Always better to play the lower ranked teams later in the season when they are cooked.
Carlton will be treating this, as always, like a final and will be at their peak.
Therefore, it won't be an easy game at all but we should win by 3 to 5 goals.
Anyone expecting a 100 point win is a touch optimistic... still hope that it happens!

Looking forward to seeing Lynch, obviously, the improvement in Higgins, D Rioli after a proper pre season, ditto Prestia and hopefully Balta.

No Caddy is a big out, do we have the midfield depth? He is normally good for 18-22 disposals and 2-3 goals.
dusty will stay mid most of the game with tim lench playing. dusty cotch prestia nank rioli jiggins shedwardo kmac graham lambo should be enough help around the midfield

EDIT: Just how far away is he, I wonder?
Best part of a month most likely, but anything that long term has a fair fudge factor.


Higgins/Rioli spending more time in the middle should cover him.

lmao that arrow flog who was acting all high and mighty is running his mouth on the blooze board about how underdone lynch will be and how jones will smash him
I thought all the Liam Jones stuff was just a running joke like our 'prestia late out' gag...

Turns out he is still on an AFL list, and might actually line up on Lynch or Riewoldt... :tearsofjoy:
Had to change my tipping.

The silver lining to eating humble pie at the end of last season. We're going to go into this hungry and wanting to presumably show that we are back. Last year's opener had a pretty lacklustre atmosphere imo, with the only proper cheer being dusty's goal in the last from memory. I'm looking forward to hearing the proper roar back. Not the conservative, murmur full of expectation after each goal.
