I've been out of the loop for a couple of days, what's this talk re Wells not playing?

Jacobs sub again? Surely that can't be good for match fitness.

Was thinking this morning, Currie had to play unless there was a monsoon hitting the G need 2 ruckman to cover the bigger ground.

Luke Ball is an interesting sub for the pies, wouldnt of thought he could be an impact player.

Just that, all talk. Never came from a reliable source. Just people speculating.

What's the weather like there?

 

[Lavy_Panther]

Thank baby Jesus.

Come on boys, get up and about.

Cloudy, been a few light showers but only for a 2-3 minute period. Dont think we will get heavy rain. Probably will get some light stuff off and on through out the arvo.

The poor prick has to run about 20 laps after they sing the song, like all subs.

think they might. Pies not playing real well

 

[ansonholt]

If that. .. As far as rain goes. Will be mostly dry.

Come and play ruthless footy like we did against sydney and we should win by a similar margin. North by 28 imo

 

[coffeelover]

Should be able to tell how they go as soon as they come out. Heads up or down , bouncing out or not . They really should hold their heads high today and really bounce out to start

Hope you're right too....really nervous for some reason about this one. Hope we make a good strong start this time.

Levi is a hard body. Basti not so much but he has done some good curbing jobs in the past.

His body is now ready to go... he's had 4 preseasons now. Its no different than say pendlebury.

 

[ozzyoslo]

It's the club's right to do so. No one on here had prepared for Currie coming back for this one, let's hope the Pies didn't either.

Bmac wasn't that great but he must get games into him.....we need to have a good look at him before we make a decision what to offer him on his contract talks. Sure he hasn't set the world on fire but we have to give him a chance to see what he has to offer (ala Black 2013).

With Jess White and Grundy, I can see Currie coming back in to give Goldstein a chopout......

cough cough, Ahem?

 

[ozzyoslo]

Yep Currie will definetly need to perform tomorrow, has done nothing this year.
Wood or Daw ready to take his spot next week who I'd back to do more than currie has

What has Goldstein done?? Currie has done something, learned the pace is hotter and that he has to learn the tempo. he didn't play because it was sereverly wet......thats it it was a good call. Collingoood has three physical ruck man that wouls have worked Goldy over, the he would have backed it up again next week with Cox and Nic nat.

must take some work load off goldstein...........we have one eye on sept already.

No no we don't. We've won three games this year.

Carn Roos.

 

[Roo-Boy]

Dissapointing 1st quarter is not the word

 

[ozzyoslo]

When we did play the final in Perth, goldstein was empty (along with the rest of the team) he needs a chop out.

 

[Rod Stroker]

So I'm in town for Easter and off to see my first live game in years.
I'm hoping for a better result than the last live game I saw which was aginst the Tigers at Etihad when Boomer busted his arm in a Matt White tackle.

GO ROOS!

I'm a jinx. That was a very insipid performance.
