Preview Round 1 2023 - v Western Bulldogs, Saturday 18 March, 7:25pm @ the MCG

[stEdy]

Dogs small forwards are injured/shyte

Laurie in isn't going to kill us even though he feels like a discount Spargo at this stage

 

[Toump Ass]

never heard of any of these campaigners, mcvee laurie.

from my useless memory i think most debutantes do ok for us? except the ones that don’t who have all time shockers.

just googled mcvee he’s got a really strong looking neck, which is nice. go dees.

 

[Toump Ass]

just googled the other guy. mfc website says he “could” have an impact in 2021.
he been injured for two years or what?
looks like an arrogant rich campaigner anyway, pretty happy with that.

 

[Dory_77]

If they're good enough for Toump they're good enough for me. Carn McVee and Laurie!

 

[Crusty Demon]

I guess this means we only win by 10 goals then.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Burgo would have prevented Fritsch from having his foot stomped on through sheer force of will.

Not only that, his foot would be stronger so its immune to stomping.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Laurie getting a game is very exciting. Ill be sure to watch now.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Not that Chandler fills me with enthusiasm, but i would have thought he'd be futher up the order than Laurie. McVee showed a fair bit in his practise games.

If they think he's ready then good luck to both of them Saturday

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Chandler and Laurie have been great at VFL level, deserve their chance, so many people down on them coz they didnt get 30 touches in a practice match. Hilarious.

I'm not down on them just that if it's out of the two I'd prefer chandler, they could both be in for all we know. One thing for sure old mate danster won't be happy.

Even more the reason to be happy they are playing

He really hates Laurie for some reason, too small and slow apparently.

Thinks hes fat, not toned enough like that power house Jefferson

 

[Toump Ass]

I'm stoked actually. I thought we were very conservative in our selections last year, very happy to see the MC put their faith in two campaigners I never heard of before. It's awesome.

 

[stEdy]

Chandler and Laurie could both play with Viney out, Fritsch out and Koz and Nibbler playing more midfield minutes

Pity he doesn't post here anymore. Would be keen to see a melt after Laurie fails to get 25 touches and kick 6.

Can't wait to see our small backs repeatedly run it out of their forward line and rebound every time their tall forwards don't clunk a mark.

He wouldnt melt, he'd deny he ever said he sucks.

It's not a pity that campaigner doesnt post, that campaigner was the campaigneriest campaigner ever and nearly forced me off these forums from pure frustration/apathy.

But yes your scenario is quite funny.

 

[danster168]

Super excited to have 2 debutants. They've both worked really hard to get there. I also agree with others in that Turner would be the guy I'd like to see given a crack.

It's funny he posted something on the main board about Grundy /Gawn combination being overstated, which is exactly what Garry Lyon said on SEN last week, it's as if he seeks out negativities.

 

[Sellout Scully]

from my useless memory i think most debutantes do ok for us? except the ones that don’t who have all time shockers.

Even if they have a poor debut it's not the end of the world. Petty had an absolute howler and got prompty dropped but he turned out alright.

 

[ZionMig22]

Let's hope Tomlinson doesn't get a start because of May injury

Ugle-Hagan won them the game last year with Tomlinson on him

 

[Daemon]

Has May injury been confirmed?

 

[stEdy]

Herald Sun seemed to confirm the injury but also that we were thinking of rolling the dice on it
