I can't believe the pies pushed the doggies last week, and the Tigers walloped the blues

Prestia has very ordinary foot skills

Watching Collingwood and Richmond and I just don't rate either of them

I think you are spot on there

Im hoping for a big win to signal the end of the era where we weren't so sure of what we were going to get.

Even Pederson and Harmes looked good, Its great to have depth.

Yes Bernie has accepted one week

Spoke to one if Joel's best mates this morning and he told him he will be out for 8-10 weeks

So far Adelaide, West coast and Geelong are looking the best of the bunch early this year. Apart from us if course ?

I thought of Pedo in for Smith, as can play multiple positions. Not sure how far away Frost is as he would be the automatic replacement Cant think of who to drop for Kent and Tyson,good problem to have.

Jones seemed to have gained a yard in pace, thought he was terrific. Jetta = Mr reliable Jordan Lewis , invaluable , what a get. Oliver is already elite Stretch is a beauty Petracca a freak Hogan is a hulk We will play finals this year.

Brilliant effort, with the superior midfield , just drooling over Oliver he has arrived as our best mid. Loved Hannans intensity and what a superb pick up and goal. We will also get a lot better with Tyson and Kent as well as Hibberd and Frost making our defense stronger .

Feeling a bit toey......really really really want to beat these buggers and get the four points.

How you could even contemplate leaving our most skillful player Watts out and having Weideman , Spencer or Pederson in his place is beyond me.

How badly do we want it? I think the boys will surprise with a relentless attack on the ball, and Goodwin will have them primed for a result in our favour.

If Hibberd was fit he would have played, same with Frost,Joel apart from Garland us the only third tall back that has played and played well showing all those attributes. I also saw him do a lot of those things last season as well at Casey.

Yeah I'll pay that Jurrah was a freak, real shame we didn't get to see more of him though.

The three most exciting players I've seen in the last 40 years apart from Flower who was just poetry in motion were Jakovic, Farmer and Schwarz.

Used to place bets at TABs get the ticket printed just before the race , say he forgot his wallet then run out to the car listen to the race on the radio and if he won he would rush back in and if he lost he would drive off.

I too believe Joel Smith will play , been our best performed third tall of the pre season, manic tackler and a bit of X factor. If Frost was fit he would probably play and Garland just doesn't seem to excite anyone these days.

He is still on the list unlike Grimes who is really the one who should be considered unfortunate. Where there's life there's hope for JT

Clarry's clearly been the best of our mids this preseason , with Salem and Brayshaw looking like they'll go up a level this year. Viney Looked a little subdued , maybe saving it for the real stuff.

Strange that Pederson has been left out of the mix. He can play ruck, forward and chop out down back and is more mobile than Pencil. Would be handy against the Saints

Frost is injured won't play
