Player Watch Max Michalanney

[Jeffcrowe]

I had Hamill ahead of Parnell before preseason... but clearly Parnell is ahead on form.

Hopefully Hamill gets a go during the season.

Needs to string some games together in sanfl and get his confidence up

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Agree. MM can go with him in the air & on the ground.

Also, Doedee will likely be needed for the 3rd GWS tall.

Greene has quite a bit of body strength in contests , but different to Liam Ryan IMO

 

[crow2crow]

Did ok on Liam Ryan...

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Yep this is the reason I think he will get games next year especially with Brown retiring

Can play on some medium /small younger forwards as has the agility / speed

Thought I’d bump this as I got one right and will prob get the next one wrong

I also think people can see now he’s not a Brodie smith replacement

A different type of player altogether but going to be very valuable

Presuming he debuts this week and looking forward to seeing his calm head in action

As our Round 1 debutants normally kick a bag of goals, Max is going to have his work cut out for him especially as it probably hasn’t been done from a back pocket since the FIRST EVER Crows Round 1, when Rodney Maynard kicked 3 goals from that position..

Great stuff, selection is going to be interesting

Did Truck also kick a goal in his first ever crows game? Or is my memory starting to fail?

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I think milera and Thilthorpe are the only mystery re selection now

I’m leaning to neither playing

The sub will be interesting …. But it could be Brown

First 3 kicks were goals

 

[Crow till I die]

I wonder who they have in mind for Max to stand this week? I hope being his first game that he does not have to line up on Hogan or Greene straight up. But super excited to see him out there as he really does look to have a high ceiling as a defender for us for years to come

I think he gets the job on Greene and we're just going to hope our team defense is strong enough to cover it. We did give Max the job to take out Ryan two weeks ago, so it's clear we have a lot of faith in him in this kind of role.

Parnell v Daniels makes sense as a matchup. Doedee/Dawson are better suited to being our main interceptors with Worrell being out, giving Doedee the job of trying to run off Riccardi. Murray/Butts would have Hogan/Himmelberg.

 

[Bay62]

First 3 kicks were goals

And one in his last game. In fact last kick iirc?

I thought Brown after the West Coast game. Can play a number of positions at an acceptable level for a sub.

But with Max playing I think the sub could be Milera. Again can play a number of positions and can impact. Plus they rate him highly.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Corey Norris ch 9 reporting Brown to be playing this week

Sub ?

Looks like brown is at least sub if not in the 22

Well that confirms it if true, definitely sub.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Always a sign of a great talent when a skinny rookie like Max can get a R1 debut

I want him on Greene! Throw him straight into it. By all reports - he will love the challenge.

Told ya my memory was shizen.

Another Rostrevor OC lines up for the crows...the more the merrier
