Port Adelaide 2017

[MW]

I think Clurey on Kennedy and Howard on Petrie but don't see who goes to Darling.

Darling is 191 and strong, Houston is 187 and not, Hartlett is 185 and could compete strength wise and DBJ and Pittard are taking Le Cras and Jetta.

I think Houston then goes to Redden and Hartlett will get Darling...not ideal really.

This is the no.1 selection dilemma for Ken.
Win? What selection dilemma...
Lose? Should have played Trengrove...

[Brodlach]

Hartlett on Darling would be an unmitigated disaster.

Just saw Hartlett and him mum(??) walking the streets, looks a bit 'proppy'

[morell]

Yes and Bonner has the flu I heard.

[daysofourlives]

have to say i havnt taken much notice of any late changes this year, but i know last year when i used to get the selection mail it was always as i was given. Maybe Ken has woken up and started using coaching tactics and strategies, who knows might even introduce a game plan next year, this bloke could be worth perservering with

[bertiebeatle]

The longer i thought about it this week, the more i was convinced it would be only the 1 change....

No surprises to me. Thought we would go smaller in defence and try and run them off their feet. I think it could work if we get as much of the ball as what we have in the past against WCE this year. If we lose the midfield battle, we are F****d, but pretty confident we will win in the middle and should get the W. Nervous but confident

[morell]

Sam Mitchell looms large too. Doesn't play well against us usually as I think he flinches at the uniform thinking Kane Cornes is still playing.

If he works out that we're actually really susceptible to a good inside/outside midfielder and starts winning clean clearances, with their forward line and our defense we could be in serious strife.

Not confident at all the more I look at it actually.

Ryder has Vardy and Petrie to contend with, I expect to get first look at it more often than not.

[morell]

Agreed. Thank **** we have him jesus christ he is easily our most important player now old mate Swarmy.

They'll only need to break even in there though...

[Booney]

Mitchell and Priddis v Wines and Ebert inside, with the likes of Shuey and SPP as support roles.

I'm looking at our skipper, Ryder and Ebert to be influential tomorrow night. Boaky has been building a nice body of work the last 4 weeks and is back covering ground through the middle. While Wingard was out he had to play high half forward and that didn't suit him, now he's back in the midfield rotations he's looking much more like the leader we know.

[morell]

Could Bonner play on Darling? He's 191cm in high heels apparently.

I've seen more of Bonner than you blokes and I say no. Darling would love that

[morell]

Well I just hope we win the lions share of the clearances then.

[stan]

bahahhaha.

Bonner or Hartlett to Darling. This is funny.

We have you guys. Kennedy will give Clurey a bath.

[MW]

bahahhaha.

I reckon Howard will go to Kennedy

[morell]

Nah, no chance. Clurey will get first dibs at Kennedy. He's taken the best forward all year.

[stan]

bahahhaha.

Bonner or Hartlett to Darling. This is funny.

piss off ya flog. Im trolling in here.

[Booney]

bahahhaha.

You're not usually this chirpy until late on a Sunday full of gas.

Last time we met, how did that turn out?

[MW]

Nah, no chance. Clurey will get first dibs at Kennedy. He's taken the best forward all year.

And then when Kennedy has 3 before half time, Howards turn.

[Booney]

Clurey takes the bigger bodied, Howard takes the tall.

[MW]

Clurey takes the bigger bodied, Howard takes the tall.

Clurey quick enough for Kennedy on the lead?
