Anticipation level on a scale of 1- 10

[joeboy 2,775]

I posed this question prior to the first round and most respondees were bursting with anticipation. Has the excitement level subsided after the disappointments of the first 2 rounds , or are you still up there ?

On a scale of 1 - 10 , I was on 5 prior to the first round ; I am now on a 3.

[Jaded No More 57,959]

Negative 7.

May rise to 3 if Daniher decides to debut some kids this week.

Edit: after seeing the side that will line up on Sunday, negative 157

Didn't we lose the first 2 or 3 last year? To the Carlton twice last year?

Didn't we lose to Hawthorn last year?

I'm looking forward to:

- Seeing the inclusions and hope ND doesn't stay too predictable

- Seeing ND's forward-line structure

- Colin's return (fingers-crossed)

- Moloney/Whelan polaxing N.Ablett

- Watching Hawkins and Selwood play footy, in the flesh, on the MCG

- The Dees registering their first win of '07.

Anticipation for me is higher than it was last week. We may get to see the future of the forward line for the first time.

If we select Biz and Holland as our forwards, then it's a zero.

Thinking about footy at the moment makes me feel sick. I haven't dreaded watching the Dees play like this since 2003.

1. The NHL playoffs started today and the NBA's are not far away. These ought to help me take my mind off the hellpit that is season 2007.

Well Bolton play arsenal this weekend so im sure ill be caring a bit more about that until kick off time then ill be dreading the outcome of the game at the G

i reckon there is a 80% chance we will be 5-0 in 3 weeks time if not 8-0

To be honest I love these sort of "back-to-the-wall games", when nobody gives us a shot in hell of winning. It makes these kind of wins so much sweeter.

[occo 2]

im .5. I dont really care about this year anymore

[Gorgoroth 12,323]

After seeing the team -5 unless petterd plays then it might creep up to 1.75

[classy dees 42]

you beat me to it condemned. after seeing the team i must say i'm dreading the papers on monday.

[Lord Travis 10,167]

Agreed. After seeing the team, not looking forward to this one...

Lets hope we come out and pull some sort of miracle win with such a poorly rounded team on the field. Will make it oh so sweet!

[praha 10,281]

It was a 9 before the saints game. It's about 2 now. Only because we started 0-3 last year and still did ok. if not for that to look back on, i'd be negetive 100

Still early in the season & so many more dramas to unfold before round 22. Best that it all goes to [censored] early in the season I say than later. I'm still excited.

[beelzebub 22,225]

( just taking the mick )

coz it works well to build upon the foundation of sh!t !! :-))

[demonfanjezza 1]

was 9.25 before the saints game, and even though it only early in the season, my anticpation level is 4 and if we lose it will be nearlly 0-- 0.98

So my advice to the team is please lift and win
