Preview R17: Changes v St.Kilda: ANB, JKH out; Grimes, Michie in

[PerfectFooty]

Shut up.




..I've started drinking again.

 

[Djcjdees]

So who do you guys reckon, Jones or Stretch?

 

[Canary]

I have a feeling both Grimes and Michie will play. I expect Bilius Strech or ANB to have a rest.

Confirmed. I should set up a booth.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

Would have put ANB back in the forward pocket but otherwise happy enough.

 

[LeverPuller]

ANB

It was kind of a moot point.

I said in a post that Grimes and Michie would be better then Jones.

Is it just me or is it pretty damning that JKH gets dropped when we are cryin out for a creative small forward?

Roos' ultra defensive style I think. Saw it Sydney; unless you were Nick Davis, small forwards had to contribute through the midfield to be able to hold their spot. ROK, Buchanan, Schneider, etc.

We've got a creative, goal kicking small forward in Jeff Garlett.

JKH isn't a small forward, more of a midfielder/half forward type.

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

He's just been injured and is out of form - he probably came in too early.

 

[lettuce bill]

I'd be interested to know what kind of role he gets when he goes back to casey. Is it more through the midfield or up forward?

 

[Theseventhhamster]

I JKH is a depth guy. Not really good enough as a forward or mid.

Agreed, don't see him being much at this point in his career. Needs to pull his finger out or it's back to acting imo

It's his second year and he signed a new deal this year, there's no rush for him.

 

[stretcharmstrong]

Yes and no. He's been bad and it's a bit worrying. But Garlett has been pretty consistently good. So I wouldn't say we are crying out.

Toumpas. If only he had acting to fall back on.

 

[deeco]

Or had yet to play any good games, or drafted pick #40 etc etc

pick # dont mean s**t in the end.

All it does is tell you how much of a howler we made.

To be honest, we didn't have a recruiter at that draft for a reason. Just imagine who Prenders would have drafted, could have been worse

Lets just hope the kid actually has a career! (Ditto JKH, don't rate him much right now tbh)

I'm sure he makes a mean kebab. Don't worry, he'll land on his feet.

Im pretty sure we grabbed Pretender's draft notes that were left behind in his filing cabinet after we gave him the arse/he left and ran with it when we drafted Toumpas that year.

The Toumpas pick has Pretenderghastly's finger prints all over it.

Souvlaki!

Not Kebab.

Or spit.

Melbourne round table meeting in the Vault

More annoyingly is everyone in the world said take Wines, even an amateur could see it

Nah boys take toumpas, he has more upside

You'll have to blame Jack Viney - his old man drafted Toump and Jack raved about him on radio that year.
