Preview Round 11, 2022: Gold Coast v Hawthorn, 7:40pm 28th May, TIO stadium

[Roger Rogerson]

My one thought, and could be wrong about this, is that it will be awefully dewy being an NT game at night.

It might minimise our losses in the ruck Vs Witts, if we focus on sharking the taps.

I hope we don't have as many blokes slipping over as we did in Tassie. Newcombe the main culprit. Bring the screw ins.

Unfortunately I think that screw ins are banned these days

33 degrees tipped for Saturday in D Town.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Sam said on 360 Reeves is a chance this week, but probably more unlikely than likely.

 

[threesixpio]

Have we had a game this year with both Lynch and Reeves ? Can’t remember

Round 1 for 35 minutes

Round 1 for 35 minutes

It's going to be great when they're both available, hopefully against the Pies.

Can't see Lynch playing against Collingwood. Took him awhile to get over the last concussion.

How far is McEvoy away?

That's why I said hopefully, he had some other issues on top of the concussion. McEvoy is likely over a month away, maybe months.

Wouldn't surprise me if he's done for the year. Too much at stake for him this late in his career.

Yeah he failed the protocols the 1st week then got Covid which delayed it another week and got a bee sting which meant he missed 4 weeks. Failing the protocols in that first week is why I'm doubting he will be back for the Pies

Looked up last weeks medical report and said 8 weeks still. I knew they said 2nd half of the year initially was hoping that was something like Round 14

 

[Mrzohs]

Sam said on 360 Reeves is a chance this week, but probably more unlikely than likely.

Gee we need him, Witts is close to the best ruck in the comp this year.

We lose to much with Nash in the ruck in the middle, Kosi could get seriously hurt over 4 quarters.

 

[WWSD]

What about Frost in the ruck?

 

[PenAndPaper]

What about Frost in the ruck?

I actually said this on the weekend when he lined up forward. He has a solid athleticism, a decent size, competes and long arms. If we don't need him down back why not give him a crack in there.

 

[Mrzohs]

What about Frost in the ruck?

I Like that idea left field. Will at least complete with Witts 1 on 1 around the ground as well.

 

[cogs2hawks]

Finn for Shiels? Thought Finn was starting to pick up some nice form and didn’t think Shiels offered much yesterday. Would also rather get more games into Finn for his confidence

Shiels tagged Neale after HT and did a superb job. Will stay in, till probably Ward returns.

 

[Changa10]

Was Day really injured? Watched replay tonight and he seemed to moving fine with a minute or so to go in the third, than subbed at 3qt. Hopefully more a management thing!

Effort was great yesterday, so only forced changes for mine. Scrimmers comes in if fit, and I‘d rather Callow to ruck instead of Nash.

So, in Callow and Out Lynch.

MacDonald for Day if he is injured.

Sam really valued shiels ability to play the role for the team and give structure to the other mids, wouldn’t be surprised if he stayed in

 

[RX Hawk]

IN: Scrimshaw, Callow, MacDonald

OUT: Lynch, Day, Howe (omitted)


B: Hardwick, Frost, Jiath

HB: Scrimshaw, Grainger-Barras, Sicily

C: Morrison, Mitchell, Bramble

HF: Wingard, Koschitzke, Butler

F: Breust, Lewis, Moore

R: Callow, O’Meara, Newcombe

INT: Impey, Nash, Shiels, MacDonald, Long (Sub)

For a change can we swap Impey with Long for this match?

He should stay for sure. I also thought Howe was quite good at HB in the second half.

Shiels has 2 games to get to 250. At home against Collingwood for his milestone sounds perfect. I think he stays in.
