Official Match Thread Blues v Tigers 24/3/11

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Okay folks, happy to have separate threads for Previews, Match Day and Reviews.

From the first bounce, this is the thread to be in.

If you feel the urge to bake the players, the coach, or anything else in less than eloquent terms, we have catered for you as well.

I expect to see many posters in both threads, such are the vagaries of AFL football and modern day Carlton.

Thanks. I found something that says 7:30pm on 1HD. "Live" apparently.

As live as you can get with a 7.40 start.

Does anyone know yet if the team is as selected or if any of the emergencies are in?

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Quick question - one of my favorites is Marcus Davies.

Thought he finished off the year well.

Was he close to selection or has he just been superseded by Laidler and Duigan ??

I don't think he's in our best 22. Was he in our 22 last year either? didn't we have injuries letting him in?

 

[Sin City]

More uni updates.

Have been in class for an hour and a half. Been on facebook and bigfotoy whilst the teacher talks about his life. Now he wants to take a break for 30 minutes! We haven't done anything!

And he's a Collingwood supporter!!!!

Whos the best on the radio for the pre game talk?

 

[james Dean]

Round 1 is always my most nervous game, even worse than finals.. Hopefully similairly to the last 2 seasons those nerves are eased by 1/4 time.. GO BLUES!!!!!

30 minutes break - time for a quick wank.

Found that always past the time at Uni !

That's gotta hurt.

 

[PooMonkey]

what are the thoughts on Lucas as sub? Will Ratts use him as a back up in case of injury or tactical change in th second half?

 

[parrot]

Really like the selection of Lucas as sub. He can play mid, defense or forward. Perfect.

Also very interesting to see there's little difference in the age and games experience of these 2 sides.
