If true, good for us !

 

[valkorum]

Yeh I read that one as well - a nice bonus for us if true.

 

[Pam Grier]

Will they bring someone like Zeph Skinner in? He'd have a bit of confidence against us following his pre-season 4 goal blitz

 

[Clay Davis]

He is rubbish. The only difference he will make is that if we're getting belted, rather than a 10 goal flogging in will be a more sedate 6 goal flogging.

In the downhill skier stakes he makes Des Headland look like Michael Voss.

 

[sumavich]

nasty. I reckon he's a pretty good player. He's Vice Captain after all.

Bit harsh to say he is rubbish but I get your drift as he does like things going his way and but he is a good finisher. He has been way out of form this year anyway mind you

 

[Clay Davis]

He's certainly a good player, just as Des was (when on). Des was also in our leadership group.

But if he is out of the side, they'll probably put in a guy who works hard when things aren't going his way.

 

[Kenny_01]

Agree completely with Clay. Probably was in danger of being dropped. He is vastly over-rated.

 

[shibz_1989]

Are you talking about Gianuifhfhfhfeueue or Skinner?

 

[Higs]

yeah, a plus for them if anything. Lazy footballer

 

[Nickos66]

Not so good is the ins in Lake & Gilbee..

 

[Bender571]

Not that there's anything wrong with that

 

[paccraig]

Believe Skinner played VFL reserves last weekend; kicked 4 but wasnt in the best
No obvious matchup for that type of player though unless say Koops make a comeback (...or Sibosado I guess)

 

[jeemak]

Skinner is a fair way off. Needs to play some senior football and get used to that step up in terms of fitness required and pace of the game.

More likely to see Djekurra or Wallis take Gia's place I would have thought. Veszpremi kicked four in the Willy seniors on the weekend but broke his finger at training on Monday, he might have been an option otherwise.

 

[shibz_1989]

What about Hall? I heard a rumour that he left the training track early.

 

[jeemak]

Hall left the track, as did Williams. I get the feeling we may have ramped up the training intensity (not necessarily on the ground) in the last few days and some blokes have had to pull up a bit.

If Hall doesn't train at the end of the week prior to the game then he's still a chance to play. Williams on the other hand will miss if he can't get on the track in the next couple of days.

This pretty much sums it up.. i would be more confident if this pea heart was playing rather than some youngster who is actually going to try his guts out.

shows how much you know about footy with that statement

 

[tacopavlich]

i agree. it shows he knows alot more about footy than most dog supporters for one.

 

[Freo_4eva]

your right, with all those junk time goals... handball receives over the top in the goal square... and token pressure in the forward half of the ground he is a star of the comp

The guy is a model playing footy.. wouldnt put his head anywhere near some contact, too bigger risk for the out of the game paydays.. fair enough really, i'd do the same if i looked like that

 

[Nickos66]

I'd much prefer Gia played rather than Wallis.

 

[Gus]

If you watched our semi-final vs the Swans last year you'd probably change your mind on the Gia being a downhill skier calls.

5 goals down at half time and he was clearly our best player in the second half fightback with three goals and two more direct assists. As well as being involved in the leadup to others.

Also led the Dogs for goal assists last year.

 

[Mingo]

People seem to have no idea how hard he works. But ahh well, ignorance is bliss
