Prediction Round 12 Changes vs Brisbane

[Wizard]

Would think there is a decent chance we see JOM this week in this case.

If McVee has Simpson's kicking we would be set.

When I was in Melbourne a couple weeks back for the Essendon game, I went to the Hawks v Dees the previous night and got talking to a long time Dees fan who told me that Mcvee's field kicking was superb when playing for them. I think Mcvee will get a lot better for us. Chemistry can take time to build.

Disappointed about Young but we’ve waited n some big games without him - our boys believe in themselves

Seems silly to select him this week, but I wouldn't rule it out either. Wasn't a standout with 12 disposals on restricted TOG in his WAFL run.

It'll be just Moose for OMac.

 

[Randomizor]

We’ve played enough games with Young out of our side, both this year and last.

If we can’t win without him, we should pack it in, because he’s wildly injury prone.

It's Serong AND Young that is the problem, not just Young. That's a lot of midfield firepower out against what will be a fired up two time premiership team

if we can win this one without our two workhorse A grade mids, the lid will be well and truly off.

might be a bridge too far though.

 

[Purple Suit]

Seeing the dangers of being a strong side but a little too dependent on an older player with Zorko and Gunston

Lets hope the wheels fall off the Dynasty without him. They haven't fired a shot since he's been out and I assume this will be his last season now. They have got a very tough 4/5 games coming up too.

Melbourne Mcvee kicking to Freo Mcvee kicking is like Chris scott to Brad Scott in coaching.

He's got some Markelle Fultz, Ian Baker-fimch category yips ATM.

Definitely. You could even see his ball drop has started to look really dicey, like he is concerned if he will even make contact. It will come good. Keep the faith.

 

[Dirty_banchez]

We should just hurry up and cure CTE so we can bring back the biff.

The Giants were missing a huge chunk of their best 23 on the weekend too.

It took Bolton a year in our system to get his mojo..Hopefully McVee has the same improvement going forward..

 

[#1JohnHuttonFan]

We got this!!

 

[serial_thrilla]

We have a 100% winning record without Young and/or Serong this season. We'll be right.

 

[Count Moriarty]

Serong, Young. Pfft! Both crabs anyway.

Sure but I am very confident we get much closer to Brisbane's best this week then whatever the **** that was against GWS

You’re right we wont win by as much as GWS did.

 

[serial_thrilla]

This has easy five goal win written all over it. I have no idea what you're all worried about.

Turns out "winning 10 consecutive games" was my trigger to becoming a Freo optimist.

Weirdly still feel confident. While we don't have the leg speed advantage GWS had I do think our forward line can get on top of Voss can keep Andrews under control. Their midfield is dangerous but give us a chance to do some damage the other way. Their tall forwards are not hugely threatening so we need to control their smalls. Honestly think we win this by 3-4 goals.

Social media post has Serong at the airport on the up escalator.
