Preview Changes v Melbourne Demons, Sunday 3:20pm Marvel Stadium

[Chadwiko]

Because we’ve seen what his ceiling is and it’s vfl level at best.

We’ve got Dawson in the wings who has loads more promise and potential.

It’s pretty ****ing obvious chad

Which Dawson?

Kal is not better (and the coaches agree, clearly).
Will is not AFL ready.

I love how literally every other team flips their own narrative.
Hawks, Richmond and now Adelaide have all become teams to be either feared or somewhat respected due to the fact that they might well win.

Meanwhile, there’s lowly North, hoping to feed off of the pus from things such as a depleted bulldogs (and still failing), on their way to.. What would be a pass mark this year? How low is our bar? 4 wins?

And yet… there are those who still confidently expect us to win every week.

Bit early to put Richmond in that category IMO, they were extremely high on emotion and energy last week combined with Carlton being full of their own bathwater. Still think they struggle to win more than 2 or 3 games.

Shotgun. Hes as ready as pink, with a much higher ceiling

 

[DrZaius]

I think when we play the bye we will get a real indication if we have improved compared to our most recent seasons

Yeah, hopefully we can count on a win that week

He's not.
He's still very skinny at age 19. He would get absolutely destroyed and it would stunt his development and kill his confidence

When is the last time we won a game like that?

 

[Skarrz]

I think it's already started.

Should just be Preview/Autopsy all in one so people can claim they were the Nostradamus before the game even starts

Higher ceiling - absolutely

Ready - not really.

After an interrupted preseason, he's still feeling his way back at VFL level (and VFL practice game level, at that)

There can only be one

 

[Disco Dew]

Pink, LMac, Corr, Tucker, Daniel, Chom on one leg..

Our backline is basically..

Gingers sticking together, its quite admirable.

Not ginger.

Not ginger.

Stand proud bro, it's a good thing. Hopefully Pink goes well, he was unlucky to be playing back early last year during a period where SOS couldn't have stopped oppo forwards and then got thrown forward later in the year.

Richmond's win has "king of marvel" all over it. Sometimes a side with no cohesion that's full of young players will do something the opposition wasn't expecting and happen to catch them on their absolute worst imaginable day. It's not going to last.

 

[Devington]

Hey, at least we know this week's small defender isn't going to get cited for rough conduct.

 

[Friday Night Lights]

How often we talking? Lol

Well Xerri and Archer last year for a start

 

[Caracas]

Has there ever been a more beige anything in the history of everything than our interchange bench?

Hey listen I have nothing against red heads. But... Man, before my hairline receded like an army retreating, my hair was dark brown. There's not an ounce of ginger in me or my family lol. I've been on TV multiple times, and heaps of BigFooty veterans have seen me.

If this is how you perceive reality no wonder you have so much difficulty accepting reality regarding Will Phillips.

 

[Sphynx]

He's not.
He's still very skinny at age 19. He would get absolutely destroyed and it would stunt his development and kill his confidence

Very skinny?

Isn’t he like 6’8 and around 100kg’s at the moment?

I think it’s mostly match fitness with him at the moment, not body size

A celebrity amongst us. A role in neighbour's? Ed sheerans double? All good mate, don't need to justify how ginger you are or aren't to me.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Don’t forget development

Is Bergman still 60kgs dripping wet?

Oh for sure. Not enough investment there. Perhaps a few kids might have made it.
You can at least see some development in RHJ this offseason.

I watched him up close at training yesterday during match sim. Compared to Corr/Comben/Logue/Pink, he is absolutely skinny.

That's not a massive concern or anything by the way. The kid is 19. Give him time to bulk up.

 

[Zondor]

So Cat Stephens and Trigger Pink are the Ins. Well this just highlights the depth of our list. For all the high end draft picks we have had at our disposal this is what we have to show for it. You all know who the primary culprit is for our current list make up. Time to see the truth that is all staring you in the face. :stern look

Reason for Edit.

 

[Psicosis]

Keep hoping for a different result don’t they?

Can tell you exactly what we will be talking about on Sunday night. The thing about continuing to make the same decisions, you end up with the same results.

 

[Chadwiko]

Sphynx and tales129 - the VFL team was just announced and Wil Dawson isn't starting there either. He's named on the extended bench.

So, yeah... the thought he should have been called up to AFL is clearly a bit off.
