Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
Gardner and Cordy as our key pillars, in a prelim.
Hold me.

Listened to Bevo this morning on SEN and he did a great job of making it sound like Martin was nowhere near it. Very surprising

Have to stop them getting inside 50.
No Keath…Dixon will have a field day.
Gardner, Cordy, Wood…
Those port fwds will be laughing all the way to the GF
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
Backs to the wall. Let’s do it dogs…
Any report on how bad injury is to Keath? If we were to make it to GF might he be back in the frame?
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
Well. This is where we need Cordy to deliver. Just like in the 2016 prelim when we lost Roughy and he evened things up with a knee to Wards head. Cordy, we need your knee now more than ever. We need you to offset the loss of Keath by getting Dixon out of the game.

With Keath out, I feel he had no choice. If we lose the centre clearances and they get a quick kick into their 50, Dixon is a sure to kick 6+
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
How’s that BOM forecast looking? Need a bit of rain to even it up.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
Martin & Cordy in!!! Wow.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
Keath feels like a bigger out than Bont, just because any replacement, in this case Cordy, is just so far below what Keath can do.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
A positive spin is 2016 we had Fletcher Roberts and Joel Hamling taking on Franklin, Cameron, Lobb, Kennedy and Darling to name a few. Team defence will get the job done.
Fletch and Hamling were very inexperienced at the time
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
It’s a huge bonus having Martin in (as long as he stays fit) to at least negate the centre bounces and give our mids a chance to win the centre clearances.
This is now set up for us. A real backs against the wall win. We lose two key players in the lead up to this game and we travel the world just to get to the game. Isn’t this just the type of scenario that suits us? No one gives us a chance, even less now, and we step up and take the game to the Port pretenders.

I agree. Break glass in case of emergency he said. Well, this is an emergency!
I mean, how confident would we be if Keath AND Martin were out there. I’d be amazing. But… Stef needs to give us good use, and we need to keep it away from Aliir.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3
So cruel. All week we’re worried about Bont and Cody. Suck up the bad news with Cody knowing Bont is good to go and now we get sucker punched with the Keath news. Honestly this is exactly what we should have seen coming given how 2021 has gone for us.

Treloar in the middle has much more potential than Cordy down back for sure.
