Preview Changes for QF v Collingwood

[twinkletoes#17]

It seemed the consensus was a Thursday night final for us - even Simpson was sure it would be Thursday - turns out the AFL have their own ideas.

Is saturday better or worse for us?

It does give the Pies the chance of playing their injured players in the VFL during the Bye and still come back in for a Sat game

same for us with JK (not that I think he would need a run before)

 

[GWeagles]

Much better if we win. Otherwise a long break to the preliminary

 

[Seadog]

Anyone know when tickets are likely to go on sale, Tuesday?

 

[Biggie]

We’ll blow me down.

Eddie probably spoke with Gil.

Saturday night it is, what a blockbuster.

WCE by 28

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Tuesday 9am for members.

 

[Bigf00tyz]

I wasn't keen on Thursday night but now I think Sat night is designed to give injured Pie players extra time. Jesus don't tell me I've become one of those conspiracy types.

My thoughts exactly - i mean even Simpson was sure it would be Thursday

Won’t matter. We’re here to win the thing. If we can’t beat a moderate strength Pies with those two back at home, there’s no chance in hell we’re taking down Richmond.

A few positive comments early this week, but there is the ep we know and love

Oh, shut up.

People saying Duggan should be dropped have lost the plot. We need our toughest players at our disposal in September. Duggo is built for finals footy

He's still only 21 and brings so many good attributes to the team. Really surprised at the amount of hate he's getting at the moment.

 

[Biggie]

Oh, shut up.

Howe is a spud, JK & JD will towel him up.

Treloar will turn the ball over numerous times, especially in a finals atmosphere. No game time leading in. Cooked by the 3rd.

Good ins for WC.

Playing on my birthday. It's either going to be the best birthday ever or most depressing.

Actually no 2016 was depressing when we lost to the dogs on the 8th sept.

Lol at the Herald Sun
Some glaring errors in this
The 2016 Sydney Derby was at ANZ , and thankfully our game doesn’t start at 4.10pm local time!

I just heard Simmo is planning on playing McInnes in the forward pocket as a backup backup ruck, should still be ok though.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

In: Jetta / Kennedy
Out: Schofield/TB and Allen

No way we need the extra tall for the pies

Only way we keep all three is if Vardy goes out

Although I think De Goey gave him a bath last time and Sheppard then took him and did better.

Yep - de goey had him on toast - shepp went to him halfway through the second and only conceded one goal thereafter

Schofield tried to play him from behind and got torched

Richmond v Hawthorn on Thursday? Time to visit the Tigers and Hawks boards for the melts I thought I could see here.

I remember the last time when I was super confident in smashing a lesser opponent in a final (Bulldogs EF, 2016). Then again it’s a new side with a new gameplan, and no Mitch Brown to be a late in.

i agree, if you have tix i'll take them off your hands for you

just so you dont have to witness the bloodbath

Howe was going to play regardless.
