Preview Changes vs ST KILDA. Elimination final preview (GABBA- Sat 3rd October). Happy now??

[Optimistic Dog]

Contrary to my user name inwardly I usually get less confident as the came approaches although in 2016 this was not the case after we beat the eagles. As the game gets closer and I have a look at the the midfields plus our disposal weapon in Caleb I am growing more confident we can get this done.

So... if we beat the Saints and Brisbane beats Richmond, then we play Richmond next week?

Oh, my. I will need a Xanax with my Lucky Meal next week then.

I want to get Richmond in the GF - and beat them by a point and shut their ******* loud mouth supporters up once and for all

Shocking for SuperCoach but it does make sense.

They need to change super coach so you can reverse changes whenever you like provided the players inbvolved havent played. This business of being locked out at the start of the game when you dont even have a squad to work with in the second game of the round suck balls

 

[grassman75]

Need Vandermeers speed for Hill.

Agree, but i have concerns that his hammy's aren't top notch - we dont need another situation like happened v Geel.

I love what he brings though and if he comes in it has to be for Roarke even though he had a blinder last game

The winner of this Elimination Final will be disadvantaged for the Semi Final. Not only will the winner have one less day to recover, tomorrow's match is going to be played in the afternoon sun, which is likely to take more out of you than playing in the evening.

Not that it would happen but I'd select both Cavarra and VDM and replace Lipinski and R.Smith.

Unlucky to be dropped but I feel pace and intensity is just so crucial in finals. Would like to select players who could shutdown the rebound of stkilda rather just picking utilities with no definable role.

I still don't know what position lipinski/smith could end up this weekend. Could be picked anywhere.

Cavarra didn't deserve to be dropped. He was dropped after the melbourne game in hurricane like winds, which make reading the drop of the ball just about impossible.

I’d say pace and intensity are 2 of Rourke Smiths strengths.

Is rourke smith quick?? With his ACL issues I wouldn't really classify him as a speedster. Certainly nowhere near the JJ/VDM/Richards variety.

You know we’re talking about Roarke Smith and not Bailey Smith?

Yes he’s a limited footballer who is quick and gives 100%.

I have no stars to back up my opinion but he certainly doesn't look quick out on the field. The one thing that comforts me about him in the team however is he is massively more accurate in front of goal then those around him

Key Dogs forwards fit to face Saints

Injury concerns cleared for Aaron Naughton and Mitch Wallis

From this I’d guess we’re going in unchanged

Have we gone in unchanged at all this year?

I’m not saying he should stay in the team I just don’t think pace and intensity are the reasons I’d be dropping him. Maybe he’s not as quick as I assumed he was but I thought that was one of his strengths when we drafted him.

 

[Dogs 13]

We have our concerns about VDM being right, but geez Hannebery must be a big risk for them.

A few acls will do that to you.

Yuhp and he will be named. They've confirmed only one change. Jones for battle.
They've said hannerbery trained 'harder then most' during the week, and is 'better for the run' last week.

Yeah I saw that. Wood, sorry I meant good.

From a goal after the final siren courtesy of a dodgy free kick.

Or a free against a dive by grimes

Nah, have them lead the free kick count by a long way and lose.

 

[Bulldogs Legend]

Yes. And?
I'm commenting on our team's chances in the finals who cares about the teams that didn't make it.

And so am i

Sunset at 5.48 in Brisbane tomorrow, so we'll be playing in it for a half.

I hope so, cause the last couple of times we've played the Saints, we've only played half a quarter.

 

[Oliver G]

If we go in with no changes we'll have five players making their finals debut.

Bruce
Gardner
Keath
R. Smith
Williams

Team must be out tonight surely?
