Game Day WCE v Richmond @ Optus Stadium 2.40pm

[Biggie]

Danger game.

WCE by 26

 

[ziad]

Confident - but then the sun comes up and I realise it's a competitive game against another team.

 

[Woutizmoo]

seasons on the line

 

[Doughboy]

Been a round of upsets, can we have one of our own?

 

[southcoast]

Don’t want a win. Pick 1 on the line (depending on Norfs v Hawks).

Want a competitive game, some good signs emerging and a few younger players taking a few steps forward.

Taking my son to his first AFL game today. Fingers crossed for at least a competitive effort from the boys

 

[NonPhixion]

is there any remote chance Barrass gets thrown forward today ?

 

[Carbine Chaos]

is there any remote chance Barrass gets thrown forward today ?

No. We have Allen, Darling, J Williams and Maric all playing.

No. We have Allen, Darling, J Williams and Maric all playing.

Maric is omitted ?

Petrucelle out, Maric in.

This where your name comes from?

 

[Astro7]

Trying to show some enthusiasm for a win, but it's tempered by a #1 pick up for grabs?
We want them to win, but we don't want them to win..
There's a very slight chance of an upset, a boiling turnover, at home with a large crowd on
a crisp sunny day?
We can pretend excitement -
"Oh go you big bugga bird, fly high in the sky like a hot meat pie...Go you Wedgy Weagles!"
(ok, that's enough)

 

[Dark Sharks]

I got a feeling in my peen.

We'll win today.

Flaccid peen. Not reassuring.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Ahh shit, it's game day.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Ahh s**t, it's game day.

 

[Cuzz09]

I hope we win.

I hope North beat Hawks.

We could improve our last years performance against Richmond at home by 12 goals and still be about 40 points off

And that should be the minimum expectation

Richmond have more to play for than us so should win but we should be able to put up a competitive performance

Hoping to see either (or both) of Long and Hewett to put in Rising Star nomination worthy games. Throw Chesser and Maric into that as well

 

[Mulldogg]

The selected team is missing Naitanui, Yeo, Ryan and Jones (borderline but arguably warranted on early season form off half back) from the best 22.

If we don’t get within 6 goals of the Tuggers today we’re even more cooked than I thought.

I’d probably add Waterman to that quartet but your point stands - we aren’t that far off our best side albeit some are a bit underdone after long layoffs and others are a bit battle weary

Definitely should be competitive though if the intent is there like the saints game

Hi all! I have noticed that Chesser has gone up a level over the last month or so - he seems to be fitter and more confident.

Despite this, he does seem to frequently get subbed. Is he a significant sub-risk today, given you can bring Gaff on?

Yep, fair enough on Waterman who played very well in our only win for the year.

I’m also balancing that expectation against a Richmond side without Lynch, Nankervis and Short.

If we get the luxury of choosing who to sub out as opposed to being forced to due to injury, then Cole will be subbed out
