Preview Changes and Preview vs. Port

[dylan93]

I know we have the bye next week, but scrub the lot of them... This is putrid!!!

 

[dylan93]

Vince is defo out.

 

[LeverPuller]

Out: Vince, Pedersen
In: Petty, Weid

Smith to a flank.

 

[MarcMaverick]

IN: WHOEVER GIVES A DAMN
OUT: WHO DOESN'T

 

[Sellout Scully]

Frost would have been handy today especially when OMac went down.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

I for one am shocked that Pedersen turned out to be useless. At least he took two contested grabs though, right?

In: Tyson, Petty
Out: Pedersen, Vince

 

[rhaz]

I haven't bothered to check but I bet some genius scheduled Casey for a bye the same week as Melbourne.

 

[Topkent]

Petracca needs to go out. His work rate has been shit and his impact negligent. I don't think he is anywhere near fit enough for AFL footy at the moment. You've got DeGoey getting 20 before half time when Trac struggles to get that in a game.

It will never happen but against quicker sides we need to lose Vince and Lewis.

 

[Tulip]

Out: Vince, Smith, Spargo, Pedersen
In: Hunt, Frost, Garlett, Tyson
Lucky: Petracca, Neal-Bullen, Harmes, Salem

Frost is required for this game. Dixon, Westhoff, Watts all get themselves around the ground and we need someone to run with them.

why is everyone calling for Vince to be dropped?

Because he was shite...

 

[Toump Ass]

In: Jack Watts
Out: EVERYONE **** IT

 

[Demon 16]

It was a team loss today - not too many individuals to point at.

Vince might be ready to come out for Tyson.

Melksham, Petracca and Harmes need a good talking to based on today only.

 

[Theo X]

Out: Smith so far off the pace it's not funny, Pedo
In: Hunt, Tyson

 

[qarocks]

agree, team loos which started in the centre.

gawn couldn't get a clear tap to anyone (two weeks in a row) and collingwood pounced on the ball. we tried the same shit all day and it never worked.

just fix centre clearances and reload against port.

 

[CTHORANGE]

Out: Smith , Hannan

In: Frost , Garlett

Smith didn't seem to offer anything that our host of mid sized defenders can't already, we really needed a second tall to fly into the packs. Omac can't do that if he is wrestling his man. Frost has speed too, which we sorely lack coming out of defence

Hannan just goes missing too much when we aren't going well, so give Garlett another chance

 

[Johnny Karate]

Smith was fine. Hannan will be in danger. Don’t see how Tyson gets a game unless one of Oliver, Jones, Viney or Brayshaw comes out. DT won’t help our poor skills/two way running problem IMO.

We didn't have a two way running problem today, we had a one way running problem ie we didn't run either way

 

[ABray10]

We have been pantsed in the middle two weeks in a row. Tyson has to come in, not because he is that good, but because we can't accept getting smashed in the clearances two weeks in a row without making a change to the midfield.

Petracca needs to play VFL. Thought we could play him into form in the AFL but it just isn't working. Needs to take a leaf out of olivers book this off-season.

 

[booshboy]

Out: Smith, Hannan, Trac

In: Frost, Hunt, Garlett

 

[Dancing Potato]

If our speedier players in Frost, Hunt and Garlett haven't done enough at VFL level to earn a call up, what are we expecting to happen when they come into the seniors? They're just going to look even worse.

I guess it's just blind hope because we need leg speed that desperately?

Not really sure what changes are warranted to be honest. Most of the team was awful. Tyson in for...someone. Lewis or Vince I guess. Pedo put for...also someone. Eh.

 

[Pedantic]

Pederson has to go out.

Maybe I missed it at ground level today, but I'd have Lewis out before Vince -- at least Bernie shows some leadership by trying to chase, Lewis seems to think he's above it.

 

[VanDemonxx]

You guys can't be serious about dropping Smith surely.....

Hunt and Jeffy in
Out I don't care. Maybe Vince. Maybe Hannan although he took his chances. They wouldn't drop Petracca but he needs a rocket

I don’t think I’d drop Petracca. He was ok past couple of weeks and perhaps just needs to be played forward more. I was Saying today though that he should follow Clarry around next pre season and see how hard that bloke works.

 

[markm106]

Out: Vince, Pedersen
In: Petty, Weid

Smith to a flank.

I don’t mind those changes. Although it doesn’t address the need for pace. However releasing smith to a flank isn’t a bad move. I’d also be looking at giving Spargo a spell in the VFL and bring Garlett in.
