Game Day 2024 Round 18 Sydney v. North Melbourne 13th July @ SCG 1:45 PM

[Bloods86]

No it's usually a player who can play multiple roles, which all those players can do.

I'm not really concerned about what "usually" happens. Fox never looks as good when coming in as sub, neither does Campbell tbh.

 

[Dubai Quacker]

That and people are selectively looking at an out of form Wicks who isn't a mid, as if he's never played an important role for us before.

Multiple time club champion vs c-grader.

The gulf in class is immense.

 

[Mister B]

These ****ing umpires. It’s like the Salvation Army out there. Charity.

 

[The King!]

Oh well just needed to win,
got better as the game went

did what we needed to do

Jmac aside a good day

 

[McRobie]

Plenty of you with egg on your faces hanging crap on Parker. Showed he’s a champion. Some embarrassing commentary about an exceptional player during the week.

 

[bottomboy]

Apparently it's deluded and pathetic to want Parker playing..

Imagine Adams producing that in a quarter of footy. He's not capable of it. Parker is just a better player in every way.

 

[GoulburnSwan]

Can we get a 100 plus point win?

Not now but let’s hope the dogs beat Carlton by a point and then we are three games ahead again.

They aren't the same type of player. Parker is a club stalwart, deserves all the plaudits, but this is pretty poor, dismissive of Wicks imo.

He's had some very good stretches in each of the previous 3 seasons. His back half of the year after suspension was pretty good last year. First half of 2021 was elite, 2022 was a bit patchy but he had some very good games.

Elite? C'mon now

 

[The King!]

Mills has made a difference without getting a lot of it.

Presume originally he would have subbed off

Wicks elite?

 

[Bloods86]

Elite? C'mon now

Can't help it if people don't remember

 

[Bloods86]

Wicks elite?

Did I say that Wicks was generally elite, no.

 

[ShireSwan]

Can't really agree with any of those. For me it's Adams.

Roberts, Fox been good. Campbell a bit quieter but if Jmac is out, I'd keep him in.

Agreed.
Roberts better kicking keeps him in ahead of Taylor in that role. Fox's speed is invaluable in key moments IMO.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Depsite the first quarter, that's what I wanted Swans. Flog the campaigners. Too many games we've had with North Melbourne have been too close for my liking. Not today, thank ****! Go Swans.

 

[The King!]

Hope Mccartin is better against the Lions forwards

 

[The King!]

Did I say that Wicks was generally elite, no.

Fair enough , we won they can all be called elite

I might perhaps be unfairly harsh on Wicks - but I just don’t rate him particularly highly & was thrilled when the late change came through.

This BS about not being good enough shows some fair weather and uneducated opinions up.

 

[The King!]

Gulden and Warner smashed them

 

[Neverwas]

Nice game by Roberts

Good win but still felt like we left a lot out there

JMac getting hurt also sucks

Well, I watched the VFL today, would not be giving Wicks that rating today...

You seem pretty concerned since you're asking who'll be sub when heeneys back.

 

[the hypnotoad]

Luke Parker having a massive 3rd

is that rhyming slang?
