#WALSH100

 

[Soapy V]

I find it hard to believe we would even bother testing Cerra if it was hamstring tightness. With his history you'd think any sign of tightness and he'd be an automatic out?

I don't think it's very bad at all

 

[passmark]

I think the trend for us this year will be close games with maybe Norf and WCE the exception.

A good win will probably look like 18-24 points and that of course will only come after being behind at half time.

 

[1970crow]

But but we are going to be confronted by the dynamism of a Laird/Crouch midfield combo

No doubt your boys have been sleeping with the lights on all week. I can imagine your video meeting, “why are we watching these guys in slow-mo?” “What?”

I actually feel like your mob could click and show us some of the 2023 form.

Historically, the more we need to win, the more defensive we play. Once levelling the ledger is clearly beyond us, we might open up. But unlikely yet.

According to this book, he'll probably miss as a precautionary measure.

Dumplings with dad in Chinatown…then it’s game on.
Go blues!!!!!!

 

[Sinjin Smith]

Hearing Cerra is out? Big loss if true.

 

[Ald Gardiner]

With serious games approaching versus contenders, we really need to play ourselves into decent form today.

Good to see Walsh back, we played our best footy when he clicked into gear after Bombers shocker last year, so managing my expectations for this and next few games

Pfft - in the old days it was bread and dripping at the Sarah Sands with a lemon squash - then on to the game.

Play Walsh

 

[Accidental genius]

Without fog our other smalls need to bring the heat on and lock the ball in our f50…..when Charlie and H don’t mark and goal that is

Should be a good win for us. There is really no excuses to drop this game.

Where is this coming from?

So from last week basically:

• Walsh for Cerra
• TdK for Fog: Kennedy to take Fogs midfield minutes and TDK replacing - Kennedy forward
• Owies for Carroll

Far from our best team with multiple midfielders and Martin and JSOS out for the third tall role but should be good enough.

Stretch their backline with TDK, Charlie and Harry now.

Also saves Harry from rucking
