Adam The God 30,706 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Bowey is struggling? He was perfectly fine tonight. Played his role. 19

Not struggling, but he’s fumbling some tough ground balls and losing some winnable aerial contests. I think his speed and smarts still give him the edge, but down back there’s at least genuine pressure for spots. 1
whatwhat say what 23,808 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 i'm expecting no change but it will be interesting to see what they do given the tight turnaround to geelong 1
WERRIDEE 5,638 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Gawn said he'll be back to play Adelaide I'm backing him in. Out Weideman. 1 1
rpfc 29,019 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 No Max. You can play against Geelong down at Mordor. They can take care of Adelaide. No change. 12 1
Wodjathefirst 2,670 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Agree, no change for next week. As an aside I heard Neal Bullen say on ABC radio after the game that Viney’s speech to the players prior to the game and at half time was inspirational. Just like Gawney in last year’s GF told the coaches to keep Jacko on the ground in the centre bounces in the 3rd quarter I wouldn’t put it past him to let Viney speak to the playing group come this GF when we are playing whoever if he thinks it will help the crew. 1
Wrecker46 3,130 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 If Gawn plays I will be disappointed. I love the guy but get him right. Don't take a risk with him. I wouldn't mind seeing Disco coming back he was good until he got knocked out but Rivers is the obvious choice if we drop bowzer. If Viney has the slightest niggle rest him until the finals. 3 1 1
BDA 23,048 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Bedford deserves a run of games. 2 very well taken goals, applied pressure and linked well with kossie a few times. no changes for me 6

He didn't nail them last night, but we were rarely caught out defensively after the first quarter, so he executed his role. Edited June 23, 2022 by A F 1
Bitter but optimistic 22,289 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 That was one of the best even team performances I've seen Melbourne play. Everyone contributed. No change. 10

Often he stays out of them. I think his form of late has been ordinary, perhaps Rivers in..... 2

Lord Nev 13,512 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Hopefully no change, but slightly worried about how Viney's corky might pull up during the week. I guess Dunstan in for him if it's needed. 2

layzie 34,528 Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 I would say no change, not sure what the weather will be like. Rivers I would like in but happy to let it ride. 1
Jibroni 5,056 Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Even if Max wants to play I would give him another week off. No change 4

No change Yeah, bring him back for the following one vs Geelong. Because of the bye/fixturing it will be about 3.5 weeks since the injury. He said a highlight of 2021 was beating Geelong three times!! Like their feline mascot, they would be hissing and spitting at that comment. He won't want to miss a trip to the kittens' playground. Inflict more hurt. Edited June 24, 2022 by Lucifers Hero 2
Alex Flood 245 Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Even when Gawn returns I hope they keep Bedford stays in the side. 2
