I must be dreaming. Round 8, versus Sydney, MCG.

Surely not?

Miracle!

Sydney reign of terror is over. We finally play them at the G

 

[FromTheBoundaryLine]

It’s a head scratcher. I’m no fan of Leppa, mainly due to an irrational lingering hatred of the Lions in the 2000s. But while our defence wobbled at the start of the season, he had it purring by the end. And this despite the loss of several defenders across the season.

Agree. I must admit the changes make me a little nervous. Probably a hangover from those Harvey/Sanderson days hence wondering if this is a pretty standard practice across the competition. Your hatred of the Lions of the 2000s is in no way irrational by the way.

Pendles has stood down as captain.

Been a great captain. I assume Moore is the best option pending health.

Shame, he deserved to go past Selwood's captaincy record.

Pity he won’t go out a Premiership Captain, love what he’s done.

No real surprise.
He'll still provide onfield leadership anyway.
Selwood was young when he was appointed captain, whereas we had a wonderful onfield leader in Nick Maxwell, so Pendles just kept playing great footy.

He can still go out a dual or better Premiership player.

McRae spent part of the off-season break undertaking professional development in the United Kingdom.
The 49-year-old travelled to London with his family, as well as assistant coach Hayden Skipworth and high performance manager Jarrod Wade, heading inside English Premier League giants Tottenham Hotspur and England's National Rugby Union set-up, learning off veteran international coach Eddie Jones.

Tottenham can't win silverware to save their life (always bottle it) and Harry Kane missed a penalty for England to drop out of the world cup. Hopefully Macrae doesn't bring any of that back with him.

Maybe it was a course on what not to do.

Miracle!

Typo?

Have heard Moore will be unlikely to play early in the season. Hopefully Dean and Frampton can come into the side...

The club expects he'll be full training after christmas.

I'm not worried.

Just what I was told. Hope it isn't correct.

Time will tell I guess.

Yeah, we'll see how he is after christmas when he returns.

I certainly hope not, first 4 games against geel, port, rich and bris without Moore. All teams with big talented KPF’s. Could seriously impact the season.
