Preview Changes: R20 2019 v St Kilda: it's a SUSHI-PIZZA PARTY!!

[Golumless]

If structure is the problem drop Murphy not Stengle.

Well no. Murphy is much more vital to structure then Stengle.

Betts shouldn't be in period.

 

[Crow till I die]

Otten, Douglas and Dmac taking us to the promised land

september holidays?

 

[PrideoSA]

Where’s Keath?

Pyke said (before or after Carlton game?) Keath will be rested again, miss 2 weeks

 

[Slippery Pete]

Drop Betts for one week... against his old side. On his favourite ground.

Then bring him back.

What was the point of that?

 

[baby back Bibs]

Doubt greenwood, keath or Jenkins play again for us. All gone.

 

[Scorpus]

We do seriously baffling stuff.

Drop some guys that deserved it. Wilson, Jenkins, Seed fair enough.

But then we bring back Douglas? Drop Stengle for Betts?

Why have we waited until now to play Fogarty?

Why is Gibbs good enough this week but not those previous weeks?

Why haven't we dropped Mackay, Atkins, etc?

There is no logic to these selections

 

[Slippery Pete]

Jenkins (IMO definitely being traded at year end) to be replaced by Fog gets the big tick. Jenkins can't take contested marks and doesn't work hard enough.

Why didn’t those ****ing idiots do this the first time Jenkins was dropped?

 

[Burtonsgottago]

I really don’t understand what Mackay does to keep his place. I really don’t understand which direction this club is going. I really don’t understand why I keep watching.

 

[thebirdman 24]

Well no. Murphy is much more vital to structure then Stengle.

Betts shouldn't be in period.

Or change the structure and play all 3?

 

[Slippery Pete]

Richard Douglas, David Mackay and Andy Otten...

You couldn’t make this stuff up.

 

[Deaneus!]

You couldn’t make this stuff up.

I reckon you could, if you start with "what can i do that's completely stupid?"

 

[Don Muraco]

Well no. Murphy is much more vital to structure then Stengle.

Betts shouldn't be in period.

Is this the structure that has served us so well all year?

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Disappointed they didn't select Jones and drop Atkins.

Why does this club try to squeeze every last drop out of our ageing players ... to the point where we hate to see them being selected and forget what good players and club-men they were in their heyday?

Brilliant comment

 

[the universal]

Absolute ****ers dropping Stengle again. ****ing pathetic. What the **** do you want more from a small forward with his experience?

 

[the universal]

And anyone who saw Douglas' end to the final quarter last week would have seen that he should not be brought back with the myriad of mistakes he made at the death.

 

[Slippery Pete]

Absolute f***ers dropping Stengle again. ******* pathetic. What the fu** do you want more from a small forward with his experience?

That’s twice he’s been given one game and then dropped.

Youth development policy.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Farewell game for Douglas?

 

[hey shorty]

A whole heap of meh for mine.

Gibbs yes
Eddie yes but not for Stengle
Fogarty yep
Douglas...... ****

 

[dblstR]

Things I'm not happy about:

In: Douglas, Gibbs
Out: Stengle

Otten, Atkins, Mackay still playing.

GL Fog enjoy being dropped after 1 game. 100% not attending the game.

 

[MrBarry]

 

[Elite Crow]

Douglas

Especially with Chase Jones waiting in the wings.

Always horrid in clutch moments - a couple spring to mind:

- A game against Carlton where he inexplicably handballed backwards to noone when all our players were ahead of the ball.
- Running into Mitch Mcgovern and taking out another of our players against Port when Motlop goaled.

 

[MRB37]

Farewell game for Douglas?

No, I think they genuinely believe he still has something to offer. He has yet to have a good AFL game this year, but they keep trying with him hoping he can turn it around.

Now he is in for at least a month as we give older players many more chances to come good than youngsters.
