58er

Yes it will be in our top 5 of the 50 Lizzie but My No 1 would be the QUAL Final vs Carlton in 2000 or even the Prelim in 1988 at Waverley vs Blues. In each of these 3 games Our opponents were below their best by about 2/3 goals in form or at the end of a reign of success (all were defending champs when we beat them). Many years in our Finals in the last 50 years have been curtailed by The eventual Premiers in the Prelim or Semi Final stage or the Grand Finals of 88 and 2000. Adelaide in 1998 were an exception and we never met Carlton in 1987 when on a roll. Generally we also didn't finish in The top 4 or 5 To get a doulble chance, excepting for 2000. Interesting last 19 games as best.

Yes I have thought of this but did u think we were or are only a 7 goal side on Round1? I didn't but we played our underwhelming wasteful forward way so say 10 goals might be our estimate in Round 1. I would be knocked over with a feather if we kicked 15 goals and were beaten by the Blues.

There us not a poor footballer in that team. Even our debs are good players and will play their role. Kossie led the way in Round 1 and Goody has no doubt altered his approach and deserves a perfect response.

I estimate this is a 5 goal better side than Round1. Of course it has to play up to expectations .

And no self distancing within sight!! A Reasonable number hugged Harley and also Jacko and Rivers from the video.

That's not fair in my opinion Grr-owl. You are directly throwing that at Max and if no names are mentioned it is unfair to many or all of our players. Harley was extremely emotional and spoke beautifully but his journey has been a lot harder than any one else's so he was reflecting his wonderful spirit and appreciation of all the Club who have been very serious in backing him all the way.

Sorry Doc but it's not been 25 deg up here In Brisbane fir about 3 weeks !! sure it will be warmer Than Melb though also after 4 pm not likely to be warm!!! Lets enjoy the joy of all the newcomers and their debuts. Si many and do many stories and all got potential. Its almost a partial rebiuild on the run !! Go the mighty Dees !

Thanks DL has anyone put Josh Mahoney on SEN I think today by any chance?

Thanks a lot CHF just sighted it

AvB not fit enough (unavailable) Smith not yet also Lockhart and Omac in

Why presume Smith ?

Really great that Harley been rewarded and so well deserved. its been a real team effort so far medicos coaches players and who knows what the result will be. It just may be a defining moment in our journey and the team can start fulfilling its now huge potential. This Round2 team is 5 goals better than Roind 1 in scoring potential!

Two of our best defenders from around 1 Nev ! Both Omac and Locky play Hibbo out and others from mid and forward lines

Hibbo was horrible in Round 1 Loose and his kicking and disposal nowhere near 2017 and 2018. He has taken weight off but looks a shadow of his former self.

Lockhart and Omac better than Smith and ANB

Here here dl4e

Hibberd has to go not Lockhart if firm is any guide

Shame Forgetting about Jonesy his Return will be the most influential to our new forward line ad hence our performance.

Didn't need to did it and it looked easy because of his skill! Buckley gut half his possessions with handpasses from teammates Ready to Kick from behind the mark

Hibbo for me

Absolutely Moon and last year with a our injuries and surgeries the same 5 games at least. Cattle better this year and more speed and versatility ie Kossie Bedford Chandler AVB Hannan Brown Jackson and the resting mids and rucks plus even Dslem I reckon at times!

Would defy logic to name Petty Pruess as emergencies as they didn't play last Sat.

If only to keep him out of the backline !!! not Harmseys caper Really.

Graeme Wise at first ruck very wiry type but don't think he had a long career Games any one?

I understand Ron what you are trying to say but I don't think power is the thing. Its smoothness almost a gliding and pace more similar to Andrew Macleod really. I also really liked Travis and his skills and if Harley could give us 3/4 years of what Travis did we would be very privileged. Perhaps Travis could have even been a better player than even he was as he had Social issues that held him back physically and I believe mentally. Again another floored ( injured Players included) genius to join many of our Potential champs to join Schwartz Jakovich Hogan Charles Bamblett Wonnemarri Stephen Smith Glen Swann And mysterious departures of Pike and Martin. Others Will add to this list no doubt.
