Beating North melbourne
- Thread starter Tigerfan
- Start date
Nth Melbourne may be doing a good job of beating themselves. A lot of pressure on a team that has rested half a side one week to then bring them all back in the next week - in an elimination final.
I reckon it gives our guys a psychological advantage with a "us v's them" attitude - a bit of "this team is giving us no respect by resting their side and think they can just walk over us the next week".
Smash em Tiges.
They are going to cop it big time when we beat them in the final.

Anybody see Usain Bolt in the 200 meter heats at the World Champs? Blew them out of the water over the first 120 meters and then jogged the rest. That's what the Tigers need to do, come out hard and bang on 10 goals and then play Cotch, Martin and Miles in the forward pocket for the second half.
It would be the perfect preparation for the finals, you don't lose your touch sitting on your butt for 2 weeks, but the legs get a good rest all the same.

Brad Scott speaking like an a-hole being so sure of himself with this move.
Just another 'going through the motions' win tomorrow night. Get the game over and done with quick, grab 5th spot and get ready to smash them the week after.

It'll be interesting to see if Sam takes the *smile* out of him tonight on The Footy Show.
I don't think I have ever been angrier or more disappointed with the AFL in allowing North to rest 10 players. I am livid. If North start a blue or target any of our stars I believe the integrity of the game is shot to bits. With the professionalism and purity of the competition compromised, we now have the ugliest can of worms imaginable. Lyon has started this and it is in my view totally indefensible.
I can't see how the AFL can prevent resting players. Unless they can prove they are doing it for a draft advantage, there's nothing preventing a club from resting players in the name of managing their health. How does the AFL ascertain any particular player should be playing and not resting?

Absolutely.
Look at it this way:
Team A thinks 'smash em'
Team B thinks 'we better rest our sore bodies'
Who do you back next week?!
