Preview Changes for Preliminary Final v Geelong @ Melbourne Cricket Ground

[nameless]

Is MacKenzie going to play or is it just a media beat-up that he is in doubt?

He's as likely to play as Geelong are to win......take that as you will

ash smith, brad ebert and matt rosa have all travelled

Good for team unity even if they don't play.

Interesting, all three are a chance i imagine

Interesting, all three are a chance i imagine

I think rosa is the most interesting after such a long lay off, maybe they might look to play him as the sub

 

[groga]

Kennedy, Lecras, Kerr, Butler and Masten all through....intresting couple of hours till list is announced not surprised really.

So he has absolute 0% chance of playing then?

The eagles team hotel is just down the road from my office, I saw the eagles boys getting off the bus earlier, lets just say E Mac was still wearing that moon boot and was being assisted from the bus.

Let's just say getting him to travel over here is purely ducks and drakes stuff.

They haven't left perth yet.....

I don't imagine a moon boot is all that much like a sneaker (as it is used to reduce mobility to prevent any further injury/speed up any recovery) so that would explain why he was getting assistance and not the fact he's out (which he's not).

Why would he take it off? Having it on does not make things worse.

As above, not in the state.

Going to be a struggle enjoying beating Geelong, but I think I'll manage.

 

[Monkey Worshipper]

I actually like Mcginnity as sub, he does his best work when he is.

Also is it just me or does masten struggle every time Kerr plays..

Im sure theres a reason for it.
Thoughts?

Because the least attacking midfielder gets the No.1 spot, Matt Priddis. Masten gets judged on not being ableto play any other position, yet the most limited & least damaging player on our list (Priddis) doesn't. Why?

For a Prelim makes sense to bring accross 3 emergencies. I would expect 1 , maybe 2, might get in the team, but not all 3.

Who from here is travelling over east to watch the game?

We also took all 3 of our emergencies to Melb for the Collingwood game.

 

[Scooter#10]

E Mac wore a moon boot leading up to the Carlton game. He'll be right to play

 

[Die Hard Hoops Fan]

No chance of playing.
Don't think you're better off playing someone who is fit anyway?
Dragging injured players into finals is always fraught with danger

 

[groga]

Emac is that important for us he will play and play well.

 

[Scooter#10]

No chance of playing.

Wow, I didn't know you were part of our match committee

 

[Euro Star]

Bit like Joel Corey. Are you expecting him to play?

Even at 80%, Easy Mac will still take Spud Hawkins to the cleaners.

Bet you feel like a ******** now?

 

[wce1989]

The fact that Mitch Brown is not one of our travelling emergencies means that it is 100% certain that EMac will play on Saturday. No doubts about it.

 

[richy4]

Emac is playing, no doubt about it. The only possible change imo is Rosa for Masten, but they probably won't risk it.

Emac will play. Will be interesting to see how both Rosa and Joel Corey go after long periods out.

nope all traveled apparently

More likely to sub him unless there are injuries
