Well I would like to be confident but that team of Geelongs just looks far to strong to me. It would take a big step up by many of our guys to even challange them. All I am realy hoping for this season is that our 2nd, 3rd and 4th years guys take that next step and we can see some light at the end of the tunnel.

So what's Edwards done wrong, or is he our secret weapon for round 1.  ??? From MT's reports I was under the impression he was travelling ok and Petts seemed to mention him as part of the forward structure. Surprised he isn't even named in the squad even if he doesn't play. Especially when Collins is in.

He still has that quad problem yes MT?

So they must be keeping him in cotton wool and training only to avoid any knocks to it.

As mentioned in the training thread Edwards still had that quad injury last week but he looked to be moving fine yesterday. My only guess is they are bringing him back via Coburg first.

Good to see Cogs back  :thumbsup.

Hard to disagree with that tigersalive. Rainesy could miss out based on form or lack of it. McMahon or Polak could be late withdrawals going by them in rehab yesterday but Petts and Kingy also had niggles last week yet still played against the Swans. 

That Geelong side looks menacing  :-\.

Just looked at Fluffs website for the arts place he runs, when the AFL and our club need to find the trophy to give us this year they should go to fluff. he stocks souvenir spoons. ;D

8 this year. So two to miss from the named squad of 28. Reckon Polak is doubtful this week.

Given it's the last practice match clubs could go with less on the bench to simulate round 1 as closely as possible.

Polak is out of today's game
« Reply #44 on: March 07, 2008, 03:58:09 AM »
Polak will miss today's game.

For Geelong, Ottens, Selwood and Stokes won't play either. Apart from that the Cats are virtually at full strength.

Quote
from today's Herald-Sun

Big men Graham Polak (bruised heel) and Jay Schulz (cracked rib) will miss for the Tigers.

Ruckman Troy Simmonds will play after recovering from quad tightness.

King was hopeful coach Terry Wallace would have a full team to pick for the Tigers' March 20 season-opener against Carlton.

"You always say you're fit and healthy and ready to go," King said.

"If I can say the same thing on Saturday I'll be absolutely rapt because the last hitout is always a concern."

Link.

Ruckman Brad Ottens and NAB Rising Star Joel Selwood are late withdrawals with minor niggles.
