AFL listed players likely to make an impact in SANFL finals?

Postby Aerie » Mon Jul 03, 2006 10:36 pm

Maybe the most controversial topic come finals time when the AFL clubs decide who they will and will not let play for their SANFL clubs in the finals. With Adelaide likely to be playing right up until our Preliminary final stage and Port likely to be finished by finals time, which players are qualified and do you think will make an impact?

Some big names in Perrie, Hudson, Bock etc who will all be coming back from long term injuries via North and the Eagles there will be some juggling to do for the selectors. Especially at this tme of year and especially for North who have a bunch of their own KPPs returning from injury anyway.

From the Eagles the following have qualified:

Skipworth, Shattock, Vince, Knights and I'd expect Bock will play a further two games to be eligible.

Last year Shattock was withdrawn by the Power to have an operation, but he should be available for us this year given he has played in every game except one. Bock was also withdrawn and I'd be surprised to see him line up with the Eagles in the finals this year anyway. Vince and Knights I would expect to be available (if not picked by the Crows) for experience as much as anything and would not surprise me to see Skipworth withdrawn once again because of his ankle injury.

Who's available for North, Central, South, Port, Glenelg and Norwood?

given the seriousness of Bock's, Hudson's and Perrie's injury I would not bank on these players being released to play finals footy, along with Welsh I think the crows will rest them for a big pre-season........

the other reason is that these guys are first 18 players, the Crows may not risk them

instead, the crows may try and get finals experience in to the young guys, such as Knights, Maric, Griffen, Skipworth

Will Motlop play finals for us or will the teal withdraw him to have shoulder surgery?

Glenelg (Qualified) Hinge, Douglas, Willetts
Potential to Qualify Clarke
Unlikely Mahoney, Salopek, Bode, Glenelg :shock: (I'll get in first before Punky does) :evil: :axe:

Actually I still think we are a realistic chance. Balls in our court though up to us to decide if we want it or not....
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

if there is any slight fitness / injury risk over any player I don't think they will be released

also in regards to the Cows, we all expect them to go pretty deep in to the finals, hopefully to the last weekend in Sept....

if it plays out this way, then the crows best 22, no matter how many sanfl games they have played will be off limits, but the others that may have just missed out, if they have qualified for sanfl, I am sure the crows would be keen for them to keep playing to retain match fitness

so you would expect, vince, skippy, knights, van berlo, stevens, hudson might play sanfl finals depending if they make the best 22, but you sense that Craigy is keen to get Perrie, Welsh and Bock back in to his best 22

Exactly what my view is. I'm sure the Crows are keen to have all their available players playing finals in SANFL if not in their team, but what happens for our Prelim and Grand Finals when they've finished is out of SANFL clubs hands unfortunately.

Will be very interesting to see how North handle getting Perrie, Hudson, Alleway, Walker, Gill, Weatherley, Cox, Koops and Hargreaves all in the same team and which players Jarman takes preference over in the coming months.

SYDNEY DOG

Do you reckon WELSH, PERRIE + BOCK will make a difference?

BURTON /ROO are kicking plenty of goals to cover WELSH/PERRIE

BOCK may not make it as you sill have HART to come in.

Maric and Stevens at Port I would think they would have trouble holding down their spot in the Crows if Bock and Hudson come up,if not Clarke may replace the inexperienced Maric in their finals side.Stevens has had a few good games of late but expect him to be back at the Pies once Perrie or Bock come back in.(Perrie back in releases McGregor back).Adam Kingsley is obviously out of favour with the Power at the moment and will play out the rest of the year with the Pies.I would expect him to shine when the heat is on later in the year.
