GAME DAY - Round 6

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

We are still SO inexperienced!

When was the last time we had the oldest or most experienced list in the competition? And when will it happen again I wonder?

I wouldnt want to be the oldest but we sure lack experience against most except the newbies like GWS who on paper we should have knocked over if experience counted for anything.

This wont change soon until we find quality ins for some gaping holes chook. How long is a piece of string is the answer i guess.

[CBDees 3,167]

Really?

When has Buddy ever kicked a bag against Melbourne?

Frawley and Garland have always had his measure.

Yes but Frawley may play forward and Garland is playing for the Scorpions!

[dee-luded 2,959]

Can't see us winning, but looking forward to some beers under the great MCG lights and giving Buddy some constructive criticism about his driving skills.

HaHaHa, ask him what its like trying to drive a lap dog.

[Mr Steve 3,820]

I still remember the last time we played Sydney at the MCG and Goodes played his first game back from injury. Give the knee one more week .

[Demon Jack 6,907]

Subs have been named.

Melbourne - Christian Salem

Sydney - Adam Goodes

[JackVineyForPresident 310]

I did not want to see Salem starting as the sub!

But im still looking forward to him coming on!

[John Crow Batty 8,863]

Good, Salem should be the sub. The onus is on him when he does get his run to prove everyone wrong. Good first up lesson to earn his spot. Not like the diva like debuts of Scully and Trengove etc.

But Scully and Trengove's first years were amazing?

Toumpas is the example you're looking for

[Undeeterred 3,123]

Do you understand they didn't say center clearances? (only 1 question mark is needed btw)

Are you seriously this much of a tool you're trying to have this argument?

You're the one who started a completely unnecessary argument, tiger.

Shocking move, good enough to get a game good enough to start. Shannon Byrnes should have been sub, just watch for him, Turnovers Terlich,or Nev Jetta to be subbed of IMO

[frankie_d 1,471]

This is my fourth game in 6 days.I've seen the very best (Hawks cats) and anzac daline. Which was high intensity and commitment to the contest. I saW us against the suns, where application and intensity would have got us over the line. I just want intensity for the whole game. And yes, that means you JW. I really hope I can post about him winning the contested 50/50 ball ... Don't reckon we'll win, but effort will get us close.

Strongly disagree with you there. Bringing in a first gamer later in the match after the heat has died out is a great move. Lets him play freely, safe in the knowledge that he'll be able to run the game out.

[SaberFang 7,151]

Anyone just see Bernie Vince on the SNF lie detector test? Failed miserably

Obviously it's just a bit of a laugh (I hope) because they aren't an exact science, but here's a few of the nuggets:

- He said he wasn't the best looking guy at the club (lie)

- He said he thinks Melbourne can make the finals (lie)

- He said Melbourne blokes were better than the blokes at his old club (lie)

- He said he'd rather be here in Melbourne than back in Adelaide (lie)

- He said if he could have any pick of any club to come to, he would have picked Melbourne (lie)

He did say he loved Taylor Walker though, and that was unsurprisingly true. Go figure

[Deemotivated 550]

Jeeeeeeeesus I'm so sick of kids being made the sub for their debut. Yay your in the team... Now sit here and watch for 3 quarters.... Bulldust!!

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I'm not feeling confident at all, Swans by 50+.

[frankie_d 1,471]

Watts in the warm up. Taking over head marks with a bloke wacking him with a jumping bag.

[frankie_d 1,471]

Oh, and it is Arctic here...

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Sydney supporters love wearing their caps at night, least knowledgable supporters going around too.

Saw him in the rooms last week after their team meeting. He looked genuinely broken. I do wonder if he got a spray for his arm waving and playing for free kicks. A lot of players look dejected, but jw more so than usual. Hopefully he got a spray and comes out tonight and plays the ball from start to finish.

Says a man who wears his own cap 24/7.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Good point!

[Chook 15,012]

Chris Dawes wearing the long-sleeves tonight. Last time he wore them we beat the Doggies by 2 points, so on that note I'm tipping us to win tonight...by 2 points.

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Jeezus the swans are much bigger bodied than us.

[KingDingAling 3,757]

Dees by 26 points

[whatwhat say what 22,744]

swans by 42.

jetta on jetta does not fill me with confidence. one is super-quick, one plays for us.

i suppose he might get into his head.
