I like the opening set of games, both opposition clubs are ones we should be on par with.

a game at Casey is good for the club too.

 

[CowboyFromHell]

Happy with that. 3 out of 4 of the games are in Melbourne and against opposition that will a good test for us to see how we are travelling.

 

[Flyswatter]

plus did I see in the Jesse Hogan thread that he's allowed to play? that'll be a bonus.

Really, we get to play round 1 of the NAB cup in Melbourne against other Victorian teams? This must be a mistake, someone report this error to the AFL ASAP

Richmond and North in the first round. I like that. Cannot wait.

Like how we beat Collingwood at etihad last year? I won't be taking too much of our pre season form into the real season. I just reckon it's a wank. Each club should play 2 'friendly' games, and then get straight into it.

Probably our best win since 2006.

Essendon game when they were 8-1?

Tongue firmly in cheek mate. I actually forgot about that Collingwood game before it was brought up.

I also enjoyed the Brisbane win early in 2010 (?) when they were on a roll, and of course the Fremantle and Brisbane games in 2008.

Oh, Etihad. . .
