Match Committee - Round 19 2016 vs Geelong

[F'scary]

I haven't missed a game this year (in Melbourne, I rarely do), but I won't be venturing to Geelong on a miserable cold night, with hardly any tickets available for away teams. I will be watching though, but need to control myself as my wife hates me yelling and screaming at the TV.

I was talking to a Doggies supporter who ventured down the highway last year. All they had left to sell were $100+ tickets. So he bought one. He said the seat was shithouse.

Geelong games are a massive rip off. Will never go again after paying a small fortune last year to barely be able to see a thing at the far end of the ground. The result wasn't flash either

Agreed - I'll be going though. I secured two tickets in the past players pavilion. They cost a small fortune but the view isn't bad (grandstand side forward pocket slightly elevated).

have you heard anything on Moz?

sure it was in todays Herald Dum that Moz won't be playing but can't find the link

I love the standing room, but it was going to be a mission to get there early enough for a Friday night match. I ended up buying tickets via the Club. We're in the pocket a few rows back from the fence.

I think we'll see a minimum of four changes for this week, sneaky five changes if McLean is fit. Interesting to see what the selectors do.

I hope we win so your family doesn't stir you too much.

There's no one I enjoy beating more, trouble is those victories have been few and far between for a long, long time.

I hear you loud and clear.

Geelong are my most hated team, particularly as I grew up in the area.

[Eastdog]

I will start the game day thread tonight after the teams are announced.

[LostDoggy]

I'll have a go...

Ins: Hamling, Cordy, Dahl, Stringer

Outs: Morris, Wallis, Redpath, M.Boyd (managed)

With Hamling and Cordy both pulling out of the VFL I think they are certain ins. Can't see Morris being risked at this stage. Boyd being managed is just a gut feel, I think he is carrying something.

Hamling will play forward, Cordy will replace Morris.

I just wonder how heavily the MC are considering Minson coming in allowing Boyd to play constantly forward.

[bornadog]

Team has gone to Geelong tonight and will stay there.

Not the worst idea.. Been a shit week so the chance to do some bonding has merit.

[Happy Days]

Jesus. Hasn't the week been traumatic enough?

I would be happy to see Minson in to assist Roughead with the ruck duties allowing Tom Boyd to become more of a focal point up forward. With Wallis out for the season, it might be time to move Matthew Boyd back into the midfield to give us more experience in the midfield where Geelong has plenty of depth.

Punishment for their performance on the weekend
