Good luck Blueboys.

Let’s do it again.

I'd like to be proven wrong but I dont think we can beat top four type teams without key players building cohesion over time.

Thats what top four type teams do really well, they can flick the switch whenever they want. Maybe next year.

Zac Williams in for Williamson.
I'd also like to see Fisher come in the side.
Wouldn't be surprised is Cripps misses with an ankle injury.
Do we have to play Casboult?

cant see us winning this one
geelong are playing really well, and the umps always seem to favour them
their forward structure, if cameron plays, will be too much for us
more than happy to be proved wrong though

Be nice to have Charlie available then we could all those ex Geelong boys give it to them.

I hope Harry bag's 6 on Hendo and Eddie towels up Touhy

Dangerfield has a habit of taking out our young guns .

We have 22 players playing for each other and with the afl fitness

And you want to bring in fisher who has played 3 or 4 games this season ??!!

Fyfe is absolute superstar and he has been out for a while and he struggled with the pace of the game

Fisher comes back thru the reserves , if the club is genuinely trying to set new standards

Good that we had a win on the MCG.
That's 2 wins from our last 2 outings at the MCG.
2 more games at the G. Should feel like a home ground.

Williams for Williamson is the only obvious change.

Lets see what Honey and Ramsay produce in the VFL today.

If Fisher jumping out of his skin, then he could take Fogarty's spot, or it might be Honey.

Have to keep the hapless Levi in.

We are yet to claim a scalp.

We can beat the Cats, and claim our first.

This is our Grand Final

Injured best 22: Pittonet, Curnow, Marchbank, Docherty, Cuningham, McGovern.
Injured peripheral players: Setterfield, Murphy, Gibbons, Philp, McDonald,

Bring our best, kick straight, improve on last 2 games, and a win is a possibility.

If Cripps is unavailable, does Williams play in the midfield? I know he has looked better for us when playing HB, but out of necessity he might need to go into the guts until Cripps is fit. It would be a big chance for Williams to win over Carlton people.

Cats are gettable..............Martin and Petset up the ante" and we can beat 'em..............just need a few more to chime in and we can do it..............all of a sudden we have become a far more even side.We are spreading the load.Many hands make light work..........bring that evenness all over the ground and we will cause a boilover.And i rate the Cats.

If we go -19 in the clearances this game won't be close...

We one a winning streak against Geelong of 1 in a row....lol.

This game is suddenly very important given we are 6pts out of the 8. Given it's against Stanley i'd actually start with Levi as first ruck. He goes alot better when he gets a free run around the ground and gets his hands on the ball. Levi's days a forward are gone so TDK might give us more value there while playing 2nd ruck.

I may be wrong but was the Setanta & his helpers game in 2010 the last time we played them at the G?

Williams in for Williamson, Honey for Cripps if he doesn’t recover.

I’d like to see Honey replace Martin so Martin can regain fitness and form in the vfl, but won’t happen.
