Durdin can play both ends, if needed…

Yeah, found it interesting that he started forward last week in the VFL

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Haven’t had a chance to watch last week’s game atm, only caught most the last half live…
How did he go forward last week Arrow?

 

[Blue Chip Pass]

I would love to see us execute the same game style, pressure and contested play.
And just put in a clinical 6 goal win.
I think we have stamped our credentials, another win and opposition supporters will start getting a little more nervous.
I am loving being a Blues supporter right now.
I can feel something very special heading into finals.
With many of our big guns to come back in.
Just soak in the joy Blues fans and dare to dream.
We owe this mob a smack in the mouth.

Presented well, wasn't beaten as such, but more a defender than forward at VFL level

With better movement and delivery at AFL level, could surprise as a forward

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Could one of you kind souls please send me the link to purchase GA tickets for Sunday? I can’t get there for some reason. Is there no GA?

Yeah with the rise up in class at the next level has the smarts to be more productive, he was predominately known as a KPD during his draft years with the ability to swing back as a forward option, think he is more than capable of playing a role forward for us if needed…

 

[Wickzki]

Let's go Fisher.

4 quarters of sustained effort and intensity. Make every post a winner and he has every chance of turning his entire season around when it matters most.

Has the ability. Just get after it lad

Could it be sold out?

Now the with the way we have been playing with a better balanced total system that also requires & demands a full effort and pressure, he’ll need raise the bar in these areas so he can play his role more efficiently for the team…
Another player that has so much offensively going for him but like a few others he’s lacked in the past…
Hoping he goes well…

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Could it be sold out?

Yeah I've given up and just upgraded to two reserve seats hehe

 

[djholmes]

Nope Cotts starts.

Think Fish may be done

Funny since Fisher is starting on the wing.

 

[thylacine60]

Funny since Fisher is starting on the wing.

16 years of trying and reckons he may have finally landed one.

 

[Blue Reaper]

My Friday night preparation for this round… rewatch the Pies match.

Seeing if we can win by 50 points this time round….

 

[myblueroan]

Yeah I've given up and just upgraded to two reserve seats hehe

Nice!

 

[Jucman]

Is it better for the Tigers to win or the Dogs tonight?

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Hopefully all the sides sitting just outside the eight this week are all knocked over, helps our chances over over the last 4 rounds..

 

[norway blue]

Is it better for the Tigers to win or the Dogs tonight?

That’s what I’m thinking.

[Blue Reaper]

Hopefully fish applies genuine tackling intent. Not just stick an arm out.

A genuine opportunity for him to show he’s bought into the team’s intensity and selflessness. He was poor before being dropped but hope he grabs this chance and puts it all on the line.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Yeah, found it interesting that he started forward last week in the VFL

It makes sense. Harry and Jack on the side lines for the next few weeks.

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Is it better for the Tigers to win or the Dogs tonight?

Ideally, we want a draw. But **** that I hope the Tigers lose.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

 

[TJohn]

Worried about this game. Just hope We get it done and move on to Melbourne without any more injuries. Please.

 

[Keyza]

Worried about this game. Just hope We get it done and move on to Melbourne without any more injuries. Please.

I am too. For some reason we do not match up well against them and often struggle.

 

[Skull Face]

Is it better for the Tigers to win or the Dogs tonight?

Tigers would have been better as we have them well clear on % they would have had to win 4/4 to get to 13.5 to concern us with port in adelaide in the final round, dogs have hawks, wc, geelong to come so they are basically a lock for 13+ wins with this game tonight.

 

[Blue and Blue]

First time in a good team for Fish.
Exciting that.
