Pre-Match Pies vs Dawks - the analysis, all comments here...

[Piethagoras' Theorem]

Don't worry Dave, no shame in getting dropped for the great man Burns or Rocca, he'll get plenty of opportunities mate

[burnsy17]

Yeah 2 very unlucky boys, but really, who else was going to make way for Burns and Rocca...?

Maybe Wakelin, as we seem to be fairly well matched up with them down back... but then who provides the level head in defence amongst the kiddies...?

[RudeBoy]

Let's see who actually lines up on Saturday. Don't be surprised if Pebbles is not one of them.

Bux tips the Hawks on ch7!!!!


Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

Rocca will be out to prove a point.

Lets hope Zac Dawson is his opponent!

[Mad Man Munt]

Judging by the rain we've been getting do you think having Rocca back in the side is a good move? He probably won't take many marks and he's rubbish at getting the ball at ground level.

Well guys (and ladies) Ive always said that we shouldnt brag about how we are gonna win this and gonna win tha becasue it bites us on the arse.

Well Im not going to go on and say we are going to win this but I will say this will be a great game. As entertainment goes I mean. Dont get me wrong, deep down I hope we smash the bastards by 15 goals but I really feel this will be a bloody good game of footy.

Im tipping the boys but superstition holds me back from giving you the margin.

[BBHS]

This is the game of the year so far. Hopefully it's not and we win by 12 goals .

[Tannin]

Us vs Hawks with two players listed with big question marks against them: Burns is only just back to full-on training this week after a long time out and Rocca always needs to be 100% fit to play the way he can play when he's on.

I have a bad feeling about these ins. I'd rather see Rocca have another week to recover full fitness and Burns come back via the twos, or at least after another week on the track at full pace.

Honestly, I'd rather see Cookie and Wellie stay in the side this week.

[Breadcrawl]

I predict Rocca out and Cox plays. Would also not be surprised to see another out and Wellingham in. Let's remember Sharrod was named as an emergency last week. As has been stated, Mick wants the opposition thinking about types like Rocca and Burns, even (especially) if they won't actually play.

So I wouldn't panic Tannin. I agree that this should be a ripper. Stuffs me who will win.

I just hope that if we don't get up, folks remember that it's a long season and Mick is building this team gradually to peak around September. Losing doesn't mean we have to dig the boot in and predict doom. I'll be content with a contest, happy with one that goes to the wire, rapt with 4 points, and ecstatic about a dominant victory.

Down with the Poos and Wees!!

[virgomag]

Go Pies and just give it your all !!!!

After a good win last week and our highest score in a long time the boy's will have confidence which is a dangerous weapon.

Pies by 17 points.

So Did Tony Shaw

Don't really like the changes.

Wellingham and Cook didn't deserve to be dropped, and we've lost a lot of pace. In saying that... Rocca and Burns are comfortably in our best 22... hope they both have big games.

[favourites 2008]

Did someone say wet track!! Burns

[ktszyu1]

Yeah Burns will dominate. It should lift Daisy too...
