Changes for Gold Coast


DeeZee

Recommended Posts

OUT- Grimes, Trengove, Frawley

Let's let those 3 know that a better work rate and decision making is required to be at AFL standard and you cannot just take your position for granted and not show the likes of leadership and heart that Jones displays. I'd drop about 10 other players too and see what mud at the bottom we have left to put on the MCG. Because I doubt they'll do worse

You'd get rid of those three and keep that lazy bastard Sylvia ?

Unlike others I think this week's team selections will be fascinating. We've a month of the season to go, there will be major changes at season's end, we've got players such as Morton and Gysberts coming off good games and we're up against the Gold Coast at home. Chatting to my Brother today and he's convinced that if Morton and Gysberts are not selected for this game then you won't see them at the club next year. I think he's right. If you're not going to play these two players now they're definitely not in your future plans.

Totally agree and you can add Cook to that list.

i really dont care anymore. id rather finish lower and improve our picks. play the kids too

That sounds ominously like tanking to me.

We want no part of it.

Pick the players to give us the best chance of winning.

Nothing else is acceptable.

Until very recently, Williams has looked completely lost at VFL level. He's just starting to find his feet there and is miles off a senior gig.

I was wondering about Williams, He has been showing up in the best players in the VFL, Is a forward and the Player report on him are positive. But with your comment, might need more time. But it is Gold Coast, wouldnt hurt to give him a crack if he is fully fit.

Out Dunn Jetta Strauss McKenzie Sellar Spencer

In Watts Tynan Gysberts Morton Petterd Fitzpatrick

All good but not show about Fitzpatrick. Stick with Spencer and agree with the rest.

As an outside chance would like to see leigh Williams get a game.

I like this very much! This guy has big potential for very little coin.

No way !! Go for Williams and Cook and to hell with it!! They're our future with Jurrah and Clark next year. Common Neeld restore my faith..What's to lose?

Was talking to one of the assistant coaches at Port Melbourne who really rates Williams. He reckons that clubs try and close his run down and don't worry too much about Cook. Also reckons with another (and this time full) preseason behind him will be very good at AFL level.

Thank you Angry Dee,

Williams as a mature Rookie has massive raps from Norwood and South Australia. Had an absolute horror year with Back Injury and severe illness. If he's right to go why not pick him V Gold Coast. I know very little about Cook but everyone keeps talking about him.

So you're hoping that we don't just get beaten, we get flogged?

Yes agreed Robbie F=the worst changes I've ever seen.

Apart from Williams. Why not try him?

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
