Yes, we are playing against an actual team on Saturday. The result, however, has absolutely no meaning. Sure, momentum is blah blah blah...Ask Hawthorn how much they care about momentum. Clearly not much. They rested a slew of their best including Franklin, Rioli and Hodge. Conversely, we bring back the ultra injury prone Butler and possibly burn out Darling. Cox and Glass remain in the team. Needless to say I'm concerned.
We will need all our best players if we are to compete against bogan brigade next week. Speaking of which, Dale Thomas is out for that game. Now if only Swan, Pendlebury, Didak, Sidebottom and a few others suffer an unfortunate accident we may have a chance. Maybe a few of the Pies will miss with lead poisoning from their tattoos? I hope Swan doesn't lose an arm. It has been confirmed that the QF is on Saturday afternoon at the G. Undoubtedly our biggest game in 4 years.
But back to one of the least biggest games of the last 4 years. Adelaide have been okay since dumping Craig. They have a far better side than their record would suggest. Consequently, I wouldn't be surprised if we lost. As long as we play decently, don't lose anyone to injury, then it will be a positive outing.
