I think there is nothing to worry about... Port, Geelong and Brisbane all made early exits from the Wizard Cup and have had interesting losses, should be nothing to worry about come round one. Although, saying that it will be a big test to see where we're at against the Lions in Brisbane, really expecting a win to start a great season.

I need another box- 'just a little'

Too easy 8)

[riccardo]

I'd be lying if I didn't say "a little".

Then again, look at who hasn't played any of the practice matches - Gehrig and Penny, for a start - argument over!

[Moose]

Form is relative. In pre season, what is 'form'. Win the wizzo?

[saintbrat]

I guess you could end up with 100's ( go damo) or thousands(what??) of options or degrees for the answer

you could then break it down per player and need a numerical wizard to work out whether the concern is whole team, player, group of players, coach,coaching team, fitness, management orcombinations of the above


I will just stick to my little concern- thanks damo 8)

Yes, I'm worried. I'm not a little worried, I'm worried.

But we were playing the new recruits, let's see how we do in round one.

I think if we had a good ruckman, such as Michael Rix, who is a real superstar, and should be drafted in 2006, we'd win every game no doubt

[Gainzo]

Nah. We haven't put our best side on the field yet. It's great the new blokes are getting a run.

Let the real stuff begin

[Captain Impossible]

We seem to have experimented with players and positions more so than we did last year. As much as GT has said "everytime we step on to the field we give 100%" (or something like that) I'm not convinced that is the case this preseason. Intensity has been down and so has our tackling. We never really looked like we wanted to go all the way this year. Maybe he's conscious of the mid season form slump and wants to keep a little more in the tank.

The only real positive I see is the form of Goddard. Competition is hot for a midfield place

Would really likem to see some of Raph's skills...

[skeptic]

They have played a lousy brand of football all pre-season and have a few injuries... I'm a little worried.

Wait til rd1 though

not in the slightest

every time the boys were tested GT let things play out by themselves to see how they would respond, who would do what, how and where.

if you get the chance to watch a re-run of the hawks and the doggies game, you'll see exactly what i am talking about.

the money and some extra memberships would have been nice but no injuries is the most important thing to come out of any pre-season game.

my thoughts as well....

I already voted on the topic, but really it is nothing to worry about IMO

More focused on the task ahead and a matter of being fit to play on that final day IMO
