Sad about big Fraser!

[abers47]

How sad - Fraser Gehrig has been given one match from the tribunal!

It was definately worth a match, but it is sad not to see thier best side on the park.

 

[Darealrath]

They're not going to appeal ?

Another stupid thread.

I'd rather we try and beat St. Kilda with Fraser in the team than without

I'd rather not have to worry about him to be honest

I'll miss Maxy though.

Yeah, it is nicer not to have to worry, but it is better for the team in the longer run to beat the better teams at full strength

 

[warney7]

Ridiculous to get done for that little tap, but he has the record, so he only has himself to blame!

We'll prob only lose by 8 goals instead of 10 now!

Fraser being out is the bast thing imaginable for us. It gives us the Mal - Kosi match up. Way better than Mal - G-train and Paddy - Kosi.

 

[bomberstomake8]

would have rathered him play to be honest, not because then we would beat a better team but because i think it would be easier for us to win to be honest. fraser isnt in great form and i think he would have been a perfect match up for mal, mal could keep up with him for a full match and has the size to match him. now they will be smart and bring in a younger and quicker full forward to exploit him.

 

[monty1104]

Mal would not keep up with him Fraser is one of the quickest Full forward going around. Don't forget he started his carrer on the wing. He has a big engine. He is just lazy.

 

[Atomboy]

Who is Mal going to match up on now ?, he's moving like a bloke dragging a tractor tyre.

I seriously think that if he matches up on Kosi, that would be a big win for us. Kosi will most likely run his ass around the forward line until Mal blows up !.

The G-Train would have been a much better match-up for you guys.

Think Mal might be spending a bit of time on the pine, if he plays at all.

 

[hulld]

kozi will play at full forward which will allow mal to sleep alot better this week

if we can't beat the saints with most of their spine out we never will. it is a good opportunity to go 3-1

i agree
thoughts of him matching up with kosi are ridiculous.

not having him in is helpful as he's a good player but at the same time its allways better to beat a full strength side no matter what you say

I agree, I think Fraser playing would've helped... Not having a go but its pretty evident that Mal is crap at defending on leading players... (fev)...Fraser doesn't do much bit wrestle, and that would suit Mal Michael no doubt. Now Brooks will play Full Forward who doesn nothing but lead. Still Michael > Brooks one would think.

Did i hear correctly that Ball and Gram are out too?

Ball's out, not sure about gram.

 

[sainter]

Ball is out and Gram is in doubt.

 

[hulld]

that would be a big loss for the saints if gram didn't play. he has been one of their best players this season and his rebound out of defence could have hurt us ala heath scotland

But we would have learnt from our previous tactical blunder, and nullified him.

 

[monty1104]

You would hope anyway...

there;s only so much you can do. some of these attacking half backs don't allow themselves to be taken to the goal square. they show no respect to the forward they are meant to be on
