I just bought a standing room ticket even though I have membership entry. Strange but you can’t use your membership to get a standing room ticket. I didn’t want to risk turning up at the gate and being turned away.

If we cant win this by at least 50 points, we aint trying, really. This is our chance to boost our percentage bigtime, like next week too, against wet toast, cos % may decide top spot for us. thats a fact. Just massacre this rabble, take no prisoners, make up for last years soft cock effort against this mob. Just do it and do them ruthelessly.

Call me old-fashioned, but every game is a must-win.
This is no exception...

Win, handsomely if possible, but get the four points in the bag.

In terms of the West Coast game, I would select Ruscoe and Allan for the game- it is a big ground and they both are good runners.

Will leave it up to the fitness gurus to work out who needs a spell.

Just deal with North first..

Sounds like we’ll be unchanged from last week’s 23. Maybe Markov gets sub this time around?

Zero chance. Players are never sub two weeks in a row. Means they’re virtually match-less for nearly 3 weeks.

He certainly is! I've been a bit of a knock on Mr Burns but his averages over the last 3 weeks (12 disposals, 5 marks and a goal) are amongst his finest in recent times.



Me old mate Tix rates him as one of our all time great gut runners.

With Lipinski and Sidebottom, WHE is one of our most impressive endurance runners. Not forgetting Nick Daicos who is impressive at everything it would seem...

In 2018, WHE was a very important component of our forward set-ups with Josh, Thomas, Stephenson, Mihocek, Cox and De Goey... If only we had the services of Darcy Moore and Elliott on Grand Final day...sigh.

He has been such a constant thread in our play over recent weeks, did not see it coming for him to be sub.
