Thought we would play more kids, it's pretty close to last years sqaud minus Burnsy, Goldy and a few

I'm so disappointed. Wellingham, McCarthy and Wood all not playing. They were the 3 I most wanted to see out there other than Dawes and Anthony.

Thought you guys might like a look at where the Pies will be playing tomorrow (courtesy G-Earth).

We've been told that one of the polo fields is going to be used, and my tip is that it may be the big one (looks double size) in the bottom right of the image. But they make use of the one up near their main stands and shrink the playing area. Who would really know.

If they get the 7-9,000 there to watch they'll have to have a fair number of temp stands put up but this Ghantoot place is pretty well heeled (Kings and Princes cavort around there on their polo ponies and wager big-time on the races too) so this little infrastructure issue isn't going to bother them.

The game will be a cracker anyway. Go Pies!!

you can see Sam Isles on the bench if you look South West enough. He's wearing Zinc Cream on his ears.

mmmmm haha!

looking at the squads, we have a much more senior list playing than the crows. We should win. Will be disapointed if we don't perform well, but by no means not the end of the world. Its just a NAB game.

Was hoping to see more kids/newbies too.

Didn't think MM was playing Rocca cos on the new interchange rule and he was underdone!??????

Only seems about a month ago that the season finished for me. Time flys when your having fun/busy.

Considering if we lose our next match will be in Albany Western Australia and if we win we will probably play at the Dome I think the club would be pretty keen to get over the line and then come home for the next game.

Latest Betting head to head

Collingwood - $1.65
Adelaide - $ 2.10
The odds seem about right,but I wouldnt bother ponking any money either way on the result

mx had a good spread about the game and the ground. ground size = 155m x 136m, td = 160m x 129m. had to erect commentary box, stands, goal posts. it was just an empty field.

ch7 have flown in 46 crew and 10 cameras, so hopefully the coverage is up to scratch.

ch7 have flown in 46 crew

And let's hope at least one of them can get it right.

They should see if the gaffer or boom operator are any chop. Couldn't be any worse than Watson or that boofhead Schwartz.
