A few overhead marks from dawes would be nice, ive seen him do them at training

But yeah actually playing to his size would be a plus

Leroy should be out, but lets not pretend dawes is killing it, he is doing what he should no more

 

[collingwood1992]

Johnson already back is amazing!

I feel sorry for Dawes

In: Osborne, Whitecross, Young
Out: Franklin (suspended) Gibson (hamstring), Suckling (omitted)

for the hawks

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Anthony should be in for Leigh Brown. Once again Malthouse fails to make the big calls on his failing favorites.

Why? If he cant outmuscle VFL defenders what suggest he will in the AFL?

He isnt Lance Franklin or Roughead, above head work, the stuff that helps when playing on undersized defenders isnt his trength

Dave, Mick just omitted Shane O'Bree, so I don't think you can accuse him of playing favorites this week. There is a spot for Dawes when he puts his hand up and demands it. Besides, in your OP you said the side was OK.

 

[daics_35]

I am so pissed of atm. Who is gonna kick our ****ing goals!!! To not see Dawes and Jack even named as emergencies is a discrase, he kicked bloody 50 goals for us last year and hasnt mick learnt his bloody lession from last week that we only kicked 4 goals for the game. We got no chance.

 

[YouIdiot]

That is two pretty big ins for us, and at least one very good out.

I'm surprised that neither of Anthony or Dawes got a gig.

Not to worry, with Travis Cloke running around in the back half, Josh Fraser looking for somewhere to hide, and Brown and Jolly looking for someone to gift a free kick to, our 5 foot something forwards will take plenty of marks in the F50, just like last week.

 

[Optimax]

Anthony should be in for Leigh Brown. Once again Malthouse fails to make the big calls on his failing favorites.

Obree has been dropped twice in 4 weeks?

WTF?

Another Stupid Side by Mick

Dave its another side you dont approve of and in your opinion is stupid

I picked Shaw in McArthy out.

So the return of Ben is a plus and for me I reckon a good side

 

[Vendrell]

Dawes was very good last week. Presented well, especially in the last quarter when the game was on the line. Unlucky I think.

 

[lukey69]

good anthony dont deserve a game still untill he kicks atleast 5 in the vfl

Medhurst, Macaffer, Cloke, Didak, Davis, Fraser, Jolly, Thomas, how many more options?

Anthony missed half the pre season, was lazy and disinterested first 2 rounds, was just going in the VFL last week and was to me at least disappointing.

Dawes is bordering on Rusling levels of over rated

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Obree has been dropped twice in 4 weeks?

WTF?

So what? Dropping one player out of five doesn't mean he's not playing favorites. Honestly, Brown offers nothing that Anthony doesn't. At least Anthony will make the most of his opportunities in front of goal if he's playing a poor game. Brown can't even kick straight enough to scrape a behind. I'll take one or two guaranteed goals from Anthony when our team only kicks four goals in a match the previous week.

 

[Bom Schiggidy]

I wouldn't worry about the talls Pies fans. We've gone shorter if anything. Whitecross, Young and Osborne in. You've still got one more ruckman than us.

 

[Bloben]

I was hoping that we would have brought in another tall forward to really take advantage of their weak defense. Having a Jack or Dawes running out of the goal square could have really stretched them.

 

[HFF]

Stupid selections yet again.

BJ is a real worry. Seriously, he dislocated a knee-cap FFS! He is a massive risk of breaking down considering he has only missed the 1 week in what normally is a 4 week injury minimum. Very bad move IMO.

To not bring in our best FF in the Jack Attack is also a ****ing disgrace!! How the **** can we rely on Leroy Brown to kick goals? He hasn't kicked a ****ing goal all year yet and has had a combined total of 15 disposals too!! Cloke is the only decent forward we have and it's fair to say he isn't "reliable" in front of the sticks.

Seriously, what does Jack need to do to prove that he is virtually our best attacking weapon? As I've said many times, players like Tippett, Henderson, Gumbleton, Hawkins, White, Schulz, Riewoldt (Richmond) etc are all getting games for their respective clubs whilst a bloke who has kicked an amazing 75 goals from 30 odd games and was the leading goal kicker with 50 last season cannot break into a team screaming out for at least another key forward.

Mick "dropped" SOB and everyone assumes he has dumped a "pet", when the reality is, he has been named an emergency and is almost a certainty to play with a last minute withdrawal pending. Leroy Brown >>>> Jack is a outrage. If I were Jack, not only would I be filthy, I'd seriously be reconsidering my future at this football club given the talentless hacks that seem to be in favour instead of him.

 

[Wooljay]

Would have thought a forward option would be brought in, but I guess MM et al know more about picking the side than I do. Good to see Macaffer getting another go at it, consecutive games are how you develop, and he's definitely a pet favourite of mine this season.

We know how to win at the G, and we're playing against a decimated side, should be interesting at least. Go Pies

 

[dswan]

Fraser in FWD Line and Lockyer Back line two big mistakes. Mick your shit

 

[robertg22]

Our kicking skills are of concern so with that, we bring in Johnson.
Lovely stuff!

FFS over this nonsense.

 

[mattys123]

Dawes was very good last week. Presented well, especially in the last quarter when the game was on the line. Unlucky I think.

Actually he wasn't sighted in the first half, when the "real game" was on the line.

We got 43 points down, mainly because we were smashed in the middle and off half back, Jack and Dawes were plain ordinary in the first half, no one could argue with that.

Yes they lifted late, but that had to be expected at VFL level, even against a good VFL side.

Many will argue "how are we going to kick goals", well that forward line is missing one player from the Bulldogs game, where we managed plenty of goals, and that one player didn't help out much anyway. (Anthony).

Heath Shaw back is so huuugggeee it isn't funny, I rate him as our second most important player structurally behind Presti, because quite simply we can't replace either.

Heath will get us over the line, and BJ can take Rioli now too.
