Surely that's not going to be a bad thing mid season

Only travel once for the rest of the year too.

The platform is there if we’re good enough.

Can’t afford to be complacent though. Won’t just happen…

Offset by the concrete floor though.

Same thing last year - we set ourselves up and then had an extended period under the roof and we started to drop games we should have won - I think we are better this time around though

Makes the discussion about managing player workload all the more important.

So what will we drop? perhaps swans or dogs?

If we lose to the dogs, that will be embarrassing - they are finished.

Swans will be tough, but we have played well the last two times against them, if down in Melbourne, then we will have them.

I say we don't lose any, lets aim for that!

Swans will be a very tough game - most likely have Jack and Mumford back. Don't expect Judd and Murphy to be able to do what they like in the middle. We need to get Henderson back in this week and give him a run so that the week after Grundy/Richards/LRT are made accountable. But with Jack in the team there midfield is tough to break free from.

Unfortunately this is a luxury we can't afford.....yet.
Despite the media reports we are far from guaranteed a top 4 spot at the moment and can't take any matches for granted.
If things go our way maybe later in the season we can look at resting players.

I agree. Also the small ground suits the Swans more than us. If were playing them at the MCG, we'd have fare more advantage.

After the drenching I copped in Adelaide last Sunday, a roof for the next three weeks is very welcomed... :thumbsup:
