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

[CheckerTrade666]

Okay so unless Carlton choke, this game looks to be a dead rubber. Wouldn’t mind giving Allan a go considering his good VFL form.

 

[stormskye]

I’d bring in Allan, Demattia and Richard’s

Out: Parker, lippa, bytel

Why Drop Parkers

Play the Kid

The game is Meanigless

Ahh well the Eagles have decided to lay an egg this aftenoon so we're now just playing for pride next week with finals out of the question.

Hopefully we can come out and play some good footy and end the season on a positive note (and end Melbourne's on a bad one).

Why Drop Parkers

Play the Kid

The game is Meanigless

We still want to win.

 

[partypie]

I'll be very surprised if Dan M plays. Very badly smashed up left hand.
Parker and Bytel probably miss, ins Reef, Richards and Allen

Macrae surely has to get a game. Can't have done much more yesterday against a strong opposing midfield.

 

[Apples]

In: Clean hands
Out: Fumbles

Plus one to including Allan he’s ready for another crack.

Ah, you want to drop Lippa then?

 

[stormskye]

Macrae surely has to get a game. Can't have done much more yesterday against a strong opposing midfield.

He gets possessions but he’s lacking composure with ball.

Why Drop Parkers

Play the Kid

The game is Meanigless

He’s had a few cracks. Has skills but no size. Needs a pre-season. Give the last chance of exposure to someone else

 

[Apples]

As far as I'm concerned, there's no point in playing Fin. We know he's not up to AFL standard. No issues with us keeping 'Peter' Parker in the team and bringing in Allan and Reef. I think Bytel will be given a 'rest'.

 

[JOELY]

A couple have Reef as an in. Is there any word on him after the VFL game? Saw him take himself off after a heavy collision and looked a bit dazed.

 

[Go Pies!!!!!]

Not really important now but still want to finish the game off with a win

Out Bytel, lipinski
In Richards, Allan

Yes mate, just this.

 

[76woodenspooners]

Time to give Harry DeMattia a taste of the pace of AFL footy.

Whet his appetite ahead of the pre-season.

Why bring in Reef he’s not up to AFL standard either. Thus why he’s not playing and when he does he can’t keep his spot. Exactly the same as Finn except the bf posters get all upset when I say that Reef is a spud and needs to go.

 

[IlovethePies]

Would love to see Allan get a taste of AFL level football in the midfield.
Also want to see Richards selected in the Top 22 to get a deserved game. So Bytel omitted and Richards to take his place.
Long to be included in the Top 22.
I liked Parker's game, and he allows Sidey to tag an opposition midfielder, so he stays.
So agree with Lipinski making way for Allan.
Allan as sub.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

The season ended for us this evening. Rest Pendles, Sidey, Elliott and Howe for this game, and the club can start organising anything that needs surgery or a clean up now, in preparation for their off season.
Play Macrae/McInnes, Allan, Dean and Richards, at least...

 

[PIE-BOI]

Operation get the ball to Nick at any opportunity to help him get the 3 umpires votes and 10 coaches votes.

Ok how much you need us to roll them by ?

 

[Doc1763]

there will not be wholesale changes. They will want to win this game.

no point 'playing the kids' for one game. that's the type of thing you do when you cant make the finals with 6 games to go, not 1.

 

[PIE-BOI]

Ok how much you need us to roll them by ?

About 170 points difference between us.

 

[Doc1763]

Ok how much you need us to roll them by ?

120 would be handy. Is Roo available?

 

[marcus1232]

Meet you halfway we do them by 60 and you get Melb by the same ?
