I am actually happy we play GW$ first up. 
if we play the old static style of the last 2-3 years, we will get murdered 

We have to be innovative and proactive next week

Same here. No queues at the bar or loo.

I forgot how good the Giants backline is

Will be a tough game next week

Is Daicos Cam a new initiative for Fox this year? 

[Sir Why You Little 37,446]

YES!!! F$&@ off Pies…

what mind?

Well, you know how there used to be a theory that some of the bigger dinosaurs had a second brain located in their [censored]? Sadly it got demoted (a bit like Pluto) for being too small and non-functional.

Speaking of... always nice to see Maynard having a stinker. Especially liked him copping an accidental bump from a teammate because he'd thrown himself down trying to draw a fake free.

gws are slick with the handballs not so much with marking...

[Maldonboy38 6,435]

Free to air tv - if all else fails play re-runs of Friends or Seinfeld.

Fox sport - if all else fails show some bland meaningless thing involving a Daicos. 

Apart from some great run-and-carry by the Giants, what a carp game of footy for a Sunday arvo. Dropped marks, poor foot skills decorated by some packs and tackling. 

[DubDee 26,647]

Why is everyone cramping up?

Its 26oC

Giants will be sore this week

[Dee Zephyr 19,307]

Can’t decide if Cadman is good or not.

They should have beaten the Swannettes in the GF last Season 

44 points up against The Bears and they relaxed 1%
If we can beat them next week it will be huge 

We need to emphasise Speed and ball movement, constantly create options

Dunno but I have every hair and skin cell of his thigh seared into my memory.

And it ain’t pretty

He is reading the play and getting to the right spots really well, but not executing simple kicking and marking. He looks ripe for mine, just rusty.

[VNightCityLegend 165]

Daicos 🤣🤣🤣

Decent bloke, but gee, how good is it to see? Pies are nothing without him. Long may the targeting and tagging continue. 

[jaydenh10 81]

did people really think pies were top 4 this year??

They have the talent and skill. The ? Will be in their fitness and keeping the talent in the field.

Daicos clearly didn’t get the minutes in during pre season.  Will he be playing catch up all year? 

[Dingo 1,183]

Is this the Giants B side?

They seem to have a number of injuries and suspensions?

Yeah, it's lovely in Sydney today. Gentle breeze, not hot, and the humidity is in the clouds, not sticking to everything at ground level.

Getting a little bit of Weideman vibes. Almost feels like Cadman's 2024 would be what we would have seen from Weideman if he'd had a full season in the firsts to learn the level. U suppose the key similarity is the lack of high impact moments to compensate for the long periods uninvolved.

He actually looks like he's been lightly seared on both sides to lock in the flavour. Big fake tan sponsorship about to drop at Collingwood.

[Clintosaurus 7,953]

Media really do gargle the Pies something fierce. Just vomit inducing. 

[DubDee 26,647]

Pies with 0.5 in that Quarter

😂😂

[Little Goffy 14,945]

Callum Brown with two goals, 1 behind, and one Maynard in the face. Good day out.
