Unofficial Preview Changes & Pre-match Discussion - Semi Final vs. Fremantle, Saturday Sept 10th - 7:25pm, MCG

[Doc1763]

Out: Adams, Murphy
In: Kreuger, JC(if fit), (if not), Henry

Murphy was really poor tonight.

LOL

I'd be tempted to keep changes as minimal as possible. Adams the obvious out - do we go mid for mid (Macrae) or do we go Kreugz?

I'm leaning to the latter. He just gives us so much, and helps protect Checkers. Fin or Ollie as the sub.

 

[Prexm]

Only real option for Adams is Carmichael, or Brown.

Out Adams, Gini In Carmichael, Brown.

Gini could also do with a spell, he’s not a ball hunter and not hard enough at the contest…you can get away with it during the season…there is a lot less time in finals. He’s had a taste, should rest up for next season. Brown plays like a man at least.

Kreuger in would be great, just don’t know who we’d drop. The talls were good today I thought.

No way Gin gets dropped for Brown. He kicked 3 against Carlton. Brown has kicked only 1 all year. Stengle was just as poor for them. Not sure who comes in for Adams. Brown is one of about 5 options. Doubt anyone will be dropped, only be forced changes.

It's a bit hard to impact the game when his TOG was only 46%. His ruck work was solid as usual.

Agree. Not sure if you noticed but on a number occasions Cox made good position but was ignored on a number of occasions.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Freo playing Dogs into form

Not now they're not. Looks like we will be playing Fremantle next week.

Small forwards have to be persisted with as they will have down games.

I thought it was a night game

 

[Bianconeri]

If he’s only playing 46% game time then his spot could be better utilised imo. We killed the Cats in the ruck today and what do we have to show for it?

Usually I’d agree but I don’t think we’ll get anything better out someone else getting more game time.

 

[eyeroller]

Dockers it is. Bring it!

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Dogs regularly collapse after half time - Freo still a good chance

This is why I was hoping for the Dogs , but either way if we're serious about it we beat either of these teams. Just gotta come up witha good system to cover Adams in the clearances.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Happier to play Fremantle than the Dogs.

I hope we're angry and vengeful.

 

[PyrrhicVic]

A dour dockers side that goes quarters without looking like kicking a goal.

Should be a comfortable win at the G if we're serious.

 

[parano1a]

Most likely another Saturday twilight game so Freo can fly home.

Smash the pricks.

I thought Fly underplayed him today.

 

[gouki88]

I thought Fly underplayed him today.

Absolutely. We we often with only one of he and DC on the field. Mismanagement IMO, given Geelong's aerial dominance

 

[mumblingpie]

Freo will still be tough to beat, but hope their not expecting to get the free kicks their used too
