double edge sword imo, if it rains our talls and probably our biggest strength, Fev, Kouta, Lance, Waite, Fish and Kennedy might struggle but at the same time it gives us imo a better chance at winning if it rains

Forecast for Sunday
Rain developing during the morning as the northerly wind strengthens ahead of a
squally southwesterly change with showers. Possible hail and thunderstorms
later.

8) 8) 8)

He should be used sparingly. Has not had the ideal preparation and the forecast conditions will mean that the game will be physically taxing. Playing in those conditions for the Bullants compared to what will confront him on Sunday is like comparing chalk and cheese.

Kouta, Waite and Fisher and good athletes and are good below their knees too. Kouta hasn't been king of the clearances previously for nothing. Having said that I did tip Collingwood though. I love my Blues but I'm not stupid either. Only time I tipped them this year was against the Swans. Have enough trouble tipping winners let alone letting my heart rule my head.

BOO !!

screw the tipping - call me stupid but i will tip the blues every week , i dont care who we are playing - i cant sit there and semi barrack for the opposition in the hope that i might win a rubbish tipping comp.

I may be deluded but i go into every game thinking we are chance.

Lol....that's fair enough. Not for me though to give away cheap points! If I wanted to do that I wouldn't enter it in the first place.

A friend just called me out of the Blue and said he had a dream last night that the Blues beat the Pies but 10 goals tomorrow.

I said, "10 goals? are you sure? they've forcast rain tomorrow"

He said, "10 goals. It was a very vivid dream"

Now my mate is a Cats fan with absolutely no reason to be dreaming about the Blue Baggers pantsing the Pies in the autumn rain at the G, so screw logic, I'm getting on the Blues by 40+.

The oracle has spoken and I'm not one to ignore an omen from the footy gods.

Happy with the weather forecast - think it will help us the most. To top it off I will be watching in comfort, warm, dry, well-fed and "oiled" from a corporate box... 8)

I wouldn't say that.

IMO, it won't suit Collingwood's talls a may work better for our defence.

Waite, Fisher, Fev and Kennedy are all really good below there knees and during pre-seaon trained really well in the wet.
