Strategy Shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic Vs Essendon, round 11 2023

[Astro7]

Gaff to be retired to a glue factory, he is sooooo done

Gaff is so done you could pin a tail on him as he trots by...

 

[ConcreteWaters]

At this stage, can we just invoke rule 11.2: We wouldn't have any injuries and we'd gain 1%

Gaff is so done if he was a horse in a race the ambulance would beat him home .

A 3 legged rocking horse would outrun him

In: Barrass, Hewett, L Edwards
Out: H Edwards, Jones, Gaff

If our average losing margin over the next 3 weeks is less than 80 points we have done well

 

[EagleEgo]

R11 vs Essendon and R12 vs Collingwood at home are chances.
The only 2 matches we won in 2022 were vs Essendon and Collingwood!

 

[Cuzz09]

I think out of the 3 games before the bye the ugliest could be v Adelaide.

When they're up n going they can pile on a big score.

Rachelle and Rankine and Tex and co could kick a cricket score.

We have the guy for 2 more years so lets try something different

Callum Jamieson at FB.

His ability to get to the contest and basically spoil it yesterday was quite good. Albeit it was when we kicked to him and he was meant to be marking the ball but nonetheless his long arms and quick closing speed for his size is something id like to see in defense. We can also get Barass away from FB too and free him up a bit

Unless Jamieson proceeds to pull down his trousers and run around the ground butt naked he isnt going to be any more embarassing then Harry Edwards so lets give it a go

IN : Barass, L.Edwards. Hewett
OUT : H.Edwards, Jones, Clark
SUB : Gaff

Surely the Bombres raise the ghosts of round 15, 1989?

This will be a shellacking of the highest order. I'm expecting the clubs worst loss of all time tbh...until we break the record again later this season.

It's a good thing Essendon fans are such gracious winners

So assuming that Duggan has a weird neck injury and it's syndesmosis for Jones even a 80% fit Bunga and Yeo are better than anything else that's available. Hewett and Burgiel need a run in the 2's before we drop them into the mess that is the senior squad. The nightmare scenario is of course no Allen, Duggan and Jones and Burgiel, Hewett and JWilliams would really make our 116 point thrashing squad look good.

Dewar and Baker get in before we throw injured players in.

Presumably Barrass and Ledwards will be over the flu by Saturday, that’s two players to come straight back in.

lol Essendon has opened up at $1.04 and we're $11. The line is 52.5 points.

 

[Tyberious Funk]

I reckon whoever gets selected, should be forced to wear a plain white jumper.

No wings until you demonstrate you've earned the right.

Even worse... maybe it's time to break out the ochre?

 

[BartBart]

Ah yes the magic bye where all our luck and players will come back and we'll be more competitive n stuff

We won't lose in Round 14 - there's a positive.

I notice Hawthorn had players, trainers, equipment people and just about everyone singing the team song in the changerooms after the game.

You would have thought it was a GF.

Surely minimum 60pt loss coming.

Imagine where the line would be if we were playing away!

Callum Jamieson at FB. Good call. He's tall, he can punch, got pretty good wheels and he's a scrapper... if the deck chairs are being moved who knows, he might just click.

Smitch well aware that when you are down in the doldrums a bit of hope and something to look forward to never hurts.

I can't imagine their coaching group is getting carried away but letting their boys, who have been getting beat plenty, blow off some steam can't hurt and might leave a few wanting to taste that feeling again sooner rather than later.

You think it wouldn't be a massive relief/release for our mob if they managed to put somebody, anybody, to the sword?

He did that last year against Larkey and Larkey kicked 6. I don't think he's a defender.

That was his debut. Couldn’t hurt to give him one more go

I would prefer he learns how to play forward rather than contributing to our defence conceding 100 points plus. Thought he went ok on the weekend in a dysfunctional forward line struggling for supply. Should be persisted with until Darling comes back or Mr Jack Williams surprises.

Larkey kicked 6 again this year on Barrass and McGovern

 

[Cuzz09]

everyone kicks goals v us
