Next week’s game GC

Post: # 2000291Post The Fireman »

The GC play a similar style of play to us but they have all their players. They have made the cats look ordinary…we are up against it next week and we are looking at our first loss.
It will be the first lost for some of the boys and will be a sobering experience but will be interesting to see how RTB handles the game With bytel in and the loss of wood we really are not meant to win this one


It will give us a real insight into where we are while we are at our most vulnerable

If…if we were to pull this off…….finals will be in the bag

Suns won't win two games in a row.
They are a very different prospect up there.

Geelong climbed Everest last season and have about twelve players over 30.
Our team are young and hungry.
We'll win.

It worries me that the prophecy of a New Beginning may come to pass as they also hope to play finals.

However, I hope that we can stick to our game and prevail.

However,
Pros
- Extra Day
- They played in the warmth of the day
- 78.7% v 150.3%

Cons
- Our injury list - but we have had this for a while
- King getting a goal may have helped him
- need to shut down Lukosius

Need to trust that we can work through it and got to Adelaide for a top of the table clash.

We have an extra day recovery and they are travelling.

We will still have 22 fit players to face them (just)

I keep checking my pulse to make sure I haven't died. I feel a little like Bruce Willlis at his moment of realisation in The Sixth Sense.

Three rounds in, Saints top of the ladder, Cats bottom!

Steele was a huge loss, Wood was one who stood up to help cover, now he’s gone too it might be too hard a mission.

Unless we have someone coming back in, it’s gonna be tough.

The effort of the 22 picked shouldn’t waiver tho, that’s a non-negotiable.

Bytel and Heath looked very good in the magoos today just quietly. The Suns are a vastly different prospect up there. Plus I don't think they're a good side. They have some good players but they don't combine well, and they haven't beaten us anywhere much for ten years. I think they've beaten us once or something.

Paton in for Webster.
Heath/Campbell in for Wood. (Cordy back, Marshall to spend more time forward- Paton wing)
Bytel in for windhager

Windhager Sub.

I wouldn’t be opposed to Campbell coming in to do a majority of the ruckwork, allowing Marshall to give us a marking target inside 50
