Ah let them have their fun. If you dont think you are a chance first game of the season then it's time to go follow ping pong.

I hope they all think they will win. It makes for better reading/listening post game.

Nathan Brown was actually THAT good before he broke his leg.

I actually was given his biography once as a present

I read it until the chapter where he breaks his leg.

The opening paragraph is like (paraphrasing from memory)

RIchmond had won 7 games, and where 8th or 9th favorite to win the flag

Nathan brown was equal favorite to win the brownlow

Richo was favorite to win the coleman, with brown being in the top 10

I decided to stop reading and cry.

FYI, just posted this in the crowd prediction thread...

Will clear 90,000 easily... MCG have updated their General Admission seating section:

GENERAL ADMISSION SEATING AREAS
Great Southern Stand
Q1-Q3 (Rows P-DD)*

Ponsford Stand
Nil

Olympic Stand
Q51-Q55 (Rows AA-MM)*

*Available for pre-purchased general admission ticket holders and club members (subject to change).

So Ponsford stand is all sold out, 13 rows in 5 bays of the Olympic stand and 15 rows in 3 bays of the Southern stand are for PRE PURCHASED GEN ADMIN and GEN ADMIN MEMBERS only... ie: NO WALK UPS!

Houli completed the warm up with the main group at training on Tuesday at Punt Road Oval before the session was closed to media and looks a strong chance to take his place against the Blues.

how was prestia

 

[Lsta062]

how was prestia

Didn't see Prestia to be honest. He could have been out there but I just didn't spot him.

The most annoying thing about the "Jack Graham that is" is that Bruce clearly planned on using that line. Or he thought it up as a witty remark. Jack's kicked 3!!! Jack Graham that is!!.....but he's absolutely butchered it. It doesn't actually make sense without saying the Jack part first. And now it's kinda annoying me lol
