Preview Round 15 Changes - Port vs Brisbane @ Adelaide Oval

[Powertron]

Important we drop this so the pressure continues to build on f-wit number 1

 

[Doctor Feel]

Missed my chance to make a keninly foodbowl cwub changes thread.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Brizroy watching us play tonight.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

In: Rozee, Butters and Horne-Francis
Out: The guys who won a contest to play in their numbers in the Giants game

 

[Powertron]

Live ladders now has us finishing 9th and squiggle has us 8th, half a game ahead of Brisbane.

This is the classic 8pt game.

 

[davesnothere]

In - Visentini Rioli Scully and some small forwards that I haven't seen.

**** Mcentee off

Don't think Dante has played a game in 3 weeks.

I suspect Soldos knee is an issue and they made sure Sweet got a full run in the sanfl with a view to him playing against Brisbane if Soldo is cactus.

It looked like they were checking Soldo's knee on the sideline while Aliir was off.

Doc Fisher probably confirmed it didn't have concussion.

 

[Blinky Nyland]

If we play with the same level of passion against Brisbane we'll be killed. I think Rioli may give a lift if he gets up. Other than him we have the weakest small forward line-up in the competition. Anasta had a poor game and so he's not in contention. Jones for all his faults at least gives an effort and should come in for Williams, who is way out of form and was unfortunately really poor. Houston and Zerk-Thatcher are the only defenders who can hold their heads up but Farrell and Aliir tried and had some good moments.

Out: Dinky slow kicks that get cut off, Williams, Evans, Soldo and McEntee
In: Sharp passing, Jones, Rioli, Lorenz and Sweet

 

[Schulzenfest]

Out: McEntee, Evans
In: Inanimate carbon rod x2

 

[Chachi]

Live ladders now has us finishing 9th and squiggle has us 8th, half a game ahead of Brisbane.

This is the classic 8pt game.

The best thing that could happen to our club is missing the 8 so long as that equates to Hinkley being sacked sometime this year.

 

[240volt]

Out: McEntee, Evans
In: Inanimate carbon rod x2

Carbon rods offer extremely high strength and stiffness.

 

[Fizzler]

I don't know if there's much we can do to be a chance. At risk of sounding like Ken, I don't think we'd be better off with some of the players who didn't play. Nearly everyone had an off night and it's clear there's an issue beyond selection (which has been clear since, what, 2018 at the latest?) so does it even matter who they bring in and out? Brisbane's resurgence will start with this match and we're only winning maybe 5 or 6 matches for the rest of the year. Season is gone so who cares?

 

[bomberclifford]

Out: piss
In: not piss

Yep. We won’t make the eight.

. What more can you ask for

 

[all seeing eye]

Apart from patches we have been listless all year. Telling game this one, 8 pts game.

 

[Windy Cindy]

Live ladders now has us finishing 9th and squiggle has us 8th, half a game ahead of Brisbane.

This is the classic 8pt game.

Which we lose every time

 

[Schulzenfest]

Carbon rods offer extremely high strength and stiffness.

McEntee and Evans getting dropped would offer me extremely high stiffness.

 

[Buget]

Live ladders now has us finishing 9th and squiggle has us 8th, half a game ahead of Brisbane.

This is the classic 8pt game.

Does the squiggle tell you how many goalless quarters we have to look forward to?

I’m going with 2 next week.

 

[Capital Power]

Live ladders now has us finishing 9th and squiggle has us 8th, half a game ahead of Brisbane.

This is the classic 8pt game.

And we all know how well we go when there's any expectation ...

The converse of that is that we are 37-0 in daytime games at AO against bottom 10 teams who aren't the Crows.

 

[Adz2332]

Out
Evans McEntee
In
Rioli Finlayson ( play wing)

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I'd pick Jones just to run through whoever is tagging Butters. No one else would do it.

 

[Waspy79]

Sutcliffe in to terrorise Neale boom tish

 

[PJ Power]

Harris Andrews gets to play his 200th against Todd Marshall. What more can you ask for

The ultimate gift card. Spend whatever you want in our store Mr Andrews. Give the intercept marking record a shake while you visit us.

 

[PJ Power]

I'd pick Jones just to run through whoever is tagging Butters. No one else would do it.

It’s staggering that neither Butters nor Carr nor Butters teammates have been able to make any positive adjustments since the tagging started in the game against Hawthorn. Butters basically seems to have disappeared this last month. Nowhere near the footy. On the bench for very long periods. Completely unsighted and unthreatening up forward. Are we trying to shake the tag or find ways to get him involved or just conceding that it’s a bit too hard for him right now?
