I'm not sure how many (if any) players with limited preseasons so my list looks a little different.

Certainties:

Bell, Carroll, Green, Robertson, Neitz, Davey, Moloney, McLean, Jones, McDonald, White,

Probables:

Wheatley, Buckley, Miller, Dunn, Petterd, PJ,

Possibles:

Bruce, Rivers, Newton, Batram, Frawley, Morton, Jamar, Meesen, Garland, Bode, Yze, Holland, CJ

Of the possibles I'd have the first five to round out the 22. I wouldn't have Yze simply because his form and disposal in the pre-season has been ordinary.

that leaves a side that looks like this:

Bell, Carroll, Bartram

Wheatley, Miller, Rivers

Dunn, McDonald, Moloney

Bruce, Newton, Robertson

Davey, Neitz, Green

White, McLean, Jones

Petterd, Buckley, PJ, Frawley

 

FB: Bell Carroll Bartram

HB: Frawley Rivers Petterd

C: Moloney Jones Wheatley

HF: Bruce Newton Green

FF: Robertson Neitz Davey

Foll: White McDonald McLean

Int: P Johnson Morton Dunn Buckley


On paper our lineup actually looks pretty good!

I am not overly concerned with our pre-season form, and the fact that everyone is tipping us to finish bottom couple is just a joke!

We all saw what teams like Port Adelaide and The Kangas did last season after a horror 2006....

Giving up hope this close to Round 1 is just [censored] weak!

I have faith that we will push for a finals birth this season and no matter what any so called "experts" may say, I will not be changing my mind until I truly believe otherwise!

The first 5 or 6 rounds will give us a good indication of where we are heading for 2008, but just remember what the boys can do when they get a bit of confidence about them..... All is not lost!

Bring this $hit on baby!!!!

I'm interested to see who will be the back-up ruckman, who will play in Rivers' absence (almost certain he won't be rushed back into the side), and whether Yze will get a game.

Finally it's here... can't wait till Sunday!!!

B: RIVERS, CARROLL, BELL

HB: YZE, MILLER, WHEATLEY

C: BUCKLEY, JONES, MOLONEY

HF: BRUCE, NEWTON, DAVEY

F: ROBERTSON, NEITZ, GREEN

FOLL: WHITE, MCLEAN, MCDONALD

IC: BARTRAM, DUNN, MORTON, P.JOHNSON

EMERG: PETTARD, HOLLAND, FRAWLEY

 

My big call for round 1 is Dunn on Franklin.

It just looks so right.

Also, a nice side note that accoring to finalsiren.com the hawks best players vs Melbourne over the last five games are many of the same players they are now missing, including Jacobs, Brown, Hodge and Crawford. Franklin doesn't have a record of firing against us.

What we have to really watch is bloody Mark Wlliams. C'mon Belly, nail him to the turf!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
