NAB cup 2015

[dajesmac]

Makes sense to have the older guys in the best 22 play the hone game and well will probably send the kids to Adelaide. Will be interesting to see what happens with naitanui.

Wonder why there hasn't been Cavka or Adamson. One seems to have earned a preseason game while the latter should be eased into competitive football sooner rather than later.

Lamb Sandwich has another chance to be the X factor and win us the game again. You heard it here first fellas.

Slow roasted... with some mint sauce, that's the way he goes about his business on the field.

Would you say it would be season over?

Yeah we're gone

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Would just be happy to bank a win and move on. Think Nelson is off to a good start looking forward to seeing him and Lamb and Karps running around.

Am I the only one that wants to scrape a 1 point victory just to read the meltdowns on here

Yes...

We could win by 10 goals and there'd still be posters melting on here

No need to cut it so fine

Score completely irrelevant.
This is all about getting through each game with 0 injuries.

But would also like to see the real working of Simpsons formula and how we adjust if they start to flood or get a run on.
Ball movement will be important, but as it'll be the first game of the season for a lot of them, I expect we'll see a few missed targets.
Just be good to see us try to use the ball a bit better going into the 50 and see how quickly we can transition from backline to the forwards. Most of the prime movers are in the team, even if they're only on the ground for a few minutes together it'd be good to see how the team plays.

Full Nelson, Half Nelson, semi Nelson?

I'm with you Prem. Nelson is becoming a firm favourite with me!

Not everyone knows what a Nelson is but by the excitement is it full ?

 

[boondy]

Finally get to see Karps. Hopefully isn't a sub

Karps as the sub . would be bland .

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

I'm looking forward to the game plan taking effect in regards to players knowing where to run . So often in the first half of last season our ball carrier had zero options and was forced to revert back to kicking long to a contest . By seasons end our ball movement was much cleaner , faster and more options were available .
I'm hoping this evolution of ball and player movement to be evident after another pre season .

ps...i dont really know how i have done 5 posts already :-/

Nz has foxtel

 

[boondy]

[Doughboy]

Assuming it will be telecast on Foxtel?

Carlton and Fremantle games will be on Fox, but Port game isn't being telecast.

 

[Beutbrute]

Just had a look at Carltons team for Friday down here in Mandurah and if we don't pump them by 100+ points then something is seriously wrong, the only decent player in their list is Simpson the rest are nobodies.

But wouldn't that just reinforce the belief that we are flat track bullies?

 

[Dark Sharks]

That belief will always be there until we can actually start challenging top 8 teams.

Or start loosing to lower placed teams...l prefer your way

Because we....
























are ?

 

[Double the Fist]

I'm just happy that Sharrod and his man-bun will be making an appearance <3

I thought Schofield had the man bun?

Either way, cut the ****in thing off! Next he'll grow a beard!

 

[Suma Magic]

I think that Lamb and Ellis will be the subs.

Probably Butler and Tunbridge to miss. And one more. Maybe Hill or Karpany.

That Basil fellow was on radio this morning saying that NicNat isn't playing because of a back injury...haven't heard it elsewhere or seen it reported though.
