Preview Changes Vs Golden Toast

[dergert]

Hasn't had much of a pre-season coming off injury for a first game. Will be shocked if he isn't gassed by quarter time, seems a strange call to me.

Seems they're stretching out defence.

Wouldn't think Ballarat is the best venue for that but who knows.

Wonder if they would have picked him if they didn't get an extra bye that half the league doesn't get next week.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

I usually get free ticket/s through connections, but had to resort to buying one this time.
Bought it yesterday in the main (western) stand - plenty of seats still available, singles and doubles.

Also still seating available in other stands and GA.

Would be interesting to see figures (unlikely through the club or booking agency), of progressive sales up to game day.

Gold Coast is usually a lower drawer here as well, no one generally wants to watch Gold Coast locally either. And Dogs fans would rather watch another. As low as 6,000-7,000 in the past.

 

[Golden_6]

Macrae not selected again according to SEN.

I cannot possibly justify this in any way, shape or form. He's now had 3 hit outs and we're down Harmes as a mid rotation. Is Bevo giving the middle finger to the media at the expense of Jacko?

Beveridge is a complete dick at this stage. That will hurt.

 

[Mojorisin]

Won't help him Mid game. Just seems like a short sighted selection. Bringing out the new shiny toy without considering you have it for ten plus years.

 

[Mojorisin]

Seems they're stretching out defence.

Wouldn't think Ballarat is the best venue for that but who knows.

I'd imagine he replaces casboult or lukosious goes to defence. Can't see them playing 4 tall forwards especially at Mars.

 

[Golden_6]

Geez what an uninspiring bunch of changes.

We might see Lobb dropped for Darcy but VDM holds his spot again. It looks like Casboult will be dropped to Buku or Coffield will take Walter. Dale might be in danger of being dropped too.

[dergert]

Lol

 

[Doggies_13]

What absolute uninspiring changes and VDM clearly survives

 

[PurpJuice]

No Macrae?? Vandermeer stays?? What the ****??

Please get smashed by ten goals so Bevo gets fired

 

[Bulldogs85]

LOL Bevo can’t find Room For Macrae but can find can find one for Vandermeer

 

[Doggies7]

Oh boy, no extra tall down back, VDM named on field and McNeil on an extended bench with Macrae left out. The melts are going to be coming thick and fast (and rightfully so tbh).

No Bedendo or Clarke to excite us either. Yikes.

 

[Struggle]

No omissions from the squad? Is it possible to get a membership refund?

 

[MaxiBont]

Glad to see we didn’t address any of the problems we had last week.

Thanks Bevo!

 

[Golden_6]

No omissions from the squad? Is it possible to get a membership refund?

The bench suggests that Lobb, McNeil & Dale are all in danger of losing their spots.

 

[Oliver G]

So many positive replies to our selection tweet...

 

[Doggies_13]

Hopefully the bench is dale, Daniel, Darcy, poulter

 

[iambrilliant]

Wow bevo you stubborn stubborn man.

 

[Doggies7]

Out for round 2

Weird, he's been named still? Happy he's still in, hopefully not a late out.

 

[Golden_6]

If the club has deemed Macrae not available for selection then they would be much better off coming out to say that.

Not even having him as an emergency is absolutely taking the piss of supporters. Why do we treat great club servants like this?

 

[Struggle]

The bench suggests that Lobb, McNeil & Dale are all in danger of losing their spots.

Yeah but theres absolutely zero reason McNeil and Vandermeer should even be in the 26

 

[dergert]

So who covers Harmes' midfield rotation?

I'd like to see West but that'd be wishful thinking.

 

[CarnTheScray]

 

[Struggle]

Bevo right now
