Will we have a full squad with all our ruckmen in r1....

Do we concede that essendon were missing 6 of ther best 18 also....

Do we concede our footskills are a worry particularly out of defense

Do we concede that our game plan is still very slow and defensive

These things to me are obvious....praccie game or not

Yes the Saints were crap, BUT the Dons clearly wanted to win. badly..wheres the Saints were just going through the motion.

So have a read of Baum's article and decrease your stress levels.

If they dish that up when the H&A starts ten I will get worried.

BigMart you won't make Rd 1 at this rate. Your ventricles will cave in!


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

No, not at all....i (like many experts, of which i definitely am not) believe we have a couple of big deficiencies...which i outlined...

These are obvious....thing is that nothing was done to change them...

I have lower expectation this season...

I didn't learn anything.

Honestly, I never ever have from a pre-season game.

I tend not to get excited one way or another until Round 5.


History shows that what happens in the pre-season, and generally in the first month of the season tells us absolutely nothing about what will happen in the last month of the season.
