[Strapping Young Lad]

[The Spirit of Cricket]

I've heard it's going to be in Craigieburn, whether that's true or not I dunno. Hope it is though cos the ground is within walking distance!

Hope its in Coburg as i can watch over the back fence. Im fairly sure Coburg played their first game back on the Coburg city oval last weekend.

Coburg web site has them facing up to Preston.

Scratch match at Ikon Park against a composite team representing Carlton & North Melbourne

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Great news

 

[streetspirit]

My brain still does a double take and reads "S Mitchell" as the new coach suddenly taking a player-coach role. Old habits.

 

[The BIG X]

What time today at Icon Park??

 

[scout]

It's already underway, an update from around 30 mins ago

[Mojo]

Wait, so we're not even playing a real team? Just a side thrown together?

 

[hardway]

No Callow?

Not like it's a side of VFL listed players and no names.

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

J Cunico and J Cucinotta are pokemon evolutions of one another, surely

[WWSD]

No Callow?

I think it’s just the players coming back from injury like Lewis, Mitchell who are playing. Callow doesn’t really need to build any match fitness.

Surprised Downie isn’t turning up to make his case

just to follow up on this, in the above Sam makes it clear that Saunders and Downie are just being managed through a long season as first year players.

 

[Big Hotdog]

He is such a professional.
He is capable of big picture thinking.
Very happy that we have a man like this to lead us post Clarkson.

Yup no point playing those guys in a scrimmage. Give the game time to box Hill guys who haven't had many chances. Stronger support players will make our afl players better.

Could we have been resting a few who may get a call up with a 6 day break?
