Ugh that's really not a great time for me... or a great place... why no Etihad?

Persevering Saint · Mar 11, 2012

Just what we need, after a week in the rain followed by a week in the heat, and travelling across the country, to boot.

Pain. Lots of pain coming for us this week.

AFL have really done us no favours this pre season. FFS a short week coming back from a 35 degree Perth game. The result is irrelevant but the players preparation is all over the place.

Is this a practice match or still NAB cup ?

Practice match I'm guessing, since we've been eliminated from the NAB cup.

NAB Challenge, but still a practice game.

Collingwood have been woeful in their games.

shaan1993 · Mar 12, 2012

reckon theyll give the 2nd year youngsters a chance like sam crocker , tom curran , jackson ferguson and archer, theyve been in the system for a couple years and have not had not much game time in the nab cup last year and this year, let alone none for jacko, im really curios and interested on what they can do, just give em a chance to shine

stkildathunda · Mar 12, 2012

Highly doubt we'll see many changes, especially as Watters is concerned with lack of fitness due to missing an entire game. They all need more time in their legs.

Archer is injured shaan, so wouldnt be playing anyway. Saw Ferguson play at Sandy and wasnt impressed at all, is much further back then i expected him to be.

1873 United · Mar 12, 2012

I'd like to see Armitage given greater responsibility, as well as Ross in for Geary.

Less emphasis on passing inside fwd 50, and take more shots

Plugger35 · Mar 12, 2012

You would think both teams would be playing strong line ups this week with it being the last proper practice match before the season starts.

Quite a few of our senior players looked rusty against West Coast after missing a game against Essendon so could probably do with another hit out.

Persevering Saint · Mar 12, 2012

Admittedly, it was hard to look rusty on that night for a Victorian team. Utterly ridiculous - freezing ourselves in the wet one week, frying us the next.

AFL can be just so thoughtless.

SamFisher25 · Mar 12, 2012

visy park WTF! why not seaford?

L_W_P · Mar 12, 2012

Are you kidding? Seaford?

You do realise that the Pies are coming back from Adelaide, yes? No way can the AFL then expect them to turn around in just 1 week and drive all the way out to Seaford...

Squizz · Mar 13, 2012

I'll probably head along if I can sneak out of work. Anyone else doing a report / progress scores? (don't want to double up if someone else is doing it).

stkildathunda · Mar 13, 2012

For those who cant attend Saints challenge match against Collingwood on Friday Night, it appears 1116 SEN will be broadcasting the match.

ULTIMATE_WARRIOR · Mar 13, 2012

I thought originally the AFL was going to make all NAB Round 4 clashes on areanas that were going to be used during the season proper? Such as Etihad Stadium in this case. So much for that I guess.

Its a tough time for the punter, 4pm on a work day. Lucky for me I do a bit of work at VISY PARK and can schedule that in for say...2:30ish Friday

Excellent! :thumbsu:

The more the merrier Squizzy. If it's broadcast on SEN it's probably easier for someone from home to update scores and goal kickers but we'd appreciate the player updates from as many people as possible who are at the game.

Yeah, would be great if someone else can do this.

Armitage2Riewoldt · Mar 13, 2012

There's a good chance I'll be going to the game. Not sure my reporting skills will be up to Squizz's standard. Nor my chances of recognising half our youngsters but I will provide as much feedback as I can

Provided I'm not drunk. Which is no certainty!

Playing near the city rather than 5 minutes from bloody Tassie, what an outrage!

StFly · Mar 14, 2012

I like that members will gain free GA admission, like Visy Park has "premium" areas they're upkeeping to gawk at and remember the times when they were a venue and it was actually used.

Interesting that Gram and Ray have been left out. Good to see Saad in. I would think Simpkin is the full back of choice for Round 1. Be a good first up test against John Butcher.
