Preview Round 17, 2022: St.Kilda v Fremantle - Marvel Stadium, Saturday 9th July, 7:25PM AEST

[Grav]

We've named 6 defenders and an interchange consisting of NWM, Windhager, Butler and Wood.
I haven't been paying much attention this year. I'm guessing Hill gets pushed back when NWM or Wood comes on?
Have Jones or Billings spent some time back?
How do they normally rotate the back six?

Speaking from experience, defenders are tough, we don’t need to be rotated.

 

[PoppedCorn]

I have mixed feelings
Stoked to make the team starting on the ground...but gets a norf player comparison

Mate we fully expect you to beat Zuurhaar, our South Australians never let us down

 

[gringo2011]

The only one of those results that is remotely possible is our one. North couldn't beat a pissed-up contingent of posters from this board atm, although I'd pay good money to watch that.

Richmond are sending a light on squad in against the Suns.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Damn straight

Hopefully Wilks has a blinder

Gotta say I'm looking fwd to seeing if he gets another laughable decision and has one of those gold reactions again

 

[Saints43]

Dogs are better than they their ladder position looks and won't be an easy game. We seem to love to beat each other. I'm much more confident against Freo.

How could the dogs be better than their ladder position suggests at round 17?
They have heaps of players who put in soft efforts across games. For a lot of them their performance is dependant on their opponents willingness.
It's totally up to us if we beat them.

Mate you missed me, the most obvious one. AirWinmar on the wing. I actually model my game on the great man, we play a similar style except I'm shorter, slower, less fit even at his current age, worse skills and I'm way more outside I'd probably get the job done on Polec tho

We're keeping you fresh for the finals, Flash. Focus on your conditioning

Because they made the GF last year and have a heap of star players. I guess we are guaranteed a win if your system works. Should ask the AFL if we can just bank the points.

They should just ask to be moved up the ladder due to making the grand final and having heaps of star players.

And the umpires, bulldogs have the most frees for in the competition.

Should ask to take away Melbourne's premiership because they missed finals the year before. A good side can play s**t and a s**t side can win games. Bulldogs would have to be one of the most underachieving sides this year, only GWS even in contention. They have gone from a premiership to unlikely to play finals in a year. Often it's psychological. Hopefully it lasts years.

So why don't we just go on what the ladder for this season tells us? They're pretty soft at it.

 

[George]

150 up for Moorabbin middleweight champion Jack "Bam Bam" Billings

 

[LennyHayes77]

What's better for us tonight? A Swans win or a Doggies win??

They are really uneven, their best is really high scoring and fast. Their worst is tonight -defensive mess s**t.

We'll see next week I guess.

I need it, groins are hanging together by a thread lol

Swans if we win. Dogs if we lose.

Its true , just look at the TOG for good defenders.

 

[Ads734]

I agree that Howard should not do the kicking after a behind Neither should Sincs. WOULD RATHER SEE Sincs making leads further up the field. Perhaps the ball should be given to Wanganeen -Milera to get it out of the 50 metre arc.

Sinclair should take 100 % of our kick ins.

[The_Steadier]

Can we make a deal for tomorrow and not cr*p on Joyce if he makes a mistake? He's got a job to do, and he's more than earned a decent crack at it. Some people are pretty quick to sink the boot in. Let's back him.

We have this exact system on the roads.

New drivers are forced to display L plates so everyone cuts them some slack.

Sure, joyce is mature age- but a late starter to footy and has a grand total of 12 senior games to his name.

So yeah, he's still on his L plates (or at best a new P plater) and we should judge him accordingly.

 

[plugger66]

Sinclair should take 100 % of our kick ins.

He certainly should not. That would mean he is in the back 59 every single time the opposition have a shot at goal. We certainly don’t want that.

 

[NarklesHelmet]

Have no clue which Saints will turn up still which isn’t great but hopefully we turned a corner last week.

Last year after beating Tigers and Lions away I thought we’d turned a corner only to be brought back to earth against Port in a rare home game against them.

This game could be a similar let-down tomorrow but if we are any good, we just have to find a way to get the 4 points.

 

[PlayerNumber9]

Taberner Mundy and Fyfe come into the dockers team we played earlier in the season. We gain Ryder and lose Hayes (fairly big loss tbh). Really line ball game in my opinion if both teams show up

The game earlier in the season was in Perth, but this weeks game is in Melbourne. That alone makes Freo 5 goals worse off than earlier in the year.
