Yeh I think MM has got selection right based on form.
Good to see he is including young players in Cook and Sharrod (emergency) although rumoured to play.
Generally the youngsters aren't overwhelmed by big occassions as we have seen in recent years.
Hope BJ is a late omission for Sharrod.

Another interesting factoid; all three emergencies have changed for this week. Last week it was Anthony/Toovey/Stanley. I wonder if that represents a change in perceived form, matchups, the horses-for-courses policy, injuries, or none of the above?

its a very young team but im happy with that

Toovey and Stanley are both injured, Toovey (shoulder) and Stanley (ankle).
Hopefully Cook can show us a bit, I'd have both Iles and Stanley in front of him but hopefully he proves me wrong.

Yeah, it would have been interesting had Collingwood VFL been fixtured for a game this weekend, Sharrod and Cookie playing AFL, and Tooves and Stanners injured. McCarthy would have to step up :)
Not an issue though as they don't play again until May 3rd now.

Just wondering TRS, do you have inside information suggesting Sharrod Wellingham is playing ANZAC Day??
I was sure he was named in the emergencies.

Check the Sharr-iff of Wellingham thread, I'd be surprised if he didn't play ANZAC Day, yes.

Maybe MM really does take note of BF posts. What's your prediction for the final score?
For the first time this season, im very happy with the team named. It would be good to line up as named, but i wouln't mind either cox or wellingham in for cook.
Looks Great.
Carn the pies.

I thought Brodie was in, on the e-mail i got from collingwood...?
nick_savo
23 Apr 2008, 22:23
the e-mail has Holland in the centre and no Swan
Let's not jinx ourselves this week. How about a "touch wood" after each prediction?

agreed.
we need every little thing on our side this week.
with the 3 games we have after this week...this game could be make or break.
although i do think we are a real chance to beat hawthorn, st.kilda and geelong.
We will win by 100 points touch wood.
the e-mail has Holland in the centre and no Swan
Nah no Holland, and Swan was centre in my email.

Ok im really starting to get scared now about all this with swan being injured is he not playing? is he Playing? (please let him be ok) i just want him out there....
although his kicking was bad last week i thought he played very well around the packs...
i just want a full strength side!....:(

I cannot understand why after last weeks game people want Ben Johnson out of the side. He clearly played his best game of the year and is starting to find some form. He is one of our best runners and adds some much needed grunt. I slowed down a bit in the second half but I the first half I had him in our top 3 players on the ground. He ended up with 24 possies. Hardly reason to want him out of the side I would think

Just wanted to say best of luck. I am going to this game- flying over tonight. Should be a cracker. May the best team win. I do think you will beat us but it probably will be closer than I think. I think I may get on Thomas for the Anzac Medal though, dead set gun you have got there, and I really don't care what others say but I'd take him over Murphy and co as the one thing you cannot buy when drafting is the ability to change matches- Thomas can.
Best of luck, hope to catch a few of you at the ground.
Regards, bomberno1.

I also thought he was great around the packs as i said on another thread i was sitting with a former essendon player who commented on his ability to get the handball away - he only had 8 kicks and had 85 % efficiency for game thought his kicking was okay most hit the target whereas he gave handballs one to pendles and the other to didak who both got clangers straight to opposition. He seemed to me that swan seemed to want to handball more than kick last week - who knows perhaps the leg was sore after all he had padding on at training. Perhaps confidence is down. Would like to see him make Vic team so hopefully his okay let's see how he goes tomorrow.

Another game that will go down to the last few minutes is something I can't take at the moment sadly. I've been close to a heart attack lately.
I just want a good old fashioned blow out. Richmond was close, but we let them back in it. I was pure and utter domination, like the 100+ point win we inflicted on Geelong a few years ago.
I can wish...

Yeh, I remember you were planning to head over for a while. You got to experience a high and a low I guess.
How's Marty enjoying his footy? Has he mentioned any word?

24 Apr 2008, 23:28
he's just living the dream' he was'nt happy with himself after rd1 but he got his head down and worked hard to get himself back in' he's coming well and should be back to his best very soon... trip was great got to round 1' and 2 games then the port melbourne reserve game aswell' met a few player's aswell which was very good and which made it better they were really great lad's aswell ' we also got to train with the vfl side at the paddock which was an experince in itself great lads all of them
