Preview Changes: R9 2019 v Brisbane

[Kane McGoodwin]

Gibbs in, likely for an injured M Crouch... or Kelly if not injured.

Jones or McHenry in for Gallucci.

 

[hey shorty]

Looking like a best 22 is the best outcome to me, certainly not the 1st rounder outcome you'd hope for.

Seems like he's gone backwards this year. Tonight he tried his backside off but just looks out of form.

 

[Scorpus]

The club expects Matt Crouch to play next week

 

[Time for a pint!]

Unchanged


Matthew Crouch should be ok.

Hope so, MCrouch is a jet inside. Poholke can play inside? He was the last out so I'd argue to bring him in if MCrouch ends up missing. Leave Gibbs out, imo, not doing enough to deserve automatic selection.

The club expects Matt Crouch to play next week

Unless its really severe, a seven day break with a corkie should see him right.

 

[Murray2503]

Didn't watch the game closely enough to see if anyone should be dropped but you'd think Gibbs will return if he's ready

Unlikely. Has been out of form all year. Let him get his head right and have some dominant displays in the sanfl first.

 

[Time for a pint!]

Not throwing it up as a change, but what are peoples thoughts on Tex? Could be just me, but he seems out of sorts for someone who did a full preseason.

[CrowCro]

Eddie needs to be managed to get through this year and next.

We aren't as reliant now IMO, particularly if Murphy maintains form

This should be Eddies last year

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Seedsman and Douglas both available this week?

Tex needs to do a bit more. Needs to take a few more marks. When he gets the ball his disposa is very good, just needs to get more of it.

 

[SydCrow]

Tex is fine. A game in the daylight with a dry ball would be nice for a change!

 

[Sanders]

Gooch is no where near a bust imo. Think that hev I’ll make it in the long run

Nowhere near a bust?

Are you sure you’re not overly influenced by his draft pick

Agree. It's just you.

 

[Tex Danger]

Out: Gallucci
In: Jones

Matt Crouch probably misses 0-2 weeks, Whitfield had something similar and missed 2.

Whitfield missed this week with a hip/groin not the original cork.

I’d expect crouch to play.
For every example of a player missing with a cork I give you 10 who do

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Saturday arvo at the Gabba.

Hope we drop a tall (Hartigan) and play another runner

 

[Tex Danger]

Tex needs to do a bit more. Needs to take a few more marks. When he gets the ball his disposa is very good, just needs to get more of it.

While tex didn’t impact the game for 12ims he was probably the best Key forward on the ground on a slippery scrappy night not made for hey forwards. His palm down to lunch in the last, Left foot pass in the 1st, his own goals were all key plays.

Not his best night but overall impacted the game

Groin was Kelly last week. Whitfield had the corked thigh/hip

 

[Tex Danger]

Groin was Kelly last week. Whitfield had the corked thigh/hip

No, I read that Cameron said it wasn’t the corkie that kept Whitfield out this week

 

[Shaz2012]

Out: Gallucci, Knight
In: Jones, McHenry

Gibbs to earn his spot in the 2s.

EH comfortably ahead of JJ now. We are so much better having a guy that can bring the ball to the ground and gives us a chance to set up/lock it in.

Seeds shouldn’t be rushed back. He is too important. Managed time in the SANFL and then back the next week.

 

[crows dude]

Seeds and Douglas into SANFL this week. Jacobs back the week after with Milera. Only Milera straight in for mine. Makes a very strong SANFL side against Port this week

SANFl - In Seedsman, Douglas, MacPherson
Out - Johnson, Hutcheson Brown

F Stengle Jenkins Strachan
HF Macadam Fogarty Wright
C McHenry Douglas Seedsman
HB Macpherson Otten Sholl
B Hamil Butts Davis
R Hunter Wilson Jones
Inter Boyle, Latchford,Merret

Next year is looking a very long way away for Eddie. We’ve got better options in the 2’s right now. A very unpleasant call may need to be made quite soon if he can’t recapture some form.

 

[Cromulent]

As much as we all love Eddie, I think he needs a week or 2 off to freshen up.

 

[ChilliP]

Brisbane's a long trip, Eddie is the oldest bloke on our list, we need to manage him to get him through the year, so I think it's a good time to rest him.

What playing Eddie does is it takes out an opposition defender. No club would let Eddie run around uncontrolled. He still has value. I would love to see him fix his set shot kicking.
