    No Changes to Team for WC

    I heard on the MMM Sydney radio news this morning that the team has left for Perth, and that Roosey said on the way out that there were no changes "at this stage".
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

    No change, no surprise. Did anyone seriously think Bevan was going to get a gig this week?

      thankfully not! i reckon the team we got on the park now is the best of the year- balanced. PLUS bazza is actually marking it and kicking some goals!

        They have gone over early so that they can find a barn for Micky to practise his goal kicking.

              He kicked 2.2. First half he was a bit yippy, then got his act together.
              I'm counting on Micky to do us proud this time round ... he owes us (for the yips last year!!).

                I was commenting on his marking. For such a gun forward he drops a lot of marks he should take.

                  Plus he takes a lot where you think,"How the hell did he get that?"

                    IMO he was never really a proper FF. He was put there by Roos because of MOL's knee problems, so that he could create some scoring opportunites there and perhaps kick a couple himself. Don't expect too much from him in terms of kicking goals (especially from set shots), because his accuracy is terrible.

                      I am also amazed at the "how did he get that" ball he often seems to get finger tips on or craftly runs around the boundary line and steps this way and that. Well done Mick

                        Whoops, crossed wires. I was talking about Bazza in response to Nomae.
                        Annie's@Home threw me off track by quoting my reply about Hall then talking about Magic.

                        I didn't realise we switched to Magic.
                        Magic has great hands whether marking or passing.

                          MOL has great hands, Hall has great feet.

                          Imagine if we could combine them into some sort of super forward. Michael O'Hall. Or just call him Plugger...

                            Whoops right back at ya ... I re-read it ... I thought you were talking about Magic.

                            Sorry Pal ... yes, Barry's hands have been very slippery lately.
                            Micky was all yipped out until BBBH gave him a goal. Micky picked up tremendously after that.
                            Bazza was VERY, VERY generous on a few occasions in the Carlton game.
                            VERY generous.
                            Very impressive.

                              Don't think 'no change' really means anything, given they chose their interchange from seven last week, one of who included Bevan.
