I imagine they will put Lew-dog Pierce on the LTI list… I think he is at least 2 months off.plugger66 wrote:evo wrote:Good opportunity for Weller to prove himself.
Only if he is upgraded and that cant be for Jack unless the club is telling lies about his injury. he thinks he will miss 3 games.

Templeton or Weller? I guess the next couple of games will help decide.
No chance to go winless...70s sainter wrote: Hard to believe that a 140 year old club could go winless but if we lose the first two it is seriously possible this year . Steven is a massive massive loss.

If we dont win any of the first 4 games the wheels will fall off, membership will be a disaster as will the remainder on the year. Jack is only 1 player but on top of retirements and trade he is the teams 'energiser bunny' and without him they will struggle to maintain game momentum! Our start will dictate the remainder of the year IMO!

We have a good mix of old and young.
Its our home game, at Edihad, both teams have new coaches, we've strengthened in defense, weakened in midfield (dal, but added savage), got some more mids, and have a bunch of young forwards (markworth, sipposs, milera, white, lee).
Should be a good game. I hope the senior players are not packing up shop, they should be pushing hard, and the young blokes should be pushing them on as well. By the sounds of it we are much fitter than last year, so I hope to never again see that first round display like we did see against GC.
I still think we underestimate ourselves at times. Last year we were very good in some games and could match teams. It doesn't help when you loose to Richmond in round 2,3,4? because the umpire gave them 5 goals from free kicks (if anyone remembers that game, you'll remember how much bulls*** there was).
Belief and confidence is a funny thing, it can make or break you. A new coach can provide confidence, and with a few wins, anything goes.
Melbourne have a new coach too and he's probably better than our guy.lefty wrote:Belief and confidence is a funny thing, it can make or break you. A new coach can provide confidence, and with a few wins, anything goes.

Sure. But we were talking about the very first game. Hard to argue that Richo's a better coach than Roos at this point.magnifisaint wrote:Give it timebergholt wrote:Melbourne have a new coach too and he's probably better than our guy.lefty wrote:Belief and confidence is a funny thing, it can make or break you.
