Glad to be a part of the team, Mick, and I hope I can do your call justice.

BTW, whilst I was at the North Ballarat game on Saturday, I listened to the local broadcast, and trust me when I say that you guys outdo them by a mile. They couldn't even get the players names right, even after being corrected several times. Etchner (Eichner) and MaHOney (emphasis on the HO) were prime examples.

I'll be logging in from 6 pm, but will be tuned in from start of the broadcast.

Will it be on Tasmanian Radio? Because I won't be able to be on-line at the time it is on.

Not unless a local station calls it.

I think Stereo974 broadcasts within a 50 km radius of it's headquarters, but I could be wrong.

They usually cut into the call of AFL with how Tassie is going on the ABC here in Tassie,just with the scores and who the best players are etc,its really annoying when they do it when its a collingwood game being called.

Shame, I was hoping to hear how it would be going, oh well, it will be on the news report in the morning on the radio anyway. Going to be tough to support with this game, Williamstown, or Tasmania, so I will just say, Go Seagulls, and Devils

I think the Seagulls will be to strong for Tassie.

B: Sheehan ~ West ~ Maxwell

HB: Betheras ~ Cloke ~ Lloyd

C: Smoker ~ Fletcher ~ Eichner

HF: Scotland ~ Richardson ~ Freeborn

F: Walker ~ Mahoney ~ Cranage

R: Richards ~ Shackleton ~ Davis

Inter: Crow ~ Hill ~ Hollow ~ Jarrad
King ~ Mullins ~ Nixon ~ Pearce

I'd think that Mullins and Nixon would be certainties, but if wet, Crow might miss out. Luke Jarrad has shown enough in recent weeks to maintain his place, and I think David King should be given a chance to show that last week was just a bad day.

Whatever happens, we'll know tonight the make-up of the final Collingwood team for Saturday.

Tune in at 6pm for a live call in the chatroom.
