Training

Training today:

Caddy did not train.

Dusty looks back to full fitness after that one session when he didn't look quite right.

Prestia and Houli both trained well and good to go.

Interestingly: There was hardly any contested ruck work and most game sim drills involved Soldo only whilst Nank did some work on the bag.

Big Tom looking in great nick but he will have a good match up in Darcy Moore on Thursday night.

The 2nd's who are participating in the scratch match tomorrow left the track after about 40 minutes leaving the following players in the mix for remaining spots:

Graham
Higgo
Stack
Ross
Kmac

So that leaves us looking for a potential, like for like, replacement for Caddy or structure tweak .

Like for like would be Kmac but I reckon they will tweak structure and bring in one of the other options?

Could be one more change if they decide on the one ruckman but even after today's strange use of Nank I think we will play two?
They won’t play Moore on lynch , betchya Roughead goes to him , and leaping Larry to jack

If Caddy misses, maybe Higgins gets a crack?
Has played well against the Pies.

Agree. Doesnt necessarily mean Caddy is out.

I am going with the one change from Round 1 - IN: Houli Out: Stack
As a rule at Punt Rd , if you can’t train main session before the game or even attempt to get out on track , you very rarely play

Jack to try and run Moore away from Roughead, to leave him one out against Tommy but Moore will drop off and sit across Half Back and pick Jack up on the way way back.

Tigers need to be smarter with their entries.

Tigers must hold them early and get some early scoreboard pressure on them, they will try and get a quick jump on us no doubt as they did in the Praccie game and as they did to the Doggies in their season opener.

I like it.

Jack is as wiley as they come and knows every trick in the book. Wouldn't be surprised if he plays a decoy role for most of the night.

The 5 minute qtrs suit them.
We aren't the best out of the blocks.
The first qtr will tell you who is on.
If allow duds like Crisp and Howe to control the ball coming out of our forward line we are screwed.
If Rioli, Bolton, Edwards and Castagnafield can pressure them enough into making mistakes the game will be played on our terms.
I just don't want to see Scared of shadows Sidebottom running around without someone on him.
A Stack bump could have them shitting themselves.
Graham needs to stay on Penderbury.
Crimes on meatloaf.
Big V on Elliott.
And caddy playing a negating role on moore.

has it started yet Zips?

We are kicking with the wind.
But there's no actual wind.
So we are kicking towards the MCC members stand.
Collingwood are confused.
Chol and Balta have started from level 2 southern stand..
In wrestling terms, they're coming off the top rope.
Best players. Poyas, Steinfort and Hollands

This isolation starting to get the better of you is it zippadee ;)
 
you drinking again?

Im pumped.
Big game tomorrow night.
We lose its over.
16 weeks of living hell.
Buckley walking around like a rooster for 16 weeks might be the most unbearable thing ive ever faced following this game.
We beat them, Collingwood will fall off the pages of the paper.
No more premiership discussion.
No more clips of Collingwood training on the news.
It will be as good as winning a flag.
Keeping those knobs silent for the next 3 months.
