Jmac did a good job on the wing. Needs to stay there

How long before Bailey Scott is the first choice on a wing?

 

[Reagan Smash]

Realistically, we have been poop lately and I think we’re in for a flogging tonight.

I reckon tonight will be a real mental battle. Both teams will have reasons why they can win or lose this.

Will be cheering for a competitive game

Hmm, I think we might have only beaten the Cats four times since 2007.

One was a very enjoyable final

Is this the first time the Walker brothers have played together?

What honestly gives you reason to believe we're a good chance at winning tonight? I've seen this 'stop being so negative' crap every game for the last six weeks, and the only time it was justified was against the witches hats last week. We have been woeful this season. As soon as teams turn up the pressure against us, we fall apart. Why should anyone on this forum be optimistic about tonight given the crapshoots that we witnessed against actual AFL sides in the six weeks preceding last game? I'm more than happy for the boys to surprise me, but this blind 'be optimistic despite all evidence that suggests we shouldn't be' attitude is just dumb.

Literally covered my eyes for the last 2 minutes....was so scared!

Just hope we play our "new" style - Use the corridor, take risks, play an exciting brand.

Geelong will eat up our long, predictable, down the line "previous" style.

I don't think we can win, but playing a good brand will give us some positives and help our young players build.

Just watching some highlights of that game. Jacobs, Swallow, Drew, Firrito, Sammy Wright all playing. 5 years suddenly feels like a million years ago!

I reckon if we don't let Geelong kick a few early ones and control the game, we are a big chance.
Geelong are coming off a hard wet slog against Freo from Perth compared to our bruise free soft kill against crows.
If we take our opportunities early and put early scoreboard pressure on, the pussys will crumble.
We start well, we are big chance. $3 odds is very juicy in this weird season. C'mon Rooboys!
Goldy will have a bloody field day in the ruck against Stanley.

Where in my post does it say I expect us to win?

The only reason I can think we get close is that Geelong played a much more physical game than us on Saturday night with slightly less time to recover and a six-hour flight to get back to Brisbane. On an all else being equal basis we have no chance. We are playing a team where 25% of the players have played 12 games or less.

Crows provided zero pressure so it’s no wonder we looked great

Cats provide that pressure we will turn to butter

How many of us will be scoffing down dinner during half time break around 6.30pm?

Starts at 3.40 Perth time. I'll be sitting in my office "on a webinar".

 

[Rod Stroker]

Is this the first time the Walker brothers have played together?

The AFL are flying the parents up for the memorable occasion.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Lets go Hosie, lets go!!..

That's awesome

against ANY team?
That's not correct. We haven't beaten the Brisbane Bears since 1996.

Is that webinar about the Penske File?

 

[Jasemon]

Excited to see Maj back up again. Have a feeling he'll be that utility player again.
And the youngsters. Every game together is the chance to build a brand together. Very excited to have Will back and fascinated to see what kind of player Hosie is going to be. As with all of us we're looking for a competitive game and NO injuries.
