ALL-AUSTRALIAN PREDICTIONS thread

On the Couch were talking about a dozen Cats players making the final 45, you need to work more of us in there is all I'm saying.

I dont know who i would take out but i would somehow fit sandilands in there he dominated the hitouts against dean cox.... not so much the posessions

[Sam#4]

Jimmy Bartelon the wing???

[EagleRock]

Thats all Sandilands can do, hit the ball and he should be beating everyone in hitouts when hes 211cms tall. Cox is second on the list for hitouts and he runs around like a high quality ruckman as well.

[Tippaz]

i'm taking Heath Shaw out of contention !!!

Take out Jolly for Enright!

issues, mate there are plenty of forwards from other teams that have your cats covered, the forward line for all australian doesnt need the assistance of a single cat player, perhaps we should use the geelong defence seeing as thats where they better essendon of season 2000.

Ewww ... you type strangely. Moving onto more nothing ...

What about the midfield? We have easily got the best midfield and thats where I'm saying there are more cats needed. The team we should be compared to is the 2002-2004 Brisbane Lions, not the 2000 Essendon.

I reckon the current Geelong team would have both those sides covered. Brisbane didn't dominate any of those 3 seasons like the Cats have dominated the last 2, and only topped the ladder in 2002.

sorry if i type strangely, cant imagine why you would think so, anyway only reason i mentioned essendon of 2000 is basically on friday night against the dees the commentators in the box spoke of how both teams are similar in terms of win loss ratios and how although your forwards arent as dominant as the dons of 2000, your defence has them covered.
by the way it aint brisbane of 2002 - 2004, rather brisbane of 2001 - 2003, after all they won three in succession in that period.
as for reaching their feats, another brownlow, norm smith, 2 premierships and a 4th grand final appearance is needed to compare notes. otherwise its pure foolishness for the moment.
