Prediction Changes vs Richmond Round 14 @ Metricon

[Miguel Sanchez]

We’re a Redden for Reid away from the podcast going at 100% on changes for two consecutive weeks.

Changes weren’t that hard to guess

Out: Allen, Nelson (both injured)
In: Williams, Hutchings

(Just ignore the later post where I changed my mind)

 

[Wild Kelly]

Biggest issue with Williams in the forward line might be that he’s barely played with Kennedy and Darling, so he may inadvertently get in their way a bit. Allen had the same problem for a while.

His biggest issue will be the misguided missile wearing no. 41. He jumped into marking packs several times last week when we already had two talls contesting. On one occasion he got pretty high but didn't bother putting his arms up! Needs to stay down and crumb in these circumstances.

Ready to watch the game. Williams to take that massive leap over Soldo and to tap cleanly down to the clearance midfielder king NicNat.

Who slams it on the boot into the 50 where its collected by noted small forward Kennedy for a running snap on goal. Tigers stunned early.

On one occasion it looks like he purposely spoiled Ryan as if he didn't know he was there and didn't think he could take the mark himself. Baffling. That said, one of his better games all in all.

Ah Chee should be banned from flying for it unless he’s one on one with the defender. You’re not Flyin Ryan you campaigner

 

[Happy Mastenator]

I’m excited! Love a quick turnaround for purely selfish reasons in terms of more eagles games sooner. Will not love it if visibly run out of gas in the last

 

[WCE Wizard]

So we are missing Nelson, Waterman, Reddo, Yeo and Allen wow

To be fair they are missing Prestia, Edwards & Atsbury

So, is it possible that a centre bounce could have Bailey rucking to Shuey, Kelly and Naitanui? Well, Nic is the best clearance player in the league. Just saying.

 

[WestCoast05]

Biggest issue with Williams in the forward line might be that he’s barely played with Kennedy and Darling, so he may inadvertently get in their way a bit. Allen had the same problem for a while.

His instructions should be to get out the effin way and be prepared to provide a sturdy step-ladder for Ryan and Ah-Chee

 

[YippeeYiYeo]

Im a bit late but YASSSS Bailey Williams about bloody time! Looked so dangerous in the pre-season games jumping over campaigners in the forward line and at centre bounces. Fingers crossed he has a great game and consigns Hickey and Vardy to depth. Travesty that Williams hasnt debuted already.

 

[DanWCE]

Has Brander been intentionally left off that list?

No Pet either or Ainsworth who all played same year as Allen.

 

[Dylan82]

Hutch to Lambert or Bolton Dylan82 ?

It would have to be Lambert, for the reasons previously mentioned:

Because Lambert is their only genuine two-way runner. The others all look to push forward into space, rather than covering it.

Shut down his influence and the Tigers start leaking cheap goals.


Richmond 2020:
Lambert less than 15 disposals: (1-4) Opp Av. 80.0
Lambert 15 or more disposals: (7-0-1) Opp Av. 40.0

As mentioned by others, Bolton's initial pace off the mark is probably too much for Hutchings to contain in a one-on-one. Considering Richmond are using him to peel off the front of the stoppage into space, I would expect whoever is deployed as the stoppage sweeper (in Nelson's likely absence) will also get the role for marking Bolton's runs in these situations.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

If Lynch isn't in MRO hot water again this week we wouldn't have done our jobs. Get it done, Nic Reid!

 

[Astro7]

Jermaine Jones was arguably a win for us, but not for him?

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Jermaine Jones was arguably a win for us, but not for him?

Didn’t include anyone who was making their club debut but not their AFL debut

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

 

[Shmiddy15]

Oscar played his first game after Brander did, so the list is accurate.

 

[FKASC]

Oscar played his first game after Brander did, so the list is accurate.

What about Ains?

 

[ShaunWCEFC]

Ebony and Ivorrrrrryyyyyyy

Side by side in the centre circle, oh Lord, why don't we?

 

[southcoast]

What about Ains?

Ainsworth debut in round 8, 2018 v Giants at Giants stadium.

And..............the result was...........

Giants 8.13 WCE 12.14 a 25 point win.

Wow, that really shows the height difference. He's only a bit taller than Dusty who stands 188cm.

 

[RookiePick]

What about Ains?

Debutated before Oscar.

Good idea to rest Nelson while we can, one of our most improved this year and we need to keep him healthy.

Plenty of opportunity to rotate all our defenders over the next couple of weeks.
