Preview Round 5 vs Brisbane at the Gabba, Sunday Afternoon, 4:40pm

[Mini GF]

The word used inside the club for this weeks game is "massive"

Thurls they had yesterday and today off. Can’t be too massive so far.

Maybe if he signs with Richmond in Round 11 we just toss him in the middle to give our other forwards more opportunities...

If he signs in Rnd 11 he'll be wearing a moonboot for the rest of the season #fishmatera

Am I missing something, why is everyone on Holman to be dropped?

Am I missing something, why is everyone on Holman to be dropped?

Overworked , not really dropped maybe Rested or manage , can't expect him to pull up big tackle number and Hall just do the watching .

I was talking based on last week, if he isn't laying tackles he doesn't bring much else to the table. Where someone like Brodie may tackle a little less, but brings it in clearances, goals etc.

is it bad i thought it was a troll when i read man weller haha

on both of them tho man has recovered from his hammy niggle and played well in the vfl in bad conditions albeit and probs gets a game cause we suck

robo has no timetable because of how scary it was and the fact he had no idea of his irregular heart beat. woudknt expect him before the bye again but hour seasons over so who really cares haha

This forum actually has a Where are they now thread. Up to the individual whether they troll or genuinely want to know about former players. I'm interested because Mav's a free agent and his brother is contracted for several years.

He’s cooked, you would be able to get him on a rookie deal or 1 year base salary.

Not a problem-we will give you our first round draft pick and you have yourself a deal Mr.

And we will draft a bust

The circle of mediocrity

Holman ran a close race with Rischitelli for most ineffective player on Saturday night. NEAFL games against the likes of Lions2 and Swans2 will allow him the chance to continue to improve at the roles he's been asked to fulfil so that he can return to the Senior side when he's needed. If he's going to be a tagger in the AFL he is going to have to get used to being dropped regularly when there's no obvious matchup for him.

Holman coming second in comp for tackles , you want him dropped over one poor game ? Your a hard task master .

I’m hardly the only one. Lonergan can also tag, tackle and get 25 possessions with 8 clearances. When one guy starts to slump in form and another is kicking the lights out in reserves you have to shake things up. I didn’t agree with dropping anyone until the NEAFL got going, but now there’s a real form guide.

I actually prefer Hall drop to 2 than Holman, Holman had been doing the tackling , tagging from JLT to Freo Match , as for Hall he was very Good in JLT , but nothing special or with effort since his finger surgery. A team like Eagles spread the ball very well , you can't depend on one or two individual to do the defensive work . Hall one tackle in the West show he did not improve his defensive work at all .

If Holman's job in Perth was to run with Gaff Yeo Masten Fyfe or Walters he didn't do it very well

 

[17er]

Look for news today of Dawson and Heron being activated to the Senior List and eligible for selection.

 

[Peel67skin]

Look is more a mismatch , did young ,hall, Ainsworth do their job ? Holman can't run with so many players . Even Banfield who do a good job on hall , can't do much against GWS players .

Eg , holman ( delisted by Carlton) on Fyfe ( Fyfe a superstar do a better job is expected)
Banfield (Rookie ) on Hall( Hall is the better player from Sun yet he get smashed )

Fyfe can play with a broken leg against Hawthorn but what did Hall do with his injuries.

If Holman on Gaff
Who the other Suns players take care of Lecras , Yeo or Masten ?

I don't know
But they all played well
If he's not kicking goals or setting them up then what's the point
Get someone in who potentially adds more

 

[gosuns!]

From my perspective it's not a knock on Holman. Problem for him is we have NEAFL performers in his role at the moment. He impressed in the first 2 rounds and was down in the west (not alone by any stretch).
With Hall there's no obvious like for like in the 2's. We need him to lift or we will be to slow on the outside.

When will hall lift that is my Question , do GC need him to get injured only replace him without the like for like just like in first round .i hate to take Hawthorn as an eg because they might lost against North without Rioli and Poppy , but team adapt by tweaking game plan sometime .

The Aaron Hall saga continues.
Hall to me ranks alongside Jack Watts, Steve Motlop and Josh Jenkins as one of the most frustrating footballers for
all supporters,heaps of ability but only produces on rare occasions.Not surprising three have been moved on by their original
clubs.(coaches nightmare).
Would I play Hall this week? probably cause we are desperate and we do need some outside run ,but patience
is running thin.
For me INS Barlow Brodie Scheer
OUTS Rischitelli Macpherson Ainsworth ( if Injured)

I agree , hopefully hall lift vs Brisbane , if not sending him to NEAFL might post more unknown then answer .

Barlow, Spencer, Rosa, Lonergan in to the team.

Won't know who misses out until tomorrow.
