Jaded No More

Not great conditions for us I would have thought

He’s a Cavoodle thank you very much and he is angry. He hadn’t had breakfast and I was chasing him around trying to get him to wear the hat 😂 Steven May would be jealous of the side eyes he gives me when I’ve annoyed him!

MCC lining up for walk up seats I think.

I’ve been staring at the same 3 pages of a catalogue I have to proof for an hour

My condolences. My grandma is also on her deathbed. It's a very tough time for a family to go through! I'm sure she'll be cheering on Davey, I mean Pickett, and he will have a great game!

@Bitter but optimistic this is just what this thread needed. Calming dog energy Bear is pumped. Magpies are his favourite bird to bark at! He was getting his voice warmed up this morning to cheer on the Dees

If the rain comes and then goes fast, and the deck looks like it'll be dry, do we make a late change and bring Tomlinson in?

This is the sausage talk all over again

Well I'm row A, so good luck to me

4:30pm is my sneak out of the office time so I can get myself game ready

BRB, off to throw up

What I want - Sydney - Port - Saints What will happen - Carlton - Brisbane - GWS

One painful meeting down. One to go. I am going to murder the next annoying colleague who asks me to fix a [censored] up. I DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE TODAY, DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING LATER TONIGHT?!!

Great, now I can't even blame allergies if my eyes water tonight.

He just had all the emotions right

Me before bed last night Me trying to sleep and not dream about losing Me this morning

It’s the same person who films the goal line vision then rewinds and zooms it in on their VCR.

Oh thank god we avoided Williamson and Nicholls. Two Melbourne hating nuffies!

We don’t need JVR, McDonald, Fritsch and Smith forward. Especially if Trac plays forward too. I really think Smith will play back.

Yes he’s a very good mark. On the lead. He needs a good leading defender. Not a tall who can’t run. May is exceptionally good on the lead for his size which is why he played on him before when McStay wasn’t in the team. My guess is that Hibbo will start on him and McVee will go to Elliot. Back up option is throw Smith back, Hibbo to Elliot and Lever to Mihocek. Gawn can float back to help nullify Cox/Cameron. If it’s wet it just helps us with ground level ball, which is our biggest issue in defense. May will take McStay

The experience in this side cannot be underestimated. This is an enormous game. Crowd noise will be off the chart. Hot footy. A massive advantage of a home prelim for the winner. We have gone for a very experienced side who has played a lot of finals together. Backline is looking far more experienced now with 6 premiership defenders. Midfield is entirely made up of premiership players, including Hunter, and only the forwardline is “inexperienced” with JVR, Chin and Smith. But Smith has been around a long time and played in 2018.

Even more difficult if Gawn is next to him
