We made the finals… Changes VS Dockers

[ScragCity]

I like that you've baked in spraying a couple off the side of the boot in the wet with the low goal count

2 goals in the wet is huge for a wing

 

[grassman75]

Roarke goes to another level in the wet. It's bizarre. Chuck a bet on him to get 25 touches and 2 goals.

Mr September AND Rainman. Is there anything he can't do?

 

[TiAn_]

Could West be 2022 Liam Picken

Be much better if he was 2016 Liam Picken

I believe in you Scrag.....I only took 20 touches though. Even though he's a god, it is Roarke after all

The Bont and Macrae go alright in the wet.

Port at AO in 2019 - I was there and it was an absolute monsoon, but loved watching Bont and Macrae light it up.

Bont in particular looked like he was playing with a Velcro ball and gloves while hardly any Port players could function.

If it is wet I’d back those guys in.

Bonts was the best wet weather game I’ve ever seen.

No analysis needed.

Dogs win this.

The general opinion by mainstream and social media is this game is irrevelant to the finals it is the far as the winner will go. Well maybe not especially if the cats beat the pies. If we win this one then play the pies who we beat by 48 points last time we played and then a win there could see us play the dees in a prelim. final and we also beat them last time. A lot ifs but expect the unexpected from Bevo's Bradbury Bulldogs.

The pies had a number of outs when we played them earlier in the year.

Well, we were missing Roarke "Finals" Smith

 

[Golden_6]

Taberner apparently isn't going to be selected for the elimination final (it could be mind games). If so, I think we can afford to go a little smaller especially in the wet. I think we only need 2 of Gardner, Cordy & Keath as KPDs with Darcy as cover playing in the front half. They'll likely have Lobb, Logue & Fyfe as the KPF options.

In: West, Keath
Out: Bruce, Cordy

medalist contender but his absence will still be missed. Surely our man Lobb can't bang home 4 goals from 50m out on 60 degree angles again.

 

[Dog 36]

Need to be careful not to make too much of weather and the opposite too little of it

Start of the week the weather was 6-15 mm of rain with showers now still only Tuesday (4 days to go) but it is 4-8mm of rain with showers easing

rely on us been the better side, better prepared and not on weather

 

[SPower]

Weather forecast does appear to indicate less rain and lighter after 6pm our time

Don't think I've ever seen a player repetitively hit the ball so sweet as Lobb that day. Was quite incredible.

 

[Freshwater]

Roarke is this teams Tim Callan, who Rocket wouldn’t play all year, and then bob up in finals.

Peter Wright against us basically 12 months previous to that Lobb game?

Curnow earlier this year?

It happens to us more than I would like tbh.

Forgot how he pulled 4 goals out of his butt that night.

Old "nuts" Callan. Often wondered if he was a plant by Geelong as we could never beat them in those finals...

For Plough that guy was Mark West. Wouldn't be seen until around R19.

Not much you can do when a player is bombing goals from the flanks.

Wright barely had an opponent that game because Schache injured himself early on.

Mark West was an animal. Fantastic player.

 

[dergert]

Keath has to come in for mine.

 

[dogwatch]

Fyfe has done a hammy at training and will miss the EF.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

That’s sad for him, but his on and off season hasn’t been that influential.
