Preview Changes: R4 2021 vs North Melbourne

[Alwaysacrow]

Wont be delisted.... traded perhaps

To whom? Who would want him seriously? He struggles to have an impact at the lower level. I'm very disappointed in him. Can't see him making it TBO.

 

[Stephen2]

meh, can't melt too much at this. But I was hoping for Frampton to be flicked for RT. One day...

He'll make it.

People at footy clubs look at things a little bit more in depth than you and I. Had a positive impact today

 

[Dudersaurus]

Yes.

Sorry, double-barrelled question.

Thanks for clarification.

Next home game

 

[Southerntakeover]

If they'd gone Mackay over Fog I might have died from the apoplexy.

One day, next week.

 

[Mutineer]

I reckon there's no doubt Tommy's playing tomorrow after they've put this up just a while back?

 

[Mutineer]

This just gone up as well..

 

[hey shorty]

Mackay sub it seems.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I see that we've got three Sunday lunchtime games in a row

Not exactly regarded as a drawcard at the moment. Pedlar will change that quick

 

[Alwaysacrow]

He'll make it.

I saw he had a good 2nd half today, good signs I guess but he'll have to do a fair bit more than that to make his way into the afl team I'd say.

 

[Redleg Crow]

It is time for Fog to start to move from potential to reality.

The joy at Fogarty's inclusion is justified and he'll get 2-4 weeks (Sloane injury time) to force someone else out when Sloane is fit again. I hope he makes it, this time.
I do not like the message sent re: Frampton's re-selection ie "You can have two bad games and even be worst-on-ground in the second bad game, but you'll be retained as part of a winning side. You prosper, on the back of your teammates' good form".
If I was Worrell or Thilthorpe, I'd be spewing.

For starters there's no way Worrell comes in ti replace Frampton after training with the defenders all pre-season and in every trial game and his 2 SANFL games.
And neither Thilthorpe or Himmelberg have done anything in the 2 SANFL games they've played that's close to getting a call up to AFL unless Billy stinks it up big time tomorrow or we cop an injury

 

[Maddogmetro]

Perfect chance to give us the information we need. Can Fog be the big body in the midfield we need?

 

[Murray2503]

It is time for Fog to start to move from potential to reality.

You would hope so as North are likely the worst AFL side seen over the last 20years.

Agree it's not a good statement to retain Frampton. Tbh it's not a good statement to play him in the first place. The problem is that Thilthorpe is not ready and Himmelberg is going through the motions even though he is a better player than Frampton. Frampton will be out of the team soon imo. Walkers performances are carrying him but if Walker drops off the spotlight will be directed his way.

The real question is who will be coming out for Pedlar? Will debut for us next week or the following week imo. Would debut him against Freo at home.

 

[Bay62]

With Fog in the middle against North...it could be what Billy Birmingham aka Tony Greig used to call “feckin CORNage!”

 

[Thylacinus]

I can't recall having a genuine centre square player who can break the lines like Pedlar since Dangerfield.

 

[WetCrow1991]

The Fog is a midfielder and I'm tired of pretending he's not.

 

[MrBarry]

Love it, really want Fog to hold his spot now.

 

[CrowinNT]

The misfiring midfielder, the tweener we don't know what to do with, and the invisible key defender, so many embattled former first round picks to choose from this week.

Oh dear Wabbit at least you should be happy with not having to see a Crouch on the park

 

[Deaneus!]

People say this about someone every year, so I look forward to seeing how bad they actually are

if he can kick he’s already better

You play talent, Billy isn't a talent.

I wouldn't waste time with Berg but RT should come in.
