Prediction Changes vs North Melbourne

[ep2018]

Cole out for schofield seems like a pre cursor to mcgovern late withdrawal

I think Waterman still being in the team makes me think Gov wont play and they will swing Ollen back maybe?

Or maybe rotham in . Oallen will be needed in the ruck and CHF if Kennedy is still lame .

If so then Allen goes back

 

[Chris_6678]

Maybe JK will be the late out and not Gov?

Being reigning premiers means nothing TBH.

We played the 17th side in the comp last week and were probably
lucky to get away with a win.

Norf are travelling a lot better than Melbourne.

We've won 9 from 11.
It's hard to keep winning.

I still don't see how you think we should win comfortably even though I hope we do.

The only game I would feel comfortable wining easily right now would be GC.

Feeling comfortable wining against only GC does not just apply to Us. That is the case for every other team. Now like every other team, every game is tough so wining it is more important than what position they are at. Once again our result has shown we have been more consistent thant 95% of the competition to date. Let's hope we continue this.

IfvGov is a late out, I'd bring in Rotham and have Schofield (196 cm) on Brown (200 cm), Barrass (196 cm) on Larkey (198 cm) and Rotham (193 cm) on Wood (192 cm).

Sheppard and Frankie (both 187 cm) can cover Wood for a rotation and Frankie (187 cm) so not small and could also cover Wood.

And its a day game so no dew!

or anti-dew spray? need some anti-Roo's spray!

I’m hearing NN late 2019

Fixed that for ya

 

[Doughboy]

Not having stressful close games would be nice for once!


Winning by a few more than a few would be good...

So much this

The gap in ability between 1st and 17th is as small as it’s ever been. Gold Coast are the only side going into each weeks games who are difficult to make a case for winning. Every other side you can make a reasonable case as to why they might win

Only Geelong (8) and Collingwood (7) have won more than 5 games in a row and ourselves and Brisbane are the only two other sides to reach that mark at any stage during the season

Games have been hard to win and backing up for weeks on end even harder

Get the win and be grateful for it. If there’s a significant margin attached that’s just icing on top

Maybe; North do have a tall fwd line, and there is a certain lack of solidity, experience and leadership without Hurn; Schofield in helps to shore these things up. Hope Gov plays, we are significantly weaker without him and even more so without Hurn too.

You must be joking if you think we win by 10 goals. How about just win. anything else is a bonus.

IQ says 2 goals, EQ says 10 goals.

 

[Chris_6678]

HT says Nic Nat returns tomorrow and kicks 6

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Simpson said there was no doubt over McGovern, who clutched at his left ankle in alarming scenes last weekend before returning to the field following treatment.

That's it. Gov out.

What about Blaine FWit??!

This is brilliant. Deserves a quote.

Using the Pies as a form guide as to what consecutive interstate trips does for a teams form -
First week: clash against a top 4 team (Eagles/Lions) have a close game (they won/we lost)

Second week: clash against a top 4 team (GWS/Eagles) possible thumping?

Predicting a 2018 prelim final performance by you guys. Absolute s**thouse fixturing by the AFL

Massive frauds this year. I pray they get a final interstate first week but Geelong finishing 1st means they’ll either start at the G or get a prelim at the G. They can’t lose.

It’s the first time I’ve ever encountered consistent back to back travel as a fixture feature but if we get hammered then I will almost certainly pencil in Geelong for a loss

Back to see how this went and it’s 3 out of 3. Money to be made here.

Swans have back to back travel coming up against Port and the Demons next week
