Unofficial Preview Changes & pre match discussion vs West Coast - Round 2, 2026

[Gasometer]

Serious question: which time zone should apply to the GD thread? One for you Gasometer

 

[ferball]

Maybe we should use the time at the international date line Gaso.

 

[spicerFanClub]

So no injuries?

Nah no injuries. The VFL write ups the club does with comments from the coach are good - where I get most of my info.

 

[andana]

Game starts during the hottest part of the day.

Genius scheduling.

Gotta have a lead in for the tv news for the brain dead. Before another dull, boring, repetitious week of breathing in

 

[OMAN]

As the ladder stands right now, we play the bottom 6 in the first 6 weeks.

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

As the ladder stands right now, we play the bottom 6 in the first 6 weeks.

If we are a serious Football Club now, we should be 5-1 at least.

 

[I Wouldnt But Greenwood]

Would have loved to see Wardlaw come in for Caleb Daniel

Kerch v good last game v wc
2 yrs ago we played them twice We have about 10 players different and thank the lord for that
Next step is getting cohesion in the fwd line with newbies Dove Trem as they look locks to me
Zane at least looks afl ready now we need contributions not just not making mistakes
The Kont well we had Kanye for 10 years so that just how we roll at nmfc

A bit on tenterhooks to see how the occasionally miracle mid combos can really keep it together
Ldu broke it open last week
We missed a Lot of set shots but conversion was bloody good in game play
Keep the flag flying boys
go Roos

Genius scheduling.

If our club does not have a contingency plan to play in hotter than normal conditions, then that would be just un-professional.

It’s not rocket science to have the players drink more fluids than normal, salt tablets, pickle juice, ice vests etc. Maybe a little cramp later in the match for both sides being early in the season.

Alice Springs and Darwin is on a different level when teams play there. Heat and the humidity.

I mean .. summer has just finished. It's not like they haven't trained in hot weather.
