Changes vs SANFL Composite team

[Powerade 08]

Geez could you imagine dropping Lienert and Farrell, going back to guys who can't run or kick over a jam tim and basically waiting for our first week exit from the finals.

That would be the worst.

Farrell looked like he struggled out there but Lienert at his age looks like he'd do fine in a finals situation.

In Farrell's defence, it's pretty hard to set the world on fire from HFF or FP.
But it'll probably be his defensive skills that will need to be sharp this week.

In 3 degrees, as a small forward, in the rain...

If we need to get Farrell ready for finals, this weekend is a good test.

By the way, looking at the ladder and at our fixture, Finals start this weekend. Minor Round is over.

Farrell deserves another chance FMD how many chances did Neade and Impey get.
Give the kid a go!

3 degrees? Oh you're talking about the summery part of that day.

Very odd to be having a crack at Farrell.

How many champions of the game have had quiet debut's? Seriously, Farrell wasn't even that bad, definitely deserves another chance. The nerves and butterflies of a first game effect every player differently. To rule a line through Farrell having an impact in a showdown due to his performance on debut in some of the worst conditions played in this year is some of the more bizarre shit I've read on here.

 

[Port Proud WA]

So from the last time we played from a quick scan the changes are:

Port
IN: Pittard, Farrell, Lienert
OUT: Howard, Neade, S Gray

Crows
IN: Keith, Milera, Smith, Murphy, Sloane, Knight
OUT: Douglas, Seedsman, Kelly, McGovern, Otten, Poholke

The Crows have a couple big ins with Sloane, Smith and Milera, but have arguably lost just as much with Douglas, McGov and Seedsman. Especially if you consider Sloanes recent form, which just looks like he is playing with a bad injury.

Port on the other hand look pretty even. We're definitely more inexperienced, and will lose some forward line pressure, but we don't appear to have lost too much.

Scenes set for a ripper.

Good assessment! Fortunately, a lot of our inexperienced players are in our backline, which is currently the stingiest in the AFL. Very much looking forward to this...
