Prediction Changes vs Brisbane

[Contested Marx]

Lol predictable.

2 weeks it took.

 

[DaTBird187]

Darth Ryder and the hobbit squad

Great band name.

Norwegian Black Metalists do like Tolkien.

Bush league, hillbilly coach who has a boner for bush league hillbilly footballers.

“Phwoooar! I wish I had you at Bell Park, Sammy”.

Bracing for a monsoon they are #prayforbrisbane

Not what I’m seeing

Sam Gray isn’t a crumbing forward. Sam Gray plays as a marking target who spends most of his time trying to get a mark of the year nomination and falling over.

Agreed.. but there's no doubt he'll be played forward.

 

[tribey]

I’m about to do the most South Australian thing ever and inform everyone OIM CHANGOING MOI TEEP.

 

[PAFC66]

Who's the forwards coach...? Bassett isn't it? I have a hard time believing this was his decision.

 

[El_Scorcho]

I don't think I've ever felt physically angry at team changes before. I've always just shrugged or sighed but this is infuriating.

Twice before for me.

One was when we lost Trengove and Carlile in the Showdown and then replaced them with flankers, costing us the game next week against a $5 outsider Essendon side.

The other was exactly the same situation selecting for a game against exactly the same opponent 5 years ago. We have a poor game not well suited to key forwards, we've got a blue chip KPF who has a quiet game because of that, and we drop them for Sam Gray against Brisbane.

 

[PAFC66]

PAFC where KP forwards come to die

 

[melanChronic]

Nothing like a brainless, pissweak early selection meltdown to completely evaporate any excitement for what should've been a great game. Now all we have to look forward to is the ball getting bombed on the head of Sam Gray one out.

Seriously pathetic from Hinkley. The definition of insanity etc. He needs some help.

Yeah. 40% chance of less than 1mm according to the BOM’s Weatherzone. They’ll be wading through sludge I tells ya!

ps - unplug your phone you’ll screw your battery

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

I can see that stupid smirk Ken does in my head as he announced Gray is playing.

 

[PowerBaz]

I new after he kicked a few goals he'd be in....... I thought Hinkley had changed.....

He's not the only one here... If anything most big team selection decisions have been ripped away from him. This is just PAFC culture.

Humidity may have affected your sarcasm detector.

 

[manureid]

Lol. Without searching back I am pretty sure I may have (tongue in cheek) predicted Gray in for Marshall.

Should have known it was not a joke. Looking forward to the usual S Gary one out in a marking contest against blokes a foot taller than him as we dust off (2 weeks in), the slow, 35 metre kicking, post hitting from 10 metres out, target missing, turnover midget forward line.

 

[PowerBaz]

So Farrell was kept out of the SANFL side as he was close to being in the team, Sam Gray kicks 4 because he played so he gets the gig???

Clearly not a decision Bassett wanted then? as he would prefer Farrell no? am I missing something?

We all know what Sam Gray delivers, do we need a re-run, he isn't the future is he?

 

[Magus]

And to think we were having a discussion as to whether or not Frampton should come in for Marshall. Now nobody gets what they want.

 

[PowerBaz]

We can only hope Bassett unlike Lade seems to be able to organise players.... Maybe its Sam Gray reinvented?

 

[PowerBaz]

We will be talking about Frampton all year, probably time to move on from that discussion.

 

[ROBBBO]

I'm ok with it, Gray will be much better than what Todd dished up last week, unfortunately the young fella was a bit of a liability and needs to find some form.

History shows that whoever gets a week off as travelling emergency goes back down to the SANFL.

He'll sure find that against South Adelaide.

 

[finbarr]

And so it was, with one fell stroke of the selection pen my enthusiasm for the season was sapped.
