Preview Changes vs North

[Just4Kicks]

I said the same to the guys at work rpt he other day. I could walk into Arden street while they were training and not be able to tell you who any of them were. Such a Meh group of neat and potatoes footballers

Those comments about opposition teams can be found on every club forum. Apart from the stars and stand-outs for other reasons, hardly anyone can name a lot of opposition players. I am not to worried that some of our "neat and potato" players fly under the radar

That's true.

One example from the Dogs is Tory Dickson. Kicked six against Adelaide, seven against Freo and many bags of four, but fans are still stunned when this 'nobody' tears them apart.

In: M Boyd, Picken, Roughead
Out: Smith, Pearce, Grant (inj.)

We'll be playing our best available 22, no stuffing around. Smith and Pearce are stiff but they served a purpose replacing Boyd and Picken on the trip to WA...they'll eventually get their go. Grant's breathing could be hindered a bit depending how bad the break is so I recon they might take the opportunity to give him a week and get Roughy back in to give Campbell a chop out and a bit more height.

There you go, never heard of him. Does not say much about how good a player he is.

North have a couple of thugs in their backline in Firrito and Thompson and also have thug Ziebell and many-time suspendee-thug Brent Harvey. They will be out to bash our young guys if they reckon it will help them win.

Shouldn't Redpath be left in the team as a visible deterrent?

Time to bring in Minson and Barry Hall as well

Yes, watched Norf against Freo in the weekend with my son, and we both commented on how Norf turn thugs when they are losing.

Dickson sits 12th on the League goal kicking list with 42 goals - he has kicked 7 more goals than the highest goal kicker for Norf. You'd better hope that your coach knows who he is.

I'm sure he does, but this was not my point.

That's five down 17 to go.

They got some guy from Carlton didn't they?

Isn't there a very tall, dark skinned one with lots of muscles that tore us a new arse one game and has not been sighted since?

And there is David's brother

Oh yeah and another tall forward kinda guy who used to tear us a new arse every time we played them, sounds like something sciencey, the dish or something?

I can add 7 more. Bintje, Coliban, Desiree, Sebago, Sweet, Kestrel and their International Rookie Dutch Cream.

Rumours floating around that Thomas will be out.

 

[Bemoreboyddog]

Wells in?

 

[Doggies7]

IN: Moyd, Picken, Roughy, Honey, Webb, Z Cordy
OUT: Campbell, Talia, Pearce, Daniel, Jong, Smith

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Our defence scares me. A lot.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Except for Redpath for Boyd, pretty much as expected. Massive news with ZAINE in!!!!!!

 

[Pannalstaroz]

So happy to see Zaine and Webb in.

 

[Bemoreboyddog]

Roughead as the ruckman. And Cordy getting thrown in the deep end, which is exactly what we've done all year. Bev certainly isn't handling the younguns with kid gloves.

 

[Doggies7]

No T.Boyd, Roberts or Talia as some were predicting. Roughy into the ruck and Z Cordy getting a chance in the backline. Yes we have a smallish backline with Hamling, Z Cordy and Morris, but Webb being back is great and Wood / Boyd will help with intercepts and be disruptive aerially. We have played our best with a smallish backline so i'm backing Bev in here!

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Can I just say other than Tom Boyd , Fletch and possibly Caleb, there's no one in the 2s who desperately should be in the 1s now

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

Best changes we've made all year, dead set.

What about Hrovat???

Roberts will come back in before seasons end I feel.

That defence scares the pants out of me but Boydy back in with Picko provides me comfort.

 

[Dog Rising]

Player #40 Z Cordy. Awesome!! Big job for Red and Rough.

 

[timtamWB]

Only thing now is that we have no tall backs apart from Morris, and they have 3? tall forwards in Waite, Petrie and brown. I'm scared.
