Alright, cause the majority of games were played out off stage, Im gunna write a quick review of the one that was played, then dot the rest of this weekends talking points out in point form. And man, was there some doozies!

A BIG game this weekend, with the top story for the game being BBBBBBH and his 7 goal haul. Gotta be on the radar now!
Goddard and Riewoldt have thrown out the gauntlet to everyone who has made the decision not to play them with a 99 and 113 respectively.
Higgins scored himself 105 points with only 5 kicks (and 9 handballs). Guarentee me 20 games and hell be a lock!
The biggest downer for the night was surely Fisher, ruling himself out for the first 4 rounds.

And the bullet points.
- Sam Fisher - Out for 4 -6 weeks with an ankle.
- Dean Cox - Didnt train. Rumour mill is running wild. Naitanui and maybe even Will Sullivan, come on dooooown.
- David Hille - Has come back very strong in his pre season games. Hille/Naitanui anyone? Could you be that daring even with Tippett covering?
- Robbie Gray - Looks to have done something to his hammy. No reports have come out to confirm it though, which seems strange. Must keep an eye on this one.
- Wonnaeamirri - Came back from injury, only to be re-injured. Avoid.
- Barry Hall kicked 7 in the NAB Grand final. Surely though if it takes kicking 7 to crack the ton, youve got to have question marks? Still looks to be fantastic value though.
- Heath Scotland injured a shoulder - "should be right for round 1"
- Apparently "Best and fairest winner Bernie Vince, veterans Andrew McLeod and Tyson Edwards, midfielders Scott Thompson and Nathan van Berlo, ruckmen Ivan Maric and James Sellar and forwards Brett Burton and Chris Knights all missed the clash with the Blues but are a chance to play against Fremantle." - So anyone with an eye on Adelaides fringe, watch out.
- Max Rooke, tendinitis. Should secure Hunt even more so in the line up.
- Sylvia, 8 weeks with a broken jaw - Scully and Trengove have got to be locks now. But with the shear volume of injuries down in Demonland, surely theres got to be value outside of those two!
- Cousins in hospital, with Caro reporting a little of the *makes drinkie drinkie motion* - Gotta wonder what the implication to the Tigers midfield will be if he misses a couple of early round.
- Malceski pulled out before the match with a sore hammy.
- Hahn fractured an eye socket. 4 weeks. "Might play round 1". Gotta love the differences in reports.
- Eagleton - subbed off with hammy injuries. Could be back for round 1.
- Jarryd Roughhead left the ground with a knee injury. Should be right for round 1.
