Game Day NMFC v Pies GDT

[ansonholt]

I was going to create a preview post, but the Collingwood thread has done a fantastic as they usually do:

http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threa...s-north-melbourne-matchday-discussion.995878/

A telling quote, however, which might underlay the Collingwood mindset in this game:

I believe the Collingwood depth is good enough to cover the loss of the two most critical outs, Ball and Thomas and come away with a much needed round one victory that will set up a classic round two match up against Carlton, and ex coach Mick Malthouse.

Disregarding the comment about their depth, you'd think there might be some "look ahead" on their behalf.

For us: the loss of Harvey and McMahon is critical, but we do have Adams, Wells and Grima, none of whom played in round 21 last year, and all of whom are in good form. Our triple towers are back, and we have another pre-season into our younger guys, with perhaps Cunnington ready to take the next step.

I think we're a real shot at this. Bring it on. Go Roos.

Does anyone know the ticketing situation, going with a friend that needs to buy a GA ticket and the ticketmaster website lists GA as 'not available right now' which is annoyingly ambiguous.

Quite often you'll find you can't get a ticket from the ticketmaster website on game day.

Truly a 50/50 game at this stage.
I hope we don't start 24-0 like in the round 21 game last year though.
Not good for the nerves!

Call the stadium.

Rumour of a rumour of a rumour that beams is out for the pies. Not super reliable but is doing the rounds on the pies board.
Anyone know anything?

 

[dUkezz]

anyone know of any streams online where the game can be seen?

 

[muttley45]

just had a wager on 1st goal kicker: $10 patch @ 21-1, $10 harper @ 26-1

I've got $5 on LT @ 13-1, $3 Basti @ 34-1

Goodluck!

 

[trevagreene]

Just got a tweet back from the club. GA still available.

 

[shinboner magic]

Very toey about game.

Should be a ripper of a game- hope both teams play their best.

Crowd should be near 50k

 

[Only Forwards]

Lets crank this shit up to 11.

 

[Higgins2Waite]

Just to build it up even more

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

Happy, excited, nervous and scared all at once.

Liam Anthony has about 6 scoring involvements in that clip, and boomer has 4-5.


I hope Anthony has a big game and rubs it in the face of all those who think he is on the edge. I don't think there is anyone (ba in our side who knows where to run and how to find the footy in space as well as him

 

[boneofshin]

So close I can taste it. Man this has been a long off-season!

 

[RHLK]

Looking forward to seeing Cunningham, playing on the half-forward flank according to WA's 'Sunday Times'......

 

[Flawed Genius]

Cunningham!

 

[Juryduty]

Very toey at the moment, but pumped for this big match. Here is hoping north can get a round 1 win, it sure has been a while.

 

[Winter]

Word from Heath is they closed the roof too late and it's quite slippery at Etihad.

Unlucky. LA the sub. Big show of faith in Jacobs.

 

[tazaa]

Poor sub selection for round 1. LAs run will be missed.

Stuck at a Easter lunch and tryna get to this one!! Car is blocked i wanna be outta here by 4

 

[trevagreene]

Slowly building up

 

[boneofshin]

The rumours are true! Dayne Beams is a late out

As a practising Satanist I don't have such concerns. :stern look
