VS WB

[older saint]

Reading the release from StKilda today re injuries etc. and the short break sounds like King out this week.

Interesting position then as I think due to injuries mainly we have been top heavy the last 2 weeks with King, membrey, cama and Sharman(who has played wing in Woods role but only serviceable at best IMO)

Out: King (inj)
In Jones - Our best in 2's

If they did go like for like with Hayes injured I wonder if they consider Howard as a forward considering Cordy more than holding his spot?
Collard doubtful with injury .

Jones sub, Garcia in 22, Butler on notice.

[SaintPav]

Sounds about right.

Howard might have to wait a bit as Cordy seems to be playing reasonably well at the moment.

I think if anything it would be the other way around, Cordy forward and Dougall back. Pretty sure Cordy played forward start of last year when King was out with the shoulder?

But I don't think Howard will come straight in this week, maybe another week building match fitness.

[Scollop]

Is Riley Garcia from the Western Bulldogs related to Hugo?

[shrodes]

Looks like King is likely to miss

Ross mentioned in the presser that WB had a lot of talls.

[SaintPav]

Is Riley Garcia from the Western Bulldogs related to Hugo?

Riley is from WA. Not related, me finks.

[Otiman]

King out, Jones to sub, Garcia to start. I don't mind that.

Hastie unlucky (again).

Ross also mentioned Schoenmaker and Keeler as some who are in the frame.

[Bruce G McAbee]

As someone said, Howard plays full back and Cordy goes forward.
Worry is that the Bulldogs are getting a lot of media attention right now and it's our 3rd game in about 15 days.

[Vortex]

Has Bevo lost the players? Some Journos saying it's only the Bonts support that is stopping a full revolt.

Could be a fascinating game.

[samuraisaint]

We won't get anywhere playing injured players - team balance is important but good form in the magoos must be rewarded and if Jones was the best in the magoos, come on down!

Well, we'll certainly be match conditioned, won't we?

[Scollop]

Rnd 4 on the 7th....Rnd 5 on 13th and now we come up again on the 18th

That's 7th -18th is 12 days inclusive

3 games within 12 days

Thankfully no Libba and thankfully the Doggies players are treading water until Bevo is sacked

[BadRossco]

Will be a hard game to win even if King was in the dogs have a superior forward line and midfield where as our defence is a little stronger all this points to a loss but anything is possible.

The world is our oyster.
Pearls elusive, but.
We just can't string a couple together.

Just about guarantee's a loss
This seems to happen to us a few times each year .
We play a team under the pump and either just scrape
a win or more often than not we lose .

Being under the pump from the 2000 journalists that cover AFL, daily, weekly, all looking for copy that generates talk, does that really put a club under pressure. It's the one common in AFL every year, journos going after a coach.
I think Bevo laughs at them, without showing them he thinks they are comedic.

Does everyone realise that for 100 years, when everyone played on a Saturday, that everyone played 3 games in 15 days?

Yep but we get 8 days to prepare for Port

[MC Gusto]

Goes without saying absolute must win tonight. 8 point match. Cannot be losing to the likes of the dogs and expect to make top 8. The bombers loss hurt this would be curtains in my mind

[Vortex]

The Dogs think they are a top 4 side and they certainly have a healthy core of proven top 4 performers so I’ve been surprised by some of our fans thinking we should account for them easy.

If they turn it on they will account for us easy but that’s the fascinating aspect to this game for the neutrals. If we win Bevo will possibly be sacked as they expect to beat us.

[The Fireman]

So glad to see Zac back in

Not surprisingly i reckon we should account for the dogs easily.

80 points you reckon?
