hells bells 2,023 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I have a good feeling about this week and the next. 2 in a row hoodoo about to be broken.

Willmoy1947 4,261 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I'm in the surprise camp this weekend. Thinking ANB and Hunt to come in, covering any speed and in and under Collingwood might be thinking about. V berg and Bernie out, Still thinking about the rest, and beat them at their own game.
leucopogon 1,519 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Out: Vince (susp.), Vanders (ankle) In: Brayshaw, Garlett (if fit otherwise ANB)

Great closing speed and height with the ability to spoil and not get out wrestled. Thoughts? Good thought in my opinion.Frost has not made it as a forward so far, seems more suited as a tall back, therefore defnately worth a try.
Deestroy All 14,266 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I was told before round 1 that VDB was having ankle issues even before he rolled it and was having a lot of trouble getting it right. Didn't think much of it then but it seems it may be the case, if so why would they play him, been pretty ineffectual.

Being beaten by Essendon was a real shame in our progress.

Absolutely none. 15 hours ago, H_T said: Isn't it intriguing when the media move the spotlight from club to club depending on outcomes from each weekend.......I guess that's part and parcel of AFL and has been for a while, but the media exposure pours it on as if they're looking for a kill. Despite Buckley having been re-signed or having passed go for a..... "Contract extension" (you know that arcade rally game where everytime you cross the finish line you get a "time extension!"), the heat is on at the Pies at 1-2 having been spruiked - and even spruiked themselves - as possible premiership contenders, looking to finish in the higher realms of the top 8. Our Dees were the biggest losers at Round 2 and now face a backs-to-the-wall Pies outfit determined to click into gear. It's a big ask to get up each week, but the Dees must play at the standard they set themselves. Each. Week. Get passed Round 4 - and without wanting to look at weeks in advance - and it will no doubt be the same predicament - a severe focus on the "Contract extension" Dimma coached Tigers. Make no mistake, a Tigers outfit at 1-3 on Anzac Eve will be huge. Book early..... Agree wholeheartedly with all of this except that "it's a big ask to get up each week". No, it isn't. Practically every other team does it and if we want to play finals, that's the benchmark. 15 hours ago, Pates said: This looms as possibly our biggest match for the year, same for the pies. A loss to either team is disastrous, while a win gets the other back on track. Expect the Pies to come out absolutely firing in the first 10 minutes similar to the bombers, we wilted at this increased pressure last time but we have to match it and go beyond. Brayshaw was underdone v Bombers, he will be ready to go this week. Garlett was expected to get up for the Kanags game according to Misso, if he isn't right for this week I will never believe another word that comes out of his mouth. Harmes had a much improved performance on the weekend but still is not doing enough, and AVB missed a sitter and has had pretty low output for the first few rounds. These two I don't expect to be dropped but they are in the firing line once Petracca is good to go. We're going to need some big performances this week, we have to bring what we had from the start of the 2nd quarter to this game. No more honourable losses, no more yoyo performances, get the bloody job done. Besides kicking 3 or 4, I'm not sure Harmes could have done much more. I'm not his biggest fan, but he had 10 tackles (a team high). Going by the footage of Petracca down at Casey, Harmes will be getting a game before him based solely on his defensive pressure. 14 hours ago, Peter Griffen said: He's pretty sore apparently, i don't think Bucks will be keen to let him anywhere near Jack Viney so i'm pretty certain he will play half back. in which case i hope Hogan and Frost are instructed to put him to ground ( fairly ) every chance they get. I'd send Bugg to Treloar and try and limit his influence, outside him they don't have many match winners. Just Cloke or even Moore. Anyone could bob up against us if we're not switched on.
Adam The God 30,767 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 4 hours ago, DeeSpencer said: Garlett for Vanders and Brayshaw for Vince looking more likely. The question will be does Brayshaw play half back and mid like Vince has or more his usual forward/mid with some time on the wing. I wouldn't mind trialling him at half back at some stage of the game. I think Frost gets another week over Pedersen. And I think Bugg should as well and I'd definitely put him on Treloar. That's a kind of interesting idea. He's good on the sling-shot is Brayshaw, with that penetrating kick of his.

leucopogon 1,519 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 I've got a gut feeling that its all going to click for the Dees either this week or the week after and we're going to see a complete domination similar to that game against Sydney in the Bailey era where we absolutely blew them away. It's gotta happen sooner or later,

Let's hope they do think exactly that, and put them to the sword. You can think the other team is rubbish without waltzing around like you don't need to try. There's no reason for us to go in constantly with this negative attitude thinking that we have to be scared of the other team to play well against them.
What 18,810 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Really interested to see if Angus is selected, and if one full game back at Case was enough to get his fitness up And we pray Jeffys ankle is cherry ripe

Wonder if the Tiger's fans thought that before Fasolo almost single-handedly delivered the Pies only win for the season?

Said Petracca is still a couple of weeks off Would this be what he went down to the rooms for at Qtr time against the bombers? Or is this different? Been a while since a good player has been suspended but we have had 2 such good quality players coming in.

Nasher 33,686 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Brayshaw has played three cobweb blowers now - one of them just happens to have been in the seniors. He should be well and truly right to go now you'd think. Agree with the two forced changes only. Brayshaw in and Garlett if fit, ANB if not.

Couldn't think of anyone else going to Fasolo, but I'd be a little worried about Fasolo muscling Jetta out of the contest. Having said that, Jetta is bloody tenacious so will fight hard.
