Preview R12: Changes v West Coast

[TheLeftFist8]

I wouldn't be giving Wigg his 1st game playing away against WCE at Subi

I don't like this attitude.

I'd back Wigg to handle the heat of the contest over there well above Henderson.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

I think Milera needs to go out and ply his craft in the SANFL for a while.

Hendo must go, I'd take Mackay over him at this point!

Would love to see Menzel come in, played well yesterday.

 

[daniel_4tw]

Thommo and Brad Couch in for Douglas and Milera.

 

[Huntercrow]

Why ?? Yes he can take a ripper grab but he's barely getting it. He plays at home next week but MUST perform

Is his brother playing? Could be an interesting night.

 

[hey shorty]

Is his brother playing? Could be an interesting night.

Late withdrawal with illness; should be back next week. Have Shooter run round with Jezz

 

[Crow Envy]

No ...when they were, the subject of ALL posts was the "Golden Pass " .......the Crows and Noble in particular won't play the kids ...and when they do they drop them after 1 game

Fast forward and the club is doing what this board f ......g carried on about like gooses .....and BF is still not happy

I feel dumber for reading this thread ......going to watch something intellectual by comparison .....family guy

Have you got any genius insight you can share?

 

[GreyCrow]

Sorry for the intrusion.
Love how most of you seem to be suggesting changes despite coming off a clinical performance- bodes well for your team's depth

Thompson was rested so should be an automatic return. Depending if the club wants a longer break for him

The rest of the rubbish is everyone jumping on their fanbois

 

[Footypie32]

I'm betting:

In: Thompson, Mackay

Out: Douglas, Henderson

 

[Crow Envy]

I'm betting:

In: Thompson, Mackay

Out: Douglas, Henderson

That's a pretty safe bet

 

[Gethepill]

He has been very good in the SANFL since his 2nd or 3rd game

I think Otten would be in front of Doedee at the moment. And agree that he has improved since the start of the season but
will need to continue before he gets a call up

 

[SellarStardom]

Thommo for Douglas seems obvious.

Hendo would be in danger, wigg is small and more of a midfielder than a wing, woukd expect club to want run so Mackay most likely.

The only other individual in danger is Milera who is about a 10-12 possession players at the moment. This is about what you would expect from Menzel and going on his game against Sturt coukd deliver.

BCrouch wont get selected

So most likely:

In: Thommo, Out: Douglas

Possible
In: Mackay, Out: Henderson
In: Menzel, Out: Milera

Different players in that Otten cannot play on medium sized forwards at AFL level anymore (no agility or speed).

Doedee 10x the athlete and looks far more versatile.

deleted cos I'm too drunk to even understand my own post.

Goodnight

I would also back Wigg ahead of Hendo however with Hendo hopefully out this week I would be looking elsewhere before Wigg

Wigg hasn't trained with the Defence group all year so he is unlikely to be considered a replacement for Hendo

OK

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Can't believe the number of people saying drop Milera. He's not doing enough... what?! We've cried out FOR YEARS for the kids to get a chance to play. Stop pumping games into old plodders! Back in the youth!

Now it's actually happening and we expect them to instantly get 20 touches every single week? Kids will be inconsistent, they'll have some quiet games, they'll have flashes of brilliance. Crucially they'll also learn on the job in the toughest environment and IMPROVE. We're finally using those spots 21 and 22 in the team as a way to develop players and people want to stop doing it. Sheesh.

 

[Elite Crow]

OUT: Douglas, Hendo, Milera
IN: Thommo, Crouch, Menzel

But I think Mackay instead of Crouch will happen

I only would give Milera a rest to try Menzel

And we're still winning in the meanwhile.

Dropping him achieves nothing. If it was a work rate issue, then sure you'd consider it. I really don't understand some people's thought processes.

Henderson can have a rest instead

No, people cry out for the kids to get a chance. They haven't been given a chance in the past.
Milera has been given a chance. He isn't cementing his spot after being given his chance. He now needs to go find form in the twos and let another talented kid have his chance.

 

[Elite Crow]

Henderson can have a rest instead

I think that is as inevitable as is MacKay's return

 

[Crowstar]

There won't be 3 changes after a 15 goal win. No one will get rested with the bye the following week.
Laird had a corkie apparently so if anyone comes out other than Dougy for Thommo it'll be someone for Laird. I'm not saying VB

 

[Sam_Malone]

Dale Lewis on MMM said Matt Crouch would be an out for Thompson.

Last in, first out.

 

[Sam_Malone]

Henderson can have a rest instead

He does that during the 2nd and 3rd quarter most weeks.
