The Roos need the cash we don't. Hard to pick until I see the squads. At the moment I would have the Roos as favourites on paper.

In the advertiser last week it had travis cloke saying we were keen to win the nab cup and premiership as the prize money is worth a million. Not sure if it is the prize money by the afl or incentive by collingwood.

I think the nab cup is a series the further you go on the more serious you take it.

I agree with that, in saying that you will see who is more serious by who they line up for the game. Money is not an issue for the CFC where it is a huge issue for the Roos. I expect them to name their best squad as our focus is on the real season.

Given the state of the Roos, regardless of our line-up it would be disappointing if we were to lose.

I'd like to see Clarke, Medhurst, Dick, Brown, Reid and Bryan all debut for us on Friday.

I'd expect Rocca and Bucks to be rested, while Clement, Dids and Josh are out injured with Brodie out suspended.

I think that it's fair to assume that Clarke will play.

North will be all out for the victory, that's for sure.

I'm confused. Is channel 7 really doing this live at 7:30?
What about Better Homes & Gardens?

Ah finally footy! I have been looking forward to this for the longest time and I am glad that the footy is almost here, don't care if it's the NAB Cup, footy is footy no matter what!

I am thinking we can beat the Kangablues, bring on the footy

sorry bout the other thread luke

lol

would love to see a few of the boys from last season draft, ie: Pendlebury, Stanley and Nicholls and wouldnt mind having a look at Brown. Hes had some sparkling reports from all over the place.

Travis Cloke and Sean Rusling will create a huge amount of intrest as to how they fair amongst most Collingwood Supporters.

Would be great to see Clarke too and would love to see Benny Johnson skipper the side, i believe R. Shaw did it in Sydney.

All the same i want to see us win the game and get a winning feeling throught the club and the younger boys.

On a fitness level, then I would back the roos.

Ah, daylight saving! In the words of Homer, D'oh!
Gotta get those drought tips off better homes and gardens. I assume this means that in the proper season, Friday night games played in Victoria will be on delay, not live.
