Strategy Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 16 vs. Gold Coast, HBS Sat 01/07, 4:35pm

[No SPIN]

Macrae is an above average VFL player. If Adams or Tom Mitchell were to play BFL they’d be superstars pushing 40 possessions each game.

Not when they were 20 years old.

And not sure what this has got to do with the point about size and centre of gravity etc. you posted that I replied to.

 

[Gabbo64]

I think it is as simple as this....You just play your best available team. I would back that in any day to beat GCS.
When the Hawks put them under pressure in the first 15 minutes last week they were no where to be seen. As soon as the pressure dropped they were up and about. That won't happen with us.

 

[TradeDraft]

Here. Neck soreness. Could still play

Playing in Vic could play but might not the best Idea with us playing Inter-State

Why?

Mitchell isn't one to compare him with. He's always been a ball getting freak. In his third year in the AFL system, Swans reserves played in the NEAFL rather than the VFL and he had a 60+ possession game and would get 25 from a flank when he played AFL.

I can't believe we've finished with the Sunday (or later) games and we'll now actually get our proper team announced on a Thursday!

 

[jmac70]

Why?

He might have to twist his neck for the in flight service.

It's an Australian domestic flight. The air hostesses won't make him turn his head as much as some airlines.

that reminds me of a Jim Jeffries gag, in all the movies in the 70’s air hostesses were hot, I don’t think any of them have retired

When you're flying, Australia's impressive labour laws protect your neck Not so with all countries.

The certainly hadn't on United, which I flew a lot in the 90's and 00's.

Thai and Singapore Airlines good at turning heads.
Not that I look. Much

 

[Doc1763]

Frampton in, AJ out.

You are still with us after flying United. Some sort of miracle

 

[anshell]

Frampton in, AJ out.

I had a feeling that that would be the way they would go,

 

[eyeroller]

Harrison to sub. Big Frampers in, Beau into starting 22 and AJ out

Team Selection: Key defender returns, substitute locked in

Craig McRae has confirmed the starting 23 for Saturday's Round 16 clash against Gold Coast.

Happy with those inclusions. Interesting to see who the sub will be. Normally a small

 

[Kes1984]

Welcome back Billy! Happy to see him back. Maintain it was a mistake to drop him last week.

 

[eyeroller]

The club's article says the sub will be Harvey

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

It’s Harvey Harrison

Would have thought so, will get slippery later the game goes.

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Will Cox play majority forward this week?

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Makes more sense to have an extra defender against Suns I guess. Beau will be extra fired up after his cameo last week.

 

[JuniorB]

Frampton makes sense given GC's 3 tall forwards.

 

[KinderSmock]

Predictable changes, really.
