There’s no one “fit” in a pommy pub...

Well it was the biggest pub north of London .....reckon there were 30 us squeezed in

 

[macdaddio]

W.Langford in ?

 

[madhawksfan]

Can’t understand Langford coming in. His form this year has been ordinary and he hasn’t dominated at BH.

Surely we’d better with Glass or Swiss in the team. Glass could play back and we could push Doc forward.

I hope Langers plays a solid game but this is a head scratcher.

 

[LRobbo]

surely due to the conditions Langford is back.
Geez the Crows look vulnerable

Likely going to be wet and needs bigger agile bodies around the footy

[Jaeger]

Cheney's in for them

 

[Flag08]

Langers is better in the wet. His fumbles blend in more.

 

[JoeHawk]

Must win for Silks 350th. Pitty Cyril won’t be there.

 

[Hawkthorn33]

Clarko this didn't work against the Swans what makes you think it's about to work vs the Crows?

Anyway I look forward to Langford fumbling the ball, missing his targets by foot and laying the one tackle this Saturday night.

 

[Hawkthorn33]

Langers is better in the wet. His fumbles blend in more.

That was the consensus for why he was picked in the Swans game. Turned out he is still mediocre in the wet as well.

Okay enough Langers bashing from me. I hope he has a blinder for Silk and is able to turn his form around for the rest of the season.

Go Hawks

Or would you prefer TOB almost marking and with his 5 possessions. Our depth is a huge concern atm

 

[Roddy]

So we're going to experiment with Cegs as a permanent tall forward, yeah?

 

[Todman]

In : Langford
Out: 4 points

 

[MitchHomieQuan]

I guess Clarko thinks that if he just keeps playing Langford eventually he’ll become good again and flick back into beast mode. It’s in him somewhere..

 

[Agent Smith]

Hmm... those INs and OUTs...

 

[RIOLINWITPUNCHS]

Jesus.

Like the out but why Langford?

Try someone else for * sake.

If anyone tells me again that clarko doesn't have his favourites then i will point you to this selection.

Play 1 of the kids FFS.

 

[thejockey]

Interesting , I’m backing Clarko in with this change .
Was in great form with his costume on Monday so clearly in good coaching form and on a roll.

Plus his ‘horse’ costume was better then Pykes power ranger effort ........surely that counts for something in this game ??

 

[grumbleguts]

We can still all watch the soccer the most entertaining way......


In a 10 sec. highlights clip on the news.


Just a joke soccer fans. Settle...down, save that emotion up for when your team may or may not doesn't score.

FIFY

Go socceroos.

 

[Rev08]

We are middle of the road battlers with zero premiership hopes yet we keep picking a bloke who is clearly not afl standard. Embarrassing.

You can put a line through JOR and Lovell now. Gornski.

I'd prefer they tried someone entirely different that we haven't used yet this year tbh.

Let's see if O'Rourke or Lovell could play better in the firsts? You're right though, our depth is cactus!

 

[WWSD]

O'Rourke and Lovell aren't ticking the KPI in the VFL apparently so they were never going to play, even though any one of them would've been ideal. When Sloane returns from injury he effectively replaces Langford in the best 22.

 

[A Cut Above]

So we're going to experiment with Cegs as a permanent tall forward, yeah?

I don't see how much worse than O'Almost he can be. At least he's a bigger body so opposition defenders may have to pay him more respect, and coming back from the knee his form is likely to improve whereas O'Brien has flatlined. The only things in Timmy's favor is he may get to more contests and is a straighter kick for goal. Cegs has the advantage of offering better tap work against Jacobs.

 

[TylerDurden]

What are Langfords KPIs?

To fcuking be able to breath?

Gold. He's a Clarko special. Just loves him and backs him in every time.

Ceglar will come good. He just needs a solid month in the team and he'll find some good form again. O'Brien has had enough chances and failed.
