[MagpieJoel]

I thought only a few were going yesterday and the bulk are flying today?

Correct

 

[CFC2010]

One more sleep......I can't wait to get on that plane...….especially reading that.

 

[Copeland]

And no Gaff or Nic Nat for the eagles.

But they wont be back.

 

[Morganashlee]

So they weren’t on a delayed flight, they are still in Melbourne?

That’s great lol what an absolute farce

Let’s hope their’s lots of running. Until the end of the game in fact.

I just can’t see any scenario where WC get enough entries from their mids to kick a winning score. It won’t happen.

 

[Horaceg]

Thanks Madgen, you did a solid job and a tough one, keep it up opportunity will come.

I just can’t see any scenario where WC get enough entries from their mids to kick a winning score. It won’t happen.

Just make sure we make everything count and don't blaze to McGovern again. Make him accountable early will go a long way for us

 

[Rusty Beam]

On Sen Bob’s been on our bandwagon all year even through the rough patches when our form fluctuated.

He sees something in the comradery, consistency of effort and selflessness that reminds him of the 2016 dogs.

 

[Rohan25]

Four changes for each side since our round 17 matchup.

Pies In:

Aish, Cox, Goldsack and Treloar
​

Pies Out:

Crocker, Daicos, Moore and Scharenberg
​

WCE In:

Barrass, Ryan, Sheed and Vardy
​

WCE Out:

Gaff, Naitanui, Schofield and Waterman​

All up that’s a good result for us. We get Sier for the full game as well, it made a difference without him in the second half that day.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Any words on the flight?

 

[TradeDraft]

For me, it would be:

Goldsack in for Murphy

Howe in for Oxley

Treloar in for Aish.


I like Aish a lot, but he is similar to Mayne in style, but Mayne has runs on the board this year and the defensive game.

Aish is better and Mayne was Lucky with that Aish did his Knee.

Darling and Kennedy get Madgen and they would kick 10 Goals on Him

 

[TradeDraft]

Any words on the flight?

AFL Sabotage

 

[Morganashlee]

Any words on the flight?

Langdon and Pendles appeared to be on a flight just before

 

[MightyRoar]

Christ the weather is shithouse over here atm.....pissed down throughout the night and again this morning with showers expected throughout the day and possibly tomorrow......that's not such a bad thing though, I think the conditions will work in our favour

Here's an article on the delayed flight for those interested: http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-09-06/flight-chaos-scuppers-collingwoods-early-arrival-plans

It affected a group of players (Scott Pendlebury, Tyson Goldsack, Adam Treloar, Brodie Grundy, Taylor Adams, James Aish, Mason Cox, Travis Varcoe, Tom Langdon, Brayden Sier, Brayden Maynard, Levi Greenwood and Jack Crisp) looking to arrive early in Perth. The delay caused them to get in at 3am. The rest of the team is flying over today.

Work is going to go so slowly today

 

[sideswipe]

I'm amazed in this day and age for finals or interstate games altogether clubs don't have private chartered jets especially to Perth.

Even if a club wanted to I think the AFL's contractual arrangements with Virgin might prevent them from doing so. Part of the agreement is to fly all the flights and get named as the AFL's official partner in the sky or some other similarly terrible advertising line.

Flight delays happen - they are preferred over crashes.

Work is going to go so slowly today

I won't be able to sleep at work tonight I'll be too excited
