HYPE HAS RECOMMENCED

LETS ****ING GOOOOO

 

[murphster]

We will be faster than Richmond. Apparently fitter too according to barass70 soldo and nankervis (who hasn’t played a minute of footy over preseason) v Kruezer and Casboult. I’d back our ruck division in easily.

I want to see JSOS go to Martin. Now that he’s got fyfe’s number it would be great to see that. Plus Ed will go to Cotchin. He always goes missing v us (particularly with the Ed tag).

What does everyone think about Willo Dow O’Brien Kennedy missing. What do they do now. God do they get back in without injury occurring. No VFL. Hard to push a player out from that team. I’d say Mckay and Betts come in for Newnes and Cuningham. Interesting few weeks coming up for those two in the squad as if they don’t perform they’re out real quick. There is lots of depth waiting in the wings but good performances will keep them out.

Dow is playing, Martin takes Kennedy’s spot, Newnes taking Obi4s spot for now not sure for how long and Newman has that spot based on last years form over Willo who has barely played in 2 years, not sure how they get back in I guess bad form from the incumbents rather than good form of the ones on the outer will be the deciding factor along with track work form.

So we're on then.

I do wonder who got a gig for Betts.

Plus hate seeing JSOS and Gibbons named up forward.

But the right players are named.

[Elmer_Hauser]

I can't help but think the decision was made hours ago, but the AFL wanted to milk it for as long as possible to draw out the tension and drama and make people crave footy..

Feel like we have been manipulated, and I do not like that one bit.

Having said that, GO BAGGERS !!!

 

[DIG]

Giddy up!

We are on ! Yeah for an absolute flogging
I honestly can't see us scoring against there backline. I will be going in just hopeful that we are at least competitive

 

[Kramer1]

Next to no chance we play and we should be thankful for that. Nothing to gain going in under manned.

Well...this and that two weeks I wore Crocs. Twice I've been wrong now...

What a joke.
Happy they're playing, but if it's not proper games, why bother?

 

[jooce8891]

[Tony Lynn 15]

16 and a half minute quarters plus time on. According to Blue Abroad.

Will that mean we start leaking goals at the 20th minute instead of 26th minute?

 

[Accidental genius]

well we said we would get flogged plenty of times last year when teague took over when we had plenty of players missing and we still won some and we were ok in most other games. I think we will go alright.

Yeah my bad. Missed that. But the issue in my post is still there. Glad you agree. Tough for someone like Willo to get in unless either the year is done or injury. Take into account the potential shorter season. We may still not see Willo in 2020. We probably won’t see Charlie at all now. But that’s okay. I think 2020 will always have an * on it.
