Preview Changes vs GWS (Elimination Final)

[Pugz89]

Little less nervous now after seeing the teams. We've done it once, we can do it again. Schache will spend time in the ruck, wouldn't mind him actually starting there and English up forward from the first bounce to throw a curve all at GWS.

Wood on Cameron, Cordy on Himmelburg and Young on Finlayson is my guess.
Wonder if Crozier gets the job on Greene, try and keep him accountable.

Would have liked Dickson in the squad, plays well in finals and has the wood and mental game over Heath Shaw

Can only assume he isnt 100%. No other explanation.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Giants side is pretty strong

No dramas giving West a game, but really thought Dickson would have come in.

Will all come down to the midfield.

Hope we protect Bont as no doubt they will come after him

 

[footyfan000001]

Hmm prefer Dickson over West. He’s been there done that.

 

[perro_loco]

Im preparing my post game melt template blaming it on Beveridge's selections.

Ballsy selections from beveridge.

Cannot say i am going into this game as confident as i was in 2016.

I did not go confident at all. IN FACT I WAS A TOTAL M3SS UNTIL WE WON! I AM THE SAME NOW!

And what happened last time they tried the faux tough guy stuff against us, they were embarrassing

Im also concerned for English as we have no back up that can match that thug mumford physically.
No doubt in my mind that if theyre losing at 3qtr time he will come out trying to end careers

 

[SupercededMan]

If there's one player that will make Shaw lose his mind, it's West.

Or Smith

 

[glenashley]

We don't need a backline as the ball won't go there.....

Dicko’s not named in the VFL team. I dare say he’s the travelling emergency, so would be right to go.

 

[dergert]

Shitting myself now.

How will we go as favourites in a big interstate final?

 

[Mr. Walker]

Still has Sam Reid in the side. Amazed he’s still getting a game.

I know he is the enemy now but Sam Reid's story is a great one on perseverance. Got the absolute most out of himself. All credit to him.

Check again, he's there at half forward.

Feel no ill will towards him. Just amazed he’s in their 22 in a final. Good luck to him.

Two real questions for the side was Young vs Trengove and Dickson vs West.

Young’s been excellent since he came back in and not surprised he kept his spot.

Very surprised Dickson didn’t come back in. Thought Dickson had been great since after the bye and is a proven finals performer (and a proven Shaw destroyer). Can only assume he is not quite 100% fit and they don’t want us to be one down early.

West has been impressive in his first two games. Looks like he is ready for the big games and the high pressure, don’t think he’ll let us down.

Still got me stuffed how he is still getting a game on that list

Duryea played great on Ablett so id put him to Greene then Crozier is free to help out the high ball while Wood sticks on Cameron.
If Dunkley, Macrae and Bont tackle like the machines they are then Crozier eats up those under pressure inside 50s.

Whitfield is going to get his 30 no matter what hopefully they are mostly in our forward half but id like to see Hayes semi tag Zac Williams who can cut a game open if given the chance.

Absolute must to get quick inside 50s into space so Naughton has a chance to fly and Davis will give away free kicks.

Schache needs to present at kickins. GWS will expect Bont to be the target if there is nothing short. Must not kick to English as Mumford will out body him.

s**tting myself now.

Might not be favourite by bounce time. $1.82 Dogs Plastics $2

Here they come

 

[AFDogs]

Just had a thought that maybe West will play a run-with role on Toby Greene, that's the only reason I can see him being selected over Dickson.

Don't forget West has been kicking qutie a few goals at VFL too.

 

[The Slitherin' Snake]

Ballsy selections.
If we can take Williams and Whitfield out of the game, we're 75% of the way home i reckon. They get so much drive from those 2

 

[Bulldog Brent]

$1.92 all. Evens.

It will be interesting to see who lines up for Footscray tomorrow, and whether Bevo is keeping a couple of tricks up he sleeve with Dicko & Trenners names as emergencies.

 

[footscray1973]

Bont won’t need protection, and Haynes will be sh1tting himself every time Bont is in his vicinity. Our blokes will just play the ball - hard. Bont, Dunkley, etc won’t be fooled by faux Gnats machismo, they’ll just hunt the ball.
GO DOGS!!!

 

[Doggies_13]

Wouldn’t be surprised if we use west as a defensive forward. Last time we played them Williams provided a lot of run in the first half before being well held in the second half.

Can’t see Bevo playing any games just had never been his style to make late changes
