    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 20 vs Geelong at GMHBA Stadium

    I suspect the pissed off PE teacher needs a week off. Has looked like a battered unit in the last few weeks- very ginger and slow to get himself off the ground on at least half a dozen occasions.

    Hopefully English can get a hold Ceglar and *hopefully* we make Stewart accountable. Our forward line could be a real problem to them.

      Lol

      Cordy in just shows how absolutely putrid our KPD ranks are, and if nothing is done for next year then heads need to roll.
      I’m lost for words, but then I’m not.

      Farcical.

      Cameron and Hawkins will be licking their lips.

      Oh and McComb ? FFS
      I will never see #16 the same!!

        Not asking much of him are we?
        Both options are not great, but I'd rather go with the player the MC think can better run the ground and get from contest to contest - Keath just doesn't look right physically and will get destroyed by Hawkins (Cordy probably will too, sigh). We'll need Khamis and Hannan to peel off and chop out, which exposes us to crabs like Rohan getting off the chain. Gardner matches up well on Cameron physically but he doesn't have the smarts. Then there's Dangerfield to take care of, and their 2 smalls Close and Stengle are in white hot form. It's a deadly F50 line-up they have at the moment.

          If Geel win the midfield they’ll kick 20 goals.

            What's the weather forecast? It's rubbish in Melbourne tonight, so if there's more rain tomorrow it mitigates their aerial advantage somewhat.

                Cordy has balls so does Cameron, and kicked our first goal in our premiership.

                OK by me.
                We live or die by these selections amongst other things.
                Just do not kick it OOB on GMBHA narrow flank or give a free for lack of intent or POQ!

                  And what of our fwd line of Naughton, JUH and Bruce? And English around the ground.

                  I’m not sure cats have an aerial advantage. They do in their fwd line but we’re no mugs.

                    Overnight low in Geelong of 1c. Morning frost. Light winds. 10% chance of rain on the surf coast early. Sounds like a still perfect winter night. It could be dewy.

                    At 8pm the prediction is for it to be 7c with 7km/h winds. So cold. Still. Perfect night for footy.

                      They’ve got Stewart. We don’t have anyone in that caliber unfortunately

                        Naughts is a competitive bugger and Bruce might go from 3 possessions to 2 as a result of the weather. JUH is quite nimble and looks like he can handle the slop. The rain also negates their rebound marking in D50, whereas we don't possess those weapons at the best of times. I reckon the rain helps us and plays to our strengths to keep it more of a ground ball game.

                          Keath has been going JUST, think it’s irrelevant if it’s him or Cordy. Both are/have been poor this year.

                          Game will be won in the midfield. English chopping out the defence will be crucial.

                            Gotta say, as I thought about changes this week, not a single time for even a millisecond did names Cordy or McComb enter my mind.

                            I reckon I could’ve run the full squad list and still not found a reason or way to get them in. This is intense.

                              We just beat Melbourne with Keath out of form.......and this is what you come up with?

                              Good to see you've shaken the COVID off and you're back to your regular self!

                                We all know I'm not a Cordy fan, but I agree with Sedat - Keath has been diabolical. I've watched him closely for a while and he's dreadful. It's one of the biggest falls from elite form I've ever seen. He was arguably the best defender in the league for most of last year, and he now rightfully has been dropped from a very undersized, ordinary back half. That speaks volumes. I hope our list management team take note and plan for 2023 without Keath.

                                Good luck to Cordy.

                                I wish Bevo would give up his McComb experiment but this is his typical see-it-through for the year case study.

                                Did TOB sign for 2 years? Hope it wasn't 3.

                                Good to see Daniel back.
