Preview Rd 15 v GoDeez - Sat 22/6/24 - At the G -7.30pm - Danj

2 goals, 32 disposals, 7 marks is a VFL squib?

Did you watch any of the game? He is the best back-pedaller of anyone I’ve seen (maybe just with the exception of Sleevo) when he encounters an opposition player.

yea i watched the game, and i watched him get 2 goals, 7 marks and 32 disposals. To me, a squib is entirely ineffective, and I would not describe his game in that way.

l am still trying to work out why Stevens was picked when there were others who l felt would have been a better option. No doubt the club picked him for a purpose so l will accept their decision.

They’re trying to justify the 4 year contract.

One of their money spiinners. Surprised they are happy to match up with us. Have they had a usual opponent ?

We played them last year in the same game iirc. It might end up being a regular thing.

We’re playing on a big ground, and Stevens can run. And kick to advantage

No last year was Hawthorn and they don’t have a regular opponent.

Okay. It should be us given what Sonja went thru. We should bring it up in the media at every opportunity too.

And he also played against Collingwoods reserve reserve side.

Provided she's cool with it...

VFL form doesn't always transfer over to AFL either

Mind you this is a strategic in
MCG etc

cool so people can only come in from the VFL side when we play against the current 1st placed side, got it

 

[Shermanator]

Got a sneaky feeling big X will get a lesson from big Max tomorrow night.

Our boy has been colossal this year but is still a few years from the finished product and due for a quiet one as all developing players do, with the GoDees under serious pressure, their captain is ripe for putting in a huge captain's performance.

Our midfield better be switched on otherwise Oliver and Viney could get off the chain..

Lol. You’ll see it Sat night.

 

[Sillygit]

Lol. You’ll see it Sat night.

I'm not saying he is gauranteed to play well tomorrow, im saying he played well enough to get a call up. Because that's how it should work. Not "oh but the opposition weren't good", not "oh but he's played poorly before". There's plenty that could fall out of the side due to lack of form, and good form in the 2's should be who replaces them.

 

[franjon]

I agree with most of that including the time away, but he still didn't give a legitimate reason for Dylan Stephens being selected.

Yes, he does run, away from any contest.

I saw Max on a t.v.news report, looked a bit hobbled to me. Not running well at all.

Anthony Stevens is not happy with you, KK…

 

[Caracas]

All results are a possibility in this game:-

Demons win in a close one.
Demons win in a blowout.
North win in a close one.
North win in a blowout.

Nowhere for him to hide on the big ground. Stephens in for Sleevo is pretty much like for like

 

[Possession]

Fighting Roo Style...?

Definitely possible. Gawn has 7cm on him, his ruckwork is better, he has way more nuance and experience including how to impact in the 50's, and is a better contested mark.

He might be declining but he's still a champion player and elite ruck. Big challenge for Big X. Most interesting matchup on the ground now that Trac is out.

 

[Rollmop]

George’s first game at the MCG this Sat night. He’s going to love the extra space.

If Anthony had passed on (touch wood it doesn't happen), the comparison would have him turning in his grave.
