The Gary Ablett Thread

[batt]

Yeah Shiel played a more defensive role on the weekend and is good in and under so I wouldn't be surprised if he gets the job.

First of all, GAJ has to pass that flaming fitness test!

prestia will tag ward, shiel to ablett with mcdonald going swallow.

Hopefully more like 200+ against the giants!

Dont think it will matter that its against the giants. He will still have a quality tagger on him, probably Cal ward.
But still would expect 130+

Ahhh no! Cal Ward will be the one getting tagged himself, Mcdonald or bugg will tag Ablett, probaby Mcdonald.

I just cant see either mcdonald or bugg being able to run with him. Cal ward would surely be there best option?

Cal wont tag. Id be mor inclined to think they will let him run free and tag someone like swallow who is actually taggable.

If they choose to tag him, i think bugg or shiel can go with him.

Ward used to do some great shut down roles at the bulldogs so why would he not be the right man for the job?
You honestly think shiel or bugg could keep up with gaz? Not a chance.
I know its really a case of tagging the untaggable man but I think ward is the only one that could do it and actually make ablett have to be accountable going the other way..
All this said i hope ablett just plays. Would really hurt those that traded him last week and cant get him back

Do you think they will apply a tag to Bennell after last week??

Whether you traded him or kept him, be comfortable with your decision.  It's all personal choice.  There are no right and wrong answers here.

He might score 160.   He might score 110.  He might get subbed with a score of 45.  Nobody knows.

Anyone who traded him will have the opportunity to get him back into their side when they see fit.  In the meantime they probably got pendles or murphy or jpk into their side aswell as another upgrade somewhere else, but to say that people who traded him out are going to regret it when he scores 150 or 200, this is just pointless banter.

Lets just wait and see when he plays and what he scores, but just be comfortable with your own decision, because at this stage, no one knows what will happen from here.  If anyone can predict the future and thinks they know what Ablett will score, then maybe you can provide us all with the tattslotto numbers this week aswell, and while your at it, maybe the quaddie on race day.
