Round 8: Gold Coast vs Collingwood @ Metricon Stadium

[bradrowe#32]

Both teams absolute garbage.

How Collingwood were considered a top 4 chance a few weeks ago is baffling.

Who do you think drove that? It certainty wasn't the Collingwood supporters. The strong majority think that finals is our ceiling this year.

Barely 3 pages, this is the slowest game day thread I've ever seen.

Props to whoever it was with the thread last week questioning the leadership of Pendlebury. Good call that

And it involves Collingwood..err winning...hard to understand really.

Varcoe got 29 disposals at 100% efficiency tonight, is that the highest number of disposals that were all effective by a player ever?

Without knowing for sure, I'd guess that it would be, or at least be an extremely rare occurrence.

I'd say that's probably the best game he's ever played in his AFL career, too.

Unfortunately I'd have to go with the 2011 GF

Brownlow votes:

3. - Travis Varcoe (Collingwood)
2. - Scott Pendlebury (Collingwood)
1. - Marley Williams (Collingwood)

Very hard to deny Pendlebury the three votes given his performance (35 disposals, 3 goals, 4 goal assist) in his 200th game, as he was really the catalyst for everything (as usual), but I was just that impressed/surprised with Varcoe that I think he deserved it.

Pendlebury is quietly having a consistently great season (once again). I'd have him on 9 votes from 8 games so far.
