PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

FB:  McVee  May  Hore

HB:  Lever  TMac  AMW

HF:  Fritsch  Petty  Chandler 

FF:  Kossie  JVR  Melk

MID:  Gawn  Oliver  Rivers

Bench:  ANB   Bowey  Billings  Brown  Woewodin (Sub)

In:  Gawn, Hore, Brown, Woewodin (Sub)

Out: Kolt (inj), Salem (inj), Turner

Turner unlucky but I think we are too tall and slow up forward if he plays with Max back

I like the idea of hore in the side to play the old Hibbard role, think we really need that ball reading ability.  If wet maybe Howes instead

Pup earned a track as did Billings from their games on the weekend

Richmond got a crowd of 19K to their game against the Giants two weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon. 

Given our respective member numbers and the poor forecast for Saturday night, are we in danger of falling below that number? 

SEN seems to think so. Garbage outlet.

There are people on here who have admitted that they refuse to go to games to "protest" against what they perceive to be poor performance of the club.

Our own members admit they don't go to games. Hard to blame the media from having a dig at us then.

FWIW I agree with the other posters who are concerned we will get a lower crowd than the 19k Richmond got two weeks ago. We might play well on Saturday nights but we don't draw good crowds to them, even at the best of times. I reckon we'd do better crowd-wise if this was 1.10pm Sunday. 

 

Apparently both May and Lever have pulled up sore and are in serious doubt/wont play??

Could explain the Jed Adams coach talk mentioned in the training thread.

Not sure if Goody knows the importance of the Sparrow role personally

Interesting if true about Lever and May being sore. Our emergencies have no talls.

On form he absolutely deserves to be dropped. His numbers are all down by the eyeball test is even worse, just has no impact on games.

Unfortunately the cupboard is bare and the inclusions are uninspiring. Would've much prefered to see Brown than Laurie.

Did such a great job defending the Freo mids as they won the first 24 clearances of the match. 

Sparrow dropped is great news. At his best, he is slightly unheralded. He hasn't been at his best for a long while.


So in: Gawn, Laurie, Woewodin, 

Out: Salem, Sparrow, Tholstrup

Interesting changes. Woey to get a full game as the 7th defender?

I was very surprised to see that!

Sparrow dropped. Very interesting.

When was the last time he played at Casey?

Sparrow out is left field but fair given our midfield was horrible last week. 
Not sure Laurie will do better tho. 
 

God help us with the rumours about May and Lever are true. Disco will certainly have to go back to cover May and Howes will replace Lever? 
Surely they’d have Tomlinson as emergency if May was in doubt.

Brown with 24 tackles deserved a call up Outstanding performance

I would’ve like to have seen Brown rewarded for last weeks effort

After 24 tackles, 27 disposals, 11 clearances and a goal for Casey on the weekend do we reward K. BROWN with a game against the giants?

Those sorta numbers force him into the team, don’t they?? 

Obviously not 😣

 

There’s no way we name those emergencies if May and Lever are in serious doubt. 
Brown is a bit stiff.

That's insane tackling level.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
