[Ethan Tremblay 30,481]

From Chris Scott on AFL360, Dangerfield is still a chance and Ablett will play.

Good. I hope they both break down early in the 2nd Quarter. 

If they play, they are fair game. 

Run the bastards as hard as possible...

BANG! 

“That’s you for the day...”

Geez that will be fun we have Viney and Oliver out possibly and they have dumbwood, danger and Ablett in possibly. 

Awesome!

If we are worrying about ins and outs at this stage, you can give up on finals.

 

We played our best footy last year with no Hogan and Viney.

Fxxk Geelong, I think we can win this.

Just would have been nice for us to be at full strength too but take onboard what u r saying faulty. 

Would be a massive win if we can get it considering all our outs.

Bloody hell on the couch have just opened the show with one of the biggest stories in the off season was Melbourne cancelling their boot camp!

My god it never ends. 

Ffs get over it.

I hate being favourite going into Round 1.

Damien Barrett just said on MMM he won't play

They just means he's more likely to play. ?

[brendan 3,433]

Scott did say he is a chance but was far from convincing

Saw earlier odds in the day and we were favourites, but even evens makes me worry

I’m not disagreeing with you Sigil, but at some point if we’re going to win a flag soon we must be favourites in games like these and deliver a result accordingly.

In the past our best games were always as the underdogs. Part of our mental fragility has been in not being able to perform as favourites. If we're going to push for finals or top 4 or the big dance then we have to break the shakles of not being able to win when we're expected too and also being favourites against the "strong" teams and getting the job done. 

[Roger Mellie 3,904]

I had the same info from Geelong knobs (admittedly it was Sunday) that Ablett in and Danger out

[McQueen 17,864]

Who fuggin cares.

Just bounce the ball.

I’m not worried about either of those blokes in relation to us being a competitive and worthy side of making finals.

All this hype?

We’re in the ballpark guys.

I won't believe it until he's announced to play 90 minutes before the game when the final team list is in.  

For the record, they're crazy to play him, especially with Ablett going in with no match practice as well.  I actually think it works in our favour to have them playing blokes who aren't 100%.

Agree with that - Ablett must be underdone and Danger well that's a massive risk - They must be worried !!

[Pennant St Dee 12,812]

Worry about who we have got and not who we haven't.

Have a red hot crack at the 22 in front of you. The FD will have a game plan firmly in place by now covering all possible Cats in and out.

Up to our 22 boys named

[DubDee 24,852]

So much talk of their midfield but without Henderson and recent retirements Geelong's defence is poor

Possible line up:   

Stewart   Taylor   Jones

Tuohy    Kolodjashnj   Bews

If we break even in the middle we should win this.  If Hogan is on Taylor it will be worth getting Hogan on his bike around the ground and out to the wings.  Pedo and Trac should be able to dominate in the air if we get it in quick

Quite a likely outcome, SWYL. We must run those two into the ground accompanied by a few hard bodies assisting along the way. I still have dreams of another 'weekend with Bernie' for Dangersmelled, and for Ablett, a run-in with Pedo at full bore.... 

[Demonland 70,663]

Oh great it's Selwood's 250th game on the weekend.
