TOPIC:

With so many of our first choice players missing I think we'll struggle this week. Hopefully we'll get Jordan Lockyer and Craig Hoskins back but with the likes of Wheeler, Cockie, Hancock, Adamson, Phelan and so on still on the injury list it's going to be a tough ask against my premiership favourites.

pity the Park Hotel isn't still going mate, could of had a coldie with you there before the game..

hahaha...that would have been a hoot. Col Bizzacca was licensee when I was playing footy for CBC across the road at Fremantle Park.

Big outs R1: Cockie, Phelan, Hancock, Adamson, Wheeler,

Round 2 ins depends if any injured R1: Lockyer, Matera, Hoskins.

Big ask.

Lockyer and Chris Phelan are two big ins for Subi....I expect Lockyer to take his place after a couple of games in the magoos but wouldn't be surprised if Phez either plays some limited time in the ressies this week or misses again. You wouldn't risk him for game 2 of the year when there's another 16 after this.

Fair go BC, lovely bit of modesty, but you know that Subi will roll SF. Nice touch though.

No mate...I honestly believe Souths are premiership favourites this year....the only real change to last years squad is they've lost Kelly but picked up Suban...so no real downside for mine. Subi on the other hand have had a huge turnover during the offseason and yes, we've got some good in's such as Zac Clarke, Rohde, Newton, Deluca and so on but it'll take time for these guys to gel whereas Souths have had a settled squad for a few years...so if Souths don't get the chocolates this year then I think they'll be very disappointed and so they should be.

Turn it up BC, you will win by 9 goals.
