Glenelg V Eagles

[Brett]

The red hot Tiges looking good and the Eagles a bit wobbly. Glenelg for me and nearly be a certain for a finals spot.

[gazzamagoo]

Wiggles to bounce back & win by 11 points.

[DOC]

Hard one, Someone (normally South) will play them into form at some stage.

Glenelg by 3 goals.

[Spargo]

Couple of good ins to the Glenelg 23 man squad; Ubergang & Gould.
Time to break this 7 year hoodoo.

Bay Faithful go crazy.

GLENELG
Glenelg has included two key defensive players for its clash with the Eagles on Saturday.

Former Fremantle rookie Matt Uebergang could play his first League game of the year after overcoming a knee injury suffered in a trial match.

All-Australian U18 Will Gould returns from SA AFL Academy duty to be named in the centre square despite holding down full back for the early part of the season.

Two players will need to be trimmed from the Bays’ five-man extended interchange bench.

[Dutchy]

No one has kicked more than 10 goals against the Bays this season, they have the best defence in the league statistically.

Can't see that changing Saturday. Eagles forward line is certainly not high scoring this year.
Eagles side looks ok on paper but hasn't shown it can perform on the field. Bays to win and possibly end the finals chances of the Eags.

[holden78]

Going to watch closely if Eagles senior players can have a four quarter input/ voice
and not have pressure and purpose drop off.
You would think being bridesmaids for years would make these guys hungry for it
but apparently not
Wouldn’t be any different with old coach still there cos game style is basically the same.
Time to stop masquerading as a threat to win it and get serious.

[locky801]

Bays 38 point up at half time

[wedgetail]

Bays finals bound, Eagles spoon bound on that performance. Completely outplayed. Roles from the past 6 years reversed.

Think North have the spoon well and truly in their hands

[am Bays]

Did we sing the song on the oval post game like last time?

[Spargo]

Right now, Jesse White is our most important player.
His game today was outstanding.

[stampy]

and mcbean is our most vulnerable, cant take a mark to same himself most the game

hasnt been worth a crumpet since

[holden78]

With a third of the season now over, Oval ave may well be the most compelling story in
the SANFL . Here’s 6 reasons why!
Sam Lonergan seems to be way out of his depth and looks to have failed to make a genuine
connection with the Eagles players.
Losing Paul Stewart is a significant loss, but the Eagles have become the worst team in the
League despite adding 3 genuine quality mids that were desperately needed and kept the
rest of their players ( Borholm aside ).
The players look confused/ numb by information overload or no confidence in the people
delivering the instructions.
So many good League players on mass looking so poor so quickly cannot be ignored anymore.
After a solid career to be proud of, the co-captain Guiffreda is past it and it’s embarrassing
at the moment when his opponents get to make him look that way.
When the current Best and Fairest gets dropped after being in the best players the previous
week, you’ve officially hit rock bottom unless you’re still kidding yourself that the last flag
wasn’t so long ago

[Brett]

Makes you wonder why the current B&F gets dropped if in the best the week before.

Changing a coach can take time for players to understand it etc . However you did play a premiership favourite at this stage .
