Prediction Round 11, 2025: Changes vs Kuwarna

[Bender_]

But did Archer eat his veggies?

Veggies are for poindexters.

ie: People with Instagram/X accounts.

Its not about taking Ryan out, its about letting Hewett and Reid have a bit more freedom not having to be first in trying to get the hard balls.
I want those two to have the opportunity to do what Ryan was doing.

Not just that, with Crippa out we will need more of Ryans goal kicking skill and pressure to cover for what we will be missing without Crippa. Yes there are a few others but Crippa and Ryan are in a class of their own.

I've already watched that one

Hoping Hall is not the sub. Dewar and Long seems to be more suited to the role.

 

[squashface]

Feel like it will be Dewar and Long in with Hall as travelling emergency.

Dewar to play a more high HF role with Hunt and Hutch playing wing still.

 

[bUCKET__]

Archer was meant to be selected, but he didn't have the accuracy getting onto the correct flight

 

[Cuzz09]

So Crippa and Owies are out and we somehow get shorter?


Riiiiiight...

Hope Hall and Dewar in with Dewar sub

 

[EagleEgo]

Long and Dewar in

 

[Keys]

Long and Dewar into the side

Hall the traveller

Perfectly fine with that

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Yeah good changes.

Hope Oscar plays forward.

 

[KERRPOW]

Sub: "T Gross"

This board:

 

[Keys]

Yeah good changes.

Hope Oscar plays forward.

I think he starts forward and becomes an option to shift him back if Edwards and/or Brock are being overwhelmed

Adelaide have the tree pronged talls with Thiltorphe, Fogarty and Walker

Either Oscar goes back to help, or it means Ginbey/Maric is playing as a tall

Edwards on Thilthorpe
Brock on Walker
Ginbey has the capacity to play on Fogarty

Interesting to see how we handle this. Ginbey could step up?

I think that if anything hall would be replacing some of Graham's CBAs. High impact short burst players like Ryan aren't great swaps for Hall. Ryan and Brockman can't maintain 50+% CBAs and Hewett is probably better in the 50-60% range with time up front. I think thats what Hall would offer. Take 2-3 CBAs off pretty much everyone except for Brockman and Ryan so the midfield is more dynamic and less predictable.

Slight chance we've decided to pull Hough out of the midfield and get him to do a job on someone. Which would probably make the Hall choice easier.

I know the final teams are out so we know more or less whats happening, but my thoughts were to let Hewett/Reid play with freedom like Ryan was doing, rather than being bogged down with having to be first to the ball all the time.

The guy Hough wouldve matched up on in the Crows fwd(Rankine) line plays midfield now btw, Hough should stay in the middle

Fogarty and Walker both have a knack of playing well against us, so it's going to be a big task for him

You assume Harry gets the man mountain in Thilthorpe

Remember 24 hours ago when people were legit melting about Archer being on the extended bench?

I couldn’t even remember if I ate my veggies 24hrs ago, how do you expect me to remember what I posted on BF?

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Good changes.

Oscar forward for the rest of the year with JWill and Shanahan on standby, Archer shifted down back longer term. Cheers Mini, try the veal.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

11 players with fewer than 50 games is insane.

Only Richmond go in this week with less experience (14 under 50 and a further four under 100: 62.1 games average)

 

[Bender_]

McQualter got his win and now it's back to the youf.

(Yes I'm aware the changes are forced)

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Pissed about Hall not playing. Would prefer him in the WAFL if not playing vs Crom.
