Maybe but Docherty is their best defender. makes sense to put your best defender on the oppositions best forward

Then you realize how ridiculous it would be to put Docherty (187/87) on Daniher (201/95) then?

Didn't factor in height but you are right

Lock Joe in for a bag Round 1. Can't wait to see how he goes against Zac Williams

I'd prefer not to play Joey at this stage. But im an old fashioned kind of guy.

 

[Spud Patrol]

You've had a life.

Much as I thought I did, it may not be the case.

Surprisingly hypey for a preseason game.

I'm always wary about preseason games. It usually indicates how we start the season as a group or individuals. The 3rd quarter meltdown every week of the first half started from the very first preseason game.

Feel pretty good about this one though. Just want to see how Shiel fits in and how Daniher goes.

Fun fact Eagles lost to Fremantle by 60 points in their late JLT game, not sure what that indicated for their year

Is this televised at all?

Fox I think have it. Kayo maybe.

Fox I think have it. Kayo maybe.

Kayo supposedly have it, although at this stage of the week I haven't figured out how to get it to show up an 'upcoming event'. But it better be available!

AFL on Kayo

I’m not saying all results matter. Obviously a bunch of kids won’t perform as well as experienced players. Sometimes it can start a trend that carries on to the start of the season. I don’t believe it is as useless as others except for maybe Sydney’s form.

I expect us to perform close to capacity in the second JLT game. This one will probably have a lot of players being on restricted minutes so I’m not too worried about results really.
