No Kerr, Hunter, Hurn and possibly glass, cox and priddis.
Add Cousins who usually tears us apart and of course Juddy not getting his usuall 30 plus touches equals a game we can't let us go past us. Cmon Blues
 
Mate, despite the names the Eagles have out, they've still got a pretty good list. I do think that with the outs, our team is much better, but have your wits about you. There are a few of their young blokes who are looking good.

Yes we need to win this game for our confidence after last week.
We have to watch out for Kennedy, had a good game last week.
When was our last win in Perth?

3-4 looks very nice indeed:thumbsu:
 
Of course we coud let this slip. IF we don't go out there with our heads screwed on and play with intensity and discipline we probably willl lose. We're not a good enough team yet to get away with anything less.

it was good to hear kerrs long stint on the sideline :)
good they having so many of their good players out :)

any outs is a bonus for us :) WCE havn't been playing that good of late eg v Sydney they were terrible
so lets give em a belting :) early
 
If we play like we did against Collingwood we can beat a lot of teams. But sometimes we would just switched off for some reason, so it really depends on which team we are gonna bring out.
 
If we didn;t have the injuries we coped on Saturday would make the game interesting we can't relie on Melbourne to keep on losing for ever ;)
if we can win this one and have a 3 game Buffer wce will be cursing they lost Judd to us they be needing him now ;) i'm sure we can still win never say never stranger things happen :D
 
If we cant/dont beat the Eagles this week, then what is the point? It will clearly be abnother lean year.

If we cant beat a team struggling at 1 and 5, a percentage of about 60, without their best player, second best defender, their AA ruckman under injury cloud, as is their best defender and captain then what will Geelong doto us in 3 weeks?

we beat them by 1 point
 
they still have some quality players and promising youngsters coming through so would not be cocky about this game at all.

think we need to bring in sentanta and put him down back, they could stretch up us forward with their tall fowards, ala the big Q, Kennedy, Seaby/Jamie Graham, the young bloke ben Mckinley pretty stong overhead and even maybe hanson if he comes back.

Think Jammo will be giving away height and weight on Kennedy and/or Lynch. Waite can take one of them but where really going to miss thornton....

we'll need to get the match ups right....but the win is there for the taking

The key is in the middle mate, that group of 6 forwards is way top heavy. We should ominate thm at the stoppages, and if we cant, then what do we look forward to for the rest of the year? Isnt that supposed to be our strength? That is also the rea tht they have lost out to (Judd, Cuz, Kerr). Iwould think that West Coast have plenty more to worry about this week than we do.

Match ups downback

Jamo - McKinley
Waite - Q
Setanta to come in and get Kennedy.

Bring in Setanta and play him on Lynch.
(Good way for Irish to get his confidence back, may even be able to run off the big unit)

Waite on Kennedy
Bower on Jones
Jammison on Mckinney

If Carlton let this game slip, they're more unreliable than freo.
Carlton should win on friday night EASILY.

Yeah true we should smash them in the middle, we did pretty well against adelaide we just need to make sure we finish off our chances, we should win!

But, its hard to be confident after our recent years....I was nervous against melbourne ffs :D
