Game Day Round 23: Collingwood v Hawthorn, MCG, 7.50pm

[Dixie Flatline]

what do we need to win by to get best percentage???

Need to win by about 130 points or have Richmond win by 38 points at the moment.

 

[SA HAWK]

Smith has been awful tonight.

 

[Flamin Joe]

Seriously don't understand why the Pies are booing Ceglar. They delisted them. Wut.

Got to use that braincell for something.

 

[Dewnior]

And that's why the Crows didn't want White

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Jessie White's kick on goal:

 

[Xtreme]

Spanger does holy miracles which made white miss

 

[westaussie76]

I'll say it again, Shoenmakers is a waste of space!

 

[Hodge is God]

Schoenmakers just got outmuscled by Langdon ffs.

 

[Bikefreak]

Not in my view. Too top heavy and not enough pace.

Back to the draft we go.

 

[Gralin]

Brad deserves to get to 200 games, still think against freo and geelong he is worth having in the middle, one more premiership for the great man

 

[MinerBoy]

I'd like 6 or 7 goals more in the remaining time. Who else can play like we have and give 100 a nudge?

 

[Gralin]

Put the cue in the rack can see players thinking about getting hurt now

Hale has been very clean tonight, Doc better than Lithers for mine

Still prefer Spang to Shoe at this stage, probably being harsh on Shoe but he's had a massive effort to come back as well as he has from his knee for a big fella all the same

Would not be surprised if BB is back next week reckon its Cegs or BB, Hale stays either way

Love Punky in the middle just has a spark

 

[Nomore4s]

Hale is a lock for the rest of the year.

Litherland been sloppy tonight, needs to tighten up his disposal.

 

[MinerBoy]

Hales had a s**t year Dennis ya goose. Has had a few good weeks at the right time though.

 

[Kuuz]

One thing though is Shoey is just too slow. He has such poor agility and turning speed/burst that he just gets done so easily on the lead up.

If you're slow you need excellent awareness of the game and positioning, like Lake and Fletcher. Shoey doesn't even have that in the slightest. Just being outplayed in 1v1s.

Was he like this before his knee injuries?

 

[Hodge is God]

s**t Schoenmakers.

 

[westaussie76]

Shoenmakers is a liability

 

[Kuuz]

THERE. Again. Shoey gets pushed under the ball by Jesse "Kick-Sideways" White. Jesus. Seen this 3 effing times tonight.

Just still lacks real understanding of positioning down back, and has no pace to correct his mistakes.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Kicking himself out of a spot in next week's team, Litherland.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Was he like this before his knee injuries?

No.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Nice win kimbopen

 

[Kuuz]

Was he like this before his knee injuries?

I don't remember his pace being an issue. His main fault back then was his positioning. But arguably he was in the best form of his career when he did his ACL.

One can only wonder....

 

[MinerBoy]

Duryea has won the battle v Litherland tonight.

Unfortunately Spangher v Schoenmakers is -5 all.

Doesn't read the flight very well either which adds to him being out of position so much.
