If North can beat Geelong I'm not sure we want to play them either

[Hellenic Tiger]

North would be a good test. A team that will play alot of youngsters and finished with a similar amount of wins last year as we did. Will be good to see Martin line up against Ziebel and how our mids stack up against theirs. Plus two coaches who will be coaching in just their second games whose young sides might be coming of bad first up losses.

Geelong although have promised to play kids will still have quite a few premiership players taking the field and it could really kill any confidence that wasn't eroded by last nights lopsided result.

From today's Australian...

Taylor, a fourth-round selection, and 51 overall in November's national draft, could play his first game for Richmond against either Geelong or North Melbourne tomorrow week. Also likely to have their first serious hit-outs in that trial game are Ben Cousins, Daniel Jackson, Luke McGuane and ruckman Troy Simmonds.

Hawthorn one week Geelong the next 

Just our luck if North upset Geelong  although the Pussies have woken up and kicked the last 5 goals. North were in front by 46 points at one stage in the 3rd quarter but it's now back to just 13.

i was just about to say that MT!! 8 points down now with quarter to go... you would think that the cats would run over the top of them now.

North hung on then kicked a couple to win by 14 points.

So we're playing Geelong in Yea next weekend.

[mightytiges]

Oh goody

Round 1 will seem like a piece of cake and a relief after all these practice matches against the gun sides 

[bojangles17]

 something tells me that the cats will be resting the likes of ablett, Ling and Bartel seeing they all played today...will be keen how strong we are and if we are competitive, we should be

Picked up tickets last week

[crannyvegas]

Yeah im going for a giggle. Got some tickets yesterday actually.

Oh and by the way  WP thanks for your directions on finding them at Etihad. Made it really easy, when it could have been an annoying process. Thankfully i remembered the ATM on the way in.

Going with the girlfriends family who are all Geelong supporters... Not sure why i put myself through these situations actually.
