Preview Changes vs Collingwood, Rd 5, 2021

[Biggie]

Please direct anything football leg related here. Which is something I am not sure I'd ever thought I'd say.

Analysis - Does Zac Langdon have footballer legs?

Hi Guys There has been a lot of debate recently about one of our gun new recruits, Zac Langdon. He is yet to get a fair run at it because of a serious concussion suffered earlier in the year, so I would hate to bring up stats at the moment. What I am interested to know is...does this gun...

Doubt it. Apparently he would have to have surgery or rest for at least 4-6 weeks. If he has Achilles tendinitis for more than 6 months he probably needs surgery and he would be out for the year. The risk is he tears his Achilles tendon and he is out for 12 months because the Achilles is being weakened by the inflammation.

 

[Chris_6678]

Wonder if they want to risk it with the hard surface.

Isnt that was pretty much killed Buddy during the 2018 season?

 

[Wedgetailed Westerner]

I’m talking about leg strength ie. the deadlift, Steph deadlifts 400 pounds at present. That would be our record at the moment by some margin? Like this is basic fact. Look it up before you mouth off

Look at the photos ffs. Stop looking at the calves and actually look. Shueys upper legs are much stronger and more proportioned than Langdons.

I was thinking the same mate, his upper legs are way too big for his calfs. Chicken leg effect.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

A fair chance Vardy will be a IN it seems. Trying to match up Grundy around the ground it would appear

do we go in mega tall yet again haha

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Not 100% sure but would be more unlikely then not.

Collingwood are mega tall themselves, especially if Darcy Cameron comes in which appears a chance

 

[Doashuey]

Well if Vardy is in, I hope he can provide similar to his 4 goal effort in the WAFL a couple of weeks ago. I dont like the change (if it happens) but hope he can gain some confidence and some of that 2018 form. I wont be holding my breath but.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Wait for it

In: Vardy
Out: Hurn

 

[FKASC]

Lol Vishy gets doxxed in a changes thread, this week has been truly something

 

[WCErevival]

In: Vardy
Out: Jones

 

[RookiePick]

Need some runners but can't see us dropping enough talls to make a difference.

Out: Bunga, Waterman, Jones

In: Witherspoon, X'On, Legdon

Didn't we 'tag' Grundy with Redden (I'm thinking it was 2019... but maybe wrong on that). I don't think aerobically or athletically Vardy could go with Grundy around the ground. If we are concerned about a higher rate of stoppages then I guess Vardy in makes sense, but otherwise surely we look at more aerobically gifted players than Vardy to stay with a player who is an elite distance runner.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Vardy should only come in if Allen isn't right, way too tall otherwise.

If we're worried about Allen's body rucking, then split his ruck time with JD and Gov. That's 25-30% game time split 3 ways, they'll all cope.

Elite runner you say? Ainsworth it is

 

[The wily weagle]

If Vardy must be brought back into the side, it is imperative that he is under no illusions of what is expected of him, and the consequences of not meeting those expectations.

4 possessions is an unacceptable level of output at AFL level. The match committee must make it known to him that should he serve that up again, he will remain in the WAFL on a permanent basis unless both Nic Nat and Bailey Williams are injured

I cannot help but think after last weekend, we are potentially going into the match too tall again

 

[Biggie]

Just maybe the MC don’t expect him to get more than a few but moreso thump into Grundy at every contest?

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

The key performance indicator for a backup ruck is possession count, everyone knows that.

 

[Bacchus]

And other players. A large part of the value of a player of Vardy’s size is being a large physical presence who softens up the opposition and clears a path for smaller players. This is something that Oscar is not really physically equipped for.

Miguel please, back-up or not ruckmen are all about the marks.

 

[Obeanie1]

Look at the pictures of Steph Curry. He would literally be the strongest player we have ever had outside of Fraser Gehrig based on what he lifts

Seriously though, have you not wondered Why every single GWS player has leg issues?

I have heard some reference to GWS players current and ex regarding leg issues.

Whats the theory, they went down a different leg program which was questionable?

Hard surfaces on new decks?
