Game Day Opening Round vs. GWS, Giants Stadium, 7:30pm Sat 09/03

[memoryofmchale]

Your last sentence is a bit rich given the way you’ve gushed over Allan for the past 12 months.
And nah, he didn’t slip in the last game, he was among the players outside the 22 pushing for a spot, and arguably had the toughest job given we have a healthy midfield and there were spots for grab in both defence and forward due to injuries. Dean made a successful push, Fin didn’t make it despite being pretty much the best performed mid on ground in the short time he was given. If Pendles hadn’t gotten up I’m almost certain Fin would have been playing this week, but it wasn’t to be so he bides his time again.

Any of the assistants and staff all talk about Fin highly. He’s unlucky but he will play soon enough.

If they had those sorts of reservations I doubt they’d have been talking him up they way they did over the offseason. I agree he’s unlikely to suddenly turn in to a star, but from what I’ve seen he should be able to become a solid footsoldier at AFL level. Certainly the idea that he’s “Callum Brown lite” that someone else suggested is pretty unfair. He showed enough in his preseason games to make me confident enough that he’s got much more potential than that.

If you’re at training and get the opportunity to, have a chat with a coach about Fin. They will not be telling you he’s destined for a delisting at the end of the year.

How good is game day!

I've been sick and tired of the Giants trying to force this rivalry, and trying hard to be online trolls with their social media antics.

Tonight we will show why were are the reigning premiers, and why we are the best travelling side in the league.

Collingwood will win today by 22 points but Jesus Hogan will kick 6 goals. Viva Eddie McGuire

Had a lovely surprise on my walk to Coogee just now. In front of me no other than Pendles and Cameron. Yelled out Go Pies and shook their hands.

So the towels I saw them clutching at the hotel were for the beach.

 

[FireKrakouer]

In honor of the Gimp, I'm swapping the summer thongs for leather soled monkstraps and the acqua di Gio for YSL la nuit de l'homme.

If we lose this game, I'll eat pubes.

If we f lose this shit re, I'm gonna spray "I Carlton" onto my lawn using roundup... that's it for me man... I've had it!

(Anyone on the booze today, pour one out for Gimpos the great. May all your cards be live and your pots be monsters)

Compensated by seeing Bruzzy and Leggy in the foyer about an hour ago. Mr Park wanted to know what was that ‘thing’ growing on Oleg’s face. Philistine.

has it taken off?

 

[Mollythedolly]

I am surprised.

Ranked 6th in the team for tackles/game last year at just under 4, 5th if you discount Macrae’s 1 game 8 tackle effort. Those above him all midfielders. Ranked 22nd league wide for forwards with quite a few of those above him also getting midfield rotations like Adams, Macrae (WB), and Crisp.

 

[Mollythedolly]

I’m in Sydney for family reasons, and not going to the game.

But unbelievably we seem to have landed in the same hotel as the Pies. Cameron (in white crocs), Pendles, Lippa and Cox (did you know he’s very tall) were just now in the foyer.

Despite my heart rate going up, I left them alone and got in the lift with two young women. They were wondering if they’d just seen some ‘basketball players’. I set them right.

Did you mention there’s a rumour Pendles might have played basketball?

I’m leaving on a jet plane
To watch the Pies win again
Oh babe, I love to go …

One too many syllables in line 3.

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

I reckon we'll win. I think we'll know pretty early too. Barring an early onslaught, I believe in all our boys across the park.

Contain Greene and we'll smash their spleen.


UP THA ****EN PIES!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Fat Jesus]

Pies by 7 points.
I was watching teh clouds yesterday.
#7's everywhere in the sky.
Josh should have a big one.

 

[Doc1763]

Pies by 7 points.

your predicting a blow out?

 

[stormskye]

Keep Greene to 2 goals or less and we will win.

With the form of the giants this is up there with playing bris at the Gabba.

Tough game.
