Game Day Rd 15 Roos vs Cats Game Day Thread-3Q time-Waite a coast 2 coast goal!!

[The Nostradamus]

Don't mind boomer sub, could do with a freshen up and will still impact the game

 

[Hunters Host #3]

Nahas out.

Turner in

Boomer sub.

Nahas should have been one of the casualties at the selection table, so I like that.

Turner has been in good form. Both he and Garner should be hitting the contest and man hard!

 

[Joshen]

Would rather have Boomer reached 400 without being the sub...

 

[thedog]

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good free online stream of the game?

 

[kangaspurs]

At least Garner is not the sub, and I'm sure this is just to freshen Boomer up a bit without having him miss a game.

 

[KangaFan35]

Big game for Turner, without Thomas and Nahas he's got to be at his best, at least until Boomer comes on.

 

[Roo Beauty]

Why is Boomer sub?? He must have a niggle, he's too important to only play a quarter. Good to see Kayne back.

Channel 7?

Mixed emotions re: Boomer. If its a freshen up, fine. If he is happy with it, fine.

But just a tad worried because his run has been so important to a team that lacks pace so much.

Positive is Garner is going to get a full run at it, which i am very, very, very excited about.

WHY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I have a feeling that forward pressure and structure has been a key concern on the rebound for us.

Thomas hasn't been at his best in that department and Nahas has been fine, but lacks a lot offensively with ball in hand and contributes to us turning the ball over.

I'm guessing that the school of thought is with Garner and Turner, if they can bring the heat early on for as long as possible, we'll hopefully jump them and Boomer should provide some real bite late on in the game.

It's risky, but again, it's a good test for others to fill the whole that Boomer leaves.

Bon is trying to change his image..

On the day he was born
The players all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
Then Boomer spoke up
Said "leave this one alone"
He could tell right away
That I was Brad to the bone

Brad to the bone
Brad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Brad
B-B-B-B-Brad
B-B-B-B-Brad
Brad to the bone

Why?

 

[shinboner spiggs]

I like it. Something bold.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Cheer hard ladies and gents.

North by 99.

 

[Flawed Genius]

So from last week we have ended up with 5 changes and made our longest-serving player the sub.

OUT: Hansen (injury, fair enough), Daw (stiff, harsh), Dumont (ugh, stiff), Thomas (dropped for poor performance, fair enough) and now Nahas (injury, but OK)

IN: Bastinac (ripping VFL form), Garner (deserves a chance), Brown (ripping VFL form), Mullett (has probably earnt his spot back) and now Turner (nice like-for-like for Nahas.

It's a start.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Garner getting a full game - Good.

Boomer as sub - will either be a master stroke or leave us swearing our heads off at the end of the game

Just realized.... Garner AND KT in... someone going to be killed tonight.

 

[Marstermind]

Well we wanted something different and we got it. Not what I would have done or thought would be done...but I like it. It's ballsy. I wanted all week for this club to show balls with selection . Hope it translates onto the field.

 

[Benno_900]

Just realized.... Garner AND KT in... someone going to be killed tonight.

It's not secret that our biggest weakness is forward 50 pressure.

Could turn our season.

 

[John Dorian]

Liking that this basically means 5 kids have a shot this weekend. Got to persist through the rest of the season though

 

[Hearts to hearts]

I like it. Something bold.

Me too. Loudest way possible to make the young leaders feel it's all up to them, without actually dropping a guy who is still damaging enough to deserve a spot. And as someone said in te other thread, Booner can fill a lot of spots if needed when he comes on, and his fresh legs could be critical.

Just realized.... Garner AND KT in... someone going to be killed tonight.

Add the realised potential of Harper when he was averaging 4+ tackles a game and that's a dangerous trio.

 

[Engimal]

We beat Geelong without Boomer in a final last year, and we'll do it again.

 

[Engimal]

Why?

Feels more genuine.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Add the realised potential of Harper when he was averaging 4+ tackles a game and that's a dangerous trio.

Hope he had a good one today.
