Meh @ the NAB Cup tbh. Will be good to get some games under the belts anyway for Brissy...am I right in saying that if u lose u go into some other comp with the other losers lol?
So even if u lose in Rnd 1 u are still playing games?

Yeah, I saw North vs Essendon at the QEO last year. We lost but I couldn't have cared less.

Looking forward to see how we go. Looking forward to see how the young blokes go. Don't really care about the result but wouldn't mind us being on the winning side.

oh btw I reckon we should have a thread for each match in the proper season.

That is bound to happen like last year. Too much talk on each game for 'Round' threads.

now for those who think i know shitall about afl watch now
West Coast V Essendon - Subiaco Oval - Friday 12th February
This SHOULD be a good game both sides quite evenly matched i give a bit to west coast because of subiaco but then give some away to essendon because even without big forwards you can still win many games i.e Western Bulldogs 2005>2009
but ill pick Essendon by 21

Adelaide V Port Adelaide - AAMI Stadium - Saturday 13th February
Well well the poof derby Razz

interesting match this Port spending more time with psychics than training to play a season but then adelaide you dont know what to expect now defensive,attacking but nether the less adelaide to be too strong

Hawthorn V Richmond - Aurora Stadium - Saturday 13th February
This one could be a belter depending wether hawthorn have 1st or 2nd string linups tbh Richmond well i dunno what to expect from them with their new coach so ill pick hawthorn

Western Bulldogs V Brisbane - Manuka Oval - Sunday 14th February
Well if these two sides are at full strength we have a damm belter comming up on sunday Hall V Fevola + Brown gives an advantage to Brisbane and its closer to brisi than melbourne so i will pick Brisbane

Doubtful, Scott has said that he is going to play the best team available in round one of the preseason and Robbie T isn't in the best team.

Although if you mean that we are going to lose to Geelong (we probably will) and play those crappy games in the country for the rest of the preseason, then Robbie will probably get a game.

Herlad sun had a little thing on the tigers in the paper this morning and said Cothcin was unbelieveable in a match v Coburg which is a good sign. Also said Troy Taylor played well and Polak was played up forward

Cotchin needs to finish a regular season without injury before i consider his qualities atm i believe he is a promise

It definitely worked for Liam Anthony.

Hall won't be playing, he played two quarters in the intra-club match today though, having five shots on goal and kicking two. Minson, Akermanis and Johnson won't be playing next week either.

Apparently Rocket is pleased with Jordan Roughead's input, as well as Andrejs Everitt, Tom Williams, also Liam Jones who kicked two goals against Lake today.

I have no idea what that meant.

The preseason games last year showed us what Liam Anthony is capable of.

But then, I don't remember the general opinion about him post-draft and pre-preseason ...

Looking forward to seeing how Davis and Walker go. Apparantly Walker's put on a bit of weight over the pre-season (which he needed to do) so it'll be interesting to see how he goes.

I honestly dont care about the result, I just hope we dont come out of this game (and the rest of the NAB Cup games) with any serious injuries.

Mate it's the Crows, we always manage to get a fucken injury in a game. It already started before any games started with Otten's season ending knee injury.

How does him finishing a season without an injury impact on judging he's talent?
