Preview Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda - GIANTS Stadium, Sunday 21st March, 3:20PM AEDT *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

[BrutThough]

Am I right in thinking the odds are a bit disrespectful towards you guys or do you have more injuries than I realised? Just thought you guys were a decent chance here.

Odds have barely changed since the fixture was released - we've been about 2.20 the entire time.

 

[skittlebrew]

9 of our best 22 out

Ouch...

I felt like you should have been a bit shorter odds until I found out half your side is missing...

 

[Diehard Saint]

Ouch...

Yeah, that’s what Winx said when he was hit by the golf ball!

Put a $100 on us for the win and that will change

 

[Fehring]

Should look something like this

FB: Webster Howard Highmore
HB: Sinclair Wilkie Coffield
C: Hill Steele Billings
HF: Higgins Membrey Battle
FF: Lonie McKernan Butler
R: Hunter Gresham Clark
I/C: Ross, Long, Bytel, Wood(?)

Would leave one of McKenzie or Dunstan as the sub.

Rucks aside, still a decent team with enough quality to kick a big score and ultimately win.

This seems pretty close. I've been told that we're going with five debutantes. Which means Wood is playing...

That team has to be very close to the mark.

 

[True Blue Saint]

Who is better, Hunter, Longer or Hickey?

It's actually secret Option D: Rix

 

[True Blue Saint]

This seems pretty close. I've been told that we're going with five debutantes. Which means Wood is playing...

I've heard the same.

I also heard that Snake was training with the 1st team jumpers on Thursday though, I'm not sure if the wet weather will change that though.

That's still a solid team. Wood, Smack and Snaggs are seasoned campaigners. Bytel is our next Jesus.

 

[MUFKilda]

First game of the year and they give us Poms the most difficult bounce time of all: 4:20 a.m. bang in the middle of the night. The alarm is set for Sunday morning.

 

[tomjoad]

I'd sleep in if I were you...there'll more than likely be a delay due to Brexit

 

[Yabadoo22]

Golden slipper cancelled.. may not even be playing at this stage

 

[snails13]

Nope you're talking sh*t Dude - 21 disp at 47 percent. Deservedly shown the door after that trash.

Umpires didn't think it was trash,he received Brownlow votes

 

[Squirtles]

Golden slipper cancelled.. may not even be playing at this stage

I was wondering how much rain would it take to cancel a game

 

[Ricmel]

Looks like it is going to be bloody wet so Max being out may not hurt us as much. I think the wet overall will help Saints more than GWS. Our odds seem overs although with travel and Saints injuries, GWS should be marginal favourites.

95% chance of up to 6cm rain on Sunday after 10cm on Saturday. That is close to 5 inches in the old......could be playing on a lake.

Me too. Early games a nightmare until the clocks change.

 

[Veer Right]

Dunstan could be a good fit this weekend as his crap kicking will fit in with everyone else in the conditions plus inside mids will revel in those conditions.

Could be worth a crack - although most of our mids are strong over the ball. Maybe in for Long off the I/C.

Play Lonie at the shallow end.

That explains why Jones didn't get named... cant swim!

 

[phantom13]

Jesus we’ve really stacked the deck against ourselves now haven’t we. 9 of our best 22.

It’s real, real tough now. Odds about right for mine

 

[KingsRansom]

Play Lonie at the shallow end.

Hes already putting in the training for tomorrow to play both ends

 

[lewdogs]

So who will be the midfield?

Hunter, Steele, Ross, Gresh, Clark, Bytel? That's seriously lacking in grunt. Reckon Dunstan is a big chance to play.

 

[Palantine]

Higgins might be useful in the middle. Pretty tough player
