The Ooze

lets hope west coked eagles becomes west CHOKED eagles :D:D

waste of $50 mate

wet toast wont lose 2 in a row, especially against us at home

and especially after losing to geelong, the odds will be hardly appealing

The real reason we are not winning games is that we have 2 useles ruckman in P.J and Jamar doing nothing week in and week out robbing us of an extra midfielder.

Last week it looks as though PJ was doing hit outs in the forward pocket rather than trying to take marks

It's too bad that he won't break Styne's record

this is 2007 you DONT adjust to the game you play.. you PLAY it from day 1..this is what professionals do...its their craft and thats what the preseason is for...to iron out the bugs and hones the gameplan etc.

.to hand your opponents..all of them a 3 game freeby is suicide.

Then why is it that Carlton seem to be on top of the game pre-season yet performs abysmally in the real thing? I agree with you on the fact that preseason helps players adjust to the AFL season, but I believe it is very different to the actual season, not only in terms of the game rules and giving youngsters game experience, but also the fact that clubs don't give away their strategies until the season starts, sometimes not even until the finals.

Maybe the deez are taking a bit of time adjusting to the footy season.

after all, we lost the opening 3 last year and came out firing

Putting a team together are we?

you got it.

I got most of my players picked out. Just wasn't sure which youngsters to include

Cheers mate

could anyone be kind enough to point me to a link that lists players' stats in the matches in 2007 NAB pre-season cup?

Im 21, from melbourne and been following the deez since 2000. I like how they generally play very 'dignified' footy

I'm not a hardcore fan, but I attend a few matches every year and watch it on TV when it's on free-to-air.

Currently I'm into hip hop, R&B music. Also like a bit of rock

ps, i really love the layout of this forum - very professional looking and jam-packed with features
