Or go all out and take on the biggest challenge we have ever seen while others take a couple of months to get organised.
It's there for the taking not the tanking and we should go hard for it.
I get the sentiment but stuff it

Have to play Trengove in my opinion to cover both Brown and Goldy
God knows. Hope the mids practice sharking opposition taps when we go back to training.
I wouldn't hold my breath on Trengove.

Yeah, nah. Once the game is on I don't ever want to lose, ever. I can't not care.

Neither will I but I'd be picking him

Re: Footy isn't far away
You can forget about us now getting the commercially attractive draw (with plenty of Friday and Saturday night matches) we were given for this season given the debacle from our coaches and players in Round 1.

The thing is the fixture is going to be a moving object, they won't be scheduling the whole season from the start. We will have the opportunity to erase that debacle if we are good enough and earn some attractive time slots. Not that we should be condemned to Sunday twilight for one bad game anyway.

Yeah but it's still footy. Watered down footy is still footy and footy rocks.
Footy.

Sunday Twilight is good for viewing but not attending.
Bring on the footy, I want us to have a killer instinct and leave no stone upturned and win win win.

Probably not great for our sponsors though. Friday and Saturday night channel 7 games are the best result commercially I would imagine.
At the moment any time is a good time for TV viewing!

Re: Footy isn't far away
The letter and video released today got me pumping. I'm not 100% on the value of a flag this year, but I've run out of things to talk about with my mates, so footy is welcome back.

History is written by the winners. Only ones left saying it's an *premiership are the ones who didn't win it.

If you go back in history and see how some premierships were awarded, you would in today's terms strip the cup off them.
I will take it if we are good enough

Like the 'right of challenge' if you finish top but got knocked out of the finals back in the VFL?
The curse is dead.
