A Saturday afternoon game and the Footy Park surface was like a rice paddy field. It was a slogfest from the start and never improved. The only thing that came out of that game was how much better Richmond were to us in those conditions.

Very handy win that day. We were 4 and 6 at the time after winning our first 3. Lost an epic to the eventual premier north Melbourne 20.13 to 18.18 at the mcg the week before.
Just had to win, and they did and ended up going on a run to make our first afl final series with a 12 and 10 record.
I loved those early years.

This seems like one of those games where Ken outsmarts himself by going short because it's wet only for us to kick long to Richmond defenders and ruckman all night.

LONG BOMBS TO NANK LIKE IT'S THE LAST QUARTER OF THE 2020 PRELIM
Surely they announce a debut early in order to try and break the 25k crowd mark

Not going to happen. I think the changes will be rather vanilla.
In saying this; Visentini & Clurey deserve a game, if performances in the SANFL are to be rewarded. I doubt they slot Sinn straight back in (if fit), but I have been surprised in the past.
Lorenz (despite his debut), Anastopolous & Scully are a while away in my view. Haven't seen anything break-out from them.
Jackson is next in line now he's got a few games under his belt. Hoping we see his best performance this weekend to push selection. Boak might need to be managed soon.
OUT: Finlayson, Jones, Farrell
IN: MG, Rioli, Ratagolea
Scully is only playing SANFL because hes on Ports list. If he doesnt improve next year he'll be gone

Che Cockatoo-Collins soccerred the ball multiple times along the outer wing. That's all I remember.

Have to disagree. Looks like he has real potential. Also playing back up ruck and improving each game.
Why is this interesting?
It was a suggestion from Matthew Lobbe.
I remember being at that one. At least there was the win to compensate for the inevitable cold that game gave me. Unlike a similar downpour against North, back when we couldn't beat them. Getting sick from the footy (as opposed to these days sick of the footy) was tolerable only if we won.
Playing ruck minutes has veen good for him. Forces him to get on his bike, and has helped him both his fitness and his body work.
