[Scooter_1968]

A dicky calf on a lovely 15° day down here in Tassie , could be very risky

Very risky. Surely he doesn’t actually play though.

Hoping Bramble gets a game this week
Reckon the conditions will suit him in Tassie

Forecast is Sunny, 18 degrees with light winds for Sunday...
Is that his conditions??

Shhhh.

Don’t be confusing the Melbourne folks who don’t realise that we are actually drier than Melbourne.

It always amuses me when my Melbourne friends come to visit and say “Will it be raining every day” when in fact Hobart is the 2nd driest capital city in OZ.

It’s seems an 18 degree day in Melbourne is like a tropical paradise, compared to a freezing 18 degrees in Tassie.

It should be perfect conditions for footy, if there is no wind on Sunday.

 

[Kanga Commando]

I've never been one to know any of our players, I've always supported them. I will add that I don't see every game we play, but I must say I really can't see what some people are seeing in Nash. I must catch him on his bad days.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday ?

Nearly all games played in Tassie are low standard slog fests

 

[Mrzohs]

Hard to tell on the ch7 which gave very close in shots most of the time, but the melbourne/casey seemed to make more of them.

The raw material is there though, As tall as Cox but looks to move much less ungainly/unco

Gets the Taps, can take a Mark etc etc

Sounds promising for the future. In your opinion would it be possible to play him and Bigboy in the same team?

I feel the quicker sides Tigers / Dogs not only have quicker midfielders but also don't have two lumbering talls in the 22.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Lewis, Gunston, Cousins in for
O’Brien, Nash, Howe please

 

[Changa10]

Flying over for this game! Can't wait!

Please let us win this, or it will be horrible returning to Adelaide lol

Anyone else heading to the game?

Yep, I'm heading up and spending over 6 hours in the car to watch a low standard slog fest, unlike our skillful, fast moving, exciting games I have watched on TV so far in 2021.

Nearly all games played in Tassie are low standard slog fests

Ahh, right on cue.

At least we have been preparing ourselves well for it this year then

 

[Lickmesocks]

At least we have been preparing ourselves well for it this year then

Could be a AFLW score line this week .

 

[hawkman]

We have been playing slog fests most weeks since 2016 not just in Tassie. Occasionally the conditions don't help but there have still been some decent games since then. The draw against GWS in 17 the 6 goal comeback in 2019 against Carlton

 

[Quacker5]

Gunston ruled out this week, likely to play the following week

 

[MrPremiership]

Gunston ruled out this week, likely to play the following week

Given his injury, if you told me when it happened that he would be back at Round 7 I would have been happy

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Lewis Cousins Brockman in
TOB, Howe, Nash out

 

[Hawk Dork]

Lewis will come in,would like to see Brockman too unless they think a few weeks at BH is better for him ???

He's had no weekends at Box Hill yet. Thats the problem with the system as it is as both he and Cousins miss a game.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Cegs is out for a while. No Gunston this week.

 

[WWSD]

Will Impey ever play in the midfield? I think he would excel playing as an inside/outside midfielder with his speed and skills.

Season average: 24 disposals - 6 marks - 3 tackles - 5 rebound 50s - 77% disposal efficiency

 

[Judd2Sewell]

4 weeks for Ceglar.

Another 6/7 for DGB, with the injury being a little worse than first thought.

I reckon Dgb may not see the field again until 2022, we won’t rush anything and some extra fitness won’t hurt him

He’ll play vfl

It might be a good time for Grainger-Barras and Day to build some upper body strength and put on some bulk during their rehab.

Yup barring no long term injury may be a blessing in disguise

Bone bruising is hard to forecast. High variance in recovery time.
