So excited for this game! I must say that I'm a little scared to lose this game after our previous 2 round 1 losses against weak opposition, but then I keep telling myself that it's 'just Melbourne'. And although they have now got Paul Roos, they won't change their stripes overnight.
Realistically, all they've added is Cross (a has-been), Vince (a player who's never played to his potential), Hogan (a great talent but has yet to play against an AFL standard full-back) & Dom Tyson. I've gotta say, I'm not too worried!
Can't wait to see the Dees try to execute their possession game plan against our 'bring the maniac back' pressure that we've seen in the last practise match v Port. Their shit skills will not have disappeared overnight so I have a lot of confidence, regardless of Lenny & Joey being absent from our midfield.
Anyway, only 12 more sleeps......
