Good to see they've guaranteed Morton a game.

Cheers wayne :thumbsup. I've split it so it doesn't get lost in the other thread.

Polo very stiff to be dropped on the back of one game. Will he be the new Brent Hartigan?
That is a very average looking team. :help

Very stiff, I thought he did a good job on Shannon Grant after being moved onto him.
-
im worried about polo, thought he would have shown more
i think he is another hyde anf possibly coglan, bit slow for the moderm game
dont know why mguane is selected even though its an extended squad

wallet said start of week, he will wield axe? polo ,hyde big axes ::) ::) ::) ::)

l think Polo wont last the season with his crook wings there X & he will waddle away come seasons end
shame l had big wraps for this lad, he does have the pace & smarts but his weak wings will be a premature end to his short career :'(
But dont worry Coughlan will be holding his hand out the door ;D with hyde on the other side ;D

Add Browny to that daisy chain skipping through the door! (I hope against hope we are wrong with the lot of them particularly Polo and Cogs :()
I hope Petts is added to the list with Hyde and Polo. The fact that he is on the bench would suggest to me that he may just be playing for the 2nd this week. I would rather a tall and three mids on the bench rather than a two midfielders, one tall and a mid-sized forwards who struggles when he is put on the ball. Just my take of course but Riewoldt has more pace and isvbetter at ground level.
I would also love to see White included as he was brilliant on the weekend for Coburg and has pace to burn.

Hopefully Petts gets droped to the Coburg Tgers as a real wake up call to fly right and play some decent hard footy. Terry needs to be true to his word when he announces that he will make big name wholesale changes b/c if he doesn't then the fear factor amongst the players in regards to him will drop, he will lose respect (perhaps more respect) and the fragility of the football culture amongst the playing group at the club may continue to crumble.
-
well thank god.
now be smart wallace and actually drop petts.
he is another who just coasts along and wallace has to make a stand.
-
Polo is very stiff. Terry doesn't like him much. Polo has told some close friends that Terry has his favourites.
McMahon, Polak, Pettifer, Polak should be add to the outs.
Morton, Johnson, Riewoldt should get the nod.
Collingwood's forward line is a danger with our defence.
Polak is very slow!
I hope Tivendale doesn't play, and Cleve doesn't get dropped!
-
Hey Torch, Terry doesnt play ""favorites"" does he?? :o :o :o
-
McMahon, Polak, Pettifer, Polak should be add to the outs.
Not a Polak fan torch? ;)
-

lol, stating the obvious heyyy. but when a player says that, you wonder who is or isn't !
-

Not a Polak fan torch? ;)
he is very very slow, and not at all agile. great hands, but is too slow!
-
Polo didn't get much of the ball but wasn't he negating Brent Harvey and then in the last quarter Shannon Grant? I thought both had minimal influence when he was on them. I guess he's a straight swap for Sugar.
I can't see Hydey playing many more RFC games now.
Sugar and Morton are named in the starting 18 so there's only one more inclusion out of Whitey, Tivs, Jack and McGuane you'd reckon. With 3 smalls cut I think it'll be out of Whitey or Tivs.
-
wallet said start of week, he will wield axe? polo ,hyde big axes ::) ::) ::) ::)
no he didnt , he said he would but not straight away, he said he will see over a few week period who wants to play and respect their jumper and who does not.
hyde and polo were in the side for 1 week but instead of playing hungry and showing they wanted to stay, they were on holidays. all other players played poorly also, but the week b4 they didnt so they get another week to prove themselves
just curious, should the bombers drop all 22 as they all played poorly and what about melbourne, port, etc

Wallace gave Polo his first crack - couldn't get a game under Frawley and then 17 games in his first season under Wallace. Played very well and was being pushed as one of the club's 'young guns'. Played 8 in 2007 before a season ending injury and was obviously still under done on Sunday. Will go back to Coburg for 100% game time and the chance to rebuild some confidence and flair (plenty of that in '06).
Doesn't like him - pfft.

Just read the article. HE said ""there will be changes next week""
dropping Polo and Hyde is hardly making changes. ::) the spin doctor at work once more.

Polo wasn't playing under Frawley, he was in the 2004 Deledio draft. He didn't play until 2006, in the Dreamtime game where he kicked butt.

Yep, my bad - he didn't play under Frawley. But to suggest Wallace doesn't like him is way off the mark when you look at his career thus far. He had a very good season in 2006 following on from that Dreamtime game and it was injury last season that wrecked his year. He will be back in the seniors in a few weeks and I will be very surprised if he doesn't quickly 'rise to the top' again.

Huh ???
There have been changes which is what the article said would happen.
Whether it is two changes or 10 it said changes and we have changes ::)
IF the number of changes are enough is a different argument altogether

if petts is dropped then i will be content.
if he ends up being picked then wallace has done nothing constructive.
polo and hyde big deal. i want petts and similar players to be sent back to coburg to learn whats its like to play seconds

Heard on the grape vine that Pettifer has been dropped - not 100% confirmed but my source is usually correct...

ummmmm, Wallace drafted Polo mate, not Danny. Pick 20 2004 Draft ... pfft.

after the allegations that were made, i doubt our team has the temperament to play well against Collingwood. The wheels will fall of, and the season will head towards another train wreck.

I'd actually be surprised if Holland-gate would have any effect on the players. (I presume that's what you are talking about). It would be purely an administration concern. It the player lose the plot during the game it will be all there own work.
-
Coughlan and Brown won't be skipping through any doors holding hands at the end of the year. Contracts to the end of 2009 say so.
-
yep ...
In: Johnson, Morton, White, Tivendale
Out: Raines (Knee), Polo, Hyde, Hughes
give Hughes a chance, and why play Tivendale were there is no more improvement !
disappointed !

Looks like straight swaps. Morton in for Cleve, Sugar for Polo, White for Hyde, Tivs for Raines.
I can feel the luv for Tivs :D
-
Tivendale has been slected because his form warranted it.
Go Tiv :thumbsup
:rollin
:gotigers
-
i hate tivendale, everyone knows that, but i admit hisform of half back last week was fantastic. if tive can play like that for the 1st's, i would be the first person to congratulate him
i just hope he does not choke abd become his old self on sunday

Good objective post. Must reward form in our side.

Yep, my bad - he didn't play under Frawley.

haha X ;D my good mate Tivendale strikes back :thumbsup l told ya last week he aint finsihed yet
his so much poo put on him this is his final year to produce or his out the door
he played that game like he had burning poo in his pants :lol he covered the ground so well
he even getting greedy not letting his mate take his free kick & booting a goal
l think his been working on his fitness, cause l aint seen him run like that for a long time
Go get them Tiv the Tiger kill them skunks the war has started :thumbsup :gotigers
put ya bets on X :thumbsup the odds are too good to give up we are a chance
with Morton in a few k on that 39pt Richmond win :lol we be on a good binge :cheers
-
Disappointing changes , swapping young players for young players when we should be getting more in the side..
I would have thought the wooden spoon side with a number of key players 30 or over this year would be trying to
get as many young players into the side not the other way around..Not happy..
-

Go Tiv :thumbsup
:rollin
:gotigers
if ur theory is correct then petts should have been dropped because as u say his form warranted it.
what a disgraceful decision to let him play after his performance.
we r going no where if we continue to let players like him play week in week out if they dont put up 100% every week.
i cant believe it. pathetic
-
after the allegations that were made, i doubt our team has the temperament to play well against Collingwood. The wheels will fall of, and the season will head towards another train wreck.
yep gone id say. i feel a beating coming and our season staring down the barrel.
cant believe they drop hughes. ooh my god is wallace that messed up in the head that this kid needs game time not this one week in one week out crap.
can any of you see any gain in this decision cause i seriously can't??
-
Cleve has paid for two weeks of poor goalkicking. Inside Footy actually said Petts had a good second half last week :o ???.
On the Holland thing if the team is affected by it then they are really mentally week. Dutchy left at the end 2003 so most of the side wasn't even around. Nor was Wallace or most of the footy dept. staff and current admin. Only Richo, Bowden, Newy, Petts plus Johnson, Schulz and Moore (all 1 year) played with Holland.
-
rubbish petts had a shocker last week. wallace is just too weak to drop him.
-
I would have rather seen Wallace make a statement with Petts also, Hughes was nothing spectacular either i suppose.
I hope Matty White backs himself in and takes them on like he did last week at Coburg, he looks really fit this year and ran all day last week for Coburg. His pace would be very handy in our side.
-

Wallace will be right under the pump with his choices this week unless we put up a good show against Scumwood.

Whitey's footskills were much better too because he was able to break into space using that pace.
I guess one positive from the 4 changes is those that performed extremely well at Coburg were rewarded and the 3 that were dropped know what it'll take to get back into the side.
