Changes vs Geelong

[drazah]

Sam Gray out for Brett Eddy or Dougie
Robbie Gray out for Monfries

If he wasn't captain, I'd have Boak out as well.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Hartlett out.

Houston in

 

[PepeSilvia]

Boak should not and will not be dropped.

 

[NickFlips]

Sam Gray out for Monfries

 

[RossFC]

Any of Eddy, Howard or Monfries in for Sam Gray.

Hoping Robbie Grays groins are fine in 2 weeks.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Okay..

So we either bring Dougal or Austin to take on Hawkins

Or we move Trengove to the backlines and play Eddy.

Either way the player making way is probably SGray.

 

[Moses01]

No. We do not change our style to suit a team that has supposedly a gun forward.

We will not be dictated to. We will dictate the style.

We'ar comfortably no 1 in the league in defence FFS and we just kept a team to 4 goals for an entire game.

If we bring in a defender, then we take out a defender.

Hartlett out for Houston.

Some people need to get over there fear of teams with a capable and sizeable forward or 2.

1 matchup will not cost us a game.

Also please don't roll out the "but Patton and Walker destroyed us" argument as in both of those games, those players or their performance was not the reason that we didn't win.

 

[QPower]

This is a huge game - Port have let the Cats own us for a decade.

Time the players showed they are sick of and won't tolerate it anymore.

 

[ROBBBO]

Yeh surely no changes

 

[Jakksynn]

I'd be happy with no changes. S Gray the only one in danger of losing his spot imo. Monfries to replace him if he rips it up in the 2's next week

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

Sam Gray wasn't too bad today. But if we want to be the best then we need to be ruthless at selection.

 

[LeoMessi]

No changes for mine.

 

[SgtSchulz]

I hope we pulverise them and Boak gets 3 votes.

 

[DazzaTys]

I think S Gray did enough to stay in. Only change would be R Gray out for Monfries. However Ken in his pressed reckons Robbie is okay. Why does he tackle and chase like a 97 old great grandmother?

 

[scottjr]

No changes unless we make a call on Robbie's injury. 6 weeks if it's OP?
Would have Gus as in if that happens.

 

[Kingfish73]

Gus big game player. I would roll dice with him. Either S Gray or R Gray omit/rest if needed.

 

[chiwigi]

Monfries and Eddy for Gray and Gray.

 

[Steve Dore]

Unchanged unless the club finally acknowledge that Robbie Gray needs time off to recover from "groin soreness" in which case Monfries to come in.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Robbie out until he is 90% fit (currently 65%).

In: Monfries

 

[Andre]

S. Gary for Dougal or Eddy. Eddy the better forward, but Dougal gives that flexibility to go back or forward, swapping with Trengove to get the match ups working best.

R. Gray for Monfries, to give him more rest. A fully fit Robbie will be needed later in the season. I'd rather he rest now, whilst we have a full list, then him break down end of season near finals (where we may not be blessed with such a full list of replacements to boot).

 

[Coobk001]

I don't like that we are basically playing Robbie as a key forward. Eddy should've been playing that role and Robbie probably playing the role of AhChee. Nothing against AhChee, he was good, but structurally for the first time this weekend it was clear another tall was needed.

Other than that S Gray was good, he just needs to convert. Robbie was hopeless but how can you drop him. Boak was awful but still had 30 touches and 5 shots. DBJ in defence made several blunders and keeps running under the ball and allowing his player to get goalside but we probably persist with him and hope he learns. Hartlett and Pittard still look like they're going at half speed hopefully the break will help them.

So I think for mine I'd go:
IN : Eddy
OUT : AhChee

But I would expect we will go in unchanged. Am also hoping Young gets a solid rest for that shoulder and doesn't play for either side this weekend

 

[Peck]

I reckon Sam Gary will be very unlucky and make way for Monfries.

Woud not mind seeing Eddy or Howard come in as well.

 

[Magus]

Ken acknowledged that Ah Chee was given a shot because his SANFL form was outstanding and that good performance in the twos makes the ones want to keep their spot.

If Monfries, Eddy or Dougal perform well this week then I presume they're the next in the running to make the Power side.

 

[JohnHinckleyJr]

eddy in the whole sgray as the main ff is annoying and getting old
