Would like to see Giles debut. Heard both Judd/Curnow 50/50 to resume.
Scotland for Robbo, and Giles for Tuohy will do me.
Pfft
Giles hasn't earned it
Games are handed out as gifts
Bell for Robbo so long as he's fit
Giles for Touhy makes no sense
Ones tall the others small
Please, in your completely unqualified opinion - please let me know qualification you base your opinions on Giles not having "earnt it" on? Watched any VFL at all? Guessing not, as you won't answer my questions on your numerous "assessments" of Temay.
Makes sense as Adelaide's forward line is quite tall. Jenkins, Walker, Pods. Eddie's record against bigger defenders - Dale Morris, Harry O, Chaplin is pretty ordinary also.
Without bringing in the extra tall, you either rob us of forward structure by playing Hendo back, or run out of the backline by either playing Walker as the third tall (which he's not really that good at) or Buckley in a lockdown role on Betts.
I'd let Giles run with Pods up the ground, don't let him be that floating tall down back as he can be, and he's not going to get isolated up the ground on Jenkins.
But you just saw the username and threw a wild haymaker didn't you

Haven't seen Giles myself however according to some of the posts I read he looks promising yet has been beaten by his opponent. I may presume he still a bit loose in his marking. I am all for playing kids given we need to restart our campaign however I don't see the merit in playing the kid against the likes of Pods who is capable of doing damage and in a game where we have half a chance. Watson and McInnes should be ahead of him imo.
