Preview R19: Changes vs. Essendon

[Billy_01]

Curtin emergency. If he’s that close why not just play him.

 

[jenny61_99]

He was safe as soon as he was extended, results never mattered. But there's no way that he misses if he's not marginal in terms of his body. He played 11 games without being managed and is only 3 games back after a month off with injury. There's little doubt he's not quite right again.

Also off the back of two six day breaks. Absolutely makes sense to rest him. Now.

 

[Crow till I die]

So murphy still in and Curtin kicks his heels again..sounds fu**ed up fair

 

[FR0GGY]

So sub can only come from the bench?

 

[1990crow]

Smith and Murphy - absolute disgrace these two keep getting picked.

 

[GreyCrow]

Good to see RT and Fog get clear air. Open her up boys and get outta their way

 

[texanmike]

Surely idiotic comments from Nicks not knowing we are playing under a roof this weekend makes his sacking a few weeks sooner?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

So sub can only come from the bench?

Doesn’t have to... but nearly always does.

Either they manage Hinge as sub, or sadly make Bond sub after a decent debut. Madness if the case ahead of Smith.

Had a great opportunity to bring in Curtin for Murphy, but sadly this selection committee are clueless about prioritising for next year.

2 big fails for me.

Agree with managing Tex though.

 

[cleanhands]

So Smith stunk and is named so can’t be sub, will be Cook

Heard reports of Rachelle with a slight knee issue, would they use him as a sub?

Wouldn’t have thought we’d ever make an injured player sub.

 

[cleanhands]

I reckon he’s pulling your chain deliberately.

Maybe Rash will be sub with his knee

If his knee is a problem, rest him & play Curtin.

I absolutely hate it, but if it means we get pick 4 this year and a new coach into next year - so be it.

 

[BACCS]

Have a feeling the sub will be Rachele given he's battling a knee niggle; last listed on the bench has a very high strike rate of being the sub.

 

[Ham]

How would we actually line up this squad? - for balance seems like we might either run bond or max in the mid- or Curtin is a cheeky late in for Smith’s eardrum

Curtin a late in for Smith would be such a very AFC way to do it...

Let the incumbent 'Senior' player look like he's been selected but then pull him last minute due to a mystery injury cloud to save face and not suffer any ignominy of being 'dropped'.

[texanmike]

need confirmation of who was on the plane, was curtin aboard? anyone working at adelaide airport?

 

[rocket18]

Murphy, by contrast, has a dozen spots he could fit into. Saying that Himmelberg doesn't deserve to get dropped because Murphy hasn't been misses that point.

1. Quality Control Inspector at Arnotts.
2. Crows Shop attendant.
3. Flipping burgers at Maccas.
4. Chimney Sweep.
5. Water Boy.
6.

Welcome

 

[crows dude]

Would we have heard already if there was a Ryan or Curtin in the travelling group?

All emergencies would travel. Fly back in the morning

At this point I don't care how they get Curtin in.......
Meanwhile Murphy named, starting, not even off the bench
