Preview Round 1 2023 - v Western Bulldogs, Saturday 18 March, 7:25pm @ the MCG

[Toump Ass]

How's all these people writing off Ben Brown, may as well write off the season if everything is based on 2022

Fixed.

Mitch Hannan is my smokey for 3-4 snags tomorrow night.

Only snags he is getting is at his local Bunnings barbie.

Not tall enough to expose us.

I dont think enough has been made about McVee's debut, extraordinary from how far back hes come to be playing in round 1 2023. Seriously impressive.

Wed have all probably had the likes of Deakyn Smith ahead of him at the end of last year.

Yeah he was barely noticeable watching Casey last year. Good that he wasn't making any howlers, but also didn't see him do anything to think he'd be debuting this early this year. Hope he goes well.

Is he over 200cm??

I think we could save everyone a lot of time by determining the winner by just adding up the heights of each selected team.

Tallest aggregate height wins.

Dogs easy. Tallest team to ever play the game. They can't lose

Pumped for tonight

Pretty relaxed. Happy to see some young guys in the team. Not too worried about their 4 talls, its never really worked before. Would actually be more worried if it was 3 and Weightman. We should pump them in the clearances and on the wings.

Does anyone else just not rate them in the middle anymore? Losing Dunkley and Hunter is a big whack, and they haven’t got the depth of different roles in the squad to provide a really different look it seems.

Na they're still very good in there.

Bont, McRae, Smith, Libba and Treloar are still a very strong group and English is probably the 2-4th best ruck in the league.

Dunkley is one of the most overrated players in the entire league. Cant believe they put up such a fight to keep him. Never done anything for me at all.

 

[Tulip]

Sorry TiAn_ have I not watched enough Anthony Scott or Sauce Baker this pre-season?

 

[DemonZombie_001]

My only fear with this game is that Melbourne returns back to the style of 2022. Which includes getting 30 points up and losing. Even if Melbourne wins but still plays like that I want to reserve the right to melt.

I do rate the bulldogs I do believe they could beat a full strength Melbourne.

My biggest decision is if I buy a bottle of champers to kick the Dee's season off.

Let's go with a sub with speed for when the game slows down

Let's go with a sub who can play multiple positions

Let's go with Melky ️

At the ground the screens are saying JVR and Khamis are the subs. Which did strike me as a bit odd given I know JVR played for Casey today.

Glad to see Goody is still looking after his mates.

Surely there was someone better.

Probably just the first listed of the emergencies

 

[Lord Nev]

Not a Melksham fan, but guess it makes sense as a backup in case we need to switch TMac to the backline.

 

[Lampers]

Trust me, this is Melksham warming up.

 

[Simon_Says]

Bailey Judd? Good job Hammer!

 

[Jamurp]

Surely we ain’t losing to a side with Mitch Hannan and Oskar Baker

I hate that you get no pre-game on Kayo for Saturday night games (not on FTA in Sydney). Be lucky to catch the first bounce at this rate
