Unofficial Preview Footy's back! MELBOURNE v ADELAIDE this Saturday Feb 22, 2020

[Kane McGoodwin]

Hmmm... I'm actually in Melbourne on Saturday for Tool.

How far is Casey from the CBD?

It's a little way out of town... but we expect a thorough match report.

 

[jackster83]

No mention of Fog in that injury report. Does that mean he's good to go?

 

[MRB37]

Will be interested to see what we do with the 2nd ruck situation

Might not be able to tell from selections since they usually go with bigger lists don't they? I imagine Melbourne might not be the best team to practice on either since Gawn and Preuss might not play and they'll go with Jackson as their starting ruck.

When did that come up?

We may try 2 different options in 2 halves.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Has Knight ever done a full preseason?

He just had to have a decent pre-season.

Imo, he is a goner.

im not even sad, he can play sanfl all year and be an easy delist, he is not of AFL quality

 

[TexForPM]

Might have to juice up my Kayo account again!

Who commemtates the games on kayo?
I'm thinking of joining up just cancelled Foxtel.

It’s Foxtel, just different method of delivery

Id much rather see Knight than Mackay playing AFL

 

[relapse]

I completely divorced myself from football after last season so I just got a complete shock that there's a game on this weekend.

Hopefully this game will be the start of me finding my footy mojo again.

 

[Huntercrow]

Looking forward to seeing McAsey tear it up in the back half. If he is selected. He must be the new intercept king according to the AFC. I hope it’s more than just hype.

 

[ad victoriam]

Lastest from Nick re Sat game.

 

[mistylake]

Tokyo!

Swine flu central by that time no doubt.

No way. Mackay is a much better player than Knight has ever been.

Saying that, I'd rather see none of them in our best 22.

Mackay is 32 next year. Knight is 25. No point Mackay playing AFL. He can help Wright with the SANFL.

Me too...

Yep sama sama!

Barely had an interest in the finals!

The latest photo on the AFC website is a cracker. It shows five players in the probables team looking at Bran Nue Mackae. Possible comments are;

Wayne Milera “You have to be ****in joking”
Fisher McAsey “Who TF is this guy? One of the top up players in the wrong guernsey?”
Luke Brown “The more things change, the more they stay the same”
Bryce Gibbs “Not even Carlton could pull off this sort of s***”
Rory Laird “So I will be carrying him again this year. Gee my back hurts already”

After further consideration Rory Laird is saying “ It’s going to be a very long season”.

Gibbs is like "C'mon man, I need a copy of those photos".

D Mac: 2020 is the Year of the Crow, boys. We can do it

All: We?

Footy has been back for 2 weeks

It doesn't officially come back until I start complaining about start times.

Will be interested to see what we do with the 2nd ruck situation

My bet is that we’ll go traditional for as long as we can. It’ll be Tex, Lynch, Fog and either Himmelberg or Frampton. It’ll take weeks of watching opposition waltz cleanly out of our 50 before we bite the bullet and drop the youngest tall forward that’s not the back up ruck.

But that’s 2019 thinking, it’s 2020 and there’s hope that we’ve changed. Forward line speed and Mackay selection are the 2 early pointers that interest me.
