Game Day Mt Barker Showdown

[FR0GGY]

I wont even tune in.. zero interest. just hope there is no injuries

How can there be zero interest? Surely there’s a some? I mean no one cares about the score but surely you’ve got to be keen to see Draper in the jumper and Curtin.

 

[Mutineer]

McAndrew is with us until March 17 I believe

Well that's when the Redlegs have their 1st trial game against Central Districts out at the Ponderosa.....Interesting to see if he plays with our SANFL team who have their 1st trial game against WWT at West Lakes on 28 February

Again

Dan Houston is a Collingwood grub now.

Theres always another one.

 

[KingChowder]

Is this game format three sixths, big break another three sixths?

 

[ftmch]

Don't mind the ultra cautious approach they seem to be taking with Cumming. Definitely playing the long game with him it seems

 

[Slime Roy]

Yeah I should have put a caveat on that.

I think drafting him would be the plan, but not all plans work.

I'd be "planning" on a Harding/Kerrigan type situation if I was on list management.

 

[Coopers]

I wouldn't trust our list management to get the roles reversed and whack the wrong player though

 

[Redline]

Is this game format three sixths, big break another three sixths?

I think so, A's will play for the first 3 sixths and the B's the second three sixths. Obviously there will be some that will do a bit of both but apparently that is the plan.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

Dont understand how anyone can say they have no interest in this game, I cant wait to get a proper glimpse of Draper, Curtin and Peatling in action.

I know right.

Why would you bother even being a member of a sports related team forum and slog through the 5 months of football-less offseason nonsense in here. And then when there's actually footy to consume (not just bigman reports), they all of a sudden have no interest....

I guess it's 1 way to announce yourself as a simple internet troll

SPP is back.

Add prev years draft Ryan , Edwards too

So, half a game each.

Yep.

I wouldnt be surprised if some of the guys play Q12 and 4, or something like that.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

cant imagine that would be too popular with the fitness staff, wouldn't it be better to get the half a game done and get stuck into recovery?

 

[kirky]

Thanks for sharing

My pleasure.

You have normal matches then below that practice matches (which each team has its own strategy) then you have these simulations which I find is just a waste of time to watch.

Reckon they should have one practice match then into the season proper.

Practice matches - yes. Simulation - no.

Lets just get the season up and running. Screw this crap.

I get that it doesn't mean anything as such, but the players will be up for it

 

[Alwaysacrow]

Theres always another one.

The whole team is full of grubs including the coach.

 

[Cromulant]

The whole team is full of grubs including the coach.

And the new coach

 

[Velvet George]

I get that it doesn't mean anything as such, but the players will be up for it

And it’s the first footy we get to see where we aren’t playing ourselves

 

[crows dude]

Every footy fan would have some interest. Footys back. The first time we can see our club play for the season. The first time we can see some new recruits. Im pumped. Footys back BABY.

Thoughts...

• Looking forward to seeing our new players in action, including Curtin who seems to have really stepped up a notch this off-season.
• Not looking forward to seeing which player the Port thugs will snipe, leaving them in concussion protocols until R1.
• Looking at the team list on the AFC website, I note that Sid Draper & Lachie Thomas will both be wearing #34, with Draper playing the first 3 terms and Thomas the last 3. Why doesn't Thomas have his own number?

It's a strange one that's for sure
