Preview Sydney v Bulldogs SCG Sunday 3:20

[LukeParkerno1]

Thanks. I watched the game but pretty sure they never said!

you could see him hobbling most contests he's a tough bloke, annoying he missed the set shot early though

 

[Tedeski]

Mills

If fit!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Because we see our own teams mistakes more.

Zorko turned it over 7 times, Mcluggage 5 , both teams were it was windy and a tight game

Fair, it just seemed our turnovers came in a row, don't really count Eroll as his 'turnovers' are just him going for hard kicks and he makes them more often. Blakey doing Blakey things will send me bald

 

[LukeParkerno1]

If fit!

Correct, we need him fit surely a sunday game he's fit. I'd pay Hanily for Paps, I assume they won't go Konstanty

 

[Jewelsbon]

Blakey has been far worse, I mean people blame Florent for the HTB yesterday it was a dead set hospital pass to him. Florent will be better once we have Mills to stiffen up that back half a bit.

Yeah it was a hospital hand pass, but Ollie looked completely lost by what to do, at the very least he could have tried punching it away. Yes he probably would have been done for incorrect disposal but he was always going to be done by just pulling it in. He had his arms free, just had to do something, but instead he just looked like he had no idea what so ever.
Ollie is one of my favourites, but Caesar is right, he's terribly out of form, in my opinion more so than Wicks.

who?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

who?

Our Mid season draft pick. Has the body too.

 

[Tedeski]

Maybe not even that, just do something , I dgaf what it is.

The interesting one will be if as we get mids back like Rowbottom and Mills, maybe Jmac? But have Paps out do we go back to Heeney as a forward ?

Yes.
With Mills back he can go mid & hopefully Ramps is back for finals.

I feel we don't like to change personnel & structure too much so there will only be forced changes to the team.
Mills for Papley.
Francis or even Edwards (debut- to provide spark) for Ramps.

I blame Blakey more who has this annoying trait of wanting to give up 12-18 points a game through dumbness at the moment

I don't care he's being played forward in the reserves SURELY and I mean SURELY Hamiling is in this week, Francis will drive everyone up the wall

 

[sataris]

who?

He suplexed Callum Mills through a table in the pre-season.

This was Ollie and Blakey yesterday talking strategy.

They were talking? More than I thought they were doing!

 

[The King!]

Doggies fans are pretty chirpy for a 9th placed rabble with a cushy draw. Only have a sniff because we have a few hurt , let's be real , no injuries and win by 10 goals.


They will read this because they can't resist . 2016 was bullshit too

This reads like you’re shitting your pants mate hahah

Hanily did not play the reserves game against Brisbane.

I think Wicks is more likely. With so many changes recently. I guess they will go with someone who has played a lot with the other forwards. Rather than someone completely new.

But with so many injuries, it is motivation for Konstanty/Hanily and others to get fit and push for a spot. Guys like Corey Warner and Sheldrick might be a chance to play a few games.

Wicks sure better have been better than he was 2 weeks ago putrid is being kind for his performance 2 weeks ago in the VFL. Please don’t play Sheldrick as a small forward I might officially lose it then

 

[Kbroome]

Depending on the injury report coming out tomorrow but seems that out of the best 30 or so we will have Rowbottom, Mcinerney, Rampe, Papley out and potentially Hayward as well although he could just have a very bad corky that he played through.

Given that i expect Mills to come back in for one of the new injured two i also expect Fox to be the small tasked with playing on a tall. Means we need a couple of forward half players Maybe Campbell plays as a high half forward, Corey comes into the 22 as well means that all we need is a sub and that could be Wicks, Mitchell, Sheldrick.

I expect it to be Mitchell tbh as he seems to be the first emergency last week

 

[The King!]

No I just knew some Dogs sad arse would read it.

We will beat the Dogs like we normally do. They played their grand final last week.

If we’re bringing in Wicks and Mitchell, we’re already behind the 8-ball from the start

Re. Sheldrick

I meant with the number of injuries we have compared to earlier in the season. There are opportunities for guys like Sheldrick to come into side and possibly keep their spot if they play well. Like Corey Warner did on the weekend.

Not sure if Rowbottom is back this week. Mcinerney is still unavailable. And Mills might not play every game.

 

[Kbroome]

Yep i know that but there isn't much more we have left in the squad and they are the best that we have to cover all of the injuries to the midfield/winger area. Also them coming on as a sub hopefully won't be the worst option for a week or two untill Rowbottom and then Mcinerney are back

 

[SeanM]

When we are missing several of our best 22. We can't be too picky. There might only be inexperienced or out of form players available as replacements.

If Papley is ultimately out for a few weeks. I would prefer to select a specialist small forward.

Wicks has been putrid lately but I’d back him before Mitchell. Corey as sub works

If the option is Mitchell, just play Sheldrick and push Adams forward for a week or Parker
