West Coast match ups

[ralu]

Key match ups against eagles. I know were at long odds but stranger things haver happened. We have a good record over there and they have many an injury worry (cox, embley, judd, fletcher-wont play etc)

1) JUDD: Rhyce Shaw to start but he got killed by B Harvey. Mick should tell him to run with juddy all night. Back up would come from ben johnson and maybe pendles (dont laugh cos he has pace to stay with judd for 10 mins while others have a rest)

2) Kerr: Licuria has to get the job. Maybe Tarks.

3) Lynch: Prestigiacomo to get first crack. Wakes as back up

4) Embley: Definately Ryan Lonie

5) Hunter (if forward): Wakelin or Maxwell. I think its best to leave clement on a bad forward as his rebound is awesome. But he is always a gun backup

6) Cox: Obviously josh but i think bryan has to play. He will be better on big ground rather than richards who is SO BAD!!!

What are your thoughts and who else would u match up on?

 

[spartan-magpie]

davis on wirrapanda... he gave him a bath last year.. and will do so this year..

 

[spartan-magpie]

a good match up for for richards would sam boswell ( under 16s at nth coburg saints). boswell might have the skill and strength advantage tho.

I'm personally sick of all the Guy Richards bashing from people who are doing it like it's the new cool thing to do. Most of you were happy for him to stay on the list.

Staker: Maxwell/Clement
Judd: Johnson
Hunter (fwd) or resting ruckman: Wakelin
Lynch: Presti
Embley: Lonie
Waters: Medhurst
Kerr: R.Shaw or Licuria

Rocca: Glass
Cloke: Hunter/Graham

I know we have been competitive at times against Weagles in Perth but our last win over there against them was 15 years ago (1992 by 1 pt).

Can't see the trend being reversed here but would be happy to be wrong.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Licuria take Kerr;

Waters on Lockyer, Tarks can take him up the field and run him around a bit.

 

[pendles]

1) Rhyce is too fat now to be following Judd around all day. I would have thought Daisy would be a good option.

2) Don't tag Kerr. Put the second tagger on Judd.

3) Nathan Brown will get Lynch.

4) I'd pull Davies out of Willy and have him line up on Embley. Has played well on him in the past.

5) Who is Hunter?

6) I don't think Shannon will get a game this week.

Richards bashing is fast over-taking o'bree and lockyer bashing!!

But wait until either of those two have a bad game!!

Re-Match ups

Judd - R.Shaw, H.Shaw.....rotating tag
Kerr - Licka, give him a big job, might get him out of his slump
Embley - Lonie
Lynch - Presti, Presti owes him one as Lynch jagged 5 last time
Cox - Fraser, run him around Josh like last time
Glass - Rocca, tough night for pebs
T.Cloke - Staker
Hunter - Maxwell
Panda - L.Davis, another good subi game from l.davis i hope, he plays very well back over there
Medders - ????, can medders produce one of his subi specials???

What slump is Licca in, it was the first game for gods sake!!

Anyway, Licca to tag Kerr, and Rhyce has to run with Judd, he has shut him down on a number of occassions, and if juddy boy has a bit of a corker, could be even better for Shawy!!

Fat? Are you an image concious borderline anerexic?

licca was poor all last year, did nothing over the pre-season and was poor again on satday

perhaps he needs to get back to his 02-03 role of the big tag on an oppo gun and then hurting them when we have the ball

 

[Lonie_from_50]

1) Rhyce is too fat now

When recovering from a knee injury, Rhyce Shaw worked on himself to get even better. He gained 4kg of muscle and lost all his puppy fat and had much better skin folds.

He is now officially a tank

 

[OneEyedPie7]

LICCA on kerr no way would I ever consider that, kerr has way too much pace for him, IMO R.Shaw should play on him as opposed to Judd.

 

[Wolfgang_99]

Tex Walker was a 'Tank' too.

 

[OneEyedPie7]

Tex Walker was a 'Tank' too.

Problem was he had the ability of a dyslexic chook

 

[pendles]

Tank, yes.

Gazelle, no.

 

[pendles]

It's a relative term.

i literally "laughed out loud"

nice one

Match ups ey?

Judd: Racer, still has the speed to go with him, and has done it before, we missed him last year over there.
Kerr: Has to be lica. Kerr aint the quickest player in the world, but loves the in and under stuff, just like lica, get him back doing what he does best.
Embly: Lonie. Did the job last week on wells, and embly will be slightly underdone, i dont care if lonie only gets 10 touches, as long as embly gets less than him.

Rocca: Get him to take Glass out of the square, push up to CHF, bring in ****, play a small forwardline of ****, tarkyn and davis and medders. will force them to bring some of their midfielders out of the action.

Davis: Play for the wirra match up, davis is a bit quicker and alot slicker around the goals.

Fraser: Play him as a Goodes type midfielder/ wingman, if they move staker onto him, get josh into the ruck, keep him moving around to create the miss match.

Hopefully malthouse is true to his word that only those who are playing well will play in the 1sts.

For mine, richards has to go, either play one ruckman, or bring in bryan. Richards is a liability and should be gone at years end.

I dont think that wakelin has a match up, and is getting older, keep him fresh from the long trip and bring in a small like **** or nicholls.

FB: BJ, Presti, Maxwell

HB: Lonie, Clement, Heater

C: Pendles, Obree, Fraser

HF: Travis, Rocca, Egan

FF: ****, Medders, Davis

Foll: Bryan, Racer, Lica

INt: Swan, Thomas, Tarks, Burns

If you remeber correctly he was carrying an ankle and hip injury for the majority of last year. He seems to have shaken it off though for this season.


As for a poor game on Saturday, he wasnt the best and he wasnt the worst.
He was average I would say, but I wouldnt say he was poor. I think people are just kicking hi while hes trying to get back up!

get over it

this is nothing compared to the crap tarks and lonie get.

Foll: Bryan, Racer, Lica

Egan is still injured.
Bring in Reid for his first game.
Play him out of the goal square and have Thomas on the forward flank.
You have to start Thomas on the ground.
D1ck to start on the pine.

Whats the dif between average and poor???

I'll ask again are you liccas mum?? coz every time someone say something bout him you want to protect him!!

Sorry to say but the game has past licca.

FWIW.
I would play medders and davis out of the goal square, if you play only one then one of their other defenders will take them, if you play 2 you force wirra to play a negating role on a leading forward.
this is a weakness in his game and it needs to be exploited. we saw leon do it to aker and wirra last year, fingers crossed he can do it again. hopefully anthony can bust open packs like he was doing last weekend and we make sure we get people to the fall of the ball.
