Malceski and Everitt in sure does expose our soft underbelly.

Did anyone watch Richardson's piece on Jobe Watson on the AFL site? Didn't say much unfortunately but he is a danger player for the bombers - who do you think will get the job on him? Kennedy and O'Keefe are both 188cm, so only giving away a couple of centimetres and both are strong contested marks. You would think ROK at least would have the endurance to run with him the whole day.

As long as Jude has a great game we will win.
Rnd 20 2011 Loss 13 disposals 3 tackles
Rnd 2 2011 win 25 disposals 9 tackles
Rnd 11 2010 win 36 disposals 12 tackles!

As usual, it will be won or lost in the middle. Our mids have proved plenty of times this year they can beat up on average midfields. They need to start showing they can match it with the top midfields. I have a feeling we will be on our game tomorrow, if the bombers are off theirs we should win. If they are on, they might be just too good but it will go down to the line.

I hope they just play JPK and Jobe head-to-head. Fun to watch.
Joey has improved massively.

I am predicting a break out game from Sam Reid tonight! 5 to 6 goals.

I like it

Reid's form has been slowly improving, he's due for a big game I agree. 6 goals? Why not ? Go Reidy !!

That would be nice. Master and apprentice-type scenario. Their game play and body shape is remarkable similar.

On another note i think Horse has been very intelligent in resting Joey up forward. He's got body presence and developed his marking ability enough to be a threat. We are so crippled without Rohan/Goodes in the forward line that Joey with his height and size can almost play an old school full forward role. GAJ does the same.
