Round 4 v Geelong

Round 4 v Geelong
If we can get over Syndey, Carlton and the Dogs shouldn't be too tough, and this will look very much like Round 6 2004 v Brisbane Lions.
St.Kilda unbeaten, pre-season champions v reigning premiers.

Bring on Round 4..... I can't wait to play them in a home and away game.
But yes like others said, gotta get past rounds 1 to 3 first.
But it would be nice to get to them unbeaten and then beat'em

Swans will be very tough.
Carlton are no push over, although we should beat them unless Juddy plays, and then it will be more of a 50/50.
Doggies will be fired up early in the year so that won't be an easy game either. Expecting a tough match against them, they are desperate to beat us and Eade will use it as motivation for the season.
And then the Cats is a huge game ... thinking of flying back for it if we are 3-0 ...

They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

Now yes the Blues should be better in 2008...and not just Judd, but because all those low draft picks they have stockpiled are getting older....
But their rucks are still poor and their backline lacking.

Their ruck stocks will be something special in a few years however right now they are nothing special, their backline is also nothing special, while they have a good (yet overrated) midfield we should still be more than a match for them, I am far more worried about Sydney than Carlton, but atleast they usually start slow...saintsRrising wrote:???

I think he means that Eddy is a rookie,...and we have no LTI's and so he cannot be elevated.Otiman wrote:Can fit anyone in the side if there is a job for them, especially taggers.borderbarry wrote:Otiman, how are you going to get Eddy into the side?

True. I have little faith in us keeping injury free, sadly. Or perhaps i'm still in NAB cup mode.bobmurray wrote:You can't just play Rookies because you have a job for themOtiman wrote:Can fit anyone in the side if there is a job for them, especially taggers.borderbarry wrote:Otiman, how are you going to get Eddy into the side?

Please..... Did Judd play the time we beat West Coast by 100 points a few years ago? He is one outstanding player in a very ordinary side. Carlton will need a lot more than a fit Judd if they want to improve.Oh When the Saints wrote:Swans will be very tough.
