    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.
    Sympathies to you and your family.

    Come on dogs cheer up Max 469

      Lets hope he is ok.

      Played a great game for Adelaide in last years finals against the Hawks and has been one of the real differences for us this year.

            How lucky is Higgins to be playing finals. With both West and Williams out, I doubt he would have been included. We need him to fire up tomorrow and show us the skill we know he has.

              Extremely lucky. If it was my choice he wouldn't be playing, he hasn't been able to adapt to the pace of the game over the past 2 weeks and with the speed likely to increase again tomorrow I'm not sure how he will go.

              But in saying this he will probably play a blinder, we can only hope.

                Trained the house down on Tuesday, looked sharp and skillfull, so hope he brings that into the game.

                  Probably the best team we can put on the park IMO

                  I just watched Rohan Connolly's preview and he's on the Dogs to upset Hawthorn

                    Higgins has looked that way on the track from day one...it's how he adapts his obvious talents to the pace of a game, and a final no less, that'll demonstrate his worth to us.

                    Enough with the stop Buddy obsession, we'll beat these pricks by taking it up to them and forcing them to react to us, not the other way 'round...and the only way we can pull that off is if our mids play their brains out.

                      But how will he be judged if he doesn't cut the mustard tonight or the upcoming finals?

                      The easy option would be blame his lack of game time due to his injuries (which no doubt has played a part) or do we need to look at his worth more closely?

                        Pretty straight forward...simply judge the bloke according to his deeds, as with anyone else in the squad.

                        Higgins has match-winning abilities, he's part of a strong finals outfit, and once picked is rightfully expected to contribute.

                          We need Welsh to kick 4-5 goals tonight, this is his time to step up.

                            Whats the odds on a late change? I suspect there will be one and I'm not sure if it will be Hudson.

                            I'm really looking forward to tonight

                              I hope your not insinuating that one of our players will be out tonight!

                                I'm also really looking forward to tonight, but I'm also ****ing nervous as all hell.

                                Of course there'll be a late change, it's Rocket coaching, he's mad for a late change.
