    What do you know that I don't??

    If you are going to name a bloke and then say he will only play if such and such doesn't then you comprimise your credibility! If Petracca has been named and from all reports he has been tearing it up at Casey, then he should play! End of story!

    Nothing just a hunch I guess. Cant see both Trac and Garlett playing for some reason.    I hope you are right though.

    I was fully expecting to miss Trac's debut, but I'm a little devastated that it's actually happening. 

    I still don't think he'll play. Feel like they're teasing him. Like starving a dog and then letting him loose. My prediction is next week. Would also be kind of unfair for Trac to play ahead of ANB who has been smashing the door down at Casey for weeks (and yes I know fairness has nothing to do with team selection)

    Mahoney basically said that, if Garlett doesn't get through training on Friday, then there is a chance Petracca is called up as his replacement.

    Therefore if Garlett plays, Petracca doesn't.

    Are you predicting a late out?

    Pedersen, Garlett, Hunt, Kennedy for mine. Petracca if Garlett doesn't play.

    Absolutely agree. Richmond have no one that can slow down our quick small forwards. We can definitely use that advantage coupled with stretching them in the air with hogan, watts, pederson and frost.

    Shheit you are kidding Petracca will be a superstar ANB whilst deserving certainly is not in this blokes league! Sheeit if he has been named then he needs to play! Simple as that!

    Do you really expect that Mahoney will say it like it is?? Cheezus Keep Ninethmond on the edge!!

    Possible, or it got stuck down with something sticky.

    Mahoney on Petracca: 

    “We now consider him as available for selection and if Jeff is unable to get through tomorrow's main session, Christian will be a chance to debut."

    Very scary mental image you just gave me.

    For a team that was mind numbingly slow last year, we now have some serious leg speed all around the ground

    Not surprised , he's had a huge early season! Prudent and wise player management IMV!

    They've named Deledio - hasn't he been kicking kids' footies for the last two months?? Dangerous in, though. Gawny should take care of an underdone Maric...

    Who else is coming out then?

  • Quote
    •  

    Pedersen, Kennedy and Garlett certainties from that bench, barring not injury. Comes down to Petracca and Hunt and I suspect they will go Hunt.

  • Quote

    Fence, are you thinking Vince won't play or do you think that they will 'rest' someone else?

    Or is the statement that both Jeffy and CP will play made by AlternaFence?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
