Preview 2015 Grand Final: Hawthorn v West Coast Eagles - Gunston IN, Hartung OUT

[Bikefreak]

Yeah, but the whole "Bomb the ball forward" doesn't work for us because our key forwards can't grab contested marks. Just means the ball will hit the ground and be run out of their D50. Glad for Shoey he's in the side, bit hard on Billy. I hope Gunners is %100 because if he's not, we'll be in trouble. You'd think we'd know you can't take injured players into a GF.

As for the Sub, i think we need Duryea on LeCras or someone similar. Suckling as Sub works for me.

Would be a tough gig trying to snag a grab in a pack of ten.

We need to play smarter than that.

We were too predictable in the semi.

Need to be patient...work it around and mess with their match-ups.

 

[Samthegun]

Sorry for Billy. He's been an exceptional pickup. You know that he busts his guts. Remember Dayle Garlett...? LOL

 

[bungholes_premiers]

Simo talking about predictability, clarko throws a spanner in the works ... love it

Legit Question as I cant recall off the top of my head. Have all of these talls played together this year? If so, did it work?

He has been sensational. But its hard to say hes earnt it.

 

[Samthegun]

Sheesh...I just read up on Garlett...not sure what to think!

We did alright.

What did you read?

 

[GoldenHodge]

So Gunston is in and Schoenmakers still stays in?

We were helped by the umpires

I bet Schoe jumped twice as high as those guys.

 

[JC Hawks]

I feel for Billy. But I feel as though it's the right choice. Will be beautiful weather which will ensure that the forwards are able to hold their marks and Gunston is a running machine.

 

[Pessimistic]

Very tall side. Thought that's what hurt us last time against the Eagles.
Wouldn't make Duryea sub based on last weeks form, guess that leaves Suckling.

Not if the sub is a tall who can run a bit. Im tipping the shoe unless theres a lat change back to hartung

[crazywildhorse]

Gunston, Roughead and Schoenmakers are all agile enough to counteract the tallness of the side. In fact, is Roughead even considered a tall these days?

 

[Yellow Feathers]

You lot must be happy with Gunston back in?

I have a feeling he might have played last week against Freo, but they wanted him 100% for the big one.

 

[Chubberson]

Hale will be subbed out early in the third perhaps unless we are kicking their arses.

 

[bugalugs213]

Only one player suitable for sub now.
Suckling.
Duryeas not a sub.
Shoenmakers isnt a sub.
Poppy isnt a sub.

 

[2Sewell4School]

I have absolute faith in Clarko.

Shoe deserves his chance. It will be the making of him as it was for Hawkins in 2011.

Billy’s not winning us a flag but a couple of missed tackles could lose us one. We have enough pace and Suckers as the sub will be handy if we need to maintain a lead by keeping possession using footskills.

Pressure is on Jack to be effective. He has form in being average first start back from a spell. The bullshit about not taking injured players into a GF is just that. Ted Richards' body was 10% painkiller in 2012.

 

[KINGBUDDY]

wow weee, hartung out is a big call...

comon shoe make us proud

 

[hawksalltheway]

Only one player suitable for sub now.
Suckling.
Duryeas not a sub.
Shoenmakers isnt a sub.
Poppy isnt a sub.

tend to agree...but suckers was awesome in last years gf....tough decisions

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Suckling to be sub, I will be annoyed if Doc is sub...

 

[Clarkos_Soldier]

Those thinking we are going in too tall....I think Roughie will play a lot in the midfield. He is incredible at getting the ball out of the middle and kicking goals on the run from outside fifty. It will keep WC on edge. I want to see Roughie to Shoey and through the big sticks! I am not greedy....I'd like to see that 7 or 8 times at least.

 

[WWSD]

Come on Schoenmakers. Your time is now.

 

[Xtreme]

I would have kept Hartung but dropped Hill
Maybe not have selected Gunston either.
