First bar I went to inside was no cash, Card only.... 2nd bar had already run out of Carlton Draught!! Must admit I get inside without any delays whatsoever with a prepaid ticket!

Smokn the good stuff Wolf!?

+2.....cheers @Binman

He waited fwee days to corect me to....

Yeah I`m with ya, I love how he goes about it despite his limitations as you say. He is supposed to be playing today so maybe it is something he has learnt to live with.

We wont get a chance to turn it over without another tall because one of Riewoldt, Membrey Bruce or Mccartin if he plays will have an absolute field day outmarking our smalls.

Reckon you`ve just about nailed it and yep I think we need another tall in the backline, may even be Garland and perhaps Jetta comes out unless he absolutely tears it up for Casey, and if so maybe Melksham has to come out for a tall.

Agree. Personally I`d prefer Pedo ahead of Weid or Spence but having watched training yday I dont think Pedo is 100%. Was bent over in pain from his strapped shoulder, reaching for his pec. He kept training but I thought his intensity was down compared to most others out there and I`d hazard a guess he is still being troubled post surgery.

Yes, but there is a spot for the taking if required with Mitch King on the LTI

Saw him in the rehab group today, looked pretty fit to me and I`d say very close to returning to the main group. In fact all in rehab group moved really well. Mitch White looked OK too but did see him chatting to a trainer and pointing to his instep of his foot, but soldiered on . Maynard was in rehab and looks in superb nic, ran a lot of laps at serious 3/4 pace. Hunt as discussed in training thread looked fine, got a headknock during training so just taking it easy but should be good for round 1.

Maybe check in with Wrecker45 re Hibberd as he couldn't see him....I'd already left when I replied to you but thought I saw him , was not specifically looking for him when I was there though!

I've left but he was in main group, all I can add sorry.

Hunt looks OK, I reckon it's just precautionary... saw him drill a torp from 65 with a slight breeze! Pedo looks a little saw in his strapped shoulder/ pec. Frost looks fit in main group. JKH jogging n walking laps

Just dropping by for 20 mins. Intensity and enthusiasm excellent, however my attention has been drawn to the rehab group consisting of Wagner, White, Maynard, and Jayden Hunt. I spoke to him and asked if he had a niggle but he said he got a head knock and reckons he will be fine! Hogan training in main group looks like no concerns. Lewis hands are just as lethal as his left boot. Boys are up n about, great voice and they look ready to go!

I seem to recall he had scans midweek during the JLT series and still played each game.

What's the 2nd hoodoo? Beat Saints is obviously one. Many seem to have forgotten we beat GWS at Etihad in 2015 Rd 23..... or is there another I'm missing??

We broke the Etihad hoodoo against GWS in 2015...Round 23 though, easy to forget that one!

It's classic Dees fan logic to write the season off after a decent hit out against a quality opponent.

Just didn't get enough of the ball tonight.....

We had several passengers tonight who should not play round 1. Weid is not ready. Harmes is not best 22. Not sold on Bugg, ANB may get lucky due to injuries, but was far from our worst tonight. Petracca was quite poor, Viney and Jones both well below standard. No wrist slashing from me though, considering how many poor players we had out there tonight we did OK. Oliver though, sheeeessshh!!

He will be filthy. Makes no sense at all he didn't at least play a half of footy. We had plenty of passengers tonight he could have replaced for 2 quarters at least.

Should be at least 4 free kicks less to WC than normal, Shuey will have his work cut out with more attention on the ducking rule!

Joey Montagna might be doubtful for Round 1, don't think he has played pre season and just reported he lasted 5 mins at training and went off with a calf niggle.

Good get! Sounds dodgy as hell..... join the dots!

Didn't Shane Charters make a last minute decision to not provide details to ASADA during the investigation ?? Might have had a chat with the dispute specialist ??
