Me too! But have to admit this guy is a fun player. Regardless of all the other things we might not like about him.

Agree, close to my fav non Pie. Bont probably no 1. Great to watch when he is not playing us

 

[Bianconeri]

Adams didn't play in the GF though

Ginnivan took the vacant spot which has now been taken by Schultz so Macrae will have to find another.

 

[Gone Critical]

Apparently at training Jamie just said how happy he is for Dean. Sounds like he is playing.

With Shultz that’s five in.

Outs from GF side are are Howe Ginnivan Murphy and?

Frampton? Am I missing somebody? Will Pendlebury get up?

Where is Frampton fitting into this?

Even without Frampton there will need to be another out for Macrae to be the sub based on those names.

Johnson will be outmarked, outplayed against the GIANTS. He was beaten by Gibcus.

Noble won't play, Dean won't be blooded yet. Frampton's experience is needed.

I don’t remember Gibcus out marking Johnson once.

Don’t think Frampton plays.

If they all play who is left out. Assume one is Frampton. Don’t know who the other could be if they are all fit to play other than Howe and Murphy.

This poster just literally makes things up and posts as facts all the time.

Yet in his only game ever against the Giants, which was last year, he has 14 possies, 5 marks, 1 goal, 6 tackles, 2 contested marks and 2 inside 50 marks. He has shown a bit at AFL level. Has had a very good pre season. I would like to see what he can do, we need him or Reef to step up.

To be fair Taylor didn’t play that game. But agree with your point. Johnson cops a lot of flak for someone who’s proven he can perform at AFL level.

Correct.

Based on that I’d think the changes from the grandfinal side are

Out: Murphy, Frampton, Howe, Ginnivan
In: Dean, Johnson, Noble, Schultz
Sub: Noble or Markov

Lippa was sub in the GF, so has he been accounted for? Because he'll definitely be playing.

He was sub but already in the 23 so he doesn’t need to be accounted for in the changes. For him to make the 22 Noble or Markov will drop back into the sub role.

That does account for it, Lippa in and Markov or Noble sub

Doesn’t mean the sun won’t come from there.

Who’s the other out making way for Macrae?

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I'm a bit torn on the result of this match.

My gut for most of the pre-season was that GWS would win.

But I'm a bit conflicted now. Seeing interviews with GWS players it seems like they're almost distracted by the idea of revenge? Rather than focusing on just winning the game?

I think the fact that we're travelling underdogs despite being reigning premier also probably helps us with the players' mindsets.

Also don't forget, I used the mug.
