This game for me is a massive litmus test for us - we just have to put in a creditable and highly competitive performance in order to show we mean business. I'm not sure where we stand at the moment, having experienced lows and highs, and I must admit to some misgivings about the result of this game. If we are serious though, irrespective of who's in/out/injured/fit, I'd expect it to be a reasonably closely fought out game, hopefully (and I mean very hopefully!) just tipping in our favour. Go Blues!
Reality always wins in the end.

Hardly huge wins, not sure what the fuss is about.....smashed by Freo, Sydney out of form - badly, Cats result flattered the Pies and the Tiges - well, we know the Tiges....

Blues by 35+.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Hope is a chance and we need all the hope we can get. Pies by 3 goals unfortunately, and I hope I have no idea on the end result. ;)
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Enjoy Raven. We take that for granted over here. Hopefully the Blues can pull off a victory for you!

Fingers crossed mate. We are saturated by the two SA sides ad nauseum generally...

Cold ordinary weather here this week which I assume will be at the 'G come Fri night.

Yep last time we played Yarran with a suspect hammy he did it and everyone blamed him. Best to sit out for a week.
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Yes, one change. Carrazzo in, Yarran out with that hammy.

And Bell named as an emergency yet is also listed as injured and won't be available for 2 weeks... :o ???
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

What we really want to know is............ Carpark opened or closed?

I paid $20 and pre-booked a car park at Melbourne park.

Thats a great idea..Never knew you could pre book..

Best not to take a chance with Yarran's hammy.  We'll miss him, but Carrazzo's role will be an important factor in trying to counter Collingwood's midfield strength.

They have certainly rolled the dice with the selection of Williams; one VFL game since the pre-season.  Even if he is the sub, his match fitness must be suspect.
It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!
