Preview R23: Changes vs. Port Adelaide

[BRL121]

Serious question: how much do people think Tex out will hurt the chances of a win?

Significantly in a Showdown.

 

[Coopers]

There's two acceptable outcomes this week

1. A win
2. A loss so bad that Nicks gets sacked

Right, lead at the end of Q1 followed by an honorable loss coming up

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

you thinking its worth a 1 or 2 game suspension for one of the boys to make that happen

Murphy needs to take one for the team.

It hurts, but imo with Thilthorpe now back & Fogarty in form, it's a good opportunity to look at our future forward line... as Tex next year should be the icing on the cake... not the main go to guy

Sorry but you never ask serious questions.

And the answer is no.

 

[kirky]

Murphy needs to take one for the team.

Thought he was already doing that for the coaches.

 

[Gtowncrow]

Murphy needs to take one for the team.

Remember the street cred mad dog Mackay gained after his almighty collision against st Kilda. I can't remember the player who ended up injured but I remember it as an attack on the ball of bone shattering proportions.

Likewise, the respect the whole football world showed to Rory Sloane for the Dangerfield collision. Seriously out of his weight division but total commitment. Awesome stuff, both examples. Not sniper tactics. Just rock hard effort for the team.

Perhaps Murph can save his career by running through Alir.

 

[CrowBloke]

Murphy isn’t good at anything and his ongoing selection is beyond a joke. We’ve successfully binned McHenry, we’ve eliminated Laird from the midfield rotation, and we’ve relegated Smith and Jones to depth players. In a strange twist of events that nobody could possibly have seen coming, doing those things has made us a better side. Final boss: dump Murphy.

All of the above begged and pleaded for, many months in here. Yes; Murphy's gotta go.

Nah, take out Butters.

I like Aliir... just hope we don't keep kicking it to him.

As is Georgiadis's, being fed by that midfield compared to Tex being fed by ours over those shit years.

Georgiades was out all of last year and had played the first 2 years of his career before then. It’s a ridiculous comparison for a young player
He has had a great year coming off a knee and would be a genuine danger of playing

Please, OH PLEASE, let it be Murphy(it'd show leadership )...

 

[Pugsley]

I'd like to see Murphy go on a sniping rampage so outrageous he gets deregistered from the game

I think of Murphy when I see this gif

Stop with this stupid rubbish. You know we could lose by 100 points and Nicks will still be coach round 1 next year
The only saving grace is now we have most of our best players on the park we know it will be a close game or a win

[George Kramer]

Do we think Rankine and Murphy will play in the same team this week?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Do we think Rankine and Murphy will play in the same team this week?

Will - yes.
Should - no.

 

[cleanhands]

Do we think Rankine and Murphy will play in the same team this week?

Rankine will Murphy take up space

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Murphy should troll them and come out wearing one of these

 

[footy4ever]

Anyone banking on Georgiades being out will probably be disappointed. Not a definite out at all. Pity.

 

[Shifty Crow]

Tex - Out
Curtin - Forward

Edwards isn't ready yet.

Ryan is probably ready though.

 

[bigman]

Taylor not at training today. Injured... ill????

Tex and Max walking laps.

Nank and Curtin in B team

Curtin and Edwards looking more confident this week after their performances.

Gollant in A team.

 

[baldandbroke]

Edwards isn't ready yet.

Ryan is probably ready though.

Not Ready for What?

Fitness?
Physicality?
Complexity of the game?

Curious …

Sorry but you never ask serious questions.

That’s just not true.

For instance just today I asked Samcro24 and George Kramer :





And believe me: for us, this is very serious.

Serious question.

And the answer is no.
