Game Day thread - Round 12 v Essendon

[bfff]

I'm really looking forward to this one. It's a nice day outside, beautiful day for footy. Carn Freo it's time for a home ground spanking of the Dons.

P.S.

Pav for BOG

freo to be inspired by the imminent returns of barlow, hayden and silvani, with players playing for their positions! freo by 5 goals, i can feel it.

Hopefully Johno's hearing the footsteps of SNOS behind him and decides to play like it's the end of the world.. Who knows, maybe pigs will fly.

The St Kilda game was a beautiful day too . Hopefully this time the result will be different. I am feeling positive. Think the guy's will be pretty motivated to perform today. Balla to kick 4 , Pav 3, MJ 4 points and 2 fumbles

Hinkley the sub

 

[Deep_Purple]

Come on freo, kick their asses!!!!!!!!

 

[RickSanchez]

Stanton out Hibberd in.

Rather Stanton play.

 

[Nickos66]

My DT says YESS!!!!

 

[estibador]

Pav warming up with the forwards and not the midfield group. Let's hope it's not just a ruse.

 

[walken79]

Did they just say Stanton is out because he has a fear of flying?

Bit of an omen for me. Walking through the carpark I saw Barlow pull up. Tried to prostrate myself & do a Waynes World "we're not worthy" but he wouldn't have it. He acts like a mere mortal!
I have no idea what to expect today. If it's Saint Kilda form again I may top myself!

 

[estibador]

Fox just showed an interesting graphic - 'perception vs reality' - which compared Pav's numbers to the 'talk of the town', Dale Thomas.

Pav was ahead in nearly every category, including contested possessions, score involvements and goals. And yet Thomas is supposedly one of the best players in the comp at the moment, while Pav is having a poor season.

Lol E Shed! Great Barlow moment right there...

You will be able to tell if we are up for it in the first 5 mins.

I reckon they should stick Barlow on the bench to get the lads fired up. Someone will be out of the sidefor him next week, time to lift guys!!!

Dale Thomas' pressure is borderline fanatical. I wonder how they compare in 'pressure acts'. Let's not slay the captain. I'm hoping for a dominant display but i wouldn't use Thomas as a comparison. Thomas is essentially a better version of Mayne.

F you footy gods!

??????

 

[Split Personality]

I forget this is delayed on FTA. We have used our sub already

 

[go_the_dockers]

Mundy gone?? Leg injury? Any more info?

Right Ankle and subbed

 

[Split Personality]

It's a knee for sure, looks like a medial I think from the quick glimpse on the TV.

This is what I get for being sick and not going to the game.

 

[imperial_oz]

Mundy gone?? Leg injury? Any more info?

According to the radio...suspected broken leg...lower down..

Hope they got that wrong.

 

[Nickos66]

Wut..

Hinkley for a full game?? This is some sort of sick sadistic joke right??

 

[Split Personality]

On a positive note we are playing great footy thus far, playing on and running hard.

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

They said afterwards that he had ice on his shin. Surely you don't ice a leg if it's broken.

Must be some kind of ankle/knee twisting.

 

[Taylor]

Mundy got his leg stepped on when he was on the ground, assisted off the ground, can't put weight on his leg, but it's being iced, so that doesn't look like a break.

He was subbed almost straight away.
