Preview Round 1 v Carlton MCG Thursday March 14 7.30pm

[_RT_]

Team closer to what Yze sees as his best 23 with the 4 inclusions.

Hopefully a few days of reviewing what went wrong against the Suns and these inclusions will see a much better & consistent performance/execution of the game plan.

It will be interesting to see just how things change tomorrow. If we can produce more of what we did in the 3rd quarter than the first half it should be a much better game to watch at the very least as we'll be in the contest.

I'm still not sure we come out on top as both Nankervis and Lynch are coming into the game rusty from a lack of preseason game time, so we're going to need to see some lesser lights step up and carry the load if we do want to come away with the 4 points.

Sub has to be from the bench doesn’t it?

Don’t believe so

 

[Rubber Hips]

Looks like he's about to make Seth Campbell the sub off the back of 2 goals and a good game.

That wouldn't be a good move. Generally the last name player is the sub

That would suck if Cambo was sub…he busted his balls all night and was in our better players

Need to reward those that perform

Probably just managing his time

I think it be a straight wing positional swap with Ross for Pickett

 

[Sol23]

Weak changes. Hard call needed to be made and weren’t.
Steely green looked so good in that first practice match- why is he not playing?
There are kids in the twos ready to go!

 

[tiger_tough]

Pickett has to be sub, surely.

Agree ..shite decision if it happens. Then again, as pointed out by a previous poster, Dow would be a poor choice as the sub. The opposite of an impact player. Likely Mansell as he is the one coming in and can be an impact - also can play forward or back.

Because Seth Campbell is? Green didn't do much in the recent vfl practice match either.

Not sold on Young yet now that we have Gibcus there. That makes it an inexperienced tall BL with two struggling backmen in Broad and Grimes. Miller needs to play FB beside Gibcus as he's tougher, cleaner faster and better equipped than Young in taking a monster forward. Miller will eventually break into the side with Brown, Trezise, Sonsie and KMAC2. It's only when the MC finally realize the old campaigners are taking us nowhere.

"Not sold on Young yet now that we have Gibcus there." Sorry TI - you missed my sarcasm (it was linked to 'some posters believe'). Don't rate Young at all - actually scared for him with what may eventuate for him tomorrow night.

 

[Tiger V]

interesting, going back to 3 smalls up forward.

 

[tiger_tough]

Mansells gonna kick a bag

 

[HumanMeatball]

You can’t have a go at yze for wanting to at least see what his best team looks like. If we are still shit by round 10 with the same types selected then the melts would make sense

Sub has to be from the bench doesn’t it?

Teams can announce 23 man teams with the sub confirmed 60 minutes before the bounce. Last week all subs were named on the bench in the selected sides. Doesn't mean that you have to choose from the 5 bench players.

Sorry I missed the sarcasm and thanks for clarifying it.

Mansells gonna kick a bag

Did he turn into Charlie Cameron all of a sudden?

 

[juss]

He’s learnt absolutely nothing. He’s kicked out two new recruits who were awful and two kids where one in Ryan should never have played. He’s made no hard calls on the old premiership heroes in Prestia, Kmac and Grimes particularly. Gutless selection and how Brown is not in our side is disturbing. He should have 15 games under hIs belt by now . The problem with Yze atm is he thinks he has a final 8 side.

I agree on the youth thing but I'll give him more than round 1.

If Grimes (ans others) is a liability again and he doesn't make the call then I'll have concerns, but he's backing them in to bounce back and they've earnt that at least.

Fisher is the one to watch. No where near as bad as OGorman or Deboy but still a dickhead when it comes to 'umpiring' Richmond games.

On SM-A426B using BigFooty.com mobile app

exactly for a bloke who has played the game at the highest level, he makes some absolute Howlers
