Preview Changes for QF v Collingwood

[WCE Wizard]

I think Kennedy comes in

Who goes out .....Schofield is bloody good serviceable guy rarely gets beaten type ....

He can play on Jordan de goey deep

Allen misses and fu..k he was good today

Does Jetta play .....

Sheed has had two 30 possession games in a row ....he can’t miss

The one that might miss is Liam Ryan or venners

Sorry sheed is staying

Ryan was also good today looked clean crumbed well, ran hard to space, set up goals. Its a good problem to have

 

[WCE Wizard]

Schofield is too loose to play on de goey and and not agile enough. He is their most dangerous so has to be Shep on him

Shep goes to Degoey
Cole goes to Josh Thomas

 

[WCE Wizard]

Dropping Lycett for the final? Is this real life?

And bringing in Nelson ?

Would Degoey be simply too quick for Schoey?

 

[Total_Juddshanks]

Would Degoey be simply too quick for Schoey?

I thought Schofield was very very fortunate against Degoey when we last played them- got regularly beaten to the ball and let off through bad kicking.

 

[eagles rule]

Doesn’t Jetta always start off real rusty after missing a game? Doesn’t bode well for Muzz

Yes some of Jetta’s turnovers kill momentum or result in goals for opposition ..Jetta has been reasonable this year learning a new position probably why ppl turn a blind eye to his stuff ups ..

A side issue, but saw the WAFL stats for players -
"Brendon Ah Chee: Staked claim for AFL recall with 25 possessions, five marks, four inside 50s and two goals."
M.Allen - Classy left-footer was among the best afield with 24 disposals, eight marks and a goal.
Ainsworth - Continues to impress with game-high 33 possessions as well as 10 marks, three tackles and four inside 50s.
Brayshaw - Busy in the midfield with 29 possessions, six marks and six tackles.
England - Return to best form in the reserves with 27 disposals, 12 marks, six tackles, three inside 50s and two goals.

then Luke Partington -" Outstanding with 29 possessions, seven marks, seven tackles and three goals."
What does Luke have to do?

 

[JA56]

In: Kennedy Jetta

Cole Barrass Hurn

Ryan kicked 3 goals and had a few electrifying runs down the wing breaking a few lines and you think he might miss this week ..wow .

[Brunswick Trap King]

AFL don't give 2 shits about anyone who does not live in Victoria. They know that we will fill Optus on a Tuesday afternoon let alone a Thursday night so will make us play on a Thurs at a shit time to make sure it is convenient to Victorians so the rest of the games can be on a decent time and day.

They should make 1 v 4 play first in QF1 so if they are thinking a Thursday night it should be them... but no way in hell will they make 2 vic teams play on a Thurs.

Lol how's that conspiracy working out?

 

[ghostbat12]

Obviously not going to miss but Sheed recording zero tackles is a worry.

In Kennedy Jetta

Out probably Allen and wouldn’t be surprised if one of ruckman.

 

[dan78]

Duggan has to go. Every kick he had was a turn over. We cant bring that into finals. He needs to get better

Its easy for me
Jetta for Duggan.

Yup dudgan is a spud. He's a turn over king. Collingwood would love the footy in his hands.

 

[Tom_Thumb]

Duggan out for Jetta and Vardy out for Kennedy. I will be livid if Hutchings gets dropped he has been sensational the last half of the season.

Yeah i said maybe....probably not

 

[dave123]

..then its hurn ir shep

 

[Tom_Thumb]

Its a good position to be in with Gaff and Naitanui out, I personally want Allen to keep playing as he is our next 10 years and to give him finals experience in his first year is something that bodes well for our future.

One thing about Luke Partington is he is very sloppy and Im glad we are not giving games to players that cant use the ball. You can get away with that at wafl level but in the AFL it will kill us.

Sick of hear people talk like Luke Partington is some kind of saviour. Its obvious that he needs to work on his skills and decision making. Having Sheed and Duggan is enough. Dont want anymore poor users.

It all comes down to skills. Stats mean nothing. Get 30 possies a game but if you turn it over 10 times then you become a liability to us at AFL level. Its a standard and Partington isnt up to it.
Getting hands on it isnt enough.

Duggan is on thin ice and he shpuld be dropped. He would probally be getting 30 possies aswell if we dropped him. Ball use is what they look for. Oscar Allen played because he is smart with the ball.

 

[dave123]

Allen has ckean hands ...be runs to the right spots too.

He looks taller than 192cm ...but is agile ...

Could Schofield be dropped for allen ...whoever misses out will be unlucky

There is no need for all of Allen, Kennedy, Darling, Barrass, Vardy, McGovern, Schofield and Lycett. Pies fwd line is small with only 1 kpf. If it was my choice I'd axe Barrass and Lycett but reckon they will axe only Allen and be too tall

I would have liked Parto to be given games at Afl level he has a few good attributes such as finding the ball like being a ball magnet and kicking goals ..I feel it has been a opportunity missed to see what he can really do and improve on ..

[Suma Magic]

Candiru - can I request that you add a poll?

Who should be our 5th, 6th and 7th defenders (pick 3 from the 4 listed)?
Schofield
Jetta
Barrass
Duggan

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

Really hoping our match committee respects Collingwood enough not to go in too tall.

With their midfield depth and Grundy in the ruck, we will have a tough time winning the midfield battle. Being too tall not only hands the advantage to the Pies who can move the ball really quickly, it also means our midfielders will not have the rotations to keep them fresh for the battle.

 

[EagleEgo]

I am reading this thread with interest.
While some logically suggested the best team to beat Collingwood, some surprisingly want newer players to come in for "training and development" reasons.
Though we have a second chance in the final series, there is one and only one goal - Win every game in September!

Not barras now thats insanely crazy...

Our two pronged ruck is our structure...yeah nah...to them lol

 

[FKASC]

.

Averaging less than two per game since he sent back to the WAFL to work on his defensive game
