Prediction Changes vs North Melbourne

[Gaffy Duck]

Which unheralded North forward are we going to leave unmanned for the whole game?

Fair chance Larkey or Wood kicks a bag because we refuse to give them an opponent?

FMD Jordan Lewis got hold of us.

Tarryn Thomas

 

[Gaffy Duck]

The bull!

Yep have never liked him he’s a dirty dog. Like him even less now

 

[Luuuc]

FMD Jordan Lewis got hold of us.

Truly one of the lowlights of the whole season

 

[TassieEagle]

Out: Barrass, Waterman
In: Hurn, Hutch

I cant see any way Barrass doesn't get a week. Player had a concussion and made contact to the head.

 

[Beutbrute]

Hahaha, well i give up on footy if barrass gets suspended. He had the ball and only braced himself for viney who was trying to bump barrass. Not barrass' fault vineys a spud

Easiest decision of the year...

 

[Candiru]

Barrass had the ball. He didn't initiate contact.

 

[Beutbrute]

In: Hurn
Out: Cole

Waterman to get another week assuming Hutchings isn’t ready to go yet

 

[Gaffy Duck]

In.. someone tagging Cunnington.

Out: Cunnington for weeks if that’s the case. Doesn’t handle it well

He’s a dirty player and I must admit I’m nervous about him

Wood for 5 I'd say.

 

[Candiru]

Wood for 5 I'd say.

All from uncontested marks 30 metres out?

And Cole will be standing 2 metres behind him, shrugging wildly like "you mean I was meant to stop him marking it?!"

 

[Candiru]

Schofield should play. At least he takes an opponent.

 

[Mattman93]

With Barrass 10m off to the side, picking himself up and appealing to the umpire, shocked that an opponent had the gall to put their body in between him and a gnarly floating intercept mark.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

At this stage too many variables with injuries/possible MRO but I'll say this;

*Give Waterman another week, if he fails again than ok drop him.
*I'd echo the thought of Nelson on Cunnington, assuming Hutch still isn't fit.

The thing about Waterman is: what's his role?

 

[WCE Wizard]

In Hutch, Hurn, Schoey
Out Barras (suspended hope not), Cole , Waterman

Yep bloody Cox and Miocheck, went scoreless against GWS because they manned up and played tight.

We "guard space"!

The thing about Waterman is: what's his role?

A damn good question. After the WAFL game last week I asked if the role he played for the Beagles was the same as the one he played in the seniors? It's hard enough to navigate the huge jump in standard from WAFL to AFL without also having to play a different position.

Simmo changed something up because we manned up in the last quarter. But we are lucky Melpomene kicked 1.5 in Q1

We seem to play him as a high HF/wing/link man. That's tough when we don't have clean ball off HB and he's not quick enough to do what Darling does at ground level.

 

[shooshka]

Barrass had the ball. He didn't initiate contact.

Absolutely this.

I get the 'if you choose to bump then duty of care' argument from the afl, but he didn't choose to bump in this case. Saw a player running full tilt at him and braced. Viney chose to bump, so it was his own fault.

Surely this one gets adjudicated like the Hurn one against the Bulldogs last season. [For those who don't remember, Hurn was about to embed his hip in a Bulldog who clumsily went to pick up the ball. Hurn pulled up short to avoid putting the guy in a wheelchair, while the Bulldog player continued on and headbutted Hurn's thigh. That sweet sweet thigh.]

Agreed. Don't forget that we have our man, Matera, on the tribunal if the MRO does its usual BS. Could make for an exciting week!

If you choose to bump and it results in a concussion, it's a suspension.

Viney to get weeks for concussing himself.
