Game Day Round 1, 2025: West Coast vs Gold Coast

[MeltMan]

I haven't had one decent Optus stadium food item ever since the stadium opened.
Only Mrs Mac's pies are okay, even though a lot of ppl hate them. I don't mind them.

Think my Optus food on this diet might be protein bars from home then no chicken chippies.

 

[Ghossein]

when is the sub announced

 

[Dark Sharks]

It's Maric and Sexton.

Trust me bruv.

 

[stallon]

Maric sub
Glad its not Hewett

 

[TheBudgies]

when is the sub announced

30 mins before game usually right?

 

[stallon]

30 mins before game usually right?

60 mins

 

[pacemaker]

Anyone expect dewar to play in defence as listed?

 

[lmach]

Been watching the odds on the AFL app the last week and we’re slowly coming in a few cents each day… bodes well

 

[Mulldogg]

Think I'm gonna go looking for the butter chicken chippies.

They need to bring back those elite beef and gravy rolls on Level 5. Can’t believe they swapped them halfway through last season for horrendous looking Italian meatball subs.

EDIT - They’re back! In in different iteration. Not sure about the rabbit food and gravy on the side though…

 

[stallon]

Anyone expect dewar to play in defence as listed?

Well its gotta be Dewar or Duggan at half back, far more likely to be Dewar

 

[Dom sheed pocket]

Anyone expect dewar to play in defence as listed?

Yes. Dewar replaces Allan, Hutch/Hunt on a wing, Elijah in the guts.

 

[Avalor]

Gotta say, I like the make up of the team. Like Dewar off half back, a bevy of smalls up forward to hassle and chase. Like it.
Good team, first up, Mini!

 

[DorothyG]

Gotta say Optus suface is actually looking in great shape for once

 

[KERRPOW]

Sausage roll and 8 beers is all you need for an Optus meal

Hild the sausage roll.

 

[Easternkingdom87]

No way dewar is at half back…hunt or duggo back. My bet is hunt

[Bleedblueandgold]

Pleasantly surprised that Hewey isn't the sub.
Been waiting a whole year to see him play another AFL match lol.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Maric’s hair is genuinely cooked.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Internet at the stadium might be worse than ever, stay tuned for some of the best first quarter analysis you’ve ever read three hours after the fact.

 

[WCEswift]

I want to see Hewey and Harley go nuts together

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Heard the didgeridoos and thought that to the BoT song won.

 

[TheBudgies]

60 mins

But can make changes upto 30 mins pre bounce?

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Congrats Gaffy.

 

[Ghossein]

great way to honour gaff by getting him to slowly go around the optus wings one last time

 

[bzparkes]

Maric logically the best choice for sub due to his versatility.

 

[mouncey2franklin]

Who is 'Snake'? I hear he kicked goals against North in the match sim.
