Preview Changes vs Port

[tonzdogs]

Bugger me, someone must’ve got into his head for a change

Bevo has to stop reading BF. This is getting spooky.

Is this the week we see West play midfield minutes?

OR is he going to move Scott to defence and put West up forward?

I didn’t think it was possible but we’ve actually gone even taller

 

[Bald]

Feel like Baker is a bit unlucky, but assuming he may be sub. I'm very keen to see Vanders off half back. Defensive changes make sense.

 

[King Harold]

Very disappointing Baker has not cemented his spot.
Good early form and gave us some much needed run.

Bloody hell. Port can afford to drop Ryan Burton, their depth is a whole lot better than ours!

 

[tonzdogs]

Hannan better not be sub

 

[iambrilliant]

Good changes

Even more amazing is that they quote the free kick differential from round 12 2022 rather than 2023, which for some reason has been doing the rounds on social media this week.

Quality work form the Port media team

West! Exciting IN.

Baker a bit stiff but hard calls need to be made, I guess. Won't be the last time we see him this year.

Big watch on Vanders.

Hannan better not be sub

Baker would be the better choice, but it will end up being mitch wont it.

Shush ....stop putting ideas into his head!

How so? Same number of talls as last week.

HOLD ON

JOD is still in.

HOLD ON

JOD is still in.

Yes named on the interchange

 

[ringa5]

Still playing the extra tall.
Why don't just back O'Donnell instead of sacrificing run? Cleary needs to learn to surf !

 

[Charlie Bucket]

Would’ve like to see JOD down back with either of Bruce/Keath left out.

Sides still out of whack.

 

[dergert]

Yeah this is a weird team

 

[lachy]

No real surprises, no one missing, out or in that would make the team any stronger.

No excuses with this team

I hope VDM proves me wrong. The club clearly sees something I don’t.

Other than that, fair changes I think. Good to see West back. Hope he makes himself undroppable.

 

[Nat Fyfe]

Weird side selected tbh. Would've preferred to see only one of Keath or Bruce come in, and have Crozier instead. Looking forward to see Vandermeer play in defence. Only real shock is Baker for West. They are very, very different players, so have to assume there's some shuffling of positions (Scott wing, West forward?).

I like it overall

 

[Bald]

Genuine question. Could JOD play the defensive forward role on Aliir that Schache did in the 2021 preliminary final?

 

[Struggle]

HOLD ON

JOD is still in.

Going at 50% scoring accuracy over the last 3 weeks. That's the kind of success we need in the forward line

I doubt very much he said that but could well have said this

Wenn Sie eine Lüge erzählen, die groß genug ist und sie immer wieder wiederholt, werden die Leute irgendwann dazu kommen, sie zu glauben.

 

[Optimistic Dog]

Got the quadrella no Gardner, O'Brien, McComb, Hannan plus McNeill as sub. Still do not know if we are going well enough to win but happy days just need Astro to play back now.
