Round 8 Central v Sturt

[Booney]

Who comes in for Liddy?

Biggest hypocrite on this site, absolute wanchor
self righteous pompous twat

Who then?

[Dogs64]

Do we get compensated for Port taking Liddy
We paid him to play for us not them.
So we lose out for paying someone who isnt even going to be with us

If Port take Liddy you get a transfer fee ( Maybe 20K ?) . Also as neither Port side will be playing finals, he will be eligible to come back and play for Centrals in the finals.

So we get Jezza, Linke & Liddy back for the finals.
And Dudley next year.

It's only $10k.

[TDJ44]

Monaghan for Liddy and possibly East for Thomas.
At the start of the year Monaghan was going to be in our best 22.
Just can't stay healthy since coming to the club.
If only Sharp was available.
Pearce a possibility to replace Thomas,but hasn't done enough in the reserves.
Do they bring Harvey Howe back in?
We really do need another key position player.

[northerner]

He's just not an AFL player, sorry.

I didn't think that Mani Liddy was either.
He's not in the top 10 for disposals this season.
I guess a handful of good games is all it possibly needs.

He's been good for us, not "dominating" at all. 22.6 average disposals, 5 clearances, less than a goal a game and about 4 marks per game, at 184cm not a big midfielder. Anyway, Port gets to boost the depth of their reserves. The old system was so much better, for all stakeholders.

I believe he is good enough. His 22 disposals are worth more than others who gain 30+ possessions. He is a run and carry players with ability to hit targets at pace. The stat that he would be leading in week in week out is metres gained.
In the style of Rozzee and Butters, he could make the grade. Especially if he continues to progress as he has over the past 6 months.

I would have fully expected him to be drafted later this year. Just really disappointed that we dont get to see him play our this season; just as our midfield was looking capable of matching the best, we are hit with a major blow.

Kendall injured this week, so a 3rd replacement needed.
Reckon East and Monaghan are both in our top 22 and they should come in. Also appears a youngster to debut as the 3rd.
Would love to see Mihail come up but he needs a couple of ressie games under his belt.

How long is Kendall out for?

Out - George Kendall (Inj) Mani Liddy (AFL) Beau Thomas (Sus)
In- - Jack Callinan Max Monaghan Ethan East Jayden Matz Jai Larkins Dale Pearce

Jayden Matz to debut

[Hazydog]

Jayden caught my eye playing 18’s.. and I think did ok in the U/20 team a couple of weeks ago. Interesting choice given Howe has played the last 3-4 ressies games and would have perhaps thought he was higher up the pecking order..

[Dutchy]

What are you guys talking about? Under what circumstances could Jezza play for us? He's a contracted Port reserves player. Under the new moronic concessions if he's not selected by the port reserves any given week, he can play reserves for Central or amateur league.

Jezza could walk out on Port before 30th June and re-join Centrals

[UK Fan]

[PatowalongaPirate]

Strut by 13pts.

[southernbulldog]

Was always going to be a huge challenge for us tomorrow against the 2025 flag favourites
with so many out it will be a great test of our depth . .

Who else is out?
Test of depth for sure,Sturt seem to have a bit more than us.

[pmackk]

Apparently snelling is an out pulled up sore after last week nothing to serious though.

[northerner]

4 changes for Dogs.
Liddy, Thomas, Kendall (prob one week) and one significant other (who will miss at least 4).

5 weeks with no changes and then 4 in one week. Ouch.

[PatowalongaPirate]

Apparently snelling is an out pulled up sore after last week nothing to serious though.

That tips the balance if the best player in the contest withdraws.

Advantage Dogs.

[southernbulldog]

Northerner can i take a guess or would that give it away
