Opinion Changes vs Sydney

Loved seeing col Sylvia stumbling out of crown last night at about midnight
Had to be held up by his mate and then stuffed into a cab, regular for afl players to have one big night out?

doesnt suprise me!

I don't mind these but I'd throw list clogger in there instead of marshmallow on the smaller SCG.

For team balance I'd drop a has-been for another marshmellow.

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

Then what the **** did we recruit the guy for, if we already have too many?

I would rather a guy go in and get the ball, than someone pussy footing a contest.

You mean the rookie we recruited, right?

**** me sideways; why isn't Kel Lawrence getting a game as a small forward!?!?

Why isn't Sheahan getting a game!?!?

I mean, we recruited them .. right?

 

[Daniels]

G'day!

SC related. Anyone shed some light why Couch can't get a crack?

Heard Neeld doing the radio rounds on Saturday morning and was asked this. Basically said the kid's only been at VFL/AFL level for a few months (training, playing, at the club) and doesn't want to rush him, but in the same breath said he's doing everything right, so expect a debut soon.
Queen's Birthday is coming up and we've a good history of throwing kids on the fire. Just make sure Maxwell and a few mates are hovering around the interchange gates for when he sets foot on the ground.

Because we like to give some players repeated opportunities to jog around and look disinterested

 

[SJSMD]

Blease would be a good fit for the lack of pace, so would Taggert maybe?

In - Blease, Taggert
Out - Moloney, Bennell

Oh ok. Thanks for that.

Hehehehe! Cheers!

LOL!

Why cant we play Davey down back on there worst small forward and having him kick out at all times, his skill is his best assett now seeing some pace has gone. To me Watts has got to be given the chance to play deep forward, yes he needs to present but he should be told that and if he doesnt well Casey it is until he does. Start playing the young blokes like Taggart, Tynan, Cook GWS and GC are they are going better than we are so it cant hurt....

 

[rhaz]

If Martin comes back, he and Jamar could be very influential. Seaby got comprehensively beaten by Ivan Maric on Saturday. A similar job by Jamar particularly could go a long way.

McKenzie did a superb job on Goddard and was great against Mitchell on Friday night, if we put him on Kennedy hopefully there would be a similar result.

No Goodes is a huge leg up for us too. Still not confident, but if things go our way we could give them a shake.

All i want is to hear the song played after a win.

Taggart would be good, Tynan is injured.

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

Could just give Luke Tynan the 46 jumper and play him this week, no-one need ever know.

How well are the playing at the moment Puppet?

I'm all for giving Davey and Brad Green some more games, think they still have a role to play in the side. But would move them back. We really have a need for some creativity off half back, and these 2 are our best kicks.

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

Absolutely shithouse!!

But the point is, as much as I'd love Couch to get a go... we will be pummeled (to even greater extents) if our midfield becomes any more blue collar.

To bring Couch in one of Magner, Jones, McKenzie or Moloney has to go.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Hmmm, small ground against a team who loves to play what we are trying to play right now. Really tough selection week this week. Tough to drop the guys who have played just 1 game(Petterd, Bennell and Fitz) even though they did sweet FA last week. Sylvia, Davey and Moloney are surely on thin ice and I'd be inclined to drop one of them for a wake up call and give either Taggert or Couch a debut. I'd probably do the following:

IN

Green - play him in defence. we need players who can hit targets coming out of defence on a small ground.
Couch - the time has come to give him a game. dropping Moloney would make a like for like swap.
Nicholson - we need someone who can run with Jetta who is lightning. Nicho is about the only bloke who can get close to him with pace.

OUT

Moloney - sorry mate, time for a wake up call
Bennell - just can't keep carrying him. Swap him for Nicho
Bate - If Green isn't ready, he survives, but if Green is good to go, I'd drop Bate. Had enough chances

* Watts can wait another few weeks. He still isn't winning the contested ball like he was asked to go back and do. And Martin doesn't look fit yet. Give Fitz another week until Stef comes good.

[SuburbanMe]

Bennell out of the team for good.

Leave Sellar Out.

Work out the rest between you.

 

[viney_2_jurrah]

people who are naming Couch, he didnt play last week for Casey so i doubt he will pay this week for the MFC

[scooterselwood]

Hey guys. What % chance you reckon Green will play this week?

Cheers

 

[viney_2_jurrah]

Neeld has shown previously in press conferences etc that he really conscious of the fines you can get for announces teams before 6.20 on thursday... if you listen to the way he answers the question i reckon Jurrah is a certainty.

 

[Tulip]

50%

Hopefully he won't.
