Well...Jacobs & Wood coming in would be a pretty big change albeit uncertain atm.

I like how Scott admits we have an issue with our small forwards then does nothing

Cupboard bare

 

[Clarke is King]

I’m finished with looking at these threads. I always wind up disappointed.

 

[The Nostradamus]

So who does Macmillan let kick a bag on him this week?
Stephenson? WHE? Josh Thomas? God forbid JDG?

Same can be said for Morgan

Don’t you get sick of saying the same thing everyday?

 

[Billy Not Really]

There is absolutely no way we can win this without Jacobs coming in and shutting down Sidebottom.

 

[Nate1993]

I can't wait to get to Thursday only to see that we have an unchanged lineup.

Well there you go...

 

[The Nostradamus]

Nope
I do get sick of watching certain spuds play in our team though

-Turner is not hitting the scoreboard
-McDonald is a liability in defence
-Marley seems restricted by his back
-Hrovat offers nothing
-Clarke butchers the ball
-Simpkin out of form
-Morgan LDU and Ahern have played barely 9 games between them and TOG % needs to be monitored

The issue is Brown, Ziebell, Jed, Dumont, Atley, Daw, Tarrant, MacMilan, Thompson, Higgins, Cunnington and Goldstein are in near career best form.
And we ain’t getting it done.
Deeply concerning that our depth and bottom 8 are our underbelly.
The good sides see out this period with confident wins but we’re falling behind the pack.
Not confident considering our record when Waite and Jacobs don’t play.

Looking forward to Hrovat’s pressure acts

North Melbourne will go into Saturday's clash against Collingwood with an unchanged lineup.

The Roos' match committee has opted to stick with the 22 that fought out at blockbuster clash against Sydney last weekend.

Running defender Alex Morgan will get another after a strong showing on debut, while youngster Luke Davies-Uniacke is also in the side after arguably his best game in the royal blue and white.

Nick Larkey, Ben McKay, Will Walker and Tom Murphy will be the emergencies.

At least he doesn't turn the ball over

30% chance without W8 and Jacobs

 

[Hojuman]

Late changes.

Can't really turn it over when he hasn't got it

 

[The Nostradamus]

Can't really turn it over when he hasn't got it

True but less frustrating than a Macmillan or Morgan for mine

I'd rather they didn't get it either

 

[Gasometer]

Lol

12 pages of waste of time

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Late changes.

Turner quite possibly.

 

[Hootini]

every week i dream of what might be, and nothing. I can't believe not ONE of them could use a stint, even a god damned week, in the twos to think about what they did and how to earn a spot.
