Preview Round 14 Early Thoughts - Sydney Swans vs. Carlton

[SOPH_CROSS]

Poor form this afternoon by the boys

INS & OUTS

Grundy was hopeless but wont be dropped due to the fact we have NO defence

Goodes who knows how serious the injury is

 

[RUNVS]

The Port game isn't even over FFS.

Its my favourite thing to piss you off :]

 

[BarneyBent]

Armstrong needs to go out. I'm usually a supporter of his but he was not great.

 

[Membling]

Hope we turn up next week. This lose undoes most of the good work we did over the past month.

Armstrong is out though. Was a weak effort.

 

[SM]

OUT: Armstrong and White
IN: (Hopefully) Everitt, Jetta

 

[Danair]

OUT: Armstrong (hopefully he does'nt have another year on his contract)
IN: Brown

 

[grimlock]

Do we have any players left? If Goodes goes out and Reid, Jetta and Everitt don't return what side will run out against the Blues?

Well hopefully Reid and Jetta will be ready to go. I doubt Everitt will be ready yet.

 

[Bloody]

Armstrong out for good, in whoever.
Dude is seriously a deer in the headlights whenever ball within 5 metres of him.

Only positive was Tippett who looked very good early, struggled to run out game but was to be expected.

Goodes potential injury only pisses me off more after seeing our shocking work rate today

 

[grimlock]

Well hopefully Reid and Jetta will be ready to go. I doubt Everitt will be ready yet.

Based on what, our club's estimates of how long they will be out for? Do I need to remind you Rhyce Shaw 2 weeks ab strain.

I thought that even a minor achilles injury is at least a few weeks on the sidelines?

I was talking about your optimistic assessments of Jetta and Reid.

 

[Superstar swan]

Early thoughts, we need to improve or we will get rolled next week

 

[RUNVS]

I was talking about your optimistic assessments of Jetta and Reid.

I thought they were training again? If they are not I really do not know what we will do. Goodes is almost certain to miss at least one week so someone needs to come in for him but if you look at our emergencies today there was not a lot of experience there.

Thought Reid trained but Jetta sat it out?

INS & OUTS

Goodes who knows how serious the injury is

Drop him for a peg-legged drunken sailor. Even that wooden guy from Family Guy would have shown more heart and hand-eye co-ordination.

It's possible we'll still be without Reid & Jetta, so we're stuck with what we have. Was Everitt injured or something? He would have been a far superior option to Armstrong who just doesn't look good enough for AFL.

Ins: Everitt, Reid
Outs: Armstrong, Goodes

 

[lock33]

Rampe looked confident and was quite reliable today.

 

[M F JONES]

Early thought:- Win

 

[Punts]

Geez I hope we win this 1

 

[Lashie]

Armstrong needs to go, but I hate him with a passion so may be a tad biased. Would like Everitt back too, why was he even dropped anyway? Reid will come in for Goodes if fit.

Huge game now, can't afford to let it slip.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Everitt was not dropped he has Achilles soreness.

 

[Jack2Jack]

Hopefully In: Jetta, Reid and Everitt...at least 2 of them ..please!!!

Out : Armstrong (for the love of god, if Morton is made to spend nearly a year learning to defend....surely a guy who actually plays in our defence has to do the same, double standards much) Lamb (purely because he was sub).

Hopefully Carlton come out as poorly as we did, after the bye (hate that thing, had a bad feeling it would kill our momentum) and hopefully we get a response similar to that of the Collingwood game from after the Freo loss/draw. If not then maybe all this "panic stations" stuff might be justified.

Everitt is injured everyone knows that and did Armstrong really perform below than expected? Who else have we got I didn't think he was that bad.

 

[Punts]

Horse doesn't seem to think Jetta and Reid will be right for Friday night
