Preview Round 16: Essendon vs Sydney, MCG, Saturday 02/07/2022 @ 1:45 PM

[Bjchan13]

Pan fried toasties are our favourite, cooked in plenty of butter. Also add the tomato covered in cracked black pepper after the toastie has been cooked.

 

[Duckworth]

Zerk + Parish
For
Hobbs + Bryan (+ Ham)

Am assuming it’s just rested for Hobbs

Menzie must have been close. Otherwise, we needed another KPD. Bryan is far from the finished product.

 

[Bjchan13]

If we're dropping Hobbs i think we should be giving him full minutes on ball in the VFL rather than sub.

 

[Harlequin Dream]

VFL will be good to watch.

Unless we are resting him?

[andleanback]

Hobbs stiff but he’ll be the sun, zero tackles last week. Stiff week at selection there was always going to be someone unlucky.
They had to bring bzt or Reid in, good call.

 

[frodos gardener]

Hobbs out but Heppell maintains his spot? Insanity.

 

[andleanback]

He’ll be the sub

By that logic, Parish would never get another game.

Why when are no good are Hobbs and Reid playing vfl. They our our future and we need to get as many games into them as possible.
wins and losses don’t matter for the rest of the yea, develop the kids ffs rutten

It’s almost like one is the captain of the club and the other is a 19 year old.

Truck said on the club video thing he was basically being managed

10 debuts since he took over as coach, but he still isn’t developing the kids?

Amazing logic.

So who are you dropping for parish then? Or is he playing 2s
Reid didn’t even play key back in the vfl last week, it’s okay for him to go back and learn his craft. Look how SDK was developed by geelong. Bzt is only 22 not like he’s 30. He has the best form in the vfl and deserves his chance.

In fairness, the way we have played this season, no one is unlucky to be dropped.

That’s true
I more meant that there wasn’t any easy name to cull, like a ham or cutler. It was going to be one of the younger guys who made way more parish, because most of our players are off the injury list.

 

[Bjchan13]

Truck said on the club video thing he was basically being managed

Yeah i just watched it, makes sense

 

[Saintsone]

Yeah i just watched it, makes sense

I say BS, he wouldn’t be playing vfl if he was managed. Have lost all faith in Truck, get Clarko, trucks wants to be their mate not their coach.

Who do you drop? Your kidding surely. We have one three games, there is about 15 that could be dropped, starting with Heppel.

 

[Bjchan13]

Good to see D'Ambrosio hold his spot

 

[andleanback]

Okay then come back to earth and be realistic, you think they’ll drop heppell. Who are you dropping ?
If there’s 15 names, name someone you’d drop from last weeks performance.

 

[Vander18]

Prefer us to play 2 rucks or a third tall forward. We will struggle for marking power at the MCG.

Stringer isn’t a 3rd tall.

Flip side is better chance of forward pressure. Will be interesting to see.
