Review Marsh Community Series 1 v Geelong @ Metricon 6:30pm 22 Feb 2020

[GC2015]

This is going to be a very interesting game IMO. I can't wait to see how Rowell, Anderson, Budarick and Sharp go against a near full strength AFL squad while surrounded by experienced guys like Swallow and Ellis. I assume we're going to play near full strength ourselves with the exception of a few guys like Witts. What are you guys excited to see?

SUNS OUT! GUNS OUT!

Looking forward to this. Def be watching after I get home from my friends belated birthday lunch at the pancake parlour (our tradition).

My wife and I do pancake parlour every year for Pancake Tuesday. Love the sweet stuff, the savoury pancakes? Not so much.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Will Brodie to drop 30 touches 10 tackles and 10 marks. It's his time to break out.

Would love to see us run a bit of a different forward line that I mentioned in another thread, look at a mobile forward line built around King. Especially in greasy conditions evening conditions.

Rankine - Sexton - Ainsworth
MacPherson - King - Lemmens
​

I know a couple of these might be under an injury cloud, so feel free to substitute these where needed, but I would like to try something different because I would rather squeeze in better players even if they aren't tall to tackle create pressure from turnovers.

If you really want to play Wright, have Smith and him rotate through the ruck.

I feel we were at our best last year when Sexton was allowed to run onto goals and hitting snaps on his right foot. Lemmens to bring the absolute heat in the forward line and Ainsworth with his speed and leap can act as a second lead up player if needed.

Of course I fully expect us to go something a bit more traditional, but just a thought.

Nice! Yeah I usually get the chocolate chip pancakes with icecream. What's your favourite?

If we are ever going to experiment with 2MP in the ruck now is the time while Witts is out

I thought Brodie was pretty good in the scratchie so I'll be very interested to see if he can back it up against Geelong this week. It's definitely go time for him in 2020 along with Bowes and Ainsworth as well. We need those fourth year top 10 picks to step up to make the kind of strides we want to make this year.

 

[Sunny_]

Guess we can scratch Weller out. No way he plays this week. Will probably mean more Bowes down back.

I like it. King wouldn't even have to lay a tackle with those blokes around him. Wright & Smith could ruck half a game each

Does anyone know if entry is free for Suns Members.
Thank You

Can also rotate Greenwood through the forward line to mix it up a bit, provide mobile marking power, keep them guessing and stop King being double teamed.

Fiorini was on B team in today's practice. Probably just bringing him slowly after off season groin surgery. Holman and Corbett were also on B team.

 

[Sunny_]

No way Holman is in my B team. Must be injury management too.

Can't play everyone in these games.

Yeah, that makes sense. Maybe the next game

Hey guys, is there any reason Rankine hasn't been named? Are they just easing him back in?
