Round 18: Geelong pre-game discussion (With Teams)

[Go Swannies]

does anyone else think that our backline is too small against the geelong forwards. With pods, mooney, hawkins and ottens al rotating through there forward line often playing a 3 tall structure richards and grundy will need some help from another tall defender. I doubt that mattner or bevan can really play on their talls.

because of this i think tht sam reid could be a sneaky chance to make a debut after being in really good form recently in the 2's

The Mummy/Pods interview seemed to suggest that Mummy might play back there a bit this week (and told us that Myke is the strongest in the team).

I smell resting.

Yeah, Bevan "quelled" the influence of Brad Green last week except he ended up kicking 5.

Richards started on Green, and that's when Green did most of the damage. When Bevo went on him Green was barely heard from again.

Has the fact he already had 4 when Bevo was moved onto him been lost on you Robbo?

Forgive me if my memory is playing tricks on me, but wasn't Green's 5th goal from a free after Meredith got pinged for running around in circles?

[Triple B]

Surely the first time in history a side can be unchanged after losing by 73 points.

I'm not sure what changes should have been made, but I have to say I'm flabbergasted.

[Mr Magoo]

After they played so well last weekend what would you expect

[Triple B]

Forgive me if my memory is playing tricks on me, but wasn't Green's 5th goal from a free after Meredith got pinged for running around in circles?

Yeah, because Bevo didn't give him an option to handball it..... Robbo's case rests, your Honour.

I don't know how you can lose by 12 goals and make no changes.

[sWAns63]

We'll try Jack on Ablett would we also try McGlynn if the Jack match up isn't working?

[Peace]

hasn't anyone heard the saying "You don't change a loosing team" ?

PR was really not kidding around when he said they were just going to forget about the D's game.

Jesus. Oh well. True to his word then.

Does anyone on the team know how to hogtie?

hasn't anyone heard the saying "You don't change a loosing team" ?

What about a losing team?

[royboy42]

Most of the preferred 'ins' are injured. LRT ,Bolton,Bird,Smith and Bradshaw and, I suspect Rohan as well....otherwise it would be change for the sake of it..

[Bas]

I don't know how you can lose by 12 goals and make no changes.

Based on the theory that lightening doesn't hit twice in the same spot.

[CJK]

hasn't anyone heard the saying "You don't change a loosing team" ?

No. Certainly not.
