I'll pick the Giants one more time. GWS by 17 points

Is Taylor back for this game?

Blues will blow us away, we always seem to give a team a quarter to do it and Carlton will take advantage.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

I think this game and the Pies game are our two biggest tests for the rest of H&A.
Not discounting the Port game, but I feel a little more confident with that being at Marvel, and not saying that we won't necessarily lose one of the others against the lower teams that we shouldn't. Anything's possible this year.

I don't know which way to lean for this one. I have confidence in our team, but GWS are still a good side, despite some dodgy results of late.
I think it will be close and could go either way.

 

[Gw2_James]

Pretty sure we'll lose this one. I'm okay with that, cant win them all.

 

[YeoShuey]

Blues by 5.

It will be close thanks to the witches hats from last game that will get us off our guard for this one. I still think we will prevail.

 

[Jeremias]

Interesting. I am not as confident.

Yes we are going beautifully at the moment. Very happy with what I am seeing, it's hard not to be impressed. But I am also realistic and expect us to drop points at the back end of the season.

GWS are not playing well but I have a lot of respect for the club and am still a believer in their quality under Kingsley. They have more than enough quality to turn things around.

It would not surprise me at all should this be the game that reignites your season.

 

[KnaveyBlue]

Looks like it's gonna rain all weekend in Sydney which will somewhat nullify McKay/DeKoning/Charlie. The scoreline against the Tiges probably belies what a wet-weather slog the game actually was, and I imagine there's gonna be some sore bodies, or a few who don't come up.

GWS are also much better than they've been showing, and will be desperate not to lose touch with the Top 8.

GWS by 22.

You mustn’t of watched us this past month and a bit.

I have. It hasn't been pretty.

I do know though that form is temporary so I'm expecting the Giants to turn things around at some stage. To what extent remains to be seen.

Taylor out is big obviously, and Kelly now out for a while is huge. He always kills us.

We'll see. Carlton may well win this, I'm just saying it won't be a huge surprise to me if they don't.

 

[_Mike_]

Surprising but I haven’t been able to watch much footy as of the last 2-3 rounds. Still possible to make the 8 but Haynes and Taylor outs have caused some issues with the GWS backline

Kelly out again makes it worse.
Cogs still not 100%.
I think, like 2016, last year might of been our shot.

 

[The King!]

Watched GWS the last two, they are cooked. Blues by 10-12 goals

 

[NetworkNerd]

Blues wont lose a game for the rest of the H&A Season.

Blues by 46 points
