Player Watch #29: Will Phillips - tags N.Daicos vs Collingwood - subbed off at 3/4 time??

[zoomba23]

Anyway, I think Powell looked great all summer up until he moved into the familiar abyss at half-forward after Jy went down. Hopefully, he stays as an on-baller, whether it be at AFL or VFL level. I'd much rather see Sheezel slotted into Jy's expected role, with Fisher, Scott, McKercher, Goater, Corr, Dawson, and Pink/Nyuon to play in defence.

This is it, right here. Should've been Sheezel from the outset. Whatever we lose in creativity from not having Sheezel back there is offset by the fact that we might as well be a man down with Powell stationed in the forward 50. Surely the coaches see that, you'd think

People bag phillips but if you look at the teamsheet from 96, you will see names like anderson, scott, rock, freeborn etc. When we have stacked the workhorses with the top 5 picks, then the whole team will be running at much higher skill levels. Back under scott, the likes of ziebell, cunnington were the top mids, then we have problem...

Just here to congratulate you getting the thread back on topic. For the past 20 posts, I thought I’d accidentally jumped to Powell thread.

The first confirmed case of Covid was the 25th of January 2020.
We traded our 2019 first round to Melbourne on the 14th of October 2019.
We cost ourselves Serong or Pickett but how were we to know I guess?
The tactic is just ******* s**t and I hated it then as much as we all hate it now. Just a stupid egotistical ‘look at me’ “I can wheel and deal” type bullshit by the club.
Regardless of whether it was unlucky or not it was a low reward high risk move that backfired.
Anyway it’s done, no point getting angry over it because we have gone through this a million times now.

Covered it a bit but first hand- Melbourne approached us, we responded like a pimply nerd who just scored a smile from the pretty cheerleader and duly carried their books home while they hooked up with the jock.

Probably not breaking any unsurprising news here, but am told by a friend of a friend that Will Phil is in the round 1 team.

Thanks but this thread is really for discussing Tom Powell.

Now, if you could also confirm that CCJ will play then I can start the post match analysis thread and reserve the first two posts for our two most maligned players.

I don't know one way or another if he'll be a starter, sub, or listed as an emergency that ends up playing.

My guess is he'll start.

I saw a bit of training today and Will Phil looks to be in magnificent shape. It appears he’s doing everything he can to succeed, good on him!

Yeah how’d Powell look?

That third option is just silly.

It's pictures like this I don't know which thread to post in. Or do I just scorch it from the net like it never existed??

Not really, Jy was training by himself but looked fine. I didn’t stay too long.

I didn’t identify him

No Phillips is a big surprise

Definitely.

 

[AnEmptyChair]

Not even an emergency. I just don't get it, he's been good when given a chance this preseason. Must be something in training?
