AFL Round 11 - Collingwood v Melbourne - Monday June 11th MCG - 3.15pm

[speedytiger]

I'd tip Young to miss, if no injuries. Aaron Davey is playing for Casey today.

Didn't see Davey in 2nd half today. Not sure what happened, maybe they are keeping him for monday?

 

[Shade]

Good i hope they do one more pea heart out there for them

Didn't see Bate in VFL today either. Maybe Davey was reported for unduly soft play?

 

[Tbone McGraw]

I know people won't agree but i am glad young has been another chance. He will probably be sub anyway but i still think we can turn him into an afl player.

 

[eddiebankbalance]

his last game was ok, maybe he is a late bloomer, can only hope

Do not agree, terrible player and looks like the wrestler 'sheamus'

 

[jimmy35]

Must say I dont see a lot in him to suggest he'll make it.

 

[gravy1]

Surprised Wood was dropped, thought he was great last week!

 

[Captivating]

I am hoping to see Taz get through the game as I think he's going to be our FF come finals. Get some fitness and touch back and then line up at FF.

Pleasing.

LOL! Possible new club award for the 'Dees'? Soft player of the year.

 

[SnakePlisskin]

Maybe they're rotating rucks , who knows .

 

[Number 10]

Well you guys have direct experience and as well as that, you outnumber me....retreats with tail between legs....
...ah, here's a nice log....how to get beneath it....

On a more serious note, Davey is a decent in for Melbourne...those guys with extreme pace do trouble us sometimes, no Toooves who may have been his match-up.

Haha sorry didn't mean to make u feel like that. I thought I saw on the feed that davey played in the vfl? Can anyone confirm this.

 

[blaze036]

Ugle should be in instead of young i reckon

 

[Nicco_jj]

Young for sub?

 

[Outstanding]

Essendon choking in a major way, a win tomorrow puts us top of the ladder.

 

[Temploar]

Against a kid...

 

[carnthepies19]

Anyone know what's up with Tooves? Late out last week, and now hasn't come back or played VFL.

Monday. But

Anyone know what's up with Tooves? Late out last week, and now hasn't come back or played VFL.

Injured would be my wild guess.

 

[Temploar]

According to twitter tooves has exams :O study > footy obviously

Nah, probably just a minor niggle.

 

[blaze036]

When u consider how young the ruckmen he was playing on... his game wasnt that great.

A good ruckmen at his age should of dominated against hickey, however hickey was just as good as wood or perhaps even better

 

[cfx_1]

Sydneys win tonight means that if we win Monday, we will be outright top of the table! For a week at least... Lol thanks sydney..

 

[Tbone McGraw]

Not sure if this is relevant to this thread but if we win and bombers lose to Sydney in Sydney, do we go outright top. Eagles and crows have the bye, so i assume they don't get the 4 points.

Will be great to see us at our rightful place, even if it may only be for a week.

Hate to quote myself but we are about to be in our rightful spot.

Have the Dees gone tall down back or what! With Watts (196 cm 91kg), Sellar (196cm 95kg), Frawley (193cm 93kg), McDonald (194cm 88kg) and Rivers (192cm 92kg) named in their starting back 6. We kicked 14 goals from our small forwards last week so if the ball gets to ground in our forward 50 this week we may cause them some sever headaches.

... so if the ball gets to ground in our forward 50 this week we may cause them some sever headaches.

By "sever headaches", do you mean we'll cause them to run around like headless chooks?
