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

Frampton in as a forward for Johnson and McCreery in for Harrison. Frampton being in the team gives them the flexibility to swing him back if a forward is getting off the chain like what happened today with Tex.

I predicted it haha

 

[HFF]

Hmmm
Not sure about going in with the one recognised key forward only.

Let’s see if match committee know what they’re doing here

 

[eyeroller]

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

Beau's 50th game too!

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Not sure Bill will be played as a forward tho...

Now that Cox wears glasses he is a pretty decent forward, really can't be much worse that how Johnson has played the last couple of weeks anyway

Coxy may spend more time forward with Frampton helping out more in the ruck...

We have been all season to be fair without mcstay. Johnson isn’t a KPF, which is part of the issue for him. Cox and Cameron can bring the ball to ground well enough

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Thank Christ sanity prevailed and Frampton was brought in

 

[LuckyLee]

Suns close to full strength, in good form, no changes to a settled line-up and playing at home in the heat. By contrast, we tick very few of the same boxes.

I think we go in as underdogs this week.

Makes sense with GC talls but it’s a defence we haven’t trialled but it’s why we got Frampton. For sides like this

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if Cox plays full time forward and Billy plays second ruck.

Coxy has always been a good shot on goal. With & without glasses.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

People keep assuming Markov will get dropped

Yeah I don’t see it. Dude seems to be getting better by the week and plays like he knows he’s been given a great opportunity to be part of something special

I have a sneaking suspicion that if we do somehow manage to go all the way, Markov will have a Premiership Medal around his neck

We played with this defence in Round 2 against Port

Bloody hell. Have you forgotten their game against the Blues? We played a high intensity, high quality game against the Crows with a real finals feel about it.

 

[windchimes]

Only one proper key forward? Structurally doesn't seem to make sense, unless frampton rucks but I don't see what the point of bringing him in is then.

Possible that we are going to be doing a late switcheroo like we did with Ginnivan a couple times?

Coxy forward. Frampton can help in ruck if required.

 

[Snakerz]

If it’s not Dewy I’m backing in Cox to have a belter!

 

[Apex36]

Not a fan of Markov on the wing.

Hill is listed in the middle. The line up usually has a couple of strange ones

Howe wasn’t playing.

Agreed. They very rarely lineup as indicated in team selection.

 

[neilk]

I can't see him playing forward. We needed an extra tall in defence against GC.

 

[danielnajdek]

Nick to play full time in the middle and get 35+ and a couple of sausages.
