DubDee 26,675 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Well I'm sick of thinking about the Dees so let's talk other teams. I just read that the bomber leadership group is Dyson Heppell and vice-captain Zach Merrett, David Myers, Orazio Fantasia and Joe Daniher. WTF are they thinking? The only one there with any leadership is Heppell and he is not a natural leader imo. Hurley should be skipper with Heppell and Hooker in the LG. still surely they can't lose to the saints who are imploding Anyway, I reckon the Pies will get up tonight Lions should beat North away - they have no injuries and are in good form (i'm tipping Lions to make the ? Dogs may upset Hawks - could be an interesting year for the doggies and the big one on Sunday arvo - Suns V Freo will break the reckon for interest level and lowest attendences. even GWS will take the mickey out of that game. I wouldn't be surprised if the umpires and cameramen don't turn up! 1 Quote

Diamond_Jim 12,773 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Big night for the Pies... are they the real deal. Should be a great game... Is it a sellout? West Coast and GWS is another game to watch closely. Quote
Dee Zephyr 19,311 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Interesting to see how Toiges go without Rance and Houli. I’m thinking Pies will win, just. Let’s see if Cox replicates his prelim heroics. 1 Quote

Hurley always looks like he's punched a dozen cones before the game as a warm-up. 1 Quote

Lucifers Hero 40,722 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Hogan makes his debut for Freo and wish him well and hope he has a super game. HW$NBN makes his debut for the Hawks but can't wish him well. What a steel for the Hawks - 4th round pick, I think. Edited March 28, 2019 by Lucifer's Hero Quote

But somehow happy (for him) when he was announced in the leadership group. He is great footy warrior. Hope the knee is not as bad as expected so I can boo him at the QB game....that's the Collibobbles GF game! Quote

Will be interesting to see how he comes up. Would love to know the real story of that trade. Edited March 28, 2019 by Diamond_Jim Quote
pineapple dee 2,892 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Collingwood will beat Richmond, as sure as God made little apples. Collingwood will pump the ball into their forward line so often, it'll be like the little boy with his finger in the dyke. It'll overwhelm them in the end. Collingwood have too many goal kickers and without that reprehensible toad, Rance,to defend, the Tigers have got no hope. Quote
dees189227 12,512 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Logic says the pies should win because Cox dominated the prelim when Rance was there and he isn't there tonight so Cox should dominate even more. I think I want the tigs to win just so collingwood lose again. Gee Id love to see the saints beat essendon. That would be great 1 Quote
What 18,810 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 RIchmonds first test without Rance, and its a big one. Would love to see them fall apart completely and struggle all season. 1 Quote

Demon Dynasty 17,165 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) The Pies controlling tempo and momentum of the game by accurate passing (must have a very high kicking efficiency in general tonight) and a lot of switching (keeping off) play around the back. Also being VERY patient waiting for the right option to hit up around the back or on a shallow forward entry. Alternatively they kick it low and flat to the hot spot (more so than bombing) if they have to under pressure in a play on situation. They clearly have a game plan, most players know their roles and play accordingly and they are extremely fit and well drilled. Barring injuries to key players they will make the GF IMHO.
