Game Day Round 7 vs. Essendon, MCG, 3:20pm ANZAC Day 25/04

[ElliottsMaggies]

Won’t be any Changes anytime soon as no one at VFL Level good enough at moment to get a Game at AFL Level

No one playing today was a chance to play on Anzac Day anyway. That's why Sullivan & Harvey didn't play.

It was an overall poor performance by everyone in the VFL side today. It happens.

Round 24 last year, helped us regain form heading into September.

 

[jmac70]

Nope

So I guess they could be a chance of coming in if someone pulls up sore.

Hopefully no change.

That was a good day.

Markov was good. Our midfield showed why they aren’t playing seniors

 

[Horaceg]

Win this and we’re in the 8

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Markov was good.

Agree. Love seeing his form improve each week. Shows good leadership out there to the young kids, like to Wil when he was having his first shot on goal.

 

[Kes1984]

Such a beautiful kid. After what he went through I wish him all the success.
Will not surprise me if he has a huge game.

He’s such a sweetheart!

He could be a little less selfish and kick some himself. But he genuinely seems to get so much joy from gifting goals to his teammates

Warming up for Anzac Day..

What did Reef do wrong? He only came on to replace Pendles with about 7 minutes left in the game. Still hit the scoreboard. I give him more chance of contributing in our forward line than Harrison at this particular time.

Reef hasn’t done anything wrong.

But there’s a case to be made that he’s had his block of games…

and it’s now time to rotate the squad a little… give Harrison or Sullivan some game time as sub…

so we have capable depth who won’t be too overwhelmed going from say playing against part time footballers in front of 800 people at Coburg

…to playing in front of 80,000 in week 1 of finals against a quality team

I was surprised they didn't give Reef a half a game today. maybe the fact they didn't is an indication he's probably playing on Thursday.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Watching the replay again and I’m gonna make a bold prediction

Schultz will kick 5 or 6 and win the ANZAC Day medal

Mate

No one will listen to us

I agree 100%

I doubt we’ll make any changes. If we do, Sullivan or Harrison. Nobody else in the VFL put their hand up.

No one from today's game were ever going to play on Thursday, regardless of what they did.

Shhh, that's my prediction too. Gonna put a gorilla on him to win the medal. And by a gorilla I mean... a fiver.

 

[mocamagic]

Consider Reef into the 22 and Schultz as sub

 

[Ctracks]

I would love for Bobby to win the Anzac Medal.

Peter Pan, Gingerbread man, Yoda etc can win the Anzac Day medal. Just get the 4 points and a comfortable win is my preference.

 

[leon123]

We'll have to make sure they don't edge us

I think we may enjoy that though

He is my new favorite, he is a rippa

 

[Lockyer24]

Harrison is #1 in the Bain Marie but I think for this game I would have Sullivan on standby to sub in for Mitchell or Pendles. Don’t think it makes sense to sub on a mid size forward especially when Will is in form

 

[Kes1984]

He is my new favorite, he is a rippa

Been thinking I might get 23 on my 2024 Guernsey - but not been fully persuaded. Reckon I'll be doing it before the game on Thursday now!

 

[iGNITER]

No change. Best performance for the year.

B - Quaynor Frampton Howe
HB - Maynard Moore Crisp
C - J.Daicos DeGoey Sidebottom
HF - McCreery Mihocek Hill
F - Elliott Cox Schultz
R - Cameron N.Daicos Pendlebury
INT - Mitchell Lipinski Noble WHE McInnes

Not sure on the sub…

 

[The Phantom]

We need a mid as a sub more so than a forward, just in case Mitchell or Pendles needs bench time.
I can see Sullivan coming in to replace Reef for a blitzing Anzac Day debut.
(Tough on Reef who barely touched the turf).

 

[NMBB]

I kept thinking yesterday as he was handing goals out like lollies, it was his dress rehearsal for Anzac Day.

He was giving stuff to others as if he'd spent the week with the Salvation Army..
