Preview Rd 22: Changes/prematch discussion vs Adelaide

[kool kangas]

Look at the other teams around us mate and their remaining games. Come back to reality. We aren't playing finals.

l have and its still possible. Do the afl ladder predictor and have Port losing both and us winning both and even fill out the rest of the games as well and you will see it can still be done..

 

[Horizons_00]

Over 60 point loss coming up

Crows almost have a full list and at home. Haven't won since 2003 in Adelaide lol

 

[The Nostradamus]

Play the youth
Larkey kicked another bag, Waite suspended hopefully only for 1 game so he gets a farewell game

Hibberd in for Wright
McKay in for Thompson, he can have a farewell against saints also
Jacobs/Hartung in for Ahern (rest)
LDU in for Turner

But maybe no Walker...

 

[Marstermind]

Anyone who honestly believes Brad Scott will "play the kids" hasn't been paying attention for the past 8 years. I predict...

Out : Walker
In : Hrovat

 

[Horizons_00]

But maybe no Walker...

Hes a absolute spud anyways

Taz and Thommo are clearly carrying injuries so they will get smoked

Just did the predictor. Can be done. Well said. Can even get there off one win if Port lose to pies and bombers and swans lose to demons and Hawks.

Surely now that finals are gone you would let Jacobs get himself right for 2019? ******* surely

Couldn't agree more. Let him rest, if today showed anything we NEED HIM BAD

If he's right to play and everything is fine, why? He is best 22.

Season is gone, why risk him. Let him rest

 

[Waussie]

LDU guaranteed to come in !!!

Apart from his last quarter he was missing in the vfl today, it may have been a problem with his ankle, but he did ok in the last quarter. Murphy, Larkey's and Hayden did well. Hartung didn't do much, but he's been out a while, Hibberd was a nightmare, and Narrier was missing in action. No Pruessy today. Good win though

 

[Waussie]

Out: Waite (suspended), Thompson and Wright
In: Larkey, McKay and Hartung

If Jacobs ready bring him back
LDU get him back in also, don't care who goes out for him

McKay went off injured.

Nah this will be the one they do win, funnily enough - now that the pressure is off

I agree with GR on this one. If he's fit and healthy there is no risk. So play him.

I'd be excited about the CAN we make the finals if I believed we deserved to play finals. On the evidence of most of the past two months we resoundingly don't.

Book in surgeries, draw a line through those in poor form (some maybe permanently) and give a go to those who have earned a look at it

Walker a spud...have you got shut for brains

Yep I forgot to, Dec had a good game

 

[Horizons_00]

Yes he is a spud, should i repeat myself?

 

[billnats]

Out: Waite (suspended), Thompson and Wright
In: Larkey, McKay and Hartung

I thought Wright was our best defender today. Tarrant’s kicking killed us on transition. And Williams was uncharacteristically beaten several times

 

[trooroo4life]

We put the best 22 possible out next week. If Jacobs is fit enough he’s straight in. While it’s possible we have to go for it, I find it highly unlikely we win over there myself but we have to go for it.

If we get rolled then send blokes for surgeries, send off games and get a look at the fringes.

 

[Waussie]

Yep, confirmed. You have shit for brains.

LMac out is a no-brainer. Hasn't played well for ages and out of contract. Gives him the kick up the arse he needs and manages his contract value (he won't have too many suitors).

I think it's a toss up between Clarke and Walker out as well.

I'd be bringing in LDU and Jacobs (if fit).

Waite will get a fine I reckon. 1 week at best. If suspended, reward Larkey.

Just did the predictor. Can be done. Well said. Can even get there off one win if Port lose to pies and bombers and swans lose to demons and Hawks.

swans can even win and we can still make it ...

 

[Roosurgence]

In: Mountford, LDU, Hartung, Narrier

Out: McDonald, Ahern (cooked) (rest) Clarke, Turner

Feel like Narrier with his skill set would thrive at AFL level. A Liam Ryan type imo. Would be more dangerous than kanye imo

Turner wasn’t that bad.

But McDonald wouldn’t look out of place at a French Frie factory and Clarke is a liability when he gets the ball.

Ahern looks like a bloke coming off two knee recos and just needs a preaseason or two, it was always going to catch up with him sooner or later.

Atley on thin ice, just doesn’t impact a game enough.

Hartung comes in for Clarke. LDU for Ahern and McKay for McDonald. Will require a structural reshuffle, but changes need to be made and the season is shot.
