Opinion Changes v. Essendon

[sobrave]

If Hayes is fit and doesnt play there is a good chance Im done watching any further games this season. Absolute last ******* straw.

Hayes ruckwork has been one of the few good things to watch this season

 

[Us against the rest]

He is still on our list as he has that skill that most don't. You can work on running and fitness.

I know 2020 was a covid interrupted season and he didn't resume playing until about round 15 2021 if my memory is correct.
You would think if our fitness people were any good he would be at peek fitness by now, he has had a pre season and we are 2 months into a new season.

Marshall is a goal ahead of taylor walker

One thing's for sure, atm he is our most accurate kick for goal, something lacking in our team right now, although having Farrell back in is a bonus.

 

[Saltiga]

Yeah i see your point and I'm not disagreeing. Imo if Williams is not going to play AFL why is he on our list, he is atm showing some form and if he can't improve his running ability then it's pointless him taking a spot on our list.
I would still like to see him at AFL level at some point to give him a chance, then after that we can all make our own judgements.

He'll play when Robbie retires.

 

[jac147]

People have such short memories. Remember when Williams did get a game and was horrendous? His conditioning and speed was no where near the level required for AFL. He still has a long way to go.

I remember that game against the Swans at AO. In the dying moments of the last quarter Williams jagged the ball into our forward lines when another 'Port whipping boy' - Sam Mayes - grabbed the ball and slotted it through for a 'sausage roll', and got us the 4 points. The boy has got some talent but because we are playing Robbie - and rightly so - he can't break into the side.

 

[Windy Cindy]

Why? we played Robbie with S Gray, and now with Mcentee.

i watched last week and id have schofield and frederick well ahead of mcentee

 

[Windy Cindy]

surely they don't drop MG, play the kid up the ground, let him use his tank, i cant see the point in dropping our future talent, the seasons done for **** sake.

all we hear about is how much of an aerobic animal he is, well lets start using it.

fancy considering dropping hayes, one week before the bye, when we keep saying he needs to improve his tank.

**** hinkley shits me.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Marshall is a goal ahead of taylor walker

Yes but Taylor Walker is a racial slur ahead of Marshall.

 

[Tibbs]

i watched last week and id have schofield and frederick well ahead of mcentee

So would I. But forget McEntee, he wont be playing. It is just his turn to be the emergency. Much prefer the other two to continue getting consistent form with the Maggies.

And to the others here saying Hayes will be dropped. Stop it people! Hayes is playing. That stupid list the club puts out is is wrong just about every other week.

 

[Chachi]

Yes but Taylor Walker is a racial slur ahead of Marshall.

To be fair to Tay Tay he's got that on most AFL players.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Hayes ruckwork has been one of the few good things to watch this season

Singlehandedly worth the price of admission

 

[Chachi]

How does Mcentee get a game but Williams can't.

FTFY

 

[Powertron]

Confirmed Dixon, Bonner in and Jones, Mitch out

 

[sobrave]

Confirmed Dixon, Bonner in and Jones, Mitch out

Don't mind Mitch out. Needs to figure out how to kick the footy again.

 

[RossFC]

Emergencies: M. Georgiades 19, L. Jones 34, J. McEntee 41, M. Frederick 45.

 

[DBrowJ]

So Hayes hasn't been dropped? I can't believe it!

 

[Hot Port]

My goodness, they didn’t drop Hayes..

 

[Andre]

Hmmm. Well a tall was going to get dropped, since Motlop has a gold pass. That's the least bad option of a choice that shouldn't be made. Jones out? He needs to learn to slow down and adjust to AFL pace when required, as his most glaring issue. Something that SANFL time will help zero with. I'd rather they'd changed the e with a and dropped Jonas, but wishful thinking there.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Fine with the changes as long as they are used well.

MG hasnt offered enough lately. Reckon he needs to go grab a big bag or three in the SNAFL.

 

[bringbackbucky]

No way I would have dropped Jones. Looks made for wet weather footy.

A bit rough to ask him to design a guernsey that he doesn’t get to wear in front of his family…

 

[Us against the rest]

i watched last week and id have schofield and frederick well ahead of mcentee

I really like the speed and footy smarts of Frederick.

 

[TeeKray]

Jones for Bonner is a good change.

Dixon for MG is fair on form.

I do question why we now have two of our most talented young players (MG and Duursma) playing SANFL whilst some senior players in questionable form continue to be carried.

 

[gbear]

Jones for Bonner is a good change.

Dixon for MG is fair on form.

I do question why we now have two of our most talented young players (MG and Duursma) playing SANFL whilst some senior players in questionable form continue to be carried.

I can’t believe DBJ is still getting a game. He seriously must have something on Ken, as he has been out of form for over a year!

 

[PowerLil]

Jones for Bonner is a good change.

Dixon for MG is fair on form.

Great question
You know the.answer you trickster.

Your not kidding there Jonas would be the worst player that has ever captained Port Adelaide in my lifetime.
