Preview Changes vs North

[Super Hans]

Would of liked Smith to play again, but can't really fault the changes. Stoked to see how Z. Cordy goes! Bit worried with Roughy vs Goldy.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

With Zaine playing, does that means everyone played, injuries aside?

 

[Dogsman16]

Loving Roughy as main ruck this week. Goldstein won't carve up around the ground because of it.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

What about Hrovat???

I'm not a Hrovat hater, but he will struggle to play behind those selected.

 

[Boof09]

Surely we can't go in without a key back or a key ruckman depending on were Roughy plays?? Redpath a liability in ruck and at full forward. Has got junk goals in junk games and is no ruckman so why does he play?

 

[Boof09]

One injury to a big guy once again leaves us exposed. May Toyd in for Grant late?

 

[TiAn_]

Thought it was Ayce coming in for Campbell and nearly spontaneously combusted.

 

[go you pups]

Waite and Petrie will kick at least 10 between them

Roughy will get flogged in the ruck

Norf by 45

 

[Dizzy Stuff]

8 debutants for the year - that'd be the most of anyone, no?

Who'd have thought that 5 out of last year's 6 draftees would debut in their first year.

Hamilton hasn't been injured? I don't know about Fuller. Kelly's been injured I know though.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

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.

Boyd is in AA form, he's a huge in. He provides stability and he doesn't get beaten. Had a great year.

 

[Bont2Bruce]

Goldstein might get the all-time hitout record this week against us.

I expect Crameri and Biggs will be asked to attempt No.1 Ruck role at times again.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Campbell not playing VFL so didn't come up from his corkie. Talia not playing either.

 

[go you pups]

 

[BRWB]

I'm not a Hrovat hater, but he will struggle to play behind those selected.

Not a hater just not a rater. Just surprised he didn't get gig this week.

 

[Doggies7]

If we can stop the clean delivery in and have our defensive structure in place again like the last 5-6 weeks, we can win this game with the run we can generate off Petrie, Brown and Waite. That's the key to winning this.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Hamilton hasn't been injured? I don't know about Fuller. Kelly's been injured I know though.

True. Hamilton hasn't. Good call. Fuller too. Ta.

 

[Zeno The Great]

Good to have Roughy in and give Z Cordy a go, just hope we aren't exposed by their tall forwards, if Roughy rucks all day means Morris, Hamling and Cordy have to man up on Waite, Petrie and Brown. Very dangerous on paper. Would have preferred Wilbur or Roberts to come in to have the extra back up, but in Bevo we trust.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Everyone relax. This team will run #lolNorf off their legs.

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Team doesn't seem quite right. No matter how move the configuration of the players we are down a big (either back, ruck or fwd)?

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

Roughead is no slouch in the ruck. Mumford is one of the biggest slabs of meat I've ever seen and Roughie took him to the cleaners.

The #23 is awesome between the arcs, I reckon it'll limit Goldstein's impact if anything.

 

[Dog Rising]

I'm scared too. We are incredibly short. Turn the jets on and run fellas.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Jesse Stringer is in Dermott top 6 forwards in the game. I'm sure that he'll get a kick out of that wherever the **** he plays now.

 

[Dogsman16]

Roughead is actually a really good restart tap ruck. Has a great leap. Apart from the center square I don't really care for tapouts. Natanui does 95% of his damage when he has space for his mids to run into. Which virtually only happens at the restart. Generally conjestion stops those rucks from getting really clean clearances. Have to stop goldy around the ground which I'm comfortable Rough will do.

Means big issues for Wilbur though.

 

[Super Hans]

Surely we can't go in without a key back or a key ruckman depending on were Roughy plays?? Redpath a liability in ruck and at full forward. Has got junk goals in junk games and is no ruckman so why does he play?

Cordy is a key back. Him, Hamling and Morris should be able to hold it together.

Roughy has to play ruck.
