Round 7 Discussion

Ross Lyon is such a flog

If he was a flog he would have played Tucker this week, and then dropped him. Be grateful.

 

[Gerald Preston]

He's just a flog mate

Couldn't agree more. Good luck to the poor kid who gets drafted to Fremantle next year in the top 5. Won't play a game until rd 22.
Shatter his confidence, fantastic person.

 

[Listclogger]

is menadue normally named on the ball?

Might help him find it

 

[rocker_oz33]

Freo used to be alright side for rookies.
Under mark Harvey.

 

[Sydney Kicker]

Just checked the north board - a few there also thinking Daw being named means Goldy is a doubt.

Werribee plays at 7pm on Saturday. If Daw doesn't play that might be a clue. Unfortunately Essendon and Collingwood play on Saturday afternoon so it will be a bit late to do much anyway for most coaches.

 

[Hear Me Crow]

**** goldy better play. Why is Grimley out what a pig.

I was hoping Grimley's 20 odd points could cover Goldy if he is a late out

 

[OhhDeledio]

Why the **** was Lyons dropped, was avg 86 wtf Pikey

 

[Hear Me Crow]

If Goldy is a late out, I will just take it up the

 

[Amazing Bombers]

So far so good, hoping these rumours over Goldy, Libba, Pendles and Kerridge aren't true though.

BECAUSE B-ROOOOWWWWWWWWCCHHHH.

But seriously, the poor kid hasn't been given a decent chance recently. He has been solid too.

Reckon he'll be back in the side anytime soon? Want to hold but if he wont be playing for a while...

I honestly didn't think he would be dropped this week, so I have no idea what is going on over there.
The most likely way of him getting back in would be through B Crouch re-injury or just BAD form.
Hold this week.

 

[Hairy Lager]

Beams named one to keep a eye on.

 

[adammania9]

Disappointed Tucker was dropped. Not because I have him but because he's shit and now SC players will avoid him.

 

[SSSSSS]

Hope holding on to Laird will be the correct decision. It's a shame I'm chasing points but I don't want to burn my trades too quickly.

If he can come back in a few weeks and I can bring in Rance next week I'll have my defence pretty set for the whole year

 

[Keg on legs]

All this chat about goldy being under a cloud has me 2nd guessing my trades this week.

Will sleep on it, but I may bring cox in instead of smith. That way I have the ruck cover I lack right now. Otherwise if goldy is out I have a big fat doughnut to chew on. I'd prefer smith but cox probably better for structure

 

[Double the Fist]

Lucky I have to make two down grades this week, not missing Cox or Smith, Goldy reportedly was pretty 'banged' up during the Dogs game. Maybe they got stuck into him. I won't be surprised if he does miss, too important a resource to keep throwing him in if he is sore.

Hence, moved Cox to ruck E and Grimley to forwards, because I'm a soft ****. THERE I SAID IT!

Im now thinking similar. Bring in Cox over Howard, which will give me DPP with Grimley if needed.

I honestly think Cox will out point Howard. Howard won't go up as much as Cox... LOL...
Probably will Miss Howard as Petwrecker and Kaeys will probably be in the week after if Keays goes ok.

 

[peppy la pew]

Grey and Tucker both omitted. I don't think Ross understands how rebuilds work.

E Hughes named, Grey rested but should be named next week for the Tassie trip ( his home state ) Tucker finding the difference between WAFL and AFL is a big step, he'll be back.

AFL site says Grey is omitted, not rested. The whole point is to get games into players like Tucker. Not helping him to step up in the AFL by playing him in the WAFL. I'll use KMac from the Tiges as an example. Last year he had 1 good early game then pretty much spudded up and couldn't find the ball much after that, but they persisted with him on the wing and he played nearly every game last year. He's one of their best players now. They're doing the same thing with Menadue this year. He deserved to be dropped 2 or 3 times already, but they're persisting with him even though he looks out of his league ATM. He'll get better much quicker this way.

PS: Ross is a flog, stuck in his outdated ways. Will drag Freo down the same way MM did to Carlton.

 

[Jiska]

How the **** Menadud is still getting a game I'll never know.

 

[NinjaSwan]

Pretty confident Goldy will play. Every week there are rumours about him missing and they always turn about to be bullshit.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Ha Carnage can go eat a bag.

Laird my only out other than M.King as my year long loopie.
