Game Day Rd 1, 2024, GWS v North Melbourne (Bull 100 v Josh Kelly’s Dog’s 200 milestones) Gameday Thread

[Twinkletoes]

GWS, weary and wallowing in their own bathwater after knocking off the reigning premiers versus a young but fresh North Melbourne side eager to surprise the pundits.

Looooong odds but I’m hoping for a committed well organised hard at it competitive performance at the very least and we should know where we’re at.

F*** it, North by a point.

 

[Devington]

Really keen to see how LDU and Zurharr do now that it's the real deal, Sheez and the Warlord in year 2. Fisher and Stephens exemplifying the change in ball movement, Xerri being the numero uno ruck, and just generally if the mids can pressure enough and the backs gel enough to prevent onslaughts by the opposition when they have ascendancy.

I'm glad footy is back and we can stop arguing over political/cultural issue #2551 and instead be much more civil as we argue about which of our players is the biggest shitmen :sternlook

It's CCJ

 

[Mr north man]

Just want this club to be competitive whatever the result and not get bend over and spanked by 10 goals.

 

[Rod Stroker]

So GWS get stronger.

And Phillips isn't in our best 26. Interesting.

 

[DuckYeah]

Best team we have put on the park in a while. Quietly confident. Go you ****ing roos!

 

[Hojuman]

Die-hards up early

Seen glimpses pre-season, show us some real stuff North and make us really believe.
North by 15 points.

Early bird catches the worm. 530 is a sleep in.

 

[Kanga Glory]

If we're in the game in the 3rd quarter , I think that's a good sign.

 

[R00StaR]

Are we there yet?

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

Far out where did the off season go.

Although quietly excited that footy is back, I will miss the peace and ease the off season brings.

Already brewing creek water guts for the next 6 months.

LETS GO NORTH! COMPETE for 4 quarters and that's a win.

its on here too live in the early morning here (will watch the first quarter of the game, and Coach Sissy will watch with me)

 

[Chadwiko]

Can't wait to watch Will Phillips today after his good efforts in the two AFL preseason games, and after Clarko singled him out at the fan day as someone who has really stepped up!

Agree, also look at the players in the vfl. Strongest squad in the last 5 years

 

[DuckYeah]

They overhyped the Orange teams win against the ReIgNiNg PrEmIeRs last year. BTW those ReIgNiNg PrEmIeRs were no where near the best side of the comp, they pulled that flag from their arse with help from the umpires in the prelim and the GF. Anyway.

Lets not forget, if it weren’t for our staff not being able to count interchange rotations, we would have knocked off Shitney last season.

We are absolutely in with a sniff to knock off the Orange team today.

 

[DuckYeah]

Last season we shouldn’t have lost to the chicken hawks x1, wet toast and shitney.. that would have put us at 6 wins. We should be a 9-10 win team this year. Fair dinkum

 

[Disco Dew]

i reckon we’re a sneaky chance today. I dunno how to explain it but I’ve just felt a vibe this preseason around the club. It feels different (good different) than the last couple of years.

North by 2 points. Zoohar to kick a bag in his 100th

Go Kangas!!!!

Feels better than starting another year as a sad sack of sadness. Get on board choppydiggy, we’re on the up!

 

[Gasometer]

Collingwood’s form……..

 

[Sillygit]

Wanna see the game plan in action, warts and all. Though it does leave the possibility of getting scored against, it also greatly increases our chance of scoring chains of goals. Thats something distinctly lacking in the past. Then it can be further developed to improve the defensive side of things/players in those roles.
