Primetime to open the season v the Cats in their redeveloped stadium. Will be a big test, but if you want to play the Cats at Kardinia Park it'd probably be in Round 1 when teams are still figuring things out.

Saints by 10 goals.

This is in my top 3 games i want to win this year.

Had enough of Geelong and their Government lobby money pit of a ground giving them advantages.

Ross will have them ready

AFL gives us a layup win to start the season. Who will we rest for this game?

 

[The Jack]

4 points and an early % booster.

Lock it in.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

As a local I can confirm weather looks okay however the teams are yet to arrive at the ground.

I prefer this kind of game first up than getting a potential banana peel against a bottom four projected side. Cats aren’t what they’ve been for so long anymore maybe, but it’s as a good a home deck advantage as there’s ever been and we need to come to play. A win of any margin will be a huge launch into 2024.

Saints by 9, J. Steele 3 votes.

Kent Kingsley to kick 8

As he is 45 years old. He should not over exert himself. I think 4 goals will be plenty.

We beat them easily end of last year, nothing suggests that the same result this year.

Their new players will better....ahhh so will ours....no boom recruits that will add 3 goals however Kardinia Park is a hard ground to play, it is very long and narrow but if we link up with speed through the corridor it will not be a problem.

Arie for rising star and 15 from the D50 square then.

 

[BigMonty]

With open end at the North the strong North wind made that possible long bombs from 70m on the breeze anything was possible.

New stand will block that sadly so it will be much more swirly than previous years.

Cannot wait for Brian Taylor to say 80m out ShoennnnnnnnnMakerrrrrrrsssssss.
ShonnnnnnnnnnMakerrrrrrrsssssss.

Gees that was something special

Dead set counting down the days. King to have a night out and make a statement

 

[Holy Hunter Clark]

Can't wait for this one, will be going with the in-laws and more than likely be in the Geelong social club function room. Can't wait to stir the pot

No one will tip us round 1, the boss will use that as ammunition no doubt!

Expecting extended squads to be released tonight.
Can anybody tell me what times training?

Whisper from KP that there’s some doubt about Dangerfield.
Apparently carrying WoE.

The word done here from within the shadows of GMHBA Stadium is that the ageing star may have made the wrong move in deciding to play on one more season.

 

[sunny3193]

Update on Dangerfield.
Long way out but apparently no quick fix for his shoulders/WoE issue.

Saints by 59 points.

I think we will miss Dangerfield. He had 13 disposals and 8 clangers when we played them last year.
