Things I don’t want to see:
1. A windy day where we kick with the breeze first and have to try and hang on with a sub-par 2 goal lead in the last quarter with all the play at the Eagles end.
2. A wet weather slog where even if we win we look shot for the next 4 weeks after it.
3. A scorcher where even if we win we look shot for the next 4 weeks after it.
4. A loss.

TLDR: praying for good conditions and a W

Looking like mint conditions at the moment

I gotta feeling that Paul Curtis is going to launch himself back into the AA selection conversation. If he kicks straight and is a little more selfish around the goals, then 5-6 goals could be on the cards.
Holy **** he was driving me nuts against Collingwood. Don't bother passing it man your teammates are all donkeys
 
Souvlaki Diet - 3 a day 🥸
If you find a keto low calorie wrap, having 3 x Souvas a day is actually a rather healthy diet. Greek yoghurt, garlic, tomato, onion, lettuce and grilled chicken or lamb is about as good and healthy meal you can eat.


Unfortunately Griffen isn’t eating Souvas, he’s eating 3 x Halal snack packs a day
 
I definitely saviour any wins we get.

But I'm duped each time into thinking just maybe this was the start of something.

Spoiler: it never is

We will only know it retrospect.

No one can tell in the moment as no one can tell the future.

I was sarcastic, you were facetious and then I made no apologies for being blatantly sarcastic.

It is what happens after 5 years of the team being shit.

McDonald Pink Logue
Daniel Comben Hardeman

Stephens LDU O'Sullivan
Xerri Simpkin Wardlaw

Sheezel Darling Parker
Curtis Larkey Zurhaar

Powell McKercher Konstanty Hansen Fisher Harvey Corr?

Finnbar?
 
This game will tell us a lot of where we are at. A loss or a scratchy win won't cut it, this has to be a convincing win. More shots at goal, more inside 50's along with a 30plus win.
Agree to disagree Frank, a win is a win is a win, doesn't matter how it comes as long as we get the 4 points.

We've won 8 games during Clarkson's tenure, we don't have the luxury of stipulating what type of win it needs to be, we just need a win.

He is still the 9th best player in the comp according to ChampionData.

I would say he’s a lock but Xerri was so blatantly robbed last year.

I'll give you the tip - whether it's a scorcher or a wet day - given we typically win less than once a month, we will likely be shot for the next 4 weeks regardless of the weather
 
  1. Effort in all 4 QTRs.
  2. No patches where the opposition has > 2 goal roll on.
  3. Win the tackle count.
  4. 30 point win after an early arm wrestle where we rely on the Eagles dropping their heads before we normally do.
That rarely happens in any AFL games. No team has it their way the whole game.
 
Can’t see us dropping anyone tomorrow night before we have to name a final team on Friday

But the ins to the extended squad should be willphil, teakle and 1 of cooper/ford if rewarding form
You have just named our emergencies....unfortunately, especially if WilPhil cant get in the team..
 
one change. Logue for Corr.
And watch our defensive structure look like absolute dog shit whilst Logue trails 5m behind Oscar Allen, all the while pointing to other areas and generally looking out of condition
