Tim??

Tim McCarthy already our best player

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Come on mate. Don't melt until he actually is the sub and gets 8 minutes game time.

Mini promised 98 percent remember so he's sure to get at least 10 minutes.

How’d this go?

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Been out of it for the last week or so.
Last minute decision to watch this game on TV.
Have no expectations at all.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

I still can't believe they were planning on using McCarthy as the sub before Hough was named out. Literally the one player who possesses almost everything we lack

Is there a chance this is shiny new toy syndrome and we’re setting a 24 year old MSD player who has been here for two weeks up to fail a little?

We should win comfortably

i mean given he's only been on an AFL list for 2 weeks I don't think it's that crazy for a coaching group to want to ease him in

I can’t believe I fall for everything I read online…

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Glad that it isn't McCarthy nor Allan.

But don't understand why the sub vest isn't given to underperforming senior players.

Melting that he was going to be sub.
Not sub.
Now melting that he was going to be sub.......

 

[Wosh]

Thank goodness the last game I’ll have to watch till August. Make it a good one Eage’s, if you beat Carlton all will be forgiven.

It should go to whoever is rated the 23rd player

 

[Carbine Chaos]

It should go to whoever is rated the 23rd player

I don't think it's that simple when you're a developing side.

Hopefully Hall is given a good run in the starting side after contributing tonight.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

We’re 18th and have won six games in our last 300.

I genuinely cannot believe the amount of chat our sub usage has gotten.

It’s been poor. Mini sad it’s been poor, especially for Bo. Promised Bo wouldn’t be sub. He isn’t.

Move on folks, can’t we get mad about something fresh and original like the Tim Kelly

trade or Woosha going in too tall?

 

[Astro7]

Makes sense Hall is sub...been awhile for him, Allan was first in and was going to play a full game or Wafl. McCarthy is deemed another level/AFL ready.
Hall was next in line with consistent Wafl stats, albeit underwhelming..but rewarded.

 

[Bender_]

Ahhh yes, another week and another West Coast pregame coverage cut short so I can watch the previous winning team high-five their fans and sing their song.

2025 and we still can't work out a way to provide more than one stream.

 

[Knifey Spoony]

Scrap the sub rule as a whole and just have a 5 person bench.

 

[Cuzz09]

Scrap the sub rule as a whole and just have a 5 person bench.

That's just too much common sense

 

[Bender_]

I don’t mind youse tbh. It gets a bad rap, but the lack of a plural second person pronoun is glaring

The only time "youse" is acceptable is if it precedes "campaigners" and you wear high-vis to work.

 

[isthiswhereitype]

Definitely 45

Ironic as he seems like he's been skipping his 45s.

 

[Schmedit]

Ryan in the long sleeves, love to see it

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Definitely 45

Be good if they could get his position right.

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Absolutely no idea what to expect today.

 

[Smotie2]

How’d this go?

Haha comment before the sub announcment .
I'm glad he's getting a full game...or at least 3 quarters.

Let's see how he goes
