Showdown XIIXIIII whatever it is....

Postby Booney » Thu Jul 05, 2012 11:40 am

What do you blokes think? I'm worried it will be ugly.

Adelaides midfield of Thompson, Sloane and Dangerfield have had (relatively) two quiet weeks.

Thompson - Kane must go to him. Of the three he wins more "outside ball" and can be held a little. Plus Kane has the motor to go with him.

Sloane and Dangerfield - We simply dont have anyone to go with them. Cassisi is too slow to go with either and they both win a fair bit of "inside ball" which is almost impossible to stop. The only was to do so is to get the ball first.

Butcher is lucky to be in there, only there with Sculz missing, they might bring D.Stewart in?

Renouf, I think we've all seen enough to know Lobbe should lead ruck with Redden learning behind him. Renouf has zero impact around the ground, zero.

Porplyzia also worries me if Surjan isn't 100%, who goes to him?

How much Adelaide?
PAFC. Forever.

Our ruck situation is difficult, Renouf gives up nothing around the ground, but Redden and Lobbe give us almost as little at a ruck contest

why in the heck did primes bring in trengrove, obviously he can't punch and thats why he played up forward so why bring him into the side and cause another injury to him. How can we let a ruck man play a full game in the ruck and have 61 hit outs. How in the heck can we let ricky henderson kick 6 goals. I'm sorry but it's time for Primus to go, he lacks the ability to change the game plan during the game, i think he should just go and change his name to Neil Craig.

I dont know much about footy but i do know that the Power are going nowhere if they think Westhoff and Butcher are going to be their key forwards in the future.

Well if that is the case, then the entire team apart from a couple of players is is F******G S**T and the sooner they turn over the list the better.
I'm not doubting that they're not trying, it's just that their skills and decision making is very ordinary most of the time which continually burns them.

when you have a coach whose skills and decision making where very ordinary then you can't expect much more from your players

I think MP lost the few remaining supporters he had left after last nights effort.

Coach can't coach - B grade support staff - hence the players are not developing as they should have been. Everything about the place from the top down is rubbish. Get rid of Peter Rohde. thomas is a yes man , Duncanson a who knows what he does. Tell the players to shut up and stop talking to and looking stupid in the media. Most of em are about as intelligent as a rock and can't string 2 sensible sentences together. All recruits except Ebert are terrible and non competative, just a rabble of overpaid sub standard sportsmen. as someone said late last year when the powers to be where patting, themselves on the back - all they did was re-sign the clowns that got them second bottom !!!!!! Adelaide oval won't save them.

Some analytical comments there, very precise. :shock:

One thing to come out of Saturdau night, with Primus and Rehn in the box, what was done to try and curb the influence of Jacobs around the ball?

Surely with two of the best big men in the last 20 years we had some good ideas to give Lobbe, Trengove and on-ballers.
