That is an obvious statement, but some people take a little banter as trolling.

Some supporters are a little too precious about reading an opposition supporters comments on their board.

Anyway, hopefully we can break our duck egg at Adelaide oval and take home the win.
Considering we've poached two Dockers players, there should be a little spice in this game.

Obvious to some but when they brag about trolling on our Board on their own Board, it’s trolling!

Hearing Crippa just had his little baby girl

Great news!

Mum and Koda ….looking happy.

So I assume Cripps is good to go to Adelaide??

Boring, but we're not exactly flush with options

Every season...

Fantasia has been named in the 18. Looks like the sub will be one of Durdin, Owies, Cottrell, Boyd or Carroll.

Probably Durdin or Owies, seems those two and Fantasia are still building fitness.

Gotta feeling it may be Durds. He missed a fair chunk of the preseason, faded last week so possibly easing him back into the fold.
With no VFL this week again, I reckon we want to at least get minutes into him rather than sit out a week.

 

[skadoosh]

No surprises with Kemp for Marchy.

Blues by 36.

This makes sense, Fantasia felt like his game style suited a sub more than Durds.

 

[HyphensBack]

Let’s hope someone has a word to Jack Carroll and says let’s put it to our forwards advantage (nice if it was out in front every now and then)

This is not what I want to hear
“It definitely is a good feeling as a mid knowing that you can just bomb it down there and Harry or Charlie will mark it – it’s a dream come true for a midfielder”

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Fantasia looked sharper last week -- wouldn't surprise if the heavy training block then Brisbane (heat humidity) into Richmond flattened him as he hasn't played this level for a long time

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Good.

[WalshistheGOAT]

Hoping Orazio has just been building towards full fitness these last few rounds and is ready to explode. Playing in his home town on a ground he's done some damage on before. 3-4 goals from him would be delicious.

Carroll in his first 2024 game against Brisbane(probably his best game for us) seemed to slam it on to his boot on many occasions, and nearly all of them miraculously ended up with a Carlton team mate.
Great highlights, but was there an element of luck involved?

I thought Dow looked consistently better last year with his burst and quick hands from the guts.
Only time will tell whether the packet of Twisties we received for that trade was good management.

Yes?

I would rather see someone like Cincotta as sub. I just don't think the likes of Durds, Raz or Owies gives us that much flexibility if we loose a soldier early in the game.

Think it's great oppo supporters contribute to these preview discussions

I had a look at the Freo board. They are debating which of the WA private schools costs more.

I would run to an oppo board as well.
