Kind of looking forward to this game.

Hopefully Carlton go easy so Collingwood have no excuses come round one.

Which tough Carlton players do you want to go easy? I'm most worried about Gibbs, he's as tough as nails. He's not alone though, their whole list strikes fear in my heart really.

Murphy is a bloody brute

Judd has been responsible for his fair share of casualties on the footy field.

Not enough force !!!.

Be nice to see the big guns back for the pies (well some of them anyway) and Carlton have a decent side in as well.

Bryce Gibbs sporting the Bruce Jenner hairdo.

 

[Fadge]

A few missing from Pies best 22 - Reid, Sidebottom, Elliott, Adams, White, Frost. Who's missing from Carlton's best team? Reckon they're good value at $2.50, though will likely get pantsed and show everyone how bad they really are.

 

[Silvagnis]

Yarran turns his head and has a look before be burns off Thomas. LOL.

Like Bell as a forward after he kicked a bag against the Suns last year.

Byrne is a big boy like Tuohy and Sheahan. Nice tackle by the Irishman.

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Good to see these teams are still stubbornly refusing to do anything sensible with the away team's guernsey in games against each other. Collingwood would wear its white guernsey without hesitation in an away game against Port or Fremantle. Why not Carlton?

Right...

Andrejs Koutoufides dominating so far.

Because there's enough white there on the Collingwood jumper and away shorts to differentiate. You know, just like there has been for the past century.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Unaccountable footy from Collingwood. Getting carved up.

I do not know that much about your list but this taken from your own board seems legit....

Add witts and Reid, Keeffe and White to this team and this is our best 25 odd players. If we don't have a comfortable win then we should be seriously worried

White and Frost are hardly best 22 surely??



Never change Fadge.

Honestly i don't care that much what the result is but winning is always nice as long it is a good hit out and no injuries ensue.

 

[Silvagnis]

Tutt needs to avoid the fate of ex-Bulldog Alan Thorpe who turned it on in a practice match 20 years ago.

Lively type.

 

[HTPunter]

All 6 of Carltons goals have been kicked by former Western Bulldogs players!

 

[Seedsman_]

Eagerly anticipating Adam H blowing his load over this

 

[davis_756]

collingwood haven't turned up thus far, not providing much of a warm up

 

[Fadge]

White and Frost are hardly best 22 surely??

Never change Fadge. .

Given they played 40 games between them last year, that's a good indication they're best 22.

 

[snooplions]

Enjoying this game. Carlton are playing a really quick and exciting brand of footy.

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Because there's enough white there on the Collingwood jumper and away shorts to differentiate. You know, just like there has been for the past century.

Lol...Collingwood actually wore what is now known as its 'clash' guernsey for most of that past century. You must realise that, surely?

And why does it wear that clash guernsey every time it plays against interstate teams with very similar guernseys to Carlton (e.g. Port Adelaide and Fremantle)?

 

[Chism]

Your list is in worse shape than you think then.
