Changes vs Hawthorn

[*PAF]

It won't happen but Stewart on Hodge would be the perfect match up.

 

[Arsene Wenger]

Stewart is the right size but has never quite excelled at AFL level. I think Brad Ebert goes to Hodge when he plays through the middle.

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

Sorry to intrude guys, but I have a few questions.

With General Admin tickets, can I sit near the top of the Wanganeen stand?

Also, heard a bit about the $5 beers near the tennis courts, where exactly?

Thanks and good luck!

If you upgrade and get a reserve seat, I believe you will find yourself in the wanganeen stand at the very top somewhere or atop the southern stand.

The Game Day villiage entrance is just to your left after you reach the end of the new Torrens pedestrian bridge. Be sure not to find yourself on top of the stairs in the SMA bar called something ridiculous like 'the fans bar'.

I don't see it. Stewart either plays as a goalkicking running forward/mid or he doesn't play. Hodge would beat him soundly.

Stewart had some great games as a tight defender and can run all day like a midfielder.
His games as a HFF were more out of necessity than because its his best position.

He is strong, good overhead and can run with someone like Hodge all day. If left alone he can jag more than a few goals. It would keep Hodge honest and not able play the loose rebounding role.

Stewart should absolutely be under consideration for selection. I'm doubtful he'll get called up but he'll be in the mix.

.... What I'm having trouble with, is Moore now being considered a top 30 player instead of a top 25 player at the very least. How is Ah Chee so highly rated after a 3 disposal game as sub on debut and Moore is left in the SANFL with Wines out injured? It's madness I tell ya.

Happens all the time in all sports. Its all about opportunity ... Moore has been injured, lacks some competitive hitouts, and is held back to get this in the Maggies, while Young and (to a degree) Ah Chee shine in the Power. Is Ah Chee rated better than Moore? Of course not, but he got the opportunity, and as Ken has mentioned in interviews, he doesnt tend to drop a player that is in a successful side. So it will be interesting what selectors do if both Lobbe & Cornes come back in next week.

This simply isn't true. And I'm really confused as to why, in order for people to pump up the tyres of certain players, they feel the need to sink the boot into others.
Andrew Moore can be an absolute weapon and has some very, very good attributes. And as Forza said, there is simply no reason Moore and Young can't play in the same team, especially with Wines out.
Ah Chee has barely played a quarter of AFL football and people are already declaring he has a higher ceiling than Moore? Really?

Finnbarr, stop getting into people who have a judgement on a player, its there opinion and they are allow to have it, you have been going on about the need for people to pump up tyres on certain players while sinking the boots into others, well its just not true and you should have e good look at yourself, mate its not your position to be the defender of every fringe player

by the way as much a I don't like Moore as a player (looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane) id rather him in than Ahchee any day

Thanks for the advice.

The only player we've had that was actually successful in shutting down Hodge is Logan.

Btw, during my time on these boards I've usually found that people who deliberately use poor spelling and grammar ("Finnbarr" c'mon) are more often than not alias troll accounts.
Anyway, this isn't facebook. If people are going to pour scorn on certain players for no real reason they generally will be questioned by others. Just as you believe it's your right to criticise certain players others will believe it's their right to defend them. Get used to it, buddy.
Have a good day.

Everyone's allowed to have an opinion, provided it's not racist, homophobic, threatening or overly derogatory.

But everyone's opinion is also allowed to be challenged.

Welcome to the internet.

I recall a young Tom Jonas doing a decent job of it, perhaps not for a full game though.

However, now with Hawthorn's mosquito fleet, we'll need Jonas in the back 6-7.

Carlile - Roughead
Trengove - Ceglar/McEvoy
Jonas - Bruest
Hombsch - Gunston
Pittard - Puopolo
Broadbent - Resting Mid
Krakouer - Rioli
