Hope so. We will know the result about half way through the first quarter.

Hope the Swans win today to dent the Pies self belief a bit. A flogging might be best actually.

It's going to be funny hearing the crowd roar if they put the result up on the scoreboard. It'll either be us or the pies fans cheering

I wouldn't play Cerra. I don't think he comes back from injury very well, and it's not like he's in really outstanding form. If fit... maybe he's the sub.
I'd play Williams in the twos, with the hope that we win and he can go into Finals with a game under his belt. He's missed too much football to come straight back in.
The only true selection dilemma is in the ruck.

Also - I think the Hawks are a big chance to win next week. They play well in Tassie and they're saying farewell to McEvoy. They get up for games like this.

Didn't mind Pitto's game at all. Ran out of puff in the last (which has been an issue admittedly), but on the whole - Gawn and Jackson had very little impact on the contest, felt as though he nullified them well enough.

Cerra/Kennedy the only possible inclusions, and I'd only consider one of them if absolutely 100% fit. Setterfield gets another crack at it for mine. Just. Cerra for Newnes seems the way forward.

The BIG question is how much of a toll does last nights loss have our players psych. What proportion of players will be flattened and defeated and worried about making mistakes and what proportion will be lifted and energized and play with devil may care abandon to seek redemption.

We are good enough to beat Collingwood but momentum and self belief and confidence are EVERYTHING.

I am worried.

This is Vossy biggest ever test to get them up

I had a dream ......

Next week we beat the Pies by 1 point with an after the siren goal.

The frenzied ladder fall out means we get to play Pies again in first week of finals.

We win by 82, de Goey stretchered off.

The players should and will move on quickly, I’ve already done so and am already picturing the scenes next week. Get a grip everyone, we didn’t blow a grand final, we don’t have to start all over again and in 6 months time, it’s simply a case of winning next week, and if we’re lucky the hawks will do us a favour anyway.

I believe.

I love your optimism!
Go Blues!

It hurts sooo much but I'm simply laying out the facts.

Look at it this way - be glad what happened happened last night, and not next week!
