Game Day Round 24 vs. Melbourne, MCG, 7:40pm Friday 23/08

[domus]

thank god McStay is being put in cotton wool.

He did his knee at training when barely jogging.

 

[dalkin47]

So with McStay out we need to bring in another tall, possibly Kreuger. Richards and Allan to replace Bytel and Parker, I hope with Long as the sub again, but who knows what the selectors will come up with.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

Just tell Krueger to kick 10. He's a good listener, he'll do what he's told.

Richards to kick 5 in a support role.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Why just post things like this?

 

[LarryKinn]

Out-Frampton,McStay,Lipinski and Bytel
In - Dean,Reef,Allen and Richards

Out-Frampton,McStay,Lipinski and Bytel
In - Dean,Reef,Allen and Richards

The old no key forwards policy - hate it

 

[Horaceg]

Seeing Richard’s performance will be interesting. I hope he does well, but the reaction on his performance will be entertaining.

Plays bad to average and people won’t be fussed about him potentially leaving

Plays well and everybody will say give him the 4 years.

No in-betwee I do hope he stays though

I would match it regardless, his clean hands, hits the ball at pace, goal kicker.

 

[HFF]

It only took for the season to be over to realise Bytel and Long aren’t gonna take us anywhere at all.

[anshell]

That should keep the play the kids brigade happy.But how on earth does Lipinski keep getting a game when he’s been doing next to nothing?Just a complete mystery to me.

 

[MoreMoore]

In a game when we need to score 200+ we are going in with no key forward?

 

[Kes1984]

We’re playing the kids

 

[Jen2310]

Good to see them rewarding Ryan by moving to the emg list

 

[parano1a]

In a game when we need to score 200+

Fly is realistic, that's not going to happen.

 

[JuniorB]

I like the ins.
Dean was great last week, and Melbourne don't have big monster forwards.
I suspect the plan was always to get a full VFL game into Richards, then pick him this week.
I just hope he's not the sub.
Ed to start in the middle for me.
Fin couldn't do much more than he did last week - it's about translating it to AFL level.
Who will be sub?

 

[CPH12]

Like the changes but going to be extremely pissed off if any of the 'ins' are names as sub. Give it to WHE, sidey or pendles for **** sake .

It’s unbelievable

He’s the new jaryd Blair

Undroppable

The sub has to be one of the five players named on the interchange.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

The sub comes from the interchange, so yeah it will be a kid, I doubt Noble would be named the sub out of that list.

Parker?

Comes from the bench and looking at it, two mids on the bench? I reckon it'll be fin lol

 

[Jen2310]

I think the sub role will be gone next year so we won't have to worry about who is sub and how much time on ground they'll get.

 

[Hardas]

Good to see Allan back in - to play mid rather than wing, I hope.
Seems like such a short team, yeah?

Me too.
