Preview Round 1, 2022: St.Kilda v Collingwood - Marvel Stadium, Friday 18th March, 7:50PM AEDT

[George]

I know it's a little while away but getting this up now for admin.

First game of the year, we need to get off to a good start. Hopefully no injuries in the lead up.

36 days away!

 

[hayes]

Surely it’s time for the autopsy thread?

dAnGeR gAmE.

Surely it’s time for the autopsy thread?

The autopsy report I'd like to see ...

"The victim (Collingwood FC) suffered a savage, ultimately fatal (to their finals chances) beating at the hands of a brutal, and possibly deranged pack of assailants, numbering at least 18, but possibly 22 or 23 ..."

 

[Munga]

Did we ever find out how De Goey was allowed to travel OS when he did? I'm sure on whatever form he filled out it he didn't write, "To get sh*tfaced, shirtless, and be a sh*thead".

Sponsored "business trip" with Monster Energy.

 

[Hubnester]

I've made plans to be there and it may be the only game I can get to all year this year.
Fingers crossed!

 

[George]

3 days before I have to go to Sydney, was hoping I wouldn't miss it. Can't wait to have a few beers at the footy again

 

[Diehard Saint]

We just HAVE to win this game.
I really need bragging rights over my brother-in -law early on in the season.

 

[sammm]

If Buckley was still coach . We would romp itin. New coach, new way of playing, team trying to prove something. No idea who will win.

 

[Minga]

Pies won’t have Roughead in defence round 1.

Rough news: Key Pie to miss start of season

 

[11men1cup]

I am ****ing ITCHING for the season to start. We have to right the wrongs of last year. And it starts with King setting up his maiden Coleman year with a bag of 6.

Big loss for them. Presumably would have played on Max, assuming he plays.

Yep - I assume Moore will play though.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

If we win: Ratts is a god.
If we lose: Sack Ratts!

Paton hopes we don't either.

[Armitage2Riewoldt]

How many games have we all been to in the last two years?

Think I only made it to 4 last year and obviously 2020 was 0 for most Victorians.

Verrry keen to get back. Should be a sell out too.

I'm pretty sure I did every single home game we were allowed to + maybe one or two MCG games and then the bushfire state of origin.

 

[SaintKing23]

First round can produce strange results but there's no reason we don't win by 25+

 

[mad-saint-guy]

Thought I'd have a stab the most likely round one lineup given what we know from the pre season so far:

B: Paton, Howard, Wilkie
HB: Hill, Battle, Sinclair
C: Clark, Steele, Billings
HF: Higgins, Marshall, Gresham
F: Butler, King, Membrey

Foll: Ryder, Crouch, Jones
Int: Hannebery, Ross, Sharman, Webster

On the cusp: Highmore, Byrnes, McKenzie, Wood, Geary, Hayes, Long, Bytel

Battle definitely looks likely to start the year but ill be surprised if Highmore doesn't also get picked.

Going on pre-season form, wouldn’t be surprised if Byrnes was in the team. He’s been flying. Maybe it’s between him and Ross for a spot?
