2008 NAB Cup

Richo not playing?
I got the feeling that the club was loking forward to having Richo and Browny back together with Lids deep.

No Thursty or McGuane must mean Silvester is guaranteed to play at FB with Sarge at CHB. My guess for the first NAB Cup game:

B.    King       Silvester    Bowden   
HB: Morton     Schulz     McMahon
C:   Johnson   Newman    Jackson             
HF:  Richo        Polak        Pettifer
F:    Brown      Deledio     Collard
R:  Simmonds   Foley      Tambling

Int (eight from): Cartledge, Riewoldt, Raines, Rance, Collins, Polo, Tuck, Patto, Hyde, Edwards, White, Casserly, JON, Tivs, Hughes

If the Foley groin injury rumour has any truth then he'll of course miss. Cogs won't play yet.

Well I have a bit of a different take on the side now. As we have no Thursfield and Mcquane and we are playing the saints with a few big fowards I think that Polak will have to play down back.

B.    King        Bowden   Polak
HB: Newman    Schulz     McMahon
C:   Johnson    Tuck     Jackson             
HF:  Morton      Richo      Pettifer
F:    Brown      Deledio     Tambling
R:  Simmonds    Foley       Polo

My bench of 8    Riewoldt, Patterson, Edwards, Collard, Raines, JON, Tiv, Silvester

This was much harder than I thought. The next level of players down from the top bunch seems to be very even and there are a handfull of others that could be in the mix.

True fluffy we might need to use Polak down back if the Saints rest either Gardiner or King up forward to stretch us for height. I think Silvester will take Gehrig and Schulz gets Riewoldt. I hope Terry doesn't force Rainesy onto to Riewoldt again  .

Who says Richo's not playing Nugget?

So who from OER is going Friday Night?

Plan to.

[Hellenic Tiger]

I work at Collins St Docklands so I will be having some pre game drinks at the bar downstairs and then trundling off to the Dome. May end up being our only Friday night game all year so hopefully the Tiggers win and if not then I can make it count with a heavy drinking session.

In Queensland our NAB Cup game will be screened live on Austar at 18.30 on Channel 518, the Main Event channel.
