Prediction R12 Changes vs Melbourne.

[Ge3ks]

Didn't Pearce play forward for a couple of years with us?

Pretty sure he played forward for a few games and Nat Fyfe fell on him and broke his leg... again. Was a disaster.

 

[arsesmart]

Like I said, we can have different opinions....

Any post using "this board" with a straight face is highly dodgy and either lacks perspective and/or is disingenuous.

 

[pK75]

Feel like our whole season depends on this game, was quietly confident this week, but getting nervous now

 

[ubiquitous226]

It took quite a while for this board to realise he was a lazy spud. Most of them turned on him when they heard rumours he wanted out. Bit like Switta right now.

Amusing little thread considering you have a habit of treating anyone with a different opinion to you as a complete idiot.

It has been covered many times but I thought Henry copped a hell of a lot, partly because of expectations but some of it quite justified too.
Have pot shots at his poor contested game, lack of depth in his kicking, inability to score much, off-field focus, etc. sure.
I don't understand the lazy part though, he covered the ground very well in his last season with us, and he was known as a hard trainer.

What part of the stadium are you buying lame beers from?

All beer's wet I s'pose. I was more interested in, when you quoted me I'd got *** for a word I used. I was saying if you were outside of the stadium having a smoke, then you wouldn't be inside learning to chant properly, but because of WACA talk, I was thinking old school and said if you were outside having a ***.

Assuming I get starred again, I was using a word that was common language of the time, synonym for smoke, cigarette etc. I assume it came from the word ****** thinking about, as in something you burn. No malice in me.

Whatever, I'm not playing the game where now, there is a list of words I can't use because now... What's going on when people are giving words so much power over themselves?

 

[Dockers v Channel7West]

I’m a big Darcy fan but worried he is still underdone fitness wise against Gawn on a fast deck..
The unicorn is going to have to work him over around the ground

 

[E Shed]

Pearce didn’t start out a bad kicker.
It was when his foot was injured & he was getting so jabbed up to play he couldn’t feel it when he was kicking.

He has gone down a level at St Kilda atm.
Definitely cruising by the looks

Think it was completely stuffed v Collingwood in 2019. Just kicked the ball not even 20m and the bone broke. Crazy he has gone from that to being the player and leader he is

Ok boomer

Seen him slot a nice set shot from about 45m near the boundary playing for Peel before his AFL debut.

Actually gave me confidence when he lined up for that crucial kick last Friday.

 

[sdfc]

Nah, he's shown very little, I'm just not bias. Questionable decision making, average execution, but he's from WA, so we ignore all that on this board. Cough Liam Henry cough

Liam Henry?

 

[sdfc]

Reference to Henry was how protected he was on this board

Blind? Lol ok, just not bias. Funny how bias this board is to anybody that wears purple

Young players make mistakes. It's why experience is so valuable.

The balance between Johnson's good and bad moments is heavily weighted to the good. My biggest problem with him is his second efforts are few and far between.

 

[FreoGirl]

at least our players/coaches have had a good look at how the new HTB rules are being applied, or not applied

 

[yakamoto]

Probably more confused than ever.

 

[Fred Ziffel]

Counts for little because historically they always make an example of Fremantle.
It could be horrendous for us but so far it hasn’t been as drastic as I thought it would.
We won’t be treated like Daicos last night, that’s for sure.

 

[JammoMonty]

Won’t stop Fyfe from getting done

 

[_007_]

I am strongly biased against those that don't know the term biased.

 

[mightymouse75]

Anyone else feel like the Match Committee has undershot our midfield requirements for this one? I reckon we lose midfield run from Johnson and support from Emmett and we’ve missed an opportunity to bring Ras back in to reward his strong WAFL form. Sturt and Freddy might give us some more forward options, but we need to get it to them.

Ras still burning disposals like a tip fire.
Johnson will be a loss.
Should have rested fyfe..

 

[arsesmart]

We can wear that. You can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs.

Richmond seemed to get the rough end of the pineapple last night.
Geelong players seemed to be holding back going for the ball at stoppages and just tackling knowing they would get either another ball up or a free.

 

[pK75]

Wagner named Sub again, Walters and Sturt in starting 22

There were a few harsh HTB calls last night.

Yeah going to be very interesting if MJ out makes a difference?
