tho’ you’d prob argue the Biggest difference of all is Kennedy + Darling in for them…
Thanks MBS
I’ll catch the game on my work iPad even I’m not gonna be back at work for at least three months
Yeah I’ve even asked my fave on duty nurse for a couple extra painkillers

Obvious in like this side
Langford must play at HFF! He is in good goal kicking form.
Tippa better fire this week and I’m not talking just goals but defence and run downs.
Begley lucky to be in, got last chance for mine this week. If he doesn’t fire in comes Baguley.
McKernan one out in the goal square, delivery so important against WCE. Saad and McKenna super important for this.
Clarke wow! He goes straight to Gaff no brainer for mine. Gaff is their setup man.
Merrett, Shiel and Heppell must get in top this is where the game will be decided. They not only need to win the clearances but also stoppages and kick goals
Pretty similar
Ambrose = Dea 15 disposals
Zaharakis = Goddard 26 disposals
Shiel = Smith. 23 disposals 3 goals
Begley = Baguley 13 disposals 1 goal
Clarke > Myers 19 disposals
Laverde < Stringer 11 disposals 3goals
Parish > Green 4 disposals, 4 frees against
Smith, Goddard, Stringer were all good in this game last year. We should be in a slightly better position. But stringer and smith kicked half our score 6/12 goals. I can’t see Laverde/ Shiel doing that.
Plus eagles have some good ins too.
We touched this mob up with our speed in 2017 too. At what point do you officially have the wood on a side (touch wood).

I’m confused. TV guide says there’s “AFL” on channel 7 tomorrow night but everyone here’s talking Kayo/Foxtel. It’s on free to air right?
EDIT: scratch that. Memo to self, don’t rely on this site: https://www.ontvtonight.com/au/guide/listings/MelbourneNight.html

Need to set that TV guide site to your OWN City HH. IIRC, it shows Sydee as default.
For them
OUTS - Nic Nat, Lecras, Lycett, Rioli, Cole, McInnes, Waterman
INS - Kennedy, Darling, Petrucelle, Hickey, Cameron, O.Allen, Sheed.
Not knowing a lot about the other Eagles players, aside from Darling and Kennedy, have they improved greatly?
If Begley plays a similar game to last week I suspect that quite a few opinions on here will change. He was very lucky to kick 2 and save his position for another week.
I’m really hopeful that he can move the ball quicker this week and be stronger in the contest. He looked extremely unsure of himself at times and was far to slow to react when clear options presented them selves.
His opponent gave him an absolute bath in the first term last week and was a big part of the reason the Hawks we’re running it out of our forward half so easily. It felt at times (I think it was Hardwick) was everywhere, with Begs no where to be seen.

Darling and Kennedy are huge ins. Petrucelle they rate pretty highly and is quick as a rabbit and sheed is a gun imo

Yeh Hardwick gave him a massive touch up pretty much the first half, out marked him a few times one on one if I remember correctly, must say though he is a good player, kicked huge bags in the tac cup as forward so he can play a bit.

I’m not sure being a stand and deliver marking target is Begley’s go. When his kicking and finishing is back to its best he’ll do his best work in between the midfield and forward line creating scoring opportunities for others and finishing with ruthless efficiency when time is being put into someone else.
I think he needs to improve his defensive rating and show that he can be a bit more disciplined and accountable when he needs to be.
The late goals with the game still in the balance will be good for his confidence.
At this stage I see him as being a bigger, meaner version of Blake Caracella but he has to re-frank the kicking skills that were on display in his first year.

Kayo 14 day free trial should keep you busy for a few days
Yeah we usually get 7mate down here in the southern highlands which was why I thought it was weird when it wasn’t listed as a channel
Oh well at least Medibank Private covers the $12k for my prosthetic titanium knee
Very happy with the choice of Brown. Not only was he solid early this year, he did so much to hold the forward line together in 2018 after JD went down. Big love for Brown in the bonzo house.
I’ve found a sportsbar in Quy Nhon that is playing the game live, apparently owned and run by a Melbourne guy.
I’m knocking of work and going straight there.
This could get messy.

You know that actually happened? Old mate got served by security after that goal.
