Preview No Changes vs Saints

[BACCS]

What's the point in naming Martin and Shaw after one week in the sanfl?

CEY better play, of course it'll be at the expense of Brown and not Reilly though.

How ****ing uninspiring are those selections after 3 smashings in a row? Port has even named someone from their rookie list for his debut, that would be taking a risk though...

Also, I thought Steven was meant to miss another week?

 

[I Lost My Keays]

CEY for Thompson hopefully

 

[BACCS]

CEY wont play on Sunday, emergency only.

How do you know this with any certainty?

 

[TheMetricSystem]

How do you know this with any certainty?

Because I do.

 

[Bicks]

Hasn't exactly set the world on fire this year. Looks like they are preferring junior at this stage. No comments on Pets yet?

In fact Grigg's performances this year have been totally "underwhelming" which is very disappointing because I think we all had high hopes for him to take the next step and really tear it up this season. His past history showed he can become a bit complacent so hopefully this kick in the ring this will spur him on to bigger and better things if he is dropped to the ressies. Really thought he could have been a dark horse for Rising Star honours this year.

 

[mattymac]

Petrenko. Lol

 

[GROTTO]

I'm sure Petrenko trained well.

You guys dont understand, Petrenko has run a lot of kms in the preseason. - Actually thats all I have about his usefulness to us.

 

[Ravenous Crow]

I wouldn't even care if Grigg had single digit possession counts so long as we still got the ball into his hands around our forward arc a few times per game.

Time for another one week Brodie Martin experiment.

I love that we have a clear plan for the future easily discerned by our selections.

 

[Bailey01]

****ing drop Petrenko he is so shit

 

[1990crow]

Why is Petrenko named? Did Sando even watch the game last week?

 

[fabs33]

At least Porps isn't back.

 

[GROTTO]

A poster mentioned earlier that they spoke to Sando this week, I would love to hear his thoughts on what his gameplan is for our forwardline and how it is functioning.

There was far too much hype for him coming into season 2014. Had only played 5 AFL games (with 2 of those as the sub) late last year against relatively weak opposition.

We need to ensure that we get him at least 15 games no matter what to ensure he is ready for a big crack at 2015. Kerridge is a little further along, but I wont be surprised or disappointed if he is dropped halfway through the year as well.

CEY
Martin and Shaw

Martin has repeatedly shown he is not up to it at AFL. Good SANFL player but that's where it ends and I don't see why Shaw should come back after one week. Hopefully CEY is the only inclusion.

I hate the statement good SANFL player but not up to AFL. This only applies for players with slow leg speed as AFL is quicker however anyone with speed who is a good SANFL player will normally be a good AFL if they are allowed to settle even after a few games and find his feet. Some players are much maligned and get dropped to often which kills their confidence

2nd highest goal scorer. You really don't rate goal kicking do you? If we drop Grigg we've dropped our 2nd and 3rd (Lewie) highest goal scorers. Genius for a team that can't kick a score to save its life

 

[hey shorty]

Those tackles must have helped Pets for this week........

Im not one to criticise selection often but these seletions are a joke. How Pets is in the squad is beyond me. Grigg I can understand as he hasnt really performed as we had hoped but I would have thought he wouldn't play due to injury.

Brown hasnt been super either but has done more than enough to keep his spot. Hoping CEY gets a gig but I cant see it and its also good to see Lynch playing ressies.

If we go in unchanged people have the right to be filthy with our coaches, but if Grigg and Brown play SANFL its even worse

 

[mattymac]

Relax everybody. The tank is on. Come at us pick 3.

 

[GROTTO]

If we lose on Sunday, Adelaide will not be big enough place for Sando to hide.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Clearly it's Grigg and Brown's fault that we're losing.

 

[Elder van Berlo]

For those of you playing at home, we have kicked 32 goals in 3 games this season, and two players who kicked 9 of those between them (our 2nd and 3rd leading goalkickers) are playing in the SANFL this weekend.

 

[GROTTO]

Actually this is wrong. Its been discussed that the Demons will or could get the first three picks, first - for coming last, 2nd for losing a player and 3rd as compensation for being a shit team for the last few years.

 

[Dewy006]

Thoroughly uninspiring, however expected. Petrenko, really? And lets drop Grigg, the only guy in the team (bar Smith) who can hit a ****ing target consistently, and don't even get me started on Martin, whats the definition of insanity again?

Grigg playing SANFL? I thought I saw him in the squad of 25 for AFL

 

[hey shorty]

Sando was a Sturt man too, hes screwed his old side !!!

 

[GROTTO]

Some more fun facts, Pods has played 4 games against the Saints and kicked 6 goals.
Betts - 13 games for 16 goals.
