up then i guess one of Hutchings or Xon come in for him.

Out: Barrass (Inj) , Kelly (Inj), Ah Chee, Cole
In: Hedwards, West, Ledwards, Foley

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

In: Hedwards, West, Ledwards (unused sub), O’Neill, Williams, Waterman, Foley

Out: Barrass (hamstring), Ah Chee (hand), Kelly (knee)

B: Sheppard, Hedwards, Hurn
HB: Rotham, McGovern, Duggan
C: Gaff, Yeo, Sheed
HF: Cripps, Darling, Langdon
F: Ryan, Kennedy, Allen
R: Naitanui, Shuey, WEST
I: Cole, Nelson, Ledwards, O’Neill, Petruccelle, Williams, Waterman, Foley

Ledwards and O’Neill to fight it out for Ah Chee’s spot, unless Yeo misses too, then they both play.

Williams in for Petruccelle if they decide they want extra ruck help and don’t mind going stupidly tall. Don’t think they’ll “manage” Kennedy with all the other players unavailable.

Foley possibly in for Cole or Nelson if they want to scapegoat someone who’s not quite a senior player.

 

[THE A5]

Barrass being out might be a blessing in disguise. It might actually force McGovern to finally be accountable as a defender.

Hope they don’t throw Allen into defence

 

[HAPPY BUDDHA]

It really doesn't matter.

Out: Gov, Darling, Sheed, Gaff, Cripps, Langdon

Nah Sheed stays, Gov Darling & Gaff definitely need to wind their necks in and have a stint in the WAFL.

Everyone had a bad day but senior players not giving a **** is deplorable.

will be smacking his lips this weekend, going against a lazy and unfit ruckman

 

[THE A5]

Darling has been so out of forn and was trash last week but thought he was one of the only players against Sydney that gave a **** and was quite decent

 

[RanaNaved]

Hope they don’t throw Allen into defence

Edwards will come in and lockdown, Gov will play the same.

Is Tex playing this week? Don’t think he is physically capable to go with the Texan yet

What’s the alternative? Do we send Allen back?

 

[THE A5]

What’s the alternative? Do we send Allen back?

No I bring edwards in but get McGovern to actually earn his salary by playing on Walker. Edwards can play on young Riley

 

[Astro7]

Out: Champagne football.
In: Attacking run+gun football.

 

[ghostbat12]

Fair point that, but we have fallen pretty far to be fair in the effort and leadership stakes.

Hutchings in wont make McGovern defend properly but it will give someone who actually runs both ways for a change

Yes he will provide effort (maybe) but in long run, there is no value to be gained there. Young players need exposure otherwise they will leave. When in situation we are in, if oldies don’t shape up, you push them out and go for youth.

I am for changes in coaching structure. Team responded well to assistants who are head strong, pyke and Mitchell. Every coach has their strengths and not sure if accountability is Simpsons. But he gets kudos for providing support which is often more needed than a rocket.

Anyway, bring pyke back as an assistant I say!

).

Perhaps we can get Sammy back next year while Clarko vacates his seat?

 

[garlic munchers]

Barrass being out might be a blessing in disguise. It might actually force McGovern to finally be accountable as a defender.

McGovern's idea of accountability is to shake a random fwds hand at the start of a match and again at the end.

Can be confusing when that fwd then discovers one of Barass, Hurn or Sheppard is actually playing on him.

"What's 261?" we could have also accepted our average losing margin.

Nah all it means is Hedwards will have to cover for fatty McGovern's man instead of barrass

 

[kaiserchief13]

Simpson again proving what a joke he is. Make a hard call for once in your career
