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

[StCicatriz]

Ratts has BIG wraps for Owens. I wonder which player he’s been following around and challenging physically? A clone of Jack Steele perhaps?

i'd say steele. he kind of alluded to it pretty strongly

 

[BrutThough]

Pretty happy with the side given who is unavailable.

Based off the Essendon game, Owens has replaced Clark and Kent has replaced Billings. Guessing Long will be the sub.

I dont mind Kent up forward - he's a big body, is a decent kick inside 50, has speed and might allow Gresh to spend some more time in the middle.

 

[StCicatriz]

this is the type of game where Kent will kick 4.14

 

[StCicatriz]

even better than debut announcements are the videos where they call their loved ones

hahaha this is gold "you know mum doesn't like calling her at work"

next minute calls mum and video cuts away after the standard hellos.

"so what the **** are you calling me about. this better be ****in good"
"mum they're filming!!!!"

 

[prophetic1]

I’ll say it now. No Sharman no Saints. Lost this game at the selection table again.

Your a SASAINT...gotta keep the faith! but yeah its sad that he aint in!

 

[Mowman]

Lets hope Kents is this years DMac of last year

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Lets hope Kents is this years DMac of last year

It would make me believe in selection integrity again.

 

[StCicatriz]

can you imagine benny cousins debut phone home video...

ben proudly punches in the number and sits back:
"BEEEENNNNYYYYYY"
"how are ya!!!!"
"what's up"
"you reckon i can get an 8ball, i'm debuting this weekend!!!!! anyways i gotta go call the olds now"

 

[Munga]

Hehe that's awesome. Good luck with the tickets, they might have to sneak in via the car boot!

Can’t wait for Owens to barge through the middle and nail a kick inside 50 only for it to bounce off Kent’s chest

 

[Munga]

Why no Sharman? He must've lost a leg, the only reason I can think of.
The melts won't stop and can't be reversed.....

maybe sharman hasn't lost any form but Kent has elevated his game THAT much.

Nah, he'll kick it over Kent's head for a goal.

As long as its not Hanneberry.

Word is he dropped off a little bit after the Carlton trial.
Needs to work.on a few things. Kid has some absolute talent but has been in the AFL system less than a year.
I am willing to let him work on his game. He is there or thereabouts and will get a go this season.

 

[Captain Paddy]

Is Bytel hurt? Really like what he’s showed so far and thought he was pretty stiff to be behind Dunstan last year.

We need to get games into him soon to see if he can help. Looks like the perfect help for Steele in the middle.

I like Sharman a lot but was a bit disappointed in his appearance this year.
Needed to hit the gym and weights over summer and didn't seem to have done so.

Coming off an injury so probably underdone.

Didn't stop him kicking 10 .4 and taking 19 marks at the end of last year, not every players needs to be Arnie like

Can take 3 to 4 pre season to build the body up, I'm sure they had him in the gym

 

[pebblesofsand]

Looks like we've picked a first round team based on pre season form - shocking!!!

Great moment for Hayes, imagine how he must feel after thinking he'd probably missed his chance.

As for Mitchito, I've got a very good feeling about him.

Sorry to disagree but Coops needed to get on the man shakes, beers and the burgers over the summer. Ratts has set the example.

Ratten said himself he didn't want him to put on too much weight at once.

He put on 3kg, I think if he can do that every year for 3 or so years he has done well.

He doesn't have to be a monster though

 

[botts]

Lets hope Kents is this years DMac of last year

He got heaps of it in our intro club. Could of kicked 5 if he kicked straight. Just need him to do exactly that
