I doubt Brown will play, so Ellis will be in.

[bornadog]

Just as we thought.

[bornadog]

Emergencies are all talls.


AFL named Brain Lake at CHB ---------- Mantis will be happy.

(PS I edited the above team)

Emergencies are all talls

I don't recall seeing that before.

And the bench is all smalls.

Actually DR, I think we have the best team available in. I can't see any other players that could have made it. Those talls have not really being playing that well.

Our best team is missing West, Williams and Addison, however, they have given Harbrow, Hill and Higgins an opportunity. (Higgins is normally part of our best 22, but he has been injured so not really in the best this season, but there is no other choice)

BAD I agree re how well those talls have been playing - I just hope it doesn't mean a last minute switch for an injured Hudson.

I like it - feeling confident. Fire up Doggies! Run them off their feet. Anyone hear if Hudson is a certainty?

That could be a real bonus for us. They have us covered for height but if we can control the ball and use our pace then we have a great chance to win this one.

My tickets have just arrived, I am leaving work early tomorrow and I can't wait to get there.

[GVGjr]

It's like that, isn't it?

I've struggled to get excited for the last 6 weeks and at times I have even found it a bit of a chore to get off to the games, except for the Williamstown ones, but everything has changed in the last week.

deja vu to 2006. Let's hope it lasts till this round finishes

[Mantis]

Pretty much how I thought it would be.

Looks like we are chucking all our eggs into the one basket and hoping that our midfield get's on top. I suppose that has been our strength all year, but I would prefer us to have a contingency plan if things go awol. Oh well, let's hope this team can get the job done.

[Throughandthrough]

If hudson is in doubt of injuring whatever he has further by playing, i'd leave him out.


If (by a miracke) we win he gets another week off

If we lose, we have a final chance.

I'd hate to win this but lose Hudson for a month. (Well i wouldn't really, but you know what i mean...)

Run doggies run doggies run run run you'll fool those Hawthorn blokes because they're dumb dumb dumb.

Same for me too.

But now I am so pumped.

The jacket got worn to work today - really getting into it.

I have had a hard 6 weeks, with having to deal with 2 deaths (brother and a dear friend) so I am hoping the boys will give me something to smile about.

I am really sorry to hear about that. I hope the Doggies put a big smile on your face tomorrow night as well.
