Unofficial Preview Changes vs GWS

[HFF]

Gosh I hope its Membrey but agree I think it will be Buller given its Steene not West in

West to replace Membrey and we making progress personally

 

[Jen2310]

Both Mcstay and Membrey played in black today, so I think Buller playing for the white team the odd man out.

 

[Smackdos]

Yes,I reckon Buller will be dropped,after only two games too.Did we give up on him too soon?

If it is Buller I wouldnt say we've given up, a spell in the ressies to find form, confidence and work on his craft can only be a good thing.
Well done Steene! Alot of posters have had positive things to say about him for awhile now and playing second ruck against Riccardi is a good introduction to the big time. Well deserved!

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Buller I reckon will be dropped, Steene can ruck.

I wouldn't mind Buller playing at VFL level, getting some goals and returning to senior footy with a bit of confidence.
As this season progresses, l would like to eventually see Buller and West playing in the F50, and Steene playing as our secondary ruck/forward. That would show we are moving onto a new phase of this side going forward...

 

[Peters_Nuts]

Yes Fly! Love this inclusion.

 

[TradeDraft]

Shocked got a Game ahead of West

Guess McStay might be Dropped unless Cameron is Injured

Why? West didn't play in the practice match last week.

 

[rand corp]

Congratulations to Oscar and wish him all the very best in his first game.

Well thanks to stupid VFL Fixtures

Steene did not play last week as well

West can't tandem ruck with Cameron. Steene can.

Go ahead, give me a thumbs down for that statement.

Match up based I suspect TD.

It means we now have a height and leap advantage over Ricardi in the 2nd ruck position. DC and Steene can both support forward or in defence throughout the game.

I suspect they want that extra height advantage over their depleted backline.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

The same thing was said last year but it didn't happen. Instead we kept selecting players with niggles rather than replace them with kids.

 

[granniewolf]

West can't tandem ruck with Cameron. Steene can.

Go ahead, give me a thumbs down for that statement.

Why? It's true.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Excited to see Steene make his long-awaited debut.

At his age, now is the time to give him senior football exposure.

Him just being in the team just gives DC that license to intercept even more in general

so good

Fly's surprise for Steene

Go inside Craig McRae's office as the Collingwood Senior Coach announces that young ruck Oscar Steene will make his AFL debut.

[WanderingDude]

Go well Steene. Cox is gone, you are the one the club wants to play games and develop. Take this chance. Make an impact.

Maybe this is why Fly is hinting at Howe drifting forward.

Either way, I just love that we made a change.

Was just coming in to ask if there would be a video.

 

[Abdul_The_Bull]

DC seemed genuinely happy for young Oscar. That is so wholesome. I'm sure he will look out for him game day.

 

[Apex36]

So looks like it will be

In - Moore Howe Steene

Out - Buller, Parker, Allan

 

[HFF]

We need Steene in to help our ruck situation particularly at centre bounce.

The other two defenders pick themselves

There’ll be a few lucky survivors who could easily have been dropped too

Sounds good to me though i think Ed is a little unlucky

Ned for one

 

[Apex36]

Can’t wait for the confusion from the commentary box when we line up for the opening bounce (yes I know it’s not a bounce but fkd if I’m calling it something else) and we’re lining up with Steene in the ruck and Cameron at CHF.
