I never see the point of worrying too much about Richo, unless you're worried about them winning it with behinds and out on the fulls.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with Marty, if anything? Is it just a form slump or is he injured? i really hope they don't put N.Brown on N.Brown lol. It was bad enough last week, but at least I was watching it and had half a clue who the commentators were talking about. Can you imagine what would happen if State of Origin came back in and Melbourne's Nathan Brown, our Nath, and Richmond's Nath all played? Chaos would ensue!

I think Form Mel_Kay. Had an average pre-season and then was a bit ordinary against the Dockers. Probably just hoping to give him some confidence in the magoo's and bring him back in the coming weeks.

generous odds on the tigers this week. Over $3. They were pretty competitive last week and really get up for us. Also think Wallace coaches pretty well against us.

Delidio, JOhnson and Foley are the worries and of course Richo and Brown look like causing someone trouble soon.

Hope Cloke plays, have a feeling Anthony might come in for him.

[quote="MargOZ"]So what does everyone think.....? Ins and outs? Match-ups? :)[/quote]


We are a very progressive team with what looks to be a very bright future, why then is someone like Ryan Lonie still being considered.

Egan failed under pressure last week in Brisbane,can you imagine how Lonie would have handled it given his track record? and yet he is still being considered for senior selection. A backward step in my opinion.

I reckon its the right choice to bring back Toovey. Just gives us a bit more versatility down back as i already think we are too tall for their forward line. Wakes may struggle to find an opponent.

we're talking about the team that finished a couple of games clear on the bottom of the ladder last year and they haven't added anything significant to their list.

look at our goalkicking potential versus theirs - rocca, cloke, didak,medhurst, davis, thomas and so on. we're also developing into a team where centre clearances are a strength instead of a weakness. the addition of wood has been massive.

the potential is there for us to blow this game wide open and get some %. shut down their few matchwinners and turn up the heat !

well i hope we win today.......Richmond are biting at our heels on the ladder and we're in 8th....a loss today would most likely drop us out of the 8, especially if Adelaide lose, they still have higher % than us.

I don't want us out of the 8 this whole season!
