Changes vs Hawthorn

[Byrons Firen]

Don't have the latest update but wasn't Polec on crutches.
Paul Stewart had another good game v Nth Adel. We could be without Wines,White and Polec.
The Krak and Young both started v Nth Melb so they are lock ins.
If and its a big if we jagged this one it would be huge plus. Thank f**k we won last week.

If we have like 4 players out injured then I guess the Hawks play the Port Adelaide Magpies.

(Based on the logic of Hawthorn supporters "Box Hill" remarks about a year ago).

 

[Forzaport]

Assuming Lobbe is ready to go and White and Polec are ok:

In: Cornes, Lobbe
Out: Wines (inj), Ah Chee (omit)

Mitchell to sub.

Nothing against Ah Chee, it's the standard last in first out with returning senior players.

Based on the logic of Hawthorn and Adelaide supporters. Remember we only got to 10 and 1 at the halfway mark due to luck, all those oppo injuries and not having a single injury for the entire year ourselves.

 

[Lefti93]

kane for kane.

Lobbe/p stew for ollie.

If lobbe is fit, he is first choice. otherwise p stew to defence, & brogsy used in the middle.

 

[Willsy10]

OUT: Wines, Ah chee, Mitchell
IN: Lobbe, Cornes, Moore

Okay, so now Moore can't come in i'm thinking about jumping on the Port Always train and getting behind Paul Stewart. I didn't think someone could like something more than Brad the Brain likes Teal but i reckon Port Always likes Paul Stewart more, so i'm assuming he will be pretty happy if he gets selected. He did play a ripper on the weekend, been solid all pre season in fact, and i'm all about rewarding form.

Who let those ice cream vendors on the oval?




(apologies 1954)

No problem NH, but I still reckon it was an apt description.

 

[badbeats]

Out: Wines (inj) / White (inj)

In: Lobbe / Cornes

 

[Power Pete]

OUT: Injured (well, Ollie is out and looks like White and Polec might be outs too)

IN: Fit (not sure Lobbe is ready) Paul Stewart, Amon, Cornes, Logan, Colquhoun and Neade are my picks.

 

[Lefti93]

what's wrong with polec?

 

[wollieoines]

I think white & polec will both play, both are a 90 percent chance

 

[davesnothere]

what's wrong with polec?

Seen on crutches but I'll pretty sure he's been seen on crutches after a game before and been good to go the next week.

 

[PepeSilvia]

Yeah, being on crutches doesn't mean much. If you ever come back on the same flight as the team, it's not uncommon for two or three of the boys to be on crutches purely to reduce swelling.

Polec won't be out. This isn't the first time he's been on crutches after games this year.

Yeah, this.

 

[UrbanElectric]

If Lobbe comes in, there might be some merit playing Neade to crumb seeing that Schulz, Westhoff and Ryder will all feature up forward.

No, no merit at all. Neade got annihilated against The Swans. I'd hate to see what the best team in the AFL would do to him. He really has had an awful start to the season. Surely he would need to really impress to be considered again. He wasn't impressive against North on Saturday.

Out Ollie Mitchell

In Cornes Lobbe

 

[port always]

sub White

 

[PepeSilvia]

sub White

May I ask why you'd demote someone to the sub role the week after they've kicked three crucial goals?

I didn't ???

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Forecast is for rain on Friday and Showers Saturday - slippery conditions and big bodies needed.

Because he can still do some damage as a sub if his ankle isn't up to a full game?
