Preview Sydney v Essendon

[Mick Oxlong]

Round 1, Jordan Dawson was dropped for a 14 disposal game.

Round 2, Colin O'Riordan was dropped for a 15 disposal game.

Round 6, James Rowbottom was dropped for a 10 disposal game.

Round 8, Kieren Jack and Robbie Fox are retained after 7 disposals each.

MC just have no consistency at all.

That’s actually a fair and damning observation but Fox deserves another go. Jack is done!

Edit: I should say Fox ‘warrants’ another opportunity.

Your namesake might be a good place to start.

sorry does not compute

Train -walk - beer -walk-beer

Its 15-20 mins from Central - Devonshire st exit

You forgot a couple of piss stops...we don’t all have strong bladders!

Maybe he does, but the precedent Horse set suggests he definitely should've been dropped this week. To appropriate a post I made yesterday,

My head ---> Brick wall

I wonder if perhaps they are kept in to have a few more mature bodies in there.
I don't know because I'm not the coach but you guys seem to know more than the coach that named them.

I'd apply for the soon to be vacated position if I were you.

 

[Jeffers]

Just get Kizza to play a complete shutdown role on Saad. That's all i think he'll be good for.

 

[TheMase]

A few of the interesting Footy Live KPIs this week.

The Swans lost the inside 50 count last week by 37. The most ever recorded...

George Hewett has won 53 contested possessions away from a stoppage this season. No1 in the AFL.

Sam Reid has applied 12 tackles inside 50 this year, equal 4th in the AFL.

Again though, if the mature bodies in the team aren't doing anything they actually become a liability.

But hey, selecting Kizza means Horse is onboard with the tank. Throw in the towel for Rowell!

I'd like him to play a tagging role on a number of players....

Because he does nothing else!

You know things are going badly when the opposition starts resting players.

We're only managing Daniher because of his injury. Won't be good for him coming off a 5 day break.

Who is the bolded referring to? You are speaking in riddles tonight sorcerer.

No idea. This app just lists some random stats every week, some of them are obvious others are interesting.

A week or two ago we were number one in the afl for generating a mark from an inside 50, supply an obvious issue.

 

[Jon Walters]

We Have seen some Fairytales this week

Liverpool Scoring 4 against the might of Barcelona
Tottenham coming from 2 down to beat Ajax with the last kick of the game

and Now the biggest of them All - Swans to win by 26

Kennedy with 40 Disposals
Heeney for 3 Goals

 

[Jeffers]

So which single quarter will we turn up for this week?

I would like to see Jack playing a hard tagging role on Joe Danniher this week.

KJ vs Hiscox in the NEAFL game for me.

 

[connolly]

If Jack and Reid are the Titanic, and Horse is the captain, then I hope it plays out exactly as his character's story did in the movie.

Lets just hope the drug cheats aren't the iceberg

Not a good situation to be in where beating Essendon is seen as a fairytale.

The iceberg is a different story. In that story, the whole team is the Titanic and Horse is the iceberg.
