Question: Are the Cats a tad too tall in defence considering the predicted conditions? It's noted that North did drop a defensive tall for a smaller player.

Tags: Ablett - Atley upfield, Williams deep forward. Thompson to Danger we he goes forward.

Norths danger men: Kelly, Danger, Ablett
Geelongs danger men: Goldstein, Brown, Zuurhaar

My only wish for the game is that the maggots don't influence the outcome.

It's going to be a grinder of a match.

I'm conceding that Geelong are most likely to win the overall centre clearances, bang the ball forward, drop a player behind the ball and lock the ball down their end of the bowling alley.

This means were are going to need to win one on one contests out the back of the press in order to transition goals. I'm thinking Cam & Tarryn are the best candidates.

IMO if we are a good enough team and play the right way the umps shouldn't have a role to play in determining the outcome.

Unfortunately we have a habit of close matches where we have minor indiscretions and are a slave to the whistle.

Its an ad.

Why are they making so many viral martketing posts (and doing it so badly) right now.
I searched the tag on Instagram, looks like AFL and Telstra pick a particular team each week to make the posts.
Our boys are not the only ones who decided to try to make funnies out of it from what I can see. Here's Sam naismiths;
