Preview R18: Changes vs. St. Kilda

[PeterSalt]

Think 3-4 weeks.

another 2 weeks apparently

 

[MrBarry]

Absolute insanity that they won't see this as a chance to bring Curtin in.

 

[1990crow]

Hinge "injured" so Nicksys mate Brodie gets a game.

 

[George Kramer]

Brodie Jones or Brodie McHenry?

 

[1990crow]

Brodie Jones or Brodie McHenry?

Maybe we will have 25 in the team this week.
Can't leave any of the boys out.

Participation ribbons for everyone!

 

[jackster83]

The hilarious thing is Jones and McHenry make us worse than other ins, so he's ****ing himself over the dud.

It's good news (for our draft pick). Wonder if Dawson will also be a late out.

Imagine if we do something stupid like trade it out for a defender

 

[BRL121]

Imagine if we do something stupid like trade it out for a defender

Well, that's exactly what we were said to be doing earlier in the year, maybe with another first. Everything was "on the table".

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Anyone know how long Hamill is expected to be out?

I suspect just enough time for the selectors to forget that he was playing well

The old second half of the year purple patch, career making form suddenly means squat in selectors mind come round 1 trick?

Yep

And the preseason yoyo test winner walks into the line up

 

[jackster83]

Yep

Or Milera walks straight back in off little to no pre-season. Again.

 

[1970crow]

Stay home, do a Weber of your faves.
It'll cost you one-fifth as much as at the Beer'n'BBQ.

There's more to life than the money.

 

[GameofSloanes]

Hinge "injured" so Nicksys mate Brodie gets a game.

Brodie isn't getting dropped again this year. Even without injuries
With hinge and rankine out, the smart move would be to promote Taylor to the 22, and add Ryan. I'd make murphy sub or drop him for Curtin even as well.
But there's no chance of that. Jones and McHenry will be the ins, Taylor sub.

 

[GameofSloanes]

Or Milera walks straight back in off little to no pre-season. Again.

And takes 10 rounds to find form. Again.

 

[George Kramer]

Well, that's exactly what we were said to be doing earlier in the year, maybe with another first. Everything was "on the table".

And there is evidence that our club has no ****ing idea.

We obviously planned on a good year, the fact it’s a fail, did they misread the coach? The list? Or did they plan on no injuries given they’ve gone down that excuse.

Clearly they overestimated the coach and li which brings into question their judgement and besides their pleas why should we trust them?

 

[1970crow]

Jones back to defence for Hinge
Ned in for Rankine
Taylor out to get a full game under the belt
Not sure the replacement sub

 

[Crow_68]

Club, media have been pumping Ned’s tyres up this week, named best in the SANFL - he’s a definite in.
This is no different to Smith the week before he came in.
Murphy also getting a lot of media attention this past few days, he’s staying in.
But the club doesn’t listen to outside noise…..

 

[texanmike]

I reckon we lose to St Kilda on Saturday and the blow torch will really turn up on Nicks next week.

 

[Jarman3]

And takes 10 rounds to find form. Again.

The gets injured in the 11th.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

It's good news (for our draft pick). Wonder if Dawson will also be a late out.

He's clearly not fit.

Really we should rest him, otherwise don't play him in the midfield... perhaps up forward
.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Would like to see something like this...

Ins: Ryan, Curtin, Jones (sub)
Outs: Hinge (inj), Rankine (susp), Murphy (enough already)

B: Michaelanny, Butts, Keane
HB: Ryan, Murray, Nankervis
C: Dowling, Soligo, Curtin
HF: Taylor, Fogarty, Keays
F: Himmelberg, Walker, Dawson
R: O’Brien, Laird, Rachele
I: Smith, Berry, Sholl, Cook
Sub: Jones

More likely to be...
Ins: Jones, McHenry
Outs: Hinge, Rankine

 

[Crow_68]

I reckon we lose to St Kilda on Saturday and the blow torch will really turn up on Nicks next week.

Nah, club will blame it on injuries/suspension - they will always find an out to fit their agenda.

Waiting for Kane McGoodwin to throw out the invitations

Waiting for Kane McGoodwin to throw out the invitations

I enjoy a nice red; would be willing to supply steak to be Webered.
I got this as a reply to my suggestion:

There's more to life than the money.

I was being lighthearted but couldn't find a 'lighthearted' emoji. Maybe this ==> ?
I'd almost always prefer to do a Weber than go out, because:
--- I give good Weber, and
--- retail BBQ/beer prices generally are more'n I want to pay, or can afford, eg I used to get a large double-cut ham salad roll from the Orange Spot bakery for about $4.50. Now they do small crusty white rolls about a half the size of a hot dog bun, single cut, $9.80 thanks-very-much .
Holy Rampant Inflation, Batman! <<ramble rant rave >>
