So is Joe in or out??

The odds have changed a little in our favour this morning, may indicate hes out.....?

Slobbo on twitter saying Daniher might be a late out.

An infected self inflicted dog bite is a possible reason for his out.

I've got a date with an ex-nun this afternoon so I couldn't care less about this game. 

Don't make a habit of it !!!!!

Hope we win, Goddard cracks it again, hogan has a day out, essenscum fans leave the game filthy and bomberblitz goes into meltdown 

Joe is in. I reckon we will win today looking forward to the match, TMac makes a big difference structurally.

Is anyone actually going other than the cheer squad?

If Daniher is a late out then it will be Essendons worst side they’ve put out all year and all the planets will be aligned to ensure an emphatic victory for them.

brings back memories of 2016...  how did we lose that one !!

Watching from home, I hate sheetihad! or whatever they call it. Upwards of $25.00 to sit in the top rafters?

Nar !

Slobbo was wrong. No late changes.

In the corresponding game last year,if I recall correctly watts kicked 4, petracca kicked 3 or 4, Garlett 3 and hannan 2. Only one of those guys is playing today. 

Concerned about our ability to kick a big enough score today

Interesting inclusion with Spargo.

Goodwin likes his aggression. When a little man plays with aggression his teammates are going to have to stand tall.

This is a good selection.

Looks like the roof is closed?

nothing like sitting in the dark indoors on a beautiful day after being in the office all week!

he usually is

I will be at the gym from about 1 (2 your time) so will catch the first half.

Now I've calmed down a bit, I think there were some positives we could take from last week.

It's clear the issue is confidence and how that detracts from employing an effective game plan.

While the Dons will not lie down, my feeling is they are in a similar boat to us. They have talent but they are well down on confidence. 

This is a tough match to pick. I picked the Hawks and Tiges to roll us and thought we would get past the Lions and Roos.i don't approach this one with any confidence to pick a winner.

I think we win by 8 points in a game which will be pig dog ugly considering the 5 day turn around.

Dont worry, its started already......

Oh and theres this gem...."Ambrose to smash Hogan"  Yeah na.

Burning question for the day - will it be Daniher or Stringer that we play back into form?

Who will take home the Kent Kingsley today?

Stringer. 

Mostly because he is a s*** bloke and the footy gods decree that we be the ones who usually let types like him have crackers (see Mitch Robinson).

We’ll win, Goodwin is just trickin’ us 

does anyone remember the season that the crows were mediocre, few wins and losses and inconsistent then one week they flicked the switch and started scoring 25 goals a game? Think Craig was coach and Goodwin was playing, maybe around 2003-2006? Anyway, would love to see that happen to dees!

Normally this is a game eldest lad and I attend. He's a Bomber...

Even he can't get interested. 

Roof closed. TMac having shots on goal with BF and Hoges. A while to go, but pretty empty. 

I'm stoked to see what Tom McDonald back in our side does for how we set up. I think we'll be much more calm as we move our ball to goal.

I like that we have three genuine marking forward options.

I wonder what the forward line plan was before we were forced to play TMac up front?
