Preview Round 17, 2023 : Giants v Hawks, 4.35pm July 8th, Giants Stadium

[Hodginator]

I’m excited.

Also worried about the posts I’ll read here after DGB doesn’t kick a bag

 

[Roby]

Was hoping to see CJ back but DGB up forward will suffice.

If DGB flies for his marks and kicks even 1 goal I'll be a happy camper!

I'm expecting 6 goals..

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

If Meek's dropped does that mean we get to see Frostball's ultimate form... FROSTRUCK... Hey, if there's any position on the ground where you can excuse a lack of cleanliness, ruck's the one

 

[Hodgey 15]

So rapped to see Denver in.
Kick a bag Shaggy!

[kenneje]

Great ins. Very exciting!

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

the balance of this 22 is really good. With Sicily and CJ in it would be one of our better-looking teams. Should be an easy win

 

[naysayer]

Meek out the only real surprise. They must think Reeves is a better match up for Briggs. Finn also coming into the team ahead of Morrison also a bit of an eyebrow raiser, but I guess Harry will be the sub.

We'll see if Denver really heads down back.

 

[TFFM]

Crash some packs DGB!

 

[Simon Crawshay]

That's a very short forward line I have to say. Going to be a other tough day in the office for Lewis getting double teamed all day.

Morrison probably a little unlucky. Frost very lucky.

A little surprised Maginness is in, maybe they have a specific player they want tagged?

Personally I would have kept Meek for Reeves but it's toss of a coin between the two at the moment. Think Meek has the fitness to ruck all day though which Reeves will struggle with as a sole ruck.

 

[Roger Rogerson]

Assume Harry the sub.

 

[Noel Gallagher]

That's a very short forward line I have to say. Going to be a other tough day in the office for Lewis getting double teamed all day.

Morrison probably a little unlucky. Frost very lucky.

A little surprised Maginness is in, maybe they have a specific player they want tagged?

Personally I would have kept Meek for Reeves but it's toss of a coin between the two at the moment. Think Meek has the fitness to ruck all day though which Reeves will struggle with as a sole ruck.

Harry was serviceable last week but that is his absolute ceiling, good call on making him sub. Love the selections, Mitchell is looking for something different

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Pleased to see DGB brought in, and pleased that it seems they Morrison is being pushed out of the side. Better for us in the long term IMO.

Frost getting even one more game is laughable though.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Have a look at that Half Forward Line and consider Kossy still can't get a spot.

Looking more and more likely he is gone at years end I reckon.

 

[Baz_hawk]

Finn is the surprise for me. Still unsure how he gets a game ahead of Long who's been performing consistently at BH.

Otherwise, good changes.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Harry was serviceable last week but that is his absolute ceiling, good call on making him sub. Love the selections, Mitchell is looking for something different

In general I'm okay with the selections but we are rolling with only one marking forward.

Himmleburg and co will feast on the inside 50s if we kick them long and high (which is our typical approach)

 

[westhawk]

Love the ins, now hopefully McKenzie as the sub. DGB will provide good assistance to Lewis. Will crash some packs aswell.

 

[barbster]

Pleased to see DGB brought in, and pleased that it seems they Morrison is being pushed out of the side. Better for us in the long term IMO.

Frost getting even one more game is laughable though.

Hopefully Frost makes way for Sicily next week

 

[naysayer]

Pleased to see DGB brought in, and pleased that it seems they Morrison is being pushed out of the side. Better for us in the long term IMO.

Frost getting even one more game is laughable though.

They've backed Frosty in, but things will be very interesting next week if his form continues like mud while DBG, Blanck and Scrimshaw all have good games.

 

[2008wasoverDEW!]

Good call to drop a Ruckman. It hasn't worked. Both Meek and Reeves need to bring more to the table in order to play in the same side.

Great inclusions. Harry deserves the sub spot after a serviceable game last week.

I want to see DGB to play with freedom and attack every contest like a maniac! No hesitation. A competitive beast like DGB makes our 22 better.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

They've backed Frosty in, but things will be very interesting next week if his form continues like mud while DBG, Blanck and Scrimshaw all have good games.

He's been backed in long enough

 

[Dewnior]

Finn is the surprise for me. Still unsure how he gets a game ahead of Long who's been performing consistently at BH.

Otherwise, good changes.

I think the blokes that have been on the fringe for a few years are being given one last chance to turn it around.

 

[thehardway]

Finn is the surprise for me. Still unsure how he gets a game ahead of Long who's been performing consistently at BH.

Otherwise, good changes.

Finn out of contract at season's end. His place on the list in the balance. Needs to show something. Let's hope he does.
