Preview Round 22 Changes vs. Melbourne

[ImperialPurple]

Bit rough on Crozier. I'd've given him one more week. Hope Langdon makes it in and Tendai is sent back to Peel. And MdB too.

 

[simpsonwillo]

Take a look at the Hawks Board and supporters if you want to see arrogant. I hope we never get like them no matter how successful we become. Ugly supporters.

I know, but they can, angst

 

[Big Animal]

Tabs or pav to come in for croz dependent on how pav feels. Other one? Duff in to push sheridan more into the middle, or clancee or langdon to the middle as straight swap for fyfedom?

 

[Freoforever86]

From that squad:

IN: Taberner, Pearce

Possible late change to get Langdon in as the sub

That Pav bloke stiff!

In - Pav, Langdon, clancee
Out - Fyfe croz MDB

 

[Big Animal]

Even though we got Farmer and Marghets, it's Nathan Brown's 200 so that should push it back out way

 

[Freo88]

I am embracing myself

Hahahahaha! This is fantastic

Maybe Barlow to Fyfe's role.

 

[Square Peg]

Mzungu and D Pearce picked again eh? I know **** all about football

 

[Big Animal]

Maybe Barlow to Fyfe's role.

I thought he was already playing midfield

D. Pearce has not missed a game since joining the club, and isn't likely to any time soon.

 

[StingBitten]

Actually happy with these changes. Thrilled to see Langdon at least named and possibly C. Pearce and Taberner given one last shot. Love Crozier but he's not ready yet for a massive finals campaign.

I must be the only one that has faith in Mzungu coming good.

We have no choice with D. Pearce, he's so vital to our finals campaign and could be the difference between winning a flag or not.

I've rewatched the first 8 games and is form was scintillating for a lot of it. His feed from the midfield to forward line is the reason we kicked so many first half goals that put teams away.

What I can't work out is what Mzungu is doing right now that he wasn't doing earlier in the year when he was in and out (mostly out). Obviously this and to a lesser extent next week is the last chance to have a look at who we'll use in the finals, but I can't see how Mzungu is holding his spot quite frankly. He's been average to quite poor when he's been called to perform at key moments. Not saying he should be dropped necessarily, it's just a bit baffling that's all.

I think Pav will play this week, probably rest next week, and then back in for first week of finals.

Well.. then maybe this is a rest week and Mzungu will be dropped as soon as certain injured players return.

 

[Kram]

Gee Mzungu really has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies with supporters this season

 

[FreoRicci]

INS: Pav, Tabs and C. Pearce (if dry) Tabs out if wet.
OUTS: Croizer, Fyfe and De Boer.
Like how Pav won't have to fly for a month. Hoping we do the same with Sandi, McPharlin and perhaps Mundy next week.

 

[Andy Brennan]

D. Pearce could die on-field and he'd still get picked the next week

If he could get the ball more and dispose of it intelligently he'd be back in the good books!

I like him and would love to see him get some form back but I think quite a lot of us were overrating him a bit when screaming for him to be in the team earlier in the year.

On his form last year he deserved to be given a chance... Too bad he hasn't withe few times its arrived

 

[Taylor]

Look for Langdon's big brother sending well wishes on twitter, if he even uses it.

 

[freddieflintoff]

Wouldn't have thought to many changes especially this late in season. Tabs will play if either Pav or one of back man not playing . Pearce A to play either end . Would be nice to have a debutant but Ross isn't usually keen (3 in 2 yrs), especially with 2 games to go to finals. Be nice to proven wrong but highly unlikely. Maybe Tabs plays as sub. Gives bit more flexibility ie, Pav rested late or back man rested & Pearce could go back. MDB hopefully gets start as he is isn't suited to sub role. Mz struggling big time. Another who may make way for others ???

 

[jedi mind tricks]

I hope Langdon gets a game. He's a smooth mover for Peel.

You're right but he continually goes missing on the big stage.

Looks like the rain will stay away on Sunday, if AccuWeather is to be believed.
