The Other JLT Games Week 02

Have the bombers been full strength have lost to both Carlton and Geelong, and been hyped up by the media all summer

Bombers looked poor. Cats not much better. 

Hightlight of the match was a kid doing some commentary for a few minutes. Nailed it

 

Can't take any notice of pre season games. Druggies will finish higher than the cats at the end of the year.


Geelong are almost certain to play finals, but it's false hope in my view.  They have a serious home ground advantage, especially against to poorer interstate teams, so they chalk up around 7 wins just from that.  They will then have away games against some of those poorer sides, so they are almost good for that 12 win season that generally sees you sneak in to 8th.

As soon as they are playing on big grounds against better opposition, especially in September, they are useless.

I'd prefer them not to make it at all, rather than be embarrassed in the first final.

Maybe they are deliberately trying to Fly under the bridge, Pre season matches, to catch by surprise.   I expect them to push up the ladder in 2019. IF they have they're heads down and rsses up.

 

Adelaide look ok.  Top 4 quality with easy draw.  Only real weakness is the ruck.

Jacobs is ok...

I think their 2 big forwards are front runners & their defence could be suspect against good opposition talls.

Also need to keep their small/medium defenders honest, that's where they launch from.

Hoping we can sneak into the 8 with a hard fought win this arvo...

According to my calculations we're still a massive chance for Jalapeno top-four - and even a sneaky shot at runners up behind Carton (hehe) or, as official moral pre-season premiers, Collingwood. Go Dees!

(Damn - forgot about Radelaide)

Will be hoping and praying that Richmond, GC and Carlton get done this weekend to sneak into the top 6.

Sadly I think top 4 is out of the question as  Collingwood and Carlton play each other, while WC and Brisbane’s percentage may be too hard to overtake.

Hats off to the Crows for a fantastic Jalepano series.

At the risk of unsettling the MFCSS-superstitious masses prior to the season proper, my predicted 80-point win over a travelling BrisVegas outfit should see to that percentage deficit quick-smart.

One of Port or Norf in their game should change jumpers at half time. Ridiculous choice of strips in my eyes.

AFL will be happy with Port v Norf scoring fest.  At one stage North kicked 5 goals in 5 minutes from 5 consecutive centre clearances.

dominant ruckmen feeding big bodied mids who can kick it to leading forwards will be worth their weight in gold in 2019

Big game for us today in the context of the Jalapeño Lettuce & Tomato season.

Brisbane sitting pretty in second spot and will be keen to post another win to lock in a top four finish and due to our reasonable percentage, a win for us should see us slot into the top 8.

 

 

...hmmm, I should have read the rest of the thread better before duplicatING a fairly obvious point.  Ar well, I guess it is just a preseason post, doesn't count for as much as posts in a few weeks time against Port.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
