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

[The Filth Wizard]

what's this f**king s**t

If we lose this will get sold as worse than it is. King is averaging two goals a game and Humphrey is low impact. Lukosius a fair out but I’m not sure it cancels out JZ and Lmac.

 

[Sphynx]

I mean, we are losing McDonald and Ziebell for Lachie Young

and Miller Bergman.

I doubt LDU plays either.

 

[HBFlanker]

Lol, we will win this by 8 goals.

 

[Only Forwards]

I doubt they play LDU either.

He was out with a foot last week.

Regardless of Ladder position I wouldn’t want him to play this rubbish round anyway.

There’s zero need to rush anything to do with feet.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Your move North Melbourne.

"Goldstein to VFL, Xerri to ruck, Taylor to inside mid, McKay to full-forward, Drury to CHB, Howe as the HB distributor, Phillips as marking target in the square"

<Click>

Your move Gold Coast.

I think its finally time to pull the trigger on the biggest gun in our arsenal.

Some said he wouldn't make it, but they were wrong.

His time has come.

 

[Harris 10]

what's this f**king s**t

If GC throw this then I’m selecting Walter at 2 and Ethan Read at 3.

Just fwiw King isn’t an out, he didn’t play last week. Humphrey got it 8 times.

This is being built to panic and set up a certain narrative but it’s still the same basic team that almost beat the Blues.

Will Jacobs' sinuses hold up well enough for a stint at full forward?

Shiels unlikely to get back too, 1 week setback.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Send them all in for surgery

Jy would need it

Anyone else playing through injury?

Just fwiw King isn’t an out, he didn’t play last week. Humphrey got it 8 times.

Yeah and guess what, in line with what has been a heartbreaking season for us this year, having moved into Pole position for Harley Reid, we, aided and abetted by the GC, will stuff this up and win this game.

I really didn't want us to win the wooden spoon again, but now we are in that position, we may as well secure it with a loss.

After all as I have been saying to Mrs. Horace each week as I leave to go watch us play and she says I don't know what to say (to reassure me), I say to her "its all okay, we are the team that solely exists for other teams to play and beat". I should have added, except against the GC in the last round at Blundstone.

 

[stefzulj]

what's this f**king s**t

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Start Turner on ball

Good idea, I think he will be signed for another year on the back of the last few weeks. If he does well then that gives us another midfield option next season.

It’s one of those things if we win… we don’t have the team to manage it, they run rings around us usually anyway not to mention they’re buoyant with the new coach on board. They also have a lot of players playing for career as this is this year of the big list cull.

We’re no chance and if we are it’s off the same type of game the Eagles went in with last week.

Honestly given our lack of availability I’d be surprised if half the team wasn’t managing something.

Congratulations to Jacob Edwards for making his long awaited debut this Saturday!

OUT: Ziebell (ret), McDonald (s**t), Howe (s**t), Turner (ret), Perez (s**t)
IN: LDU Shiels Bergman Archer Dawson

F*** we are scraping the bottom of the barrell now. I hope the VFL side doesnt have finals on because we have no one left to suit up.

OUT: Ziebell McDonald
IN: Bergman Archer

I actually don’t know. Archer didn’t play either level so concussion related layoff?

We are going to get belted regardless of Lukoscious being out

 

[andana]

The Kangaroos are unlikely to have Davies-Uniacke and McDonald available again this season, given this weekend will be the final game of 2023. Shiels could still return, having been sidelined for the last fortnight. - Riley Beveridge
