Preview Changes & Preview for Semi Final 2 vs Hawthorn @AO

[MrChow]

Hmmm. Rat back. Zone defence staying deep with all 6 defenders evenly spread through the back 50 for the whole game. And no chasing the hawks up and back the field into and out of their stupid nest.

In: Marshall and Sinn, could it possibly be more uninspiring.

Who would have you brought in?

 

[Doctor Feel]

Marshalls career likely to end with Hinkleys

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I think the line up is about all they could have gone with. This idea it's super-tall is an overreaction. There's one more tall han we played in the past 2 months and 1. Marshall's on the bench and 2. He's as mobile as a medium sized player.

Gives them plenty of flexibility forward and back with talls as well as small/mediums. The backline lines up as I expected to get DBJ forward again.

This game will come down to us maintaining the across the ground pressure rating we produced for weeks on end before last week.

I don't think Hinkley will go easily so we will probably win.

You forgot use know nothing Dixon.

This is why it was dumb to not give Sinn a run in round 23.

The issue is we were beaten by Geelong when the ball went to the ground, something the Hawks are very good at.
In saying that I think we will win. Rat will have to play back, DBJ could go forward.

Dwayne Russell on SEN told me, not a hope in hell will Ken Hinkley use Ginnivans cocky remarks, to Grundy, totally dismissing Port, for motivation, said he cant be that desperate. Not sure bout that, if i were ken an port, id be seething over their cockiness.

Ken wouldn't even think twice about a comment dismissing Port. A comment calling him a shit coach he would go and threaten the source of them put some crocodile tears on, but that's because he cares only about himself.

Which quarter do you think we will sub Dixon out in?

Atleast the spuds go down with the ship with Ken.

We likely won't see Marshall and Dixon playing under our next coach.

 

[Byrons Firen]

That was weird.

That was just weird. Hinkley emphatically denying that Burton was under a cloud, and then soon after the press conference the club ruling him out.

Deep down I think the Club has moved on from sprinkles

 

[FishingRick04]

I'm looking forward to the fights after Sicily tries to run through Butters.
Will be on like Donkey Kong.

Hope Dixon throws someone over the fence.
Shame we don't still have the pickets.

Disappointed we couldn't find a way to play Sam Gray and Jake Neade for this game.

Rucci reminded me today, the umpires are supposed to award frees to injured players that are targeted, I wonder if they still remember that rule

He'll start

 

[jdeezy]

He'll start

I'm still waiting for him to be subbed on last week

 

[Interstater]

Dixon and Marshall late outs for Lorenz and Williams.

 

[GremioPower]

Lol 16 flags?? Counting flags from a bygone era now are we??

If that's the case, try 37 on for size big boy

41

We have 41 flags.

SANFL: 36
ANFC: 4
V/AFL: 1

 

[El_Scorcho]

I assume Esava will go back to defence, where he wasn't terrible this year. He's a much better defender than forward.

I'd hope DBJ comes forward in return but we'll see. DBJ makes us so much better up forward, we really lack effort and grunt when the ball hits the ground if he's not there.

I know everyone wants Dixon out but I don't agree. The alternatives are worse. Esava is worse. Vis/Lord are worse at the moment. Dixon will take a better defender, he can ruck and ruck well, and he's half a chance of clunking a couple of marks and kicking a couple of goals. Georgiades and Dixon with Marshall playing higher, with DBJ back up forward, is a forward line setup with a chance of being successful, last week's certainly wasn't.

 

[FishingRick04]

Yep let the big defenders sit back in a triangle, let them run at them with midfield pressure to ensure minimal spot kicks and more bombs

 

[MrChow]

Hawthorn really are a very small team. The bomb it on Charlie’s head 15m out, actually might be a masterstroke strategy by Ken.

Charlie to kick 5.

 

[JohnHinckleyJr]

With big clumsy, no-goal Esava.

At least their is no pindick manandee

And then a mighty ducks V with Esava, Allir and Jones mowing through the poo brown that is Hawthorn.

RIP Jedtember

From Jedtember to Todtember. The footy gods work in mysterious ways.

 

[Jello_B]

How any accountable organisation can play Dixon after the pus he put up last week is beyond me. I know we’re bad, but this is another level bad.

 

[Felipe16]

They are really banking on an outsized forward line with Frost ruled out...
