Always feel we suit the bigger MCG better and looks like Metricon sits at about the Marvel size so may be difficult getting space.

We do fine at Marvel

How's the surface going to be given the VFL will play on it beforehand?

At least they'll know what stops to wear. My memories of Blues at Carrara are players slipping over - albeit later games or some rain/moisture. But it's a different team now, and apparently a great day down on the Coast.

Carn the baggers!! Seal the deal today boyz! Put that big elephant in the room to bed today once and for all!!

I’m glad this is an arvo game and not night, so at least we avoid those slippery cake of soap like conditions!

Bring it home gents!

Smart by the club bringing Harry in for this game, as big guys normally need a couple of games to find their rhythm

Walsh, Cerra, Gov coming in next week will pick up where they left off

I’d be happy to give MCG another week off. Badly need him in finals.

No VFL thread this week?

 

[Just Kreuzing]

JSos has taken his place in VFL

 

[HarryFlashman]

Camera angle for the VFL is superb, shows so much more & lets u see the structure & outlets, AFL should pay attention

Evening games should be banned there. Completely destroys the quality. 12-2pm traditional kick off in the beautiful sunshine should be a constant feature

 

[Stamos]

Boyd also in the 2s.
Assuming Ed will be sub.

 

[tarczonandjane]

Before I hit the train down to the ground, it is good to know that Thylacine is doing things tougher than Wickzki today. Glad I have that clarification

 

[ESKIE]

Bounce the ball ffs Arr0w

ECurnow & Honey held over.

Not playing VFL.

 

[HarryFlashman]

VFL thread is up and running

Suits our defensive mindset.

Very hard for teams to work it out of our forward line on the tighter grounds

 

[Arr0w]

Bounce the ball ffs

Bounce the ball ffs Arr0w

Very, very, very excited to see us up against the Sunnyboys in bright & shiny QLD.

System is working, reasonably confident, though it’s never a walk in the park up there.

No idea what is on the menu as yet.

Once again, very, very, very excited.

Cold cuts on a Saturday arvo surely?

Cold cuts on a Saturday arvo surely? And artsy fartsy cigs

 

[Benaly28]

Suns reserves very good side although ours is void of a lot of talent bar the obvious bunch.

Taxidermist said to call The Vet

Andy said he'd be right in two weeks

Menu please numb3rs

 

[passmark]

Nervous nervous.
Their midfield worries the shit outta me.

 

[Arr0w]

Apart from the continued holistic intent and pressure, what I would like to see is both our ruckmen to play Witts on his left shoulder, especially boundary and round the ground stoppages

Think it will be a slog until we break them down

Us by 5 goals

 

[Lukeblueboy]

The heat worries me a little!

 

[BlueLocke]

So King out, Chol in for the Suns?
