Autopsy Round 7 vs Richmond @ MARVEL - 30/04/23 - 3:20pm

[KaySwizzle]

What’s McLaughlin got to do

Not have Chol (ruck forward), Luko and King as our forwards I’d say. Plus Casboult (ruck forward) every other week.

Same as why Burges and Corbett never really played last season.

 

[The Kings Ransom]

What’s McLaughlin got to do

He’s only been at the club 2 seconds and not sure how much you can take from the Geelong VFL thumping.

If he is playing at that same level and still not got a look in by the bye then I think we can complain.


Jeffrey definitely picked on talent and 5 year potential rather than Any recent performance.

 

[SandyToes]

Dewy still has the golden memories of Darwin 2022 wins and resigning for 4 years when the future looked like anything he could wish for
And part of that was JJ's bag
As they say
The past is a different country-they do things differently there

 

[GC2015]

Prestia being rested is huge for us. He can be such a damaging player for them so it's relief to know he won't be there.

Yes, we're still missing Touk but they are missing Prestia so both midfields will be adjusting in this game.

 

[Big Red Machine]

Prestia out for the tigers.. scared of Humphrey

Was Dion ever this much of a tampon when he played for us?

First person to put together a Suns Bear highlights package set to this song get's my undying love and affection.

 

[kreglze]

Atkins, Davies, Fiorini and Sexton on the bench.

 

[Southern Sun]

Don't mind the changes, Humphrey probably spends majority time forward with Davies to come in and play a defensive mid role. Sexton gets his chance with a starting position.

 

[Sun Stormer]

Atkins, Davies, Fiorini and Sexton on the bench.

Looks like we've gone back in time...

 

[kreglze]

You would think it is last chance saloon for Atkins and Sexton to nail a spot.

 

[KaySwizzle]

Atkins, Davies, Fiorini and Sexton on the bench.

You’d imagine Atkins, Weller or Ellis will spend some time off of halfback to rotate there, since we dropped Andrew as the spare defender.

Davies and Fiorini both through the middle with Humphrey and Swallow.

Sexton to either hit the scoreboard or at least open up space a bit. He also knows how to rove a pack, at least.

I really hope Atkins, Sexton and Fiorini do well—for their sake and for the team. They have a lot of people (including myself) to prove wrong on the weekend.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Happy with those changes;

Atkins comes in to take Weller's role, use Weller up the ground.
Davies "hopefully" defensive role on Taranto.
Fiorini 3rd midfielder behind Rowell & Anderson, feeding the outside runners, Weller, Ellis, Luko, Powell.
Sexton better than Rosas

Sub Oea, inject speed into the game, hoping Richmond fade away again in the second half

 

[sunsofanarchy]

How did Jeffery get a call up based on that game? Quad Squad I would go Fiorini, Sexton, Davies, Atkins, Sub - Rosas

I will be pitching a tent if humph actually starts the game in the guts

Now show me the bear in the middle!

Atkins looked to mostly be playing off a back flank last week so that's the roll I would expect to see him play. Good luck sir.

 

[Jirik13]

Foxsports experts Richmond 15 — 0 Gold Coast Suns.

Tigers did play probably their best footy so far against Demons but faded in the last quarter.

With no practice game, Soldo could struggle to last the whole game, Tigers went with extra tall.

It will interesting if we stand up and bring it to them. Common, boys, win it and season is almost back on track.

I beg you. Please, please convert easy shots (and we probably win).

 

[KaySwizzle]

With no practice game, Soldo could struggle to last the whole game, Tigers went with extra tall.

The week we don’t run Andrew as a third tall, we come up against a 3 tall forward line… figures.

 

[Iva Bigun]

Must've banged Dew's wife

Or ate the last party pie, not sure which one Dew would be more upset about

 

[geoffneverflies]

I see Bolton as the most important Tiger to stop after what he did to us last year

We should see far more rotations in the midfield without touk, big chance for Rowell and Anderson to breakout

Both teams turnover the ball a lot so it could be a very messy game


AFL R3: Gold Coast Suns vs Geelong Cats Preview

 

[Brad Jordan]

Or ate the last party pie, not sure which one Dew would be more upset about

You and I both know the answer

 

[GC2015]

Mac Andrew deserved to be dropped. He's just not there yet and needs more time in the VFL.

We can't afford to be carrying passengers without Touk.

 

[Billy ray]

If atkins takes the kickins and turns it over, I’ll be fuming

 

[Jirik13]

 

[Jirik13]

 

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

Rowell daddy!

 

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

Is this Iva Bigun or Ben Drever scowling at the team?

 

[GC2015]

GAME DAY!

Our opportunity to get the season back on track and re-enter the race. The main things I want to see in this game are a midfield that can function without Touk Miller

continuing the good form he showed last week by kicking multiple goals again. Give me those two things and I can accept the result but I think if those two things happen then we're very likely to win anyway.

Let's make up for the Freo loss and get the W here. Bonus that we essentially end Richmond's season if we win

GAME DAY!

Our opportunity to get the season back on track and re-enter the race. The main things I want to see in this game are a midfield that can function without Touk Miller and Ben King continuing the good form he showed last week by kicking multiple goals again.

I can't accept a loss today, it's must win.
