No point playing their reserves and winning by 20 points.  May as well get an indication of where we are at early on.

Didn't we thrash Geelong in the pre season two years ago ? The same year we went 0-9.

Yeah but gee, we had our best in and their players consisted of the lady that runs the pie stand, the boot studder and Mr Burns from the Simpsons.....not much to go on back then.

This time around they are playing full strength or there abouts.

Geelong are still alive in the NAB Cup and will want to win well as well as hoping one or more of West Coast, Adelaide or Hawthorn slip up.
They have been a real bogey team in the last 25 years and seem to have their way against us.
What we need is to play a side where we can give our A graders a run for a half against a side who are the reigning premiers and whose make up of young players will start filling the breaches left behind from the retiring premiership stars.
I would like to see a few things
a) Match time to our guns
b) Under the circumstances that may prevail in the second half with stars being possibly rested: a competitive and excellent first half result.
c) No injuries.

I believe scarlett, podsiadly and johnson are returning..
I'm guessing they want to use us as an example  ::)

I say we use it to see how we hold up against this side. At least for the first half, we don't wanna give away too much.
I know Carlton keep saying they are focusing on rd 1, and unless we are ready I think we will get trounced.

Mentally, this side has the wood on us, regardless of their ladder position.
Playing well at skilled will mean a lot to the confidence of the players and will make the first timers more familiar with the ground come rd 4 should they play.

Maybe jacko can have a brainfade and wipe out their leadership group
