Preview Changes and pre match discussion vs Gold Coast - thank f***ing Christ it's over

[TennisPlayerAndy]

We were sh*t last year, we're slightly less sh*t this year, either way Gold Coast are a better team than us.

They’ll get the ball outside and downhill ski away.

They’ll get the ball outside and downhill ski away.

The most basic key to beating us is to hold width from the stoppage.

In the last quarter of Saturday both sides were trying to get the ball into the hands of their retiring players.

We got it to Jack once.

They got it to Riewoldt/Cotchin 4-5 times.

This is a pretty decent mirco study of what we will see. We can do it and our way does work we just can't do it as quick or as often as other sides.

Which on the whole is improvement because last year we were lucky to even look coordinated moving the ball beyond centre.

Delist Howe tonight

Given we need to remove any chance of winning this game, surely Howe is starting mid

Captain

With Dimma officially announced as Coach this would give the Suns a lift I would have thought. Audition for the new coach.

Is Dimma still OS? Likelihood he is in Hobart for the game?

Dimma was at our game against Richmond on the weekend.

Dimma was at our game against Richmond on the weekend.

Yep, and he said in his presser that he’ll leave all coaching duties to the interim setup currently before getting involved with the exit interviews.

With that in mind they’ll know his eyes are on them now at least so there should be a focussed GCS in Hobart.

I wonder who the hell will actually captain us this week? Shirley Jy’s due a rest and cleanup of any ailments?

Think it had something to do with Jack and Cotchin…

There are 2 to choose from, Larkey or McKay.

 

[Sphynx]

Our entire team focus should be to feed Larkey for the entire game.

Try and get him a deserved AA jersey.

If he kicks 5+ and Walker has an off day, he may finish second in the Coleman in a side that won 2 games for the season, it would be hard to deny him a spot.

TBH, he’s not far behind Curnow outside of those two or three games he absolutely dined out on.

Walker has the eagles he’s kicking another 10

Walker has the eagles he’s kicking another 10

Not with McGovern back.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Not with McGovern back.

That will just bring it down to 5

 

[TheKanga]

Got a weird feeling we might trouble Gold Coast.

Yeah it's funny I feel like we might win lol

Isn't that just how we usually go forwards anyways?

Hate to talk odds
But since the Eagles won we have drifted from 2.50 out to 3.37
Just saw on the AFL app
Bookies probably have mail.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Is Clarko coaching against Dimma this weekend? That would be interesting. I suspect he'll be at the ground anyway.

Is the mail that we haven’t beaten the Suns for years and lost more senior players this week through retirement and injury?

No, King remains.

Probably a bit of both

 

[Gasometer]

Feel like bumping the Suddenly thread and listing every one here who has a funny feeling that we’re going to suddenly win this weekend for no good reason other than a funny feeling

 

[brooksnk]

This week will be the week Turner gets dropped. Somehow. Some way.

And whoever takes his spot will slot a goal after the siren to take us back to 17th.

 

[Luke72]

Honestly don't care really (Saturday)

Think we are a chance (Thursday)

Out: McDonald

Christ no, don’t drop him now. We need to lose this

 

[chubbspeterson]

GC won't lose this with Dimma looking on. They will want to impress the new coach in the stands.

Yep 20% are fighting for their careers

 

[Passmore]

He won't even be watching. He'll be sinking cans and hitting up 10's in the corporate box.
