Preview R18: Changes vs. St. Kilda

[ams4crows]

For our future we don't really want to win this game but playing 4 tall forwards on a wet night is taking tanking a bit too far

 

[Danger in Texas]

Holy unbalanced

At least Ned’s still not in

 

[BACCS]

Wow, we didn’t actually bring McHenry in! His papers are clearly stamped.

Don’t mind stretching the Saints defense and seeing RT and Berg together.

If Murphy is sub and Taylor gets a full game then everything is coming up Milhouse!

as well as McHenry?

 

[FR0GGY]

Nicks has lost the plot selecting four tall forwards

Nah not for a day game in September.

 

[BACCS]

For our future we don't really want to win this game but playing 4 tall forwards on a wet night is taking tanking a bit too far

They were forecasting monsoon type weather today and the rain all came last night in the AM. Forecast for Saturday is not nearly as bad, doubt this ends up a wet weather game.

 

[spenze]

Rob will be a late out with Himmler carrying the ruck

 

[BACCS]

So a two year deal incoming then?

I think it’s fairly clear that he’s done end of season at this club. If he isn’t getting a game this week, he isn’t getting one again.

 

[BrissyCrow]

AT least I am pleased to see our younger players are still in the team, Dowling, Cook, Zac T and now 007 gets his first game. When you add in Soligo, Rachele Nankervis (pity that Pedler is injured) thats a significant number of youngsters. We now need to get Curtin into the ones. I look at Dowling and whilst I am pleased we are sticking with him I dont really understand why we haven't done the same with Curtin.

TT ain’t ready. Desperate measures by a desperate coach.

named on St Kilda's emergency list just to troll us

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Thilthorpe sub please. Just get him through unscathed.

Full games for Taylor and Bond.

Otherwise idgaf

 

[dylan123]

Rob will be a late out with Himmler carrying the ruck

Word or hope?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

TT ain’t ready. Desperate measures by a desperate coach.

If he's not ready and we're planning for him to come on just for the last quarter or so, there'll be an injury inside the first 10 seconds

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Tom Campbell named on St Kilda's emergency list just to troll us

That name needs a trigger warning.

 

[BACCS]

TT ain’t ready. Desperate measures by a desperate coach.

He’s the future of this club, he can get through the rust at AFL level.

 

[BACCS]

Rob will be a late out with Himmler carrying the ruck

Inside word or just hoping?

 

[Stripple]

Yeah feel like TT sub will be the call. With a tactical sub at half time...

Fingers crossed no injuries.

Definitely better ins than expected - but yeah that FWD line will be pretty top heavy if TT starts.

 

[CrowBloke]

TT in but Berg stays is an odd choice. Those two plus Tex and Fog is way too top heavy for any game let alone for what's forecasted to be a cold, wet night.

+

Or maybe Thilthorpe starts as sub and replaces berg at in second half

4 talls? On a predicted-wet or at best slippery night?
Even further evidence, not that we needed it, that Nicks is clueless.
Nicks has probably given EH instructions to stay down and act as a step-ladder for Murphy, who might actually take a hanger one day.
Oh, wait; wet/slippery, uhhh, I dunno, I'm totally by Nicks' forwards' selection.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Still no McHenry after he was BOG in the SANFL and Rankine is out is notable. They've definitely put a line through him for anything other than pure injury cover.

Not even listed in the emergencies. I thought for sure he'd be brought in this week, but that's clear-cut evidence that his papers are stamped.

 

[Crowstar]

Happy with TT and Bond but whilst Murphy is in the team we can eat a fat one.

 

[Mutineer]

So who goes to Henry and who goes to Higgins?

 

[spenze]

Word or hope?

Word


Has Gingervitus

 

[1970crow]

Nicks has lost the plot selecting four tall forwards

It’s ok, Murphy can be in 4 places at once ready to execute elite forward 50 pressure.
