Game Day NAB R1 v Geelong @SS, Wed Feb 12 7.10pm

[blaze036]

This was some interesting news out of tonight's AGM. We will six new faces in the B&W tomorrow for our NAB opener against Geelong.

Who do you think they will be?

Marsh Langford Freeman Broomhead Ramsay White Armstrong Adams are the 8 I think

 

[Bard]

So pumped to see them all, Freeman in particular. All aboard the Freeman bandwagon.

Is it 6 or 8?

I am so psyched to see Taylor Adams rattle someone's teeth out with a massive tackle for the first time in black and white! I have a feeling that man is going to be universally loved by the pie faithful.

 

[MeisterBot]

Cannot wait to see what Sweeps can do.

Freeman too, I was not keen on him when we first drafted him but have been really impressed by his pre-season preparation.

We're going to get so excited seeing the recruits play tomorrow night, probably see Freeman get 40 possies and 10 goals, and then we're going to all think "hey, it can't get better than this", then BOOM SCHARENBERG MID-SEASON 3 BROWNLOW VOTE DEBUT.

It's pretty much fait accompli.

 

[MagpieBat]

Would love to see Ramsay and Broomhead start on the half back line, show what they can offer by foot on the rebound and whether they can account for an opponent down there.

And of course, Marsh is a such enigmatic prospect that you just can't help but want to get a look at, see what he brings to the table.

 

[Quicky]

Is it 6 or 8?

I quoted 6 from the AGM thread. Seems I was wrong and all the new faces are known. Exciting to see the new faces. Now to find somewhere to watch it tomorrow night!

Anyone outside of Australia can watch on http://watchafl.afl.com.au/ for free.

I am almost certain that both of these things ABSOLUTELY WILL HAPPEN!!!

 

[Babylove]

It should be a good night. All our national draft selections except Scharneberg will be playing and all our new recruits from the trade period this year except for Karnezis will also be playing. We'll also get our first real look at Clint Young who looks like he might be playing injury free for the first time since joining the Pies.

It'll be great to get a good look at them; or in my case listen. I don't have foxtel so will have to settle for listening to it on the radio.

It's gameday mo fo's

 

[Kirby]

I find it hard to be confident of a win playing at their dung heap. That's a tough ground to play on as a visitor.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

God I"m so fricking excited about tonight.

Yeah, I don' texpect a win (would be nice) but man I just want to watch FOOTY again!!! Hanging to see the kids.

 

[Frankie23]

If I see some glimpses of efficient ball movement/gameplan, a few highlights from the kids and no injuries I'll be stoked, after all it is still February!

 

[THATSGOLD]

Freeman 40 touches is the par then.

 

[MegaBob]

We're baaaaaaaaaaaaaack. Good thing too, I was going crazy without footy to watch.

I might have spent a lot of time watching Fox Footy replays the last couple of weeks.

 

[Bloben]

I'm not really fussed if we win or not, I just want to see glimpses that our new personnel and structures etc. look like they work... And no ****ing injuries

 

[mattys123]

I love the excitement leading up to the first NAB match each year, only for it to die down after about 10 minutes of actual game time when you see it really is just a practice match.

Still, footy's back, only a few hours to go now, 6.30pm (coverage start) can't come quick enough.

I want to be on the clock you're on

If it's your life clock, not so much

Hey it's been 158 days since we last played (in a very forgettable game) so to me 8 hours or so is a "few hours".
