Who do we play on Buddy this week?
No Polo who touched Buddy up in the VFL that time. Franklin kicked a lazy 6 on Razor last year down in Tassie.
-
Jackson
-
It would be good for Thursty's education.
-
thursty has gr8 closing speed and plays tight. duddy isnt a monster and i reckon thursty can do the job. i say bring in kelvin moore and give moore a crack at him first
-
We'll probably play Rainesy on Buddy going by recent match-ups :outtahere
-
buddy is similar to riewoldt, so I say Thursty should get the job, just like he should have had the job on riewoldt :banghead
-
Adelaide played Massie on Franklin. You want someone who can play tall yet be nimble enough to stick tight to Buddy if the ball hits the turf. You also still want that player to be an attacking rebounding option as Franklin isn't accountable.
-
Sounds funny but to take one from left field King.
Is pacy will match him on the lead is good at ground level and will run off him. With wet weather predicted on Sunday I can't expect a free flowing game at the G so it may be worth a try. Franklin can tend to put the head down and get disillusioned if things don't go his way early. King is a toughie and may get into his head early and put him off. After all he was fined for wrestling in his first game.

I like it - Jake is a serial pest, Buddy hates serial pests, which in turn makes it easier to get inside his head. Jake likes contested footy contests, Buddy does not (does Buddy actually know what a contested mark is :o :help ;D)
Worth a punt :clapping
Wouldn't be surprised to see Joel B line up on him
-
when you think about it the 20cm difference really isn't much ::)
the idea has some merit but really bs IMHO.
if jakey played on buddy they would isolate him up forward and as much as I'd hate to say it Buddy would ahve a field day playing on a midget one out

What the Hawks eventually did against the Pies IIRC. Buddy, after doing nothing for a half, was moved deep near the goals and kicked 3 in a quarter against his much shorter opponent.

Let's just call it indirect tanking :rollin :rollin ;D :whistle :yep :eyebrow :jump

Look guys take it for what its worth. I agree also with some of your thoughts that Jake may be isolated one out very deep but assuming it rains as it has the last few weeks game may be very scrappy and tight and hence not much free flow and very stopage oriented hence he may not get those opportunities he got against the pies. Skills may become non existent and it may boil down to who scrapps the better. We ran the crows to 9 points in the wet Hawks were raped and pillaged by 71.
Jake also reminds me of a more skillful Duncan Kellaway and I recall in 1996 Dunks lining up on one Wayne Carey giving away a few inches there also and having a very good game keeping Carey to 1 goal despite us losing. You could do worse by putting Tivendale on him.

do i get my name published in a coaching manual, have i come up with a new term / stategy lol
-
. You could do worse by putting Tivendale on him.
that would be direct tanking lol
we may as well get hall in for his 100th! he may have a killer son one day lol, play hall on him and that would be tanking it right up!

Jake the pest and Polak dropping back into his face with a, "Stafford" elbow sell.
We may as well rough up the teams that are playing finals,that way we have a constructed rivalry
waiting to explode next time we play = bums on seats = higher quality performance.
I want to see Terrys Bulldog thuggery become at least, a fortnightly occurrance.
ATM teams just laff at us...it's our job to make them hate us,cos we sure as hell cant beat them on the trak...yet.
Couple of well earned suspensions - Wo gives a fLICK ?
Hard bumps applied solely to rub a guy out for the game - Jacko,Polak,Pettifer - IDGAF,Just do it lads!!!!!!
We're cruising for a top draft pick anyway so we may as well start biffing blokes.
Bottom line is,It Sells !!!
We gotta build something from nothing so why not let it be the roughest side in the comp ?? - Can't hurt.
Make Jack a sniper.
Howat is a gun but needs a confrontational streak.... and then he could be a real hard ars Muttha.
Make Johnno libba and hope he gets 6 weeks asap ;D
Make Bowden a stuffen priest so he can preach his BS to MFs that give a poo.
Richo needs to Plugger out in the 50 arc and be the big imposing lug he is,he's gotta wanna hurt blokes by ploughing through a stacked marking contest,
busting some defenders kidney or another such devious blow.
Newmo can play a Solomon role but also needs to get a sh it streak into his guts.
They're all just too fu kcen nice at the end of the day..... :pray

my god, this is a shock!
i totally agree with you
someone give me a gun lol
terry has become too soft as a coach, we wanna see terry bad a r se mongrel tactics he used at the dogs in our team
totally agree
-
Jackson IMHO.
-
I reckon Jacko or Thursty.
Buddy's lazy, I reckon Thursty could cover him even with him not quite at 100% fitness.
-
another factor in curbing his impact would be if it is duddy or buddy who comes to play ;)
