Toast Stepping up last night.

Fantastic win. Pendles busted his grs out and was the main catalyst in the pies win. If we put in an effort like that I will be extremely happy especially with the amount of kids in our side and our back line being so young. We will struggle against the Fremantle's and hawthorns but I do believe efforts like that will see us win 11-15 games this year which is a good result for a young rebuilding team.

Be very interesting to see how we go against the cats who in my opinion are in a very similar position as Collingwood in terms of development. Only difference is their backline is better then ours

We couldn't be more opposite to Geelong.

They're far older than we are. Don't let the retirements fool you. They're still a very very mature side. Especially compared to us.

Not to worry Ed we have always matched up well against them as we do with Sydney, it will be a tough and hard match as this last one was but given the same effort as this week they had better watch their own performance.

Especially after N Brown went off

Do you really and seriously think N Brown has /had such a negative effect. Bit of an overstatement Dave.

Oh, don't misunderstand, I'm not worried about the Geelong game. I think we'll beat them, I'm just saying, the post I was quoting was saying Geelong are in a similar phase of development to us. Which couldn't be further from the truth.

No, He Came off made us Short down Back but it did not have an effect which was Fantastic

Nah, Geelong has a lot of inexperienced kids playing.

It's the standard corporate response mechanism Wooly - give no information that may concievably give competitors an edge.

In normal life I would be astounded if someone didn't realize this, however on BF it doesn't surprise me at all.

Agree with this, and also I think judging injury recovery times is not a perfect science either!

Geelong's side on the weekend averaged 26y and 5d where ours was 25y 105d, about the same as Carltoon.
