Changes for Round 16 v Richmond @ The 'G

[Roachy8]

Morning Eagles - reckon you are a real chance this week!
How are your mids tracking? With Nic Nat back as well...

We are looking thin in the middle with Cotchin still injured, Martin nowhere near any midfield form and Prestia out thanks to Geelong's nicest and fairest player apparently

If Nick Nat starts jumping all over Nank and Soldo and gives your mids a good first look I really worry about a Tiger come-down after an epic, intense game last Sat and the subsequent palaba last night.

Out: Sad Willie
In: Jubilant Willie

Just rewatched the game, and he certainly wasn't his normal bubbly self. What was that all about?

I asked same question - apparently he was wearing a double black armband while the the others wore one, so he had an extra reason to not be cheerful?

"After one hit-out in the WAFL, Naitanui is locked in to play his first match"
'Pride comes into it': Nic Nat says Eagles plan to shape top-eight

I'm not sure that one hit-out from a ruckman in the lower league justifies selection in the seniors.

It does when Jamieson has a 2 possession game

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Who’s left to debut?

Culley, Trew … think that’s it?

Oh it’s Trew, maybe should have watched the video first Miguel.

Interesting call, we find out soon who's injured/dropped

 

[jaxxon]

At least they are trying everyone out before making decisions this year.

Naitanui for Jamieson, Trew for Kennedy (sort of), Edwards, SPS, Witherden and Culley(!) added to the extended bench.

coming back into the team to wreck us again.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Edwards for Rotham please.

Surprised by Trew but fantastic to see them using the back half of the season for what it should be used for. Would be massive if he makes it.

 

[Ochre]

Culley sub debut incoming

 

[Rowan18]

Interesting decision, from what I read in the WAFL thread, he doesn't necessarily deserve it.

Sounds like the club is keen to cycle through the list over the last 2 months so they know who to keep and who to delist. Will also help ensure we get pick 2 or 3.

 

[Rowan18]

Kane Lambert coming back into the team to wreck us again.

They need to sit a tagged on him all game.

 

[ziad]

Team our five minutes a go on Fox - where is the irrational commentary? And the sage stuff.

 

[DanWCE]

Culley sub debut incoming

Trip home to see the folks

 

[amazingjoshy]

Def not against playing the kids, but Trew off a 5 kick, 12 hb and 2 tackle WAFL game is hardly bashing down the door.

Still be good to see him

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

I’d go Edwards for Rotham, SPS for Kennedy (Ryan to play taller) and Trew for Petch. Rotham or Petch to be sub, Culley to get a free trip home as the 25th man, Witherden to stay behind.

 

[joeyavalanche]

Trew named on the field too.
Wasn’t lighting it up in the WAFL but keen to see how he goes.
Glad they’ve brought Culley over for the away experience, even better if he can come in as a sub.

Will be interesting to see who gets left out of the team

WAFL bye too so no real opportunity cost to taking Culley over.

He’s not ready to play AFL but if they do a sub debut for him I’ll be especially pissed.

 

[Wce17]

Trew now has a great shot at securing a list spot for next year. He’s clearly rated so hopefully he can go well and prove everyone wrong.

 

[Spooky17]

Culley a chance to debut?!
