Yes, the weather forecast is getting worse as we approach the day of the game.

    His Brother Josh.  

    May I add from the vision they are showing there is no way he is playing.

    Every time I look, the weather forecast for Thursday gets crappier and crappier.  Not good.

    Since I last looked the temp has gone up 2 degrees to 19 now. The 90% chance of rain might not be that cold.

    Spargo is firming as a possible selection in place of TMac in my opinion. (assuming wet/greasy conditions) Looking windy as well. Not great for our high forward bombs

    Pity that Schache hasn't come on.

     

    I read this a lot about our high bombs. Are we still doing this? I don’t think so.

    Good. Play players who are not 100% fit and see what happens.

    AA TEAM   just now i bothered to have a look at it.

    Hilarious. 2 St.kilda players in the backline.  I'd back in the  Dees backline ahead of that lot  in big games. WTF would Aints know.

    The obssession with Bulldogs and Saints players over the years is mind boggllng. The Bont excluded.

    Without Fritsch Melbourne FC could become the first team to win a flag without a  forward line.

    It could happen.

    This post may be written in jest, but I really don't like it. Cox wears his glasses to stop him from going blind from another eye injury. It's OK not to like him, but let's not wish him a serious, life-changing injury.

    Well then tell him not to ride his knees into Gawn's back at every opportunity

    We’re 0-5 in the wet this year.

    What’s that saying that if you throw a bunch of darts at the board… 

    Weirdly, we only played 1 wet game last year and actually won it (Freo-rd 20)

    So N Daicos started running today and will be playing a critical final 4 nights later.

    If the weather forecast doesn’t change I’m going to put money on the Pies. I just don’t think we have enough good ball users to take smart options and try and hit up targets in the wet. It’s a real risk that we’ll revert to bombing it in and get caught on the rebound with chaos ground ball that Elliott and the like will love.

    As I said based on the running there is no way he is playing. quarter pace and could not change direction.

    The boys won’t care how wet it is. In the first 8 weeks of 2021 we played in the rain about 4-5 times and won them all.
    This season we’ve lost a couple of close ones in the wet and some of our best footy came in the pouring rain during the third quarter of the Port game where we piled on 7 goals. 
    Us being no good in the rain is a little overblown I think.

    The Alice Spring game was the worst.

    Predicted score had us wining by 5 goals that day.

    Oh yeah, forgot about that one. A squillion 50 entries for 5 goals. Was thinking Port and Carlton only.

    I was about to post the same thing. How do you reckon the Pies run and carry goes on the wet? We’re about to grind out 3 wins and take home the Flag. Rain ain’t stopping that.

    What’s the minimum amount of time it has to rain during a game to constitute a ‘wet’ match? It rained during the Richmond game later in the year and we won that. Are you counting gather round in your 0-5? 
    That loss had nothing to do with the rain. It was obvious from the first ten minutes we weren’t covering the ground well at all.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
