Preview Changes vs. Sydney

[Toump Ass]

If I was Petracca I would have gone for the 7 point play: kicked a behind THEN intercepted the kick-in THEN kicked a goal.
Can't believe they don't practice that at training I run through it in my backyard all the time.

 

[Deemanding]

Not that I would expect us to drop him, but was there something wrong with Windsor on Sunday?

6 disposal, only 1 of which was considered effective. A couple of mung kicks. Way down on his normal output.

Another reason I despise this club. Geelong will take players and make roles that suit their abilities i.e Blicavs, Cameron, Smith, Holmes, Stewart

We make roles up and jam players into them. Windsor isn't playing his preferred role

I'm thinking that Lever returns too early, wastes the surgery and causes more damage.

Be cautious with injuries and give him another managed week in the VFL!

 

[schmuttt]

There is zero reason to rush Lever in but we all know they will. Also back to Oliver and Viney negating each other.

 

[SugarHealey]

We've insisted on giving half of our list a crack at playing KPF this year, why not give Lever a go lol. Can take a grab at least

Play Lever up forward, to get in the opp defenders way, in support of Petty.
Lever also has a good set of mits.

* We need to keep our winning defensive model together. Remember lever is the slow-mans capital 'L'... direct it a'L'ong the boundary, high and long as she goes, mateys.

Pass from me on Lever into the back-line. We already have slolem down back, to slow us right down.

 

[Bluelegs]

Play Lever up forward

No!

 

[SugarHealey]

No!

OK... leave lever out.

 

[Bluelegs]

Would much rather that than play him forward.

I like you, sugar. Your ideas are a bit different and I think that adds something important to forum discussion.

Since you are honest, I will try to be also. This idea is one of the craziest ideas I’ve ever heard.

Having said that, I would enjoy seeing it happen because it would be genuinely hilarious. Lever kicking a goal is one of the all time funniest things I have ever seen.

On balance I’m with you. If you can’t be good be funny

It’s honestly not the worst idea I have heard.

Also I’m hoping that over this year and next, everyone on our list gets a crack up forward

It is without a doubt the worst idea I've ever heard.

So you would agree we should absolutely do it!

Good to have you on board, Legs

Main thing is I just want them to keep Turner in the team and leave him down back.

Do I think Lever would make a good forward? No lol. But they're gonna pick him anyway, might as well do something insane. Couldn't be much worse than some of the KPFs we've tried, and I just want them to prioritise the kids.

Have we thought of trying him as first ruck?

We gave James Harmes a go so…. Let’s at least keep our options open

But you have heard of it

Have him crumbing at Charlie Spargo's feet I reckon

My youngest lad started footy this year in the under 14s. He's currently typecast as a defender but the coach doesn't bother changing on windy days so he gets to hang out at full forward when the ball won't ever get there because a 20 metre head wind will prevent the chain of kicks required to score at this level.

That's about the scenario where I'd be ok with Lever being a forward. Maybe just chuck him there in the first half when we're playing soccer.

Let’s face it, we don’t have a lot to lose

 

[Scythe]

I suppose a much more reasonable alternative to keep Turner in the team and down back would be dropping May at some point. But perhaps we're not quite ready for that conversation yet.

I would turn up to watch the upcoming game against that team at that location if I could attend just to see it!

**** that, play the campaigner at CHF first or something. He's still one the best kicks and marks, Give the campaigner a job.

Also, that is the funniest, and possibly most astute, coaching move I have heard of on suburban grounds.

Put everyone who isn’t a forward in the forward line when the wind favours the other end is very good gear

Heck yeah! I loved that I fell for it for a minute before I figured it out.
