Prediction Round 7, 2025: Changes vs Hawthorn

[Miguel Sanchez]

Looks like Harry Edwards dropped again. Brock in the extended squad along with Cole, Long, Williams and Brockman.

Source: WAFL side has been named.

 

[RookiePick]

Harry Deadwoods

 

[Smotie2]

I agree, he was fine in the Essendon game

Weird take. He did nothing different before he got dropped.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

My toxic trait (among others) is that I think we are a chance against a down on form Hawks if we bring the same as in the Bombers game.

Were Essendon really bad or was our pressure actually good? They were coming in off a pair of wins and we were right in the game. Like could we?

Yeah nah mate

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Weird take. He did nothing different before he got dropped.

Season high pressure acts and most tackles since round 1, both of which are significant given he was likely dropped to work on defense.

 

[isthiswhereitype]

Bringing back Brockman to remind them that poaching goes both ways is a good response

 

[new breed]

Harry Edwards dropped , roundabout parade with Brock in, Tomlinson might be called upon in MSD .
Brock might do well / better with McGovern playing , Bazzo might Trump them soon .

 

[Astro7]

Centre bounce attendances last week

Main inside mids: Kelly (22), Hutchinson (19), Hewett (15), Reid (10)
Chop-outs: Graham (8), Gross (1)
Not used: Baker, Duggan, Ryan, Hough

Still used a different main four every round

GC: Kelly/Graham/Reid/Duggan
BRI: Kelly/Hall/Reid/Baker
FRE: Kelly/Graham/Reid/Baker
GWS: Kelly/Hall/Gross/Baker
CAR: Hutchinson/Hall/Gross/Baker
ESS: Kelly/Hutch/Reid/Hewett

Coach said he's still trying to find the right mix. So yes, need Graham through there this week, with preferably Baker over Duggan?

 

[Westend]

My hope is to keep it under 10 goals TBH.

Nah Tuggs reckon if we rock up we can win this game

 

[THE A5]

Hedwards deserved to be dripped but didn’t the Perth key forward kick a bag of 7 on brock?

Interesting to see J.Willo named on the bench and Archer on the field. We are either going super tall or Mini going to drop the wrong tall

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Archer Reid named on field, Jilliams on the bench. If they drop Jilliams for Allen I won’t be happy.

Cole also named on field so guessing he’s in for edwards and we’re planning to go small, but have Brock in the squad if we change our minds.

Brock, Long and Brockman on the extended bench with Hewett (!), Davis, Jilliams, Gross and Dewar.

No Billiams so he’s not named at any level, interesting.

and the land of the giants

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Id like to go with 1 less tall in defense and just go with

IN : Allen, Cole
OUT: HEdwards, Kelly

Give Hough some CBA. If things go bad, move Allen to defense. Dewar to be the sub

 

[Astro7]

Teams out. Hope Hewett and Gross get a good run at it...

 

[THE A5]

No mid into the side. Kinda feel like Harley will go back into the middle this week

 

[KERRPOW]

Wont be happy if JWILL is dropped for allen. But a 4 tall forward line wont work.

 

[TY24]

No mid into the side. Kinda feel like Harley will go back into the middle this week

Gross into the 22 with Long/Brockman/Cole to sub I reckon

But also agree that Harley will slowly build his CBA's as the year goes on.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Mate, I can't WAIT to see big Oz have another six ineffectual touches this week

 

[BartBart]

Out: Kelly (toe), AReid (rested)
In: Allen, Long

Backs: Edwards, Gov, Ginbey, Hough, Maric, Duggan, Baker
Mids: Reid, Hutchinson, Hewett, Gross, Hunt, Davis
Rucks: Flynn, Williams
Forwards: Waterman, Allen, Ryan, Cripps, Owies, Long, Graham
Sub: Dewar
Emergencies: Grego, AReid (traveling), Cole

Gross into the middle for Kelly, Davis to a wing for Dewar, Long back into the forward line, Dewar to sub. Graham to take some centre bounces because otherwise that’s a young looking unit.

Grego to get a chance to travel with the team and see his family, Archer to also get a trip home but get a rest from playing.

I reckon Kelly only playing home games atm.

 

[WCErevival]

I reckon they will go with the 4 forwards and not include Brock. They can then swing someone back if they need to.

 

[Farmer Lister]

Just rewatched the bombers match. Hamish Davis did some nice things I hope he stays in the team

 

[Cuzz09]

Gingivitis back for Hawks ey....

we lose a weirdo hand shake celebrator, they gain one.

Grego didn't do a lot in the wafl but no one did really so whi knows what will happen

We are going to need a tall to take Chol or Gunston …. Brock on Gunston? Maybe better matchup with Chol….

Interesting the four umpires doing tonight’s game are the same doing our game Sunday….. including Elani..

 

[twce13]

I reckon they will go with the 4 forwards and not include Brock. They can then swing someone back if they need to.

Think so too. I don't mind going in with the one tall def as I think ginbey can fill in the holes. But even with that I think given hawks run and carry it would be a huge mistake to stick with the 4 talls in the fwd line.

At least put one as sub.

 

[Cuzz09]

Long was ok in WAFL... Cole was probably deserving of a recall... Brockman was invisible and Brock was left to mop up the turds again
