Game Day Showdown 44

[Capital Power]

Jacobs may be an out due to the birth of his child.

Had a quick look at their thread, apparently it's no real issue as they have a ROB, a CEY and an EMG. Must admit that does sound daunting. Would almost rather Jacobs plays

 

[Schulzenfest]

Nah. Jacobs being out would be huge for us.

inb4 Reilly O'Brien wins the Showdown medal

 

[bomberclifford]

If we can’t beat these campaigners with half their team out, we may as well wrap the whole thing up and forget football.

Port by 32

 

[El Zorro]

NOT cool

Jacobs may be an out due to the birth of his child.

Just what the world needs another baby ranga

 

[Andre]

Strike hard, strike first, no mercy. I don't want us to take until the 3rd quarter to fire up. It's too late by then.

We need Clarkson. His first words should be - I gonna teach you the style of football that was taught to me, a method of playing your pansy ass generation desperately needs

 

[simmo_bc]

A Port win will make my take away curry taste a whole lot better

 

[captain ebert]

NOT cool

well, I thought V was a pretty good show....

Probably a fur fey thrown out by that mob to confuse Ken.
And if he is out any other team would be able to take advantage. But not us.

 

[simmo_bc]

I’ve never really been too worried about Jacobs, Ryder is a superior player as he can play more than one position

Well .... it certainly hasn't panned out that way in recent Showdowns ....

Can’t argue with that!

 

[StuMan]

I feel like crap, but for reasons unknown I'm still going to go.

I expect to feel worse by the end.

Ok... jacobs destroyed him twice last year and ahould have been the all australian.
Also has always destroys us no matter who we put up.

Yeah, nothing wrong with Jacobs ... very good player.

 

[El Zorro]

it was actually!

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Jacobs out would be massive.

I remember when our much better squad in 2007 lost to the Crows in the second showdown because Brogan went down during the warmup sessions and it compeltely ****ed up our ruck/midfield setup.

Ryder beat him in the first showdown, more disposals, more hit outs and more hit outs to advantage.

 

[El Zorro]

If we lose this badly I am expecting a strongly worded tweet from El Presidente.

To be retracted soon after El Capitan tells him that it's not cool.

Bit like Shuey going down for WC last week?

 

[simmo_bc]

Too early to crack open some cans?

 

[OneGreatClub]

Depends on how anaesthetised you want to be by 440pm

 

[Janey]

Friends I usually go with won't be there, for legit reasons. I'll still go. I'm prepared (as much as you can be) to sit through a loss, but if we win I damn well want to be there to enjoy it.

 

[Shane_Mag]

Can't say im looking forward to the game. Feel a bit flat for it but if we can get off to a real good start then that might change.
