Preview R16: Changes vs. GWS Giants

[Scorpus]

Berg has played some decent games.

Burgess doesn't even look like it.

It's an absolute waste of time to play Burgess as he is terrible at AFL level.

Burgess has played more competent ruck football at AFL level than Himmelberg

Not for us yet, but still

 

[WeeBlake]

Trying to be slightly realistic:

Out: Strachan, Murphy, Berry, Borlase
In: ROB, Taylor, Walker, Pedlar

Butts Murray Max
Nank Keane Hammil
Hinge Dawson Jones
Rachele Walker Rankine
Keays Fog Cook

ROB Soligo Taylor
Schoenberg Dowling Pedlar Sholl Jones (sub)

Pedlar

 

[WheresGroomgone]

Out
Murphy for god’s sake he can’t keep being given AFL games
Jones sorry son you are no good
Laird ineffective
Cook can’t carry his 1-2 magic moments
Nicks great team building - love fest - coaching you no good

 

[Harris1991]

OUT: Garbage
IN: Garbage

Such a shit list.

 

[WheresGroomgone]

Oh and Matthew…

Dowling in his second afl game he’s a midfielder why play him down back but play Max in the mid and Soligo half forward?

Don't know why we traded burgess in. Backup I guess. Surely better out there if we bother looking.

 

[Greenfinger]

Nah I’ve seen enough of Keane. Drop. Trade. An absolute disgrace for a month now. How Nicks didn’t permanently send Butts or Murray to Amartey is anyone’s guess, but Keane’s pathetic efforts have cost us this game.

Wasn’t solely what cost us . Midfield got completely torched

Worrell out hurts us but Max should have e been in defence helping with Amartey. Keane should have been shifted quarter 1. We are a completely different team with Tex and Thilthorpe as well. Fog can't do it all alone. He isnt a Walker. We need an athletic tall forward and two elite tough mids. Don't know how we get them but that's how we progress along with a new quality coaching group and new list mgt, recruitment dept.

 

[Billy_01]

What is our agenda in not playing ROB. ROB has never been touched up 2 weeks in a row like this.

If you want to prove a point draft a ruckman instead of a key defender for the millionth time in a row dickheads

Nicks has lost the plot.

Lame duck coach.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Wtf is our agenda in not playing ROB. ROB has never been touched up 2 weeks in a row like this bloody hell.

R.O.B got touched up by a 120kg 33 year old SANFL ruckman. He's no better.

Maybe nicks is exposing list management as the useless pricks they are. Both rucks are crap.

 

[BACCS]

Surely no one is defending Cook anymore? The bloke can’t get near a ball

 

[BACCS]

R.O.B got touched up by a 120kg 33 year old SANFL ruckman. He's no better.

I’m no ROB fan, but he is miles better than what we got from Strachan tonight.

I don't care if Straunie gets destroyed the rest of the year, makes no difference. ROB has checked out and it helps our draft pick anyway.

if you were at the game you would know that butts suffered most of those goals and he was also matched up with murray at times

 

[MsTopG]

Seeing Pedlar and Curtin in the two's is depressing. Something is wrong at this club.

 

[Crow_68]

Surely no one is defending Cook anymore? The bloke can’t get near a ball

His 6 touches were more value than Laird’s 34.

 

[hippyhippy]

No one is dropping Keane?

Wtf...

Curtin got dropped for 2 goals kicked on him ... Keane just had 8 goals kicked on him

 

[bluebob1]

I’m no ROB fan, but he is miles better than what we got from Strachan tonight.

yes it shows on the coach to drop a player who was fufilling his role and no way a problem for an inferior player who we proved this two year ago to make a statement rather than just dropping smith 4 weeks ago or laird last week

 

[bluebob1]

Curtin got dropped for 2 goals kicked on him ... Keane just had 8 goals kicked on him

most were on butts actually

 

[FR0GGY]

Surely no one is defending Cook anymore? The bloke can’t get near a ball

How many disposals did the other forwards get?
I mean keays got 15 @60% DE or you can have cooks 6 and a goal at 100%
Fog got 8 @88%
Murphy 9 @67%
Borlase 5 @60%

 

[BACCS]

His 6 touches were more value than Laird’s 34.

Yeah maybe, but Laird is also a problem, it’s not saying much

 

[BACCS]

most were on butts actually

No they weren’t. I was at the game, Keane was on him 95% of the game.

 

[MsTopG]

most were on butts actually

Butts is average. Keane has a lot more upside but does he want to stay? Is he tanking our pick for him on purpose?
