With respect to ACFC, why would they want to play the runners up when they can play the back to back champs in their own back yard?

I know you guys are a little bit full of yourselves but even you can see the outweighing factors in that one.

Yeah I suppose just 1 semi-competitive pre-season match will be sufficient.

Oh yeah, cos the other games that we're playing don't count? There's probably not enough preseason games but no need to be disingenuous about it.

A bit of a walk through againsts Wests, WSW with (again) half the outfield starting side missing (Dura, Rossi, Vidosic, Kaludjerovic, Finkler),

+ Sept 2 vs Wellington Select @Kapiti

and that's it?

I think you guys are saying a game against T-Dubs is expected? Nothing else?

8 weeks to go. I guess if the squad still has a lot of injured we can back load a couple of extra games in the last month. 

But with the injuries and (possibly) light pre-season, the first game on a hot day in Aus may be a real fitness test?
