Preview Wet Coat Beagles vs. North Melbourne - 12/7 at 5:40pm AWST - Optus Stadium - Rd 17, 2021

He seems to like to go for an unchanged line up. I get it if you really want to win and you think the recipe doesn't need much tinkering. But surely at this point rewarding and playing younger guys is more important than getting another win with the strongest list available?

Some glued-on magnets it seems.

[giantroo]

I'll say Paddy Walker is the medi-sub.

 

[Gabe251]

Think y'all have a real chance against these pretenders! Hope you win.

 

[zoomba23]

Dear God, our defence.... Their small forwards are gonna have a field day. Get LMac back there ffs

 

[Groucho]

Think y'all have a real chance against these pretenders! Hope you win.

Bet *you do

 

[Horizons_00]

Hayden should have come in for maybe Phillips

Tag the s**t out of Gaff in the middle

 

[Waussie]

the medical sub is selected from outside the squad, i believe

Which doesn't collate with the coaches comment of the 23 man squad. It either is or isn't.

 

[DrZaius]

Think y'all have a real chance against these pretenders! Hope you win.

We'll do our best to get you another finals loss

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Think y'all have a real chance against these pretenders! Hope you win.

Give it up, you're not making the 8.

Atley farewell game

For this year if he some how gets injured but if not will be back against Essendon the following week .
Atley will be playing next week and the week after that and for the rest of the season and back in 2022 as NO other club will want him.

Definition of understatement

 

[Sillygit]

jesus christ that weather forecast, gunna feel like the swimming pool game

 

[Billy Not Really]

I just cannot wrap my head around why the * Atley wasn't dropped.

Atu or Hayden can easily do what he's doing back there.

 

[Devington]

I just cannot wrap my head around why the fu** Atley wasn't dropped.

Atu or Hayden can easily do what he's doing back there.

Atu has 3 games as a defender under his belt and no great form in the VFL to speak of, even though we've been competitive there recently. Kyron was a late out last week with hamstring tightness and seeing as he isn't even an emergency I'm assuming he's no longer right to go. We have some depth for smaller defenders but they're typically all at least two of young, very raw, or injury plagued.

Both Coach Emeritus Scamper and Coach Sissy Rose say the following:

Ugly. Possible storm.

Well if it’s Ark weather it’s going to come down to which team are the better ground ball team, no idea how we rank in that dept against WC but it has to improve our chances me hope

Did the defender that Zurhaar kicked 4 on get dropped this week?

 

[Val Keating]

I’m not against Atley having a spell in the 2’s but I wouldn’t drop him on his defensive game. The kid from the dogs just had a few ridiculous moments.
