Preview Round 19 - Essendon VS Adelaide, Marvel, Friday 19/7/24, 7:40pm AEST

[MiguelM]

Rumour was started by some donkey on Twitter. Pretty sure it’s untrue

Asif we need any more calf awareness!

 

[Keystone agony]

I'd play an extra small if we drop Wright. Back in Langford, Stringer and Caddy to bring the ball to ground.

Harry Jones fwd aswell if we dont go 2 rucks

As solid as hes been on the wing

I'd try Cox in the square again. Kicked 3 against the Suns.

All for nothing though if we refuse to play Martin forward.

Safety bet on this one, my friends

If the rumours of Wright out are true I hope we don't bring Goldy in and use Cox as the backup ruck/FF.

That was from the Wing from memory

wish i could go but i'm sure i'll be asleep by the start of the 4th quarter.

i'm interested to see if what changes brad'll make. hopefully bringing in some youth will revitalise us.

also glad we're under the roof, weather's supposed to be shit on friday (and has been putrid for the week so far tbh)

Yep. Martin should be the wing pushing forward with Jones being the wing who pushed back (marking power) Duursma is the swing wing.

Preview is up.. sorry, it's a little salty.

id argue it's not salty enough

 

[boncer34]

Feels like Wright was starting to hit form in the 3 weeks prior and then hit a game not suited to him at all.

Can't see him being dropped.

 

[DapperDon]

If we drop Wright only to bring Goldy in that really doesn't improve things.

Think i'd rather keep Wright, at least when he gets the ball he's likely to kick a goal

I will say that I thought with Goldy rucking and Draper forward it looked more chaotic and thus felt like we applied alot more pressure. We also had Davey zipping around then as well though.

Wright has a good record at Marvel too.

Horses for courses!

I give us 0% chance,
Hope this helps.

dees fans said similar last week

Personally I think our best FWD line is

Ruck Goldy
FF draper
chF Wright
3rd Langford
4th Perkins
Small Greah
Small geulfi
7th pressure player

Could also swap out perk for another pressure small.

Genuine speed is what we lack.

A tackling Davey or two is what we need!!

i'd be begging them to give roberts a go in place of knackers, idc about his weaknesses just give him a go

Unimaginative and shithouse.

A Brad Scott special.

Agreed, can see a 4/5 haul in him this week.
