MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - Round 21

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

Apparently on 3AW they were saying Gawn and Lumumba could be late outs on Sunday?

good boy

[chook fowler 19,551]

Would have dropped Bail ahead of M Jones. Can't understand that - wouldn't play either of them. No point.

The Prince is very lucky to be there.

Pity about Tyson, really need him.

If Gawn is out, Kreuzer will ruinate us.

[Ricky P 757]

We'll [censored] them.

We play better after we've been pumped.

[poita 3,902]

You can't honestly tell me that Lumumba has been better value than Matt Jones in recent weeks.

A bench containing Bail, Newton, Riley and Jamar is as bad as anything we dealt with last year. Plus Brayshaw who should have been rested a month ago, and has struggled ever since.

I can't see that Stretch's average 9.5 possessions a game warranted another opportunity this year either.

A half decent side would beat Carlton by ten goals. We might get them by three if we're lucky.

Wearing the red jumper this week.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Wearing the red jumper this week.

About time.

It's the best clash jumper we have had for years.

[Young Blood 2,634]

So much better than the white clash jumper.

Hope the Carlton team that killed Port with their pressure doesn't come out on Sunday.

[DubDee 26,117]

If Gawn is out it would be nice to see Russian play a farewell game

hes always tried his guts out for the club. just limited athleticism

[DubDee 26,117]

hard to give a rats about this game but Ill still watch. if we win itll be expected and no big deal

if we lose itll be a disaster (again)

such a pity to have another 'nothing' season. finals seem a long way off

Yes a loss will be a disaster, just like the match vs GWS at the MCG late last season.. the kind of soul crushing loss that sets a club back 12 months.

The potential of ending on 8 wins is a nothing season?

I was gonna say after last week, what's the point of having it if we aren't even gonna wear it.

[Moneider96 1,045]

Even Damien Barret reckons we will win this game by 10 goals.

Now I am really worried

us beatuing carlton doesnt mean we had a good or bad season. they are shite and have nothing to play for. us winning wont give me any more confidence going into next year

and we have no chance of beating Freo or GWS even if they dont give 100%

As if Garry Lyon tipping us wasn't already a curse!

[What 18,810]

Certainly great to see Salem back in the team... we need all the class we can get!

We're a sneaky chance against GWS in the last round.

I reckon next season will be great. I don't think we'll make the finals but I reckon we'll get about 10 wins. That means we'll be in the 'finals race' for a large part of the season which will be pretty exciting after the last decade or so!

That does not say much rpfc

[rpfc 28,779]

That does not say much rpfc

No, it isn't. But he asked for an honest opinion...

[Slartibartfast 17,628]

Lumumba has been better value than Matt Jones in recent weeks.

Well it's moot I know but I can't agree.

Matt Jones has had 33 possessions and 7 tackles compared to Lumumba 17 possessions and 6.

Hard to mount an argument for Lumumba. He's been horrible and I don't know how he's still in the team. Perhaps Roos has gone to him and said "While I'm coach you won't be dropped". That's what he said to Rhyce Shaw.

Bb you made a good case for Lumumba having been poor this season, particularity the point about how low his possession count is.

Unfortunately for the dees Lumumba made an even stronger argument last week against the doggies. He was woeful, particularly in terms of how weak his tackling was.

[TheoX 1,222]

Have a look at StKilda's outs. They've shut up shop for the year.

They want to finish below us so they can get Parish.
