[Demonland 73,140]

The PREGAME Thread will replace the CHANGES Thread and will contain any discussion relating to the next match including Changes, Ticketing & any other related discussion for the upcoming match.

Who comes in and who goes out?

Lever is under an injury cloud. Disco Turner? Tomlinson?

Do we play our best available 23 again or give some of the kids a last shot before Round 1?

I don't think it will be our best team. It wasn't last year, or the year before.

In both years we had our best 22 on the first practice match.

Unless there are injuries I suspect we saw the round one team today (with the exception of jvr).

Melksham might be an in perhaps.but Chandler would probably have to come out, and I'd prefer Chandler.

Hopefully those who were watching today play next week

If Lever is out then I would like to see Disco. Plays more like Lever than Hibberd does.

I can't believe you mentioned Tomlinson woeful performance today.

[Supreme_Demon 3,899]

Will be interesting if Jacob van Rooyen plays, especially as he may have possibly injured his hamstring?

Fingers crossed I am wrong on that.

If they lose, will their members be microwaving the membership before the season starts I wonder 🤔🫢

Can someone please confirm the ticketing situation for this game. I thought I read free entry but, if so, I assume you would need to get there pretty early before thousands of Richmond fans descend on the ground.

Jason Castagna wont be playing, as the 26 year old surprisingly retired from AFL football, effective immediately.

Ffrom the AFL site it is free entry. Doubt the Tigers fans will descend on Casey. They have no money for petrol !

No one can afford petrol!

Or food... Or electricity or gas or their mortgage...

Sheesh,  only 26? Felt like he was around for decades, good on him though. Triple premiership player in 100 odd games.

This recent incident on the rub down bench convinced him it was time to call it quits.

I'll be making the relatively short journey to watch this game.

Anyone know if they stand will be available or will it just be standing only?

He’s quitting football to become a tattooist. True story.

And don’t forget the picket (or wire) fence will protect our sacred site.

[dazzledavey36 55,358]

I read a snippet in the herald sun that we will be putting put a younger squad then what we had against the Saints.

Did anyone else see this??

He's no Ian Ridley but that's a pretty good run.

I never picked him as being unusually wise but you have to give him credit for getting off the Titanic at Cherbourg.

[In Harmes Way 7,823]

I’d like to see Judd McVee back up his good game against the Saints
