Unofficial Preview Changes vs GWS

[Murray2503]

Douglas. Get ****ed. No sauce is a win. Atkins wtf.

 

[thebirdman 24]

Greenwood wasn't great on the weekend. Maybe their thinking was our midfield is too slow with Mcrouch back and CEY in the team.

Don't mind Douglas inclusion, but I am sick of the yo-yo with Gibbs. He was okay on the weekend once put as a tagger.

Glad Mackay got dropped. Small wins.

 

[hey shorty]

I'm not really sure what the strategy or thinking is behind these selections. Since our winning streak we seem confused

Greenwood poor form.
Gibbs..... issues.
Mackay rubbish.

 

[Truck25]

Oh boy this threads gonna melt

You bet, Can't believe the dropped DMac..OMG, they must be rebuilding early

 

[jackster83]

Hopefully the Greenwood non-selection is purely to keep him fresh for the Richmond game.

 

[MRB37]

Expecting Greenwood to come in for Sloane but this club is out of its damn mind dropping Greenwood, way to piss him off in a contract year.

Guessing it's due to speed through the middle of the ground. We got opened up pretty easily by Melbourne, GWS will make us pay if we give them that much space again.

No whether Douglas is the answer to that issue is another thing entirely, but it's probably not the worst idea in theory.

 

[Jack is Back]

Wow. Interesting. Greenwood? Surely injured...or maybe team balance?

Gees Gibbs though. There's something going on there.

He is not able to play three games in 12 days. A rest or restricted minutes in the Twos make sense.

In the last two weeks we have played two games in draining conditions in Queensland and NTwith a tough slog against the Eagles in the middle.

Player management is critical prior to the bye, we must win at least one of these matches.

We don't do that, but it would be nice.

 

[displacedaussie]

Greenwood was quiet against Brisbane, but he’s been fine the last two weeks.

WCE: 24 possessions (17 contested) @ 66% and 13 tackles.
MEL: 20 (10 contested) @ 85% and 7 tackles.

Why Greenwood? Can only assume it's fitness related due to his injury. Atkins should consider himself extremely lucky.

Gibbs? Getting stupid now. The rumours are true - just leave him out for good.

 

[1990crow]

What does Gibbs having a large gambling debt have to do with getting picked to play?

Yeah let's give him a gold pass in a contract year, works so well for DMac

 

[CrowinNT]

Bryce needs a complete break from footy at the moment

 

[Geoffa32]

Gibbs out rumour I heard confirmed.

Mackay rubbish.

Why yo-yo Gibbs in and out over and over again? Decide whether he is good enough and stick with it.

As for Greenwood, is he really offering less than Atkins or Murphy? Poor form seems very harsh

Puts huge pressure on your life.

 

[SaltPeter]

Gibbs and Greenwood both named as emergencies. Wouldn't be surprised that surprised if Gibbs comes at on Saturday for Sloane

 

[arsene wenger1]

Greenwood dropped? Atleast play him forward

It's a tough one, especially if being involved helps him, but he's still having struggles day-to-day/week-to-week. Like, i'd wanna say just go away until you get your life sorted, but it's rarely that easy and his greater welfare has to be considered.

You don’t drop Hugh

He's become so obsessed with gambling that he's asked Don to decide selection with a coin toss.

 

[Murray2503]

The Gibbs situation is strange. Where is the youth we are blooding for next year? Instead we wheel back Douglas. FMD

 

[thebirdman 24]

Atkins is very lucky. Hope he has been put on notice.

Totally different player to Atkins or Murphy, so the comparison isn't really valid.

Was barely noticed for the last 3 week's.

According to Pyke you do.
