Changes: Gold Coast vs Fold Coast

[RookiePick]

Club doing some excellent work in promoting support for the Beagles.

Every chance this wall papering the cracks approach will bite us on the arse. If Gold Coast come at us watch us curl up under pressure.

 

[RanaNaved]

Yeah I'd be pissed if I were Brander

 

[aflfootyfanatic]

WC fan thru and thru just praying we dont lose to GC

Mallen is a class above wafl level if we don’t give him a gig someone else will

Unlucky for Mallen that Redden was ready to come back in.

The flag changes everything. The loyalty to those players will override a lot of things now... They are clearly backing them in and let’s hope the faith will be repaid. To be honest, I think it is the right rein for now, the guys and coaching staff need to dig in and get back on track. I don’t think a couple of periphery changes is going to be the difference between a win and loss this week. If the worst case scenario eventuates... there will be action you’d think!

 

[Shuestar13]

Going to be such an insipid flat track

Don’t know about insipid... but a big flat tracking win would be most appreciated

 

[DanWCE]

Get down to Freo oval 1:15pm Saturday, I reckon one Matty Allen is going to light it up with a serious point to prove.

I'm glad the media are throwing up his name. The "Partington Pressure" will build.

A huge flat tracking with a few upsets in other games would see us back in the thick of it

This is a good post however we didn't win the flag by picking a team on paper then sticking with it regardless. We rolled quite few players through and when we had soldiers down we had replacements ready to go. We even dropped Sheed and Schofield who were both very unlucky at the time.

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

Inspired changes.
We have a few easy games coming up, so we'll beat up a few weaker teams and go back to feeling like we're going B2B.

Was hoping a reality check 6 rounds in was in our best interest. Turns out reality probably won't bite until too late.

 

[Cuzz09]

Dont care who is in just be good to see them play well and win.

As long as the boys back it up against convincing opposition.

Absolutely A win is all that is needed, but even so, hopefully we can start playing some proper football again!

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

If I was MAllen I'd be asking for a trade. Does Waterman still have lingering hamstring issues? 13 goals in 3 weeks is apparently not good enough for our superbly functioning forwardline. Darling better repay the faith this week.

Not as upset as some about Brander. If you're given an opportunity you have to seize it and he's shown next to nothing so far.

 

[Avalor]

Lack of change and a lack of opportunity for Mallen and co is very disappointing. The selection committee need to grow some.

 

[BeornJ]

Eh I'm not too fussed on the changes. Redden is an obvious in.

Its not the team selection, it's the game plan and team performances that need to change.

I also don't think we're going too badly.

I don’t disagree at all. If we lose, then there needs to be action. There has already been one major change, reverting to one ruck for now is a big thing. I hope if we can pick ourselves up again, we can continue to integrate some youth into the side. I think for now it’s all hands on deck though.

 

[mattyc75]

Venables, 8 possessions in the WAFL, gets picked. 8 possessions in the league side, stays in. Hmm

I guess they're happy he's playing up to his potential
If we are serious about the rest of the season brander wont get another game.
He shouldnt have been included last week.
He'll come good but just not up to it yet.
Its actually quite rare that we have youngsters have extended runs of good form in the wafl.partington was 1 and mallen and waterman are others.not sure why they bother

We’ve beaten a couple of good teams so far this year... We need to take care of each week as it comes. With the exception of 2-4 sides, everyone else could be considered convincing opposition.

Games gone past half of them...

Farewell laps for JD, Shuey, Redden, Ryan, Cole, McGov this weekend

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Mallen should have played last week instead of brander

 

[kerr87]

This is ******* pathetic. I’d be happy for Brander to leave the club and stick it up West Coast. Disgraceful handling of a young player.

Why did he deserve to stay in?

Match committee have realised we're too tall and he had to go.

We're hopefully giving Allen one more chance before we drop him for Waterman.

How did they not know we were too tall before the geelong game?
