No, they’ve only scheduled dates and times for the first bunch of games, it’s a floating fixture

Let’s hope he has a gd run with head injuries. 2020 was a Very unlucky year for the lad. Wishing him a gd one, he deserves it.

Big take away from that was his comment around 'He's (Nicks) big on people bringing their weapons'. Sounds like we're letting (and encouraging) our guys with some x-factor do their thang. Very non-Crowbot, which is ace.
Reckon this will be a fun year to watch
Hope he un****s Chayce!

Surely big footy could sponsor one...How do you go flying a drone with an onboard camera?

The Feats of Strength
Don't they usually do a stream of the trial match vs Port? IIRC they had Tom Rehn or someone like that commentating last year.

Interchangeable battery packs I think you'll find, least that's what one of my old mates in Pt.Augusta told me who has done a lot of drone work up at the top end of Spencer Gulf (Redbanks etc).

Rowie said pre-draft if he was the recruiter and it was a choice between Newchurch and his kid, he'd not be calling the name Rowe.
Need Neil Craig back in some capacity to stifle that. 22 replicants doing the exact same thing is the key to success. And if it's not, just focus more and work harder at doing the exact same thing.
With all the positivity about the club I think we are due the usual get ahead of ourselves prediction.
The showdown in round 8 is shaping as a classic and potentially our first loss for the season.
Rd 1 Geelong @ home - W (round 1 at home, we come out on fire)
Rd 2 Sydney @ Sydney W (lot of great young talent in Sydney, but still expected to be around us on the ladder)
Rd 3 GC @ home W (Good Friday game, we never lose on Good Friday)
Rd 4 North @ Marvel (it's North)
Rd 5 Freo @ home (doable)
Rd 6 Hawthorn @ Tas (they could finish bottom)
Rd 7 GWS @ home (they are going in the wrong direction)
From there the wins drop off, draw gets tougher, we win 1-3 more games for the rest of the season.

I'd even go as far to say we'll win at least 7 of the first 7 rounds. 7 is the low end of the prediction.
10-11 wins from the first 7 rounds the high end, 12+ is too much to ask at this stage of the rebuild.

Has there been a behind-the-scenes weights and conditioning room shake-up that i'm not aware off? So many players appear to be in ripping nick.
Even older guys like Tex, Crouch, Brown, Davis and Kelly look as if they're in career best physical condition! Matty Crouch seems to have found Scotty Thompsons secret arm workout regime tucked into that #5 locker as well

It certainly feels like there's been a change and the players have really come to embrace it. Which fills me with more confidence in Nicks then I had at any point last season.
They just got the clubs first ever wooden spoon. If that wasn't burning a hole in their ass i'd be very worried about them and we'd need the second rebuild in as many years.
Realistically, it wasn’t against Talia. McAsey I think?
Our defence will give up a lot of contested marks this year. A lot more than Tex will take.
Golumless
A bigger deal out west.
A fit Doedee will certainly prevent a lot of them.
That said we're vulnerable, but them the breaks if you want to develop kids.

I have no doubt that they were driven. But I think its more then just an increase in personal motivation. Something seems different! You just don't see such widespread improvement in conditioning in 1 offseason. Maybe in the 2-4 year players, but rarely from so many 5-10+ year players.
