The Month Ahead

[CatToTheFuture]

Am I wrong or are McGovern and Saad out with hamstrings as well? Because that’s massive for us

And cerra

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Correct and Salem will still be out when we face Melbourne also

Oliver just had surgery too didn't he?

Busted finger

 

[bombersboy]

Oliver expected to be available for Melbourne''s next game. Salem out for at least 4 weeks

 

[calder_daddy]

Yeah by Oliver isn’t expected to miss any games

 

[Wish Wellingtons]

Can't wait for three more weeks of excuses where every team we beat is trash and the pundits are still waiting for us to face a real test.

and if we do get beaten we are pretenders, as all in the media predicted.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

1 down. 3 to go.
Win all 3 and I'll be demanding y'all go out and get convertibles because LIDS OFF time.

Tossing that thing like a frisbee.

 

[Mr Meow]

The riff raff of the competition have been accounted for.

Time to weigh and measure us against the rest.

Brisbane (Gabba)
Carlton (MCG)
Melbourne (MCG)
Port (Geelong)

Big month of footy. Even 2-2 would put us in a good position to launch at top 4 over the back half of the season.

My 3-1 prediction is in danger. We could easily win the next 2.

 

[Hamingja]

I went 2-2 but I would have had Blues as the hardest game and we are through that. 4-0 and would have to consider booking a trip to Melbourne for the finals.

 

[supahoops]

Every chance we go in 10-0 facing the Giants at home, Dees won’t be easy, Poort will and GC could be a banana skin in Darwin but what a base to hit the second half of the season.

Win all 3 and it’ll be very very hard to justify keeping that lid welded ….still it’s a long year

Good Coast in Darwin is more than a banana skin

I would hope we just send the kids up and rest everyone tbh

Gold Coast are a good team and know how to play Darwin conditions.

We will need to rest players though

I posted a while back, if we are 9-0 I’d go with an under 27’s side give all those on the fringes a run at it. They’ve played enough footy together now, would be a great watch if not a winning one you’d think but we could take a full team up and get rolled anyway and have to back up against GWS. We owe GC a favour or two..

I think this is pretty disrespectful to GCS.

They're 9th but they're better than 3 of the current 5th to 8th teams in Port, Dons, and Freo

Suns need to prove themselves before i give them that much credit..
So far Suns season looks like all the past ones looks great at home especially early but away from home not so good and fades as the year goes on.

 

[Mr Meow]

Just manage a couple each week, as we basically have been unless niggles pop up with veterans. It ain't that hard...

Well it is early, and it is a home game for them, so even on that they're dangerous. I also think they're better than they've been

If they are going to roll us up there I would rather take the B team and rest the players for the following weeks, the Darwin games tend to take a toll on the players long after the game

I really can’t understand why any games are scheduled up in that shithole and I lived there for a year or so …for anyone that wants to attack me over that view

I have family that moved to there and loved the place but it isn't for me.

I think if we send a strong team we won't get rolled but it also won't guarantee a win. Need to take it as seriously as the Melbourne game

See it as a really good opportunity to rest some key players.

I agree take the strongest team possible but rest a few players espically the older key players

Often a team struggles for awhile after going up there the conditions isn’t very good along with the travelling
