Our only saving grace in this game is that they will be coming off the bye, and generally teams struggle the week after.

That's about all I've got. We don't have the mental toughness to beat teams like Hawthorn and haven't for a very long time.

We really have to win one against Hawthorn or Sydney or our season is toast. After the next couple of matches it could be cue in the rack time. Very disappointing indeed.

Just show us SOMETHING to get excited about. Please?!!

This is usually one of their substitute "home games" for the games in Tassie, there will be plenty of them there.

We are probably more chance having lost yesterday, than if we'd been coming off a win

We need Levi to take out Sewell, Mitchell and Lewis when flying for a mark. We may then have a small chance of winning.

Carrots for Robbo.

Depending on the Ants - would consider Buckley for Lucas and Laidler for White, possibly even McInnes as sub if the fitness base is there.

It will be tough for a player to come up with only a 5 day break.

White deserves his spot more than most... not sure why people continually want to drop him

I hope I loose.
God I want to beat Hawthorn so bad. Smug bastards with the poo & wee jumper.

But...... Sadly,...... Well, you know the drill. Same old crap really!

Good point. Especially with the Hawks coming off a bye, will be tough for anyone to break into the side on the weight of VFL performances.

Oh yeah. Apple banned losers.

Haven't beaten them since 2005, not sure we're good enough to do it at Etihad Stadium.
I'll definitely will be tipping the Hawks but we haven't been getting smashed up by teams, so we might give it a red hot crack.
Hawthorn were challenged by Gold Coast for 3 quarters a fortnight ago, so there is a small glimmer, just a small one

If Gunston is selected, White probably stays in. Good match up for him.

Otherwise, I can't see a match up for him, and would rather the extra forward in Laidler to stretch their backline

I'm liking your thinking here Rhino, Buckley and Laidler for the 2 weakest players in our 22 from last night (Lucas & White). McInnes to start being considered, but I think Carrots will come in for Cachia.. maybe

Can't see us dropping cachia after the last 2 weeks.

Wonder if they rush back Rioli, and if so, do we bring in Joseph to make it 7-0?
