Eggy being picked is interesting. He is pretty close to like for like style wise with Bachar. I reckon they might throws Baker on the ball. Actually a close facsimile to Prestia, clean hands , evasive, good in traffic, small but tough. A better user as well

Thanx mate! So Sydney putting out the youngest team this week.

 

[spook]

LeeToRainesToRoach do you have the age, games played, height, weight etc of the 2 teams.
Even though we have many outs the team still looks strong and experienced compared to the swans who look inexperienced.

Lee always delivers, but if you can't wait you can find them here as well:

Don't think it'll be this week, lamby. Bakes one of our seven backs. Reckon Shai and Higgo will get a crack roving.

 

[tigerman]

In: Graham, Pickett, Soldo, Egg, Bolton, CCJ

Out: Cotchin, Prestia, Nank, Houli, Edwards, Lynch

Close....but no cigar

 

[zippadeee]

In: Graham, Pickett, Soldo, Egg, Bolton, CCJ

Out: Cotchin, Prestia, Nank, Houli, Edwards, Lynch

Shocking inclusions.
Why Pickett
Why Graham
Why Eggman.

Cj Cd and Markov would've been better inclusions

Naish Naish Naish Naish Naish Naish?!

Hi fastin,

Bloody stiff re Naishy been in top 3 in the Scratch Matches i have seen but if you listen to Dimma's press conference and read between the lines he indicates that playing well in open spaces, (i.e. 13 v 13, 14 v 14 etc), doesn't really impress him saying you still need to play the Richmond way.

IMO Naishy couldn't have done much more in the circumstances so he may well be bemused

Agree with Spooker, the mids will look something like this:

Martin
Higlet
Graham
Pickett
Bolton

Dusty more mid minutes than he’s had in years.

Caddy/Chol pushing forward.

Grub on Papley or Heeney, Sydney won’t score.

 

[Scoop]

I think Short has his spot, which spells conflict for @Scoop

Porque no los dos?

Jeez I hope dusty plays well.

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

First time in a long time that we have been the taller and heavier side

last time we were taller - 2018 R11 v Essendon
last time we were heavier - 2019 R18 v Port
last time we were taller & heavier - 2016 R15 v Port

Egg better lift his intensity on what I have previously seen or it will be a one week stay.

 

[Midsy]

Another one for @LeeToRainesToRoach - do you have a win percentage for each Victorian team when the play interstate? Cheers.

Another one for @LeeToRainesToRoach - do you have a win percentage for each Victorian team when the play interstate? Cheers.

Three sets of numbers

- record in (WA v WC & Freo) + (SA v PA & Adel) + (NSW & ACT v GWS & Syd) + (Qld v Bris & GC)
- record outside Victoria as the away team
- record outside Victoria

Lambert will surely spend a lot more time in the middle as well you'd think.

My thoughts exactly. We are still 2nd shortest side playing this week; Swans tied with Bummers as shortest by 0.2cm!

It makes us the third shortest

At least we have brought in Balta and Chol !

 

[tigerdell]

Ideally jack g, Higgo and Marlion and even Shai go inside to replace Prestia and Cotch.
That way Lambert can play his link role.
He does play a lot of around ground stoppages inside anyway (when Dusty pushes forward)

Hate to quibble, but I meant numerically, as Swans and Bummers both 185.7.
But 3rd overall team.
