I am really excited about this game! It will tell us where we are at.

I know we are missing a few (Maxi,Cloke,Medders) From our best 22 but I am confident the side we have named is quite capable of getting the job done!

We have the game plan and the skill to beat this mob, all we need is the mental toughness to absorb what they throw at us and to come out the other side with new found confidence that the 2010 flag will be ours!

Rapt to see the Sack named at centre half back. I really like what the selectors have come up with for this one. This could be the crunch game that decides whether MM is going to win one during his time at the worlds greatest football club.

Huge Game ... Go Pies !!!

I think the side looks really balanced and physically powerful.

Great to see Goldsack still in the team and listed at CHB and Blair playing in the centre. Also great to see Macaffer back in the side.

Would love to see Cloke, Maxy, Medders and Fraser back in the side but c'est la vie.

Also while I don't think it will happen this year, mainly due to his disrupted pre season, I'm really looking forward to seeing JA back in form and back in the 22. His presence as the number three forward and his natural skills could spell disaster for opposition defenses.

Oh Sh*t.......Vozzo, McBurney and Chamberlain.

Could be the ruination of what may have been a good game.

We need to be clever when going in to forward 50. Last time I reckon we won at least as much of the ball but then panicked and blazed away going in. This time will be different. Don't worry they would have been analysing and preparing for this one since round 3 , I think Mick really wants this one. Go Pies!!!

Pretty strong umpiring team there. Couldn't find room for McLaren.

IF we can actually take a leaf out of the crows book and beat geelong at their own game would be good.. not always boundary ride..

how many times did the crows go the direct route through the middle took a risk it may come unstuck but dared to get it in quick which caught the cats mids/defence out..

not fussed wheterer we get top spot would be nice but we just need to beat the saints and cats eventually to gain the confidence we can do it in for september..

Cats were under manned a tad and we know how good the crows can be, cats were still very good without gaz firing much.
