Unofficial Preview Changes vs GWS

[hey shorty]

But we keep selecting him and if the issue is genuine it’s not new.

I wonder what our selection criteria is for Bryce, if this rumour is indeed more than a rumour.

Hey guys, just trying to wrap my head around the Greenwood decision. When we played you guys two weeks ago I thought he was your best (certainly your best mid), and whenever I catch Adelaide games I just see him ripping through packs to get the footy. I didn’t think he was poor last week by any stretch.

What am I missing here that they’d drop him?

How are we supposed to know?Our coach is from your part of the world.

We had to do something. Our midfield is not functioning - can barely win a centre clearance to save ourselves.

Just not sure these changes will do the job, but we will see.

Dougy will do well

Don’t you all remember last week when Greenwood and Gibbs dropped marks, kicked straight to the oppo, missed/avoided tackles, got caught hob and had minimal acts of bravery?

Its not a rumour.

 

[hey shorty]

Would have to be the oldest team running around in the afl this weekend?

Possibly, but Jacobs playing for ROB would have made it a certainty.

 

[GameofSloanes]

While i can understand the melts about greenwood out his form last week was not good. Until the last qtr. But he was dire before that

 

[hey shorty]

Its not a rumour.

Well yes it does seem that way, so therefore how do we decide if he plays.

 

[xchadders]

Never change? Selection this year is completely different to every other year. Whether it's a good change I'm not sure

Never change in doing crap things

 

[Simmo28]

First off shocked about Jacobs, but it’s really only so he doesn’t have a 5 day break against Richmond.

Greenwood out, who would you prefer at full forward as our marking option, Murphy or Greenwood? But we need Murphy’s defensive pressure, he had one tackle and none inside 50.

Douglas in, its crucial we got a 32 year old back in the side, we couldn’t possibly give McHenry a go. What position is Douglas actually going to play? As a small forward? He sucks at that.

Gibbs out, so who is going to tag Coniglio when he’s smashing us?

Hartigan for Mackay, well that’s just a no brainer.

But overall our selectors are fickheads.

Watch fickheads added to the swear filter

Gws are going to put on a clinic Saturday night. This one could get ugly fast. If we stay even marginally close in this game i will be shocked.

 

[Simmo28]

Just imagine how the Bloods players will feel rocking up Saturday afternoon to play this line up
I wouldn't be wearing any Crows gear to this match

I would love to see that side play Carlton [emoji50]

[hey shorty]

So Ben Hart has just said Douglas will play up forward, so again i ask who is the better forward, Douglas or Greenwood who can actually mark, something we can’t do up forward.

In Hughs form it's lineball.

I'd rather us play a forward up forward.

Prepare to be shocked.

Good to see you being your usual optimistic best.

 

[Crowbots are dead]

So birdbrain says the players dropped is less about form and more about ‘ team balance ‘ then why would we have them on the emergency list ? We make zero sense. We will be destroyed. Dumb selections.

If that is the reason, Poholke is better.

I kind of like that we are at least trying to pick a side while considering who we are playing each week. Horses for courses. Never done that before really. Whether we've picked the right guys we shall see

Poholke is never. Ever. The answer

Is it because your Hero McKay isn't playing?

 

[Cleric]

So we pay massive overs for Gibbs, and then 18 months later we are dropping him every second game. The person who did this deal needs to be held accountable. But nobody at Adelaide is ever held accountable. He didn't deserve to be dropped the last two times. Also, the amount of people here who are treating the rumours of his gambling debts as a fact and the reason the club is dropping him is laughable. Not only that but people are adding in that Carlton were also aware of his debts when you have no idea if he has debts and what Carlton did or didn't know. I know for a fact he wanted a trade as his GF was suffering PND in a big way and was quite unstable because of it. Nothing to do with debts.
The club has lost the plot with selections this year. Something at the club is rotten, and I would not be surprised if we have another couple of players such as Keath and Greenwood who leave this year.
We just stink as a club at the moment.

#dadsarmy is the PC term, no?

Interesting selection to say the least. I feel this is Dougy's last chance in the seniors. If he's unable to lift to AFL level. He will be dropped immediately.

Thor seems like the bloke that will cop this on the chin and be better for it.

If we manage to pinch this one..... is that enough to justify selection? Yes in my book. Do all players part of a win get automatic selection? Hell no. They still need to play their role as expected.

 

[MRB37]

Is this for real? What’s his addiction to?

Gambling is the repeated rumour.

I will give you all with a fun fact to ponder about.

From HT in the Eagles game to HT in the Demons game, we were bashed 19 goals to 8.

Im still adamant that the Demons lost, we didnt win.

 

[Freshj]

He panics every time he gets it and gets brushed aside every time he tackles. If that sort of player is a ‘solid piece’ in our side, we might as well not bother

Panics? Blokes gives himself so much time with the ball, sidestepping people with ease. He's soft, and his forms been down, but he isn't a panic merchant
