And Ball. A very mobile, experienced ruckman who frees up Goodes and O'Loughlin to play other roles. He played a major role in Sydney's fine season last year until his season-ending injury in round 17. MM will not underestimate his potential influence on the game, hence my prediction that Fraser will spend most of the game on the ball as a counter.

Yep, however, Goodes would have spent plenty of time in the backline. Since his kneee injury, Roos has been playing in the backline.

Note from Channel 10 news:

-Rocca fully recovered

-MM in Sydney, coached by Broadbridge

-Know what to expect from Sydney

-Expect Hall to come out firing.

-Leo Barry fit and firing.

(Quartermain tipped the Pies! Good omen or bad?)

Just to expand on that, re: Rocca.

Ch7 news said that Rocca trained strongly today and is a definite starter for tomorrow's clash.

Don't worry then, i'll check it in Lebanon :( *Or Singapore even! :lol: *

GO PIES!
Well, if you are travelling first class ... maybe you can get Internet access via satellite and you can follow it live on Nicks chat. How good that would be. :)

Anyhow I doubt you will have signal coverage at that altitude and unless you have activated international roaming your mobile number won't work in Singapore. Best thing is to jump on the net - it's free at Changi - but I guess you have to get access to one - they are all occupied all the time - unless you can bully someone away from the booth.

Anyhow hope it will all be good news when you find out !!!

And bon voyage - enjoy your trip.

PS: They might show the game live in Lebanon .. ha ha ha :D

Haha thanks stoid and foreigner, should be an awesome holiday.

First Class ey?
...
$$$$
.....

All that needs to be said :wink:

Getting back to the main thread, If Rocca is fully fit and functioning well as a CHF it will take some pressure off *C2* and perhaps *C2* can then become a good full forward against the second defender.

I just hope Obree doesn't play! We lack fitness already, yeah let's bring in a player who hasn't ran in 3 weeks! :roll: :shock: :x

*EDIT* For the love of god i meant C2! :shock: PLEASE disregard that Mick if you're reading this :wink:

Surely you mean C2 not C1.

Ditto O'bree.
