Unofficial Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Round 21 vs. Melbourne, Fri 05/08, 7:50pm MCG

[CPH12]

HA HA CLASSIC!
i bet professor Gawn will give him a stern talking to, "don't fire

If all the dumb things you can do to fire up your opposition, publicly sledging them the day before the game is right up there at the top of the list.

Thanks Ed. Clearly Tom got the brains of the two boys.

All good, can't wait for the boys to get the might ducks chant going after we win tomorrow

 

[Corn Cobbers]

After they beat us in round three he smugly told the press he and his team knew our game plan was not sustainable so they were not overly concerned when we got out to a big lead.

Yet fielding 14 players over 30yo each week is sustainable

Can't stand him.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Can't stand him.

I used to like Geelong til he came along. Him and Selwood, speaking of ducks.

Pressure is all on Melbourne this week. I'd be surprised if they didn't come out firing & bring their best game. Despite the rhetoric they know we are shaping to be a contender & will want to snuff that out.

 

[swoop42]

The loss of Adams hurts our chances because he's our version of Viney and like Viney he sets the example of unflinching football that can inspire his teammates to follow.

Melbourne really have no excuses tomorrow night, outside of McDonald they have a healthy list with no others missing from their best 22.

All the pressure and expectation is on them, they deserve to be favourites and if they're back in Premiership winning form like the media are suggesting should end our 10 game winning streak comfortably.

Over to you Ed.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Oh boy.

They’d wanna make sure they don’t lose now

 

[whiskeytown]

They’d wanna make sure they don’t lose now

Ed Langdon? Pfft… Not even the best player in his family

Hmmm back to their winning form by beating a team that didn't actually turn up?

 

[neilk]

Embarrassing question. What does "all duck and no dinner" actually mean?
Edit: I think the correct saying is actually "all duck OR no dinner".

 

[Chrispiesssss]

JC keeps his spot.

All or nothing.

Arrogant chirper is basically saying we can only play one way, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Hence the added comment of one trick pony.

I would argue that it works a lot of the time. Like against Melbourne this year when we won by 4 goals

 

[gouki88]

Astonishing.

 

[jmac70]

Little whisper that the boys have been going in very hard at training. Keen to make a statement.

The thing is...they beat us?? so what?? This time of the year when the finals are coming.....they're scared and we've got nothing to lose...go for it every game we have left!

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Can't stand him.

Both the Scott brothers were thoroughly detestable as players and even more so as coaches.

 

[jmac70]

Let’s try to support the boys instead of laying the boots into the Brown boys. Again.
Would love some of these heroes to say that to Gavin.

 

[domus]

How is Callum brown an emergency over macrae. wow

He can run out a game at the highest level.

 

[nahnah]

Pretty straight forward selection again

 

[domus]

2nd worst player in club history, after Tyler

You haven't been following the Pies for very long if you believe that.
