At least Stuey Crameri or Alwyn 'Superstar' Davey arent around this time to have their usual birthdays against us

Davey would get banned for staging before he made it out of the players race!

No Brock and no Garlett is a good thing taking the first two games into account.
Ignorance is bliss.

Yeah I understand what you mean.

Although admittedly I hope they persist with Garlett, when he's on song he's a gun.

Jeffrey doesn't like being harassed physically, he switches off big time!

But that is one of the reasons why I think our list of introverts is out of balance, there are few prepared to push back they all prefer to just jog away!

Garletts pressure acts are very important to our team.

He creates as much scoring opportunity and adds a lot of speed to a team that seems to be lacking a yard or two.  I would be thinking very hard whether or not its worth dropping him.  Although Walker has plenty of toe and could play his role.

you would think given the negative publicity regarding he not fronting 3Q time huddle, along with his first 2 performances, that it gives the club an opportunity to reinforce team behavioral rules whilst bringing in a fresh face. Hopefully Cripp's if he is ready.

Scum are on top for disposals in the comp whilst we are at the bottom. What does that mean for us? We'll be playing our predictable around the boundary game trying to stifle any Bummer run and they'll be looking to switch it through the corridor whenever possible which is how most sides cut us up. Malthouse needs to earn his dough for once and come up with something different to counter the scum run.

That's right PI2C, we are continually kicking to a contest (usually around the boundary) when we don't have players that can win the ball easily, while other teams are keeping possession and running to create the loose man.  *sigh*

Ryder out.  Will change my prediction.  Bombers by 6 goals

Im forecasting a win.

Simply because its the sort of thing our footy club would do.

Just when you think you're out, they reel you back in with an inspirational victory against an old foe.  Im predicting a less than 5 point margin to the victor and that the Victor will be us and the sole reason being is that no one really expects us to win.

I've been thinking about this for awhile now about how the older players can get involved with the current players.
What about the older players, the legends of the club come into the rooms at the start of a game and either walk around and mingle or just stand a watch.
Just having them there would create an aura, something would have to rub off. :-\
