Preview Changes vs Carlton

[Leslie_Chow]

Out: McPhee (suspended) Roberton Hinkley

In: Sandilands Mundy Mellington (everyone else injured)

Even if they aren't fully fit, our two best players will offer so much more than most others. It's obvious we roll over in last quarters, so we need a good 3 quarter effort from those two.
So confused why we even brought Hinkley in, and Roberton just doesn't look like doing anything ever

 

[Lach72]

Just watched Hill half chase Jones.

**** a duck.

 

[Clay Davis]

But he had shin splints 6 months ago!

 

[peppy la pew]

Jones does his job very,vey well.

Making little boys cry.

Big pre season is needed for the boy

 

[groggm]

Jones seems to carve us up every time we play them.. would love to have him running around for us every week as you know what your going to get from him..

 

[samseenee]

Jones made Hill look slow tonight... something isnt right with the lad! (SURELY!)

I think he's probably carrying something. He's lost a yard or two if pace, but geez he's looking ordinary and soft, in parts.

 

[groggm]

Ins: Griffen, Faulks, Pitt, Mellington/Walters?
Out: McPhee (susp), Roberton, Hinkley, Pearce

Think we need to bring in Faulks to swing one of Silvagni/McPharlin forward, while seeing what a couple of our younger guys can bring to the team.. Roberton is not up to it yet, Pearce too slow and Hinkley unlikely to be on our list next year.

 

[Notorious_29]

Out - Roberton, Hinkley, Mcphee and Kep
In - Sandi, Mundy, Griffin and Mellington

 

[Wizard]

Hill out until he grows a set, weak as water that kid. Just soft nd a long way from being even close to a topline AFL footballer.

Bingo.

 

[Bradesmaen]

He is still building his tank. Jones is one of the fittest players around.

Haters gonna hate. Especially Wizard who has proven to know nothing.

Would you love for him to turn into an inconsistent Davey, Motlop type? Just keep patting him on the back after every game and thats what he will become.

No excuse for him from doing the one percenters. Hardly even bothered to chase Jones when he had the ball.

I'm not patting him on the back. I was simply stating a fact.

 

[RickSanchez]

Disgusting last quarter. Good effort in the 2nd and 3rd, they seemed to be a bit fired up but just gave up. Hill was awful, can't defend his performance tonight. Ballas was very off the mark as well. I have all the faith in the world in these guys but they were disgusting tonight.

Not sure if its worth risking Mundy and Sandi. Hope Griff is alright

 

[332docker]

Out:
McPhee, Bradley

In:
Mundy, Sandi

enough said....

 

[Plugga]

Mundy wont be ready imo

IN: Sandilands, Bucovaz, Schammer, Houghton
OUT: Roberton, Hinkley, Pearce, McPhee

 

[Chris25]

Ideally, I'd just be keeping it simple this week....

In: Sandilands, Mundy
Out: Bradley, McPhee

Nobody is knocking the door down in the WAFL, so it will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow. Hopefully Mellington has a good game, because we really need another small forward type as opposed to playing midfielders down there.

 

[RickSanchez]

Bradley wasn't great fair enough but the delivery into our forward line is terrible. Just long bombs and hope for the best, Saints actually find and hit targets.

 

[Lach72]

Lower, Barlow, Mzungu were good through the middle. Put Pav forward ffs.
Blues have no decent backs at the moment.

Mellington, Sandi and Mundy if ready

Pearce and Roberton out plus McPhee.

 

[Scham]

Sandi in for Bradley (f@*k he was disapointing!)
Mellington for Hinkley (so was he!)
Faulks for Roberton
Bucovaz or Anthony for McPhee

 

[Danny82]

IN: Sandilands, Mundy, Anthony
Out: Roberton, Hinkley, McPhee

I actually thought we had one of our better teams for the year and put in one of the better efforts. It was good not to have Crowley, Palmer and to a lesser extend de Boer turning it over. Hinkley might be a fast runner but he is slow footballer, to slow to make quick decisions under pressure, i think that will be his last game for Freo. Roberton just makes me cringe every time he goes near it - why does he always seem completely buggered as soon as he comes on?

Jones has it all over Hill and does every time he plays Freo, I dont know why Harvey just left Hill on the wing on Jones.

 

[Seppo]

Mundy wont be ready imo

IN: Sandilands, Bucovaz, Schammer, Houghton
OUT: Roberton, Hinkley, Pearce, McPhee

Mundy IS ready.

I was in the changerooms after the game and I heard officials saying Mundy had passed a fitness test this morning and is fully fit to go. Sandi on the other hand might not be ready and will require another test later in the week.

On injuries from this game most of the guys seemed to pull up well in the rooms, althoughMayne looked worse for wear with 3-4 packs of ice strapped all over him. That hit to head in the first really knocked him around. He was staggering around the forward line like a drunk and I swear he was about to fall over before the trainers got to him. He seemed to struggle in that last qtr and could need a rest, maybe he can come on as the sub next week.

 

[Quay Club]

Bradley wasn't great fair enough but the delivery into our forward line is terrible. Just long bombs and hope for the best, Saints actually find and hit targets.

This is the story of our season!

It was very evident tonight and in the Derby.

Without stating the obvious Pav back in the forward line would be a good start against Carlton.

 

[E Shed]

I'm actually liking Pav playing back, getting some good drive from him out of the back half.
If Mundy is back then halefreakinglujha, McPhee is obviously going to go.
Mundy for McPhee, Mellington for Hinkley. Leave Clarke as first ruck, he's killing it.
