Richmond winning, being in super form is bad luck for us though. I feel only WC has any chance against them, and this may play on the Cats minds.

The Cats will come out hard for sure, we just need to keep our cool and weather the storm
Don’t know what to think of this game, it’s a crazy old time lol!
No reason why we won't come out hard too. If NN dominates Stanley we've already won half the match.
Oh of course! We definitely need to come out hard and be ready...
I assume they will bring Stanley in... but not sure how his confidence levels will be. Big ask for their coaching staff to build it up (sans Scott because as we know, he would never admit making a mistake).

Not really.
There has been many games where rucks dominate and their team gets flogged.
Its all about field position these days.
If Nic is dominating he needs to turn it into i50s and forward momentum.
Not win the tap and break even/Cats win it back.

This is where the fixture equalization is clearly not working. Cats and Lions are the weakest top 2 in a long time. Both could realistically be out in straight sets.
Then you look at the middle pack and bomber and bullflogs that made it in. Both got absolutely reamed. Clearly the top 6 are easily a level above the rest.

True, but that Natanui - Gaff - Shuey trio is one we didnt have last finals series. That's gotta be pretty fearsome.
Look at all those MCG finals. VFL would be loving this

That Cockerfitt(?) flog? yes please. If we win next week and get smacked the week after it'd be worth it sticking it to that kent.
I’m pretty confident that with Nic we can beat Geelong and Richmond for a rematch with the Pies. Would be such a day.
I should add that the Pies are the team I would most like to see win the flag apart from us.

Why not, that's the media opinion of 2018 Richmond.
If we get up over Cats, there go all of our potential Friday night fixtures for 2020 in one fell swoop.

What do you mean?
Historically we don't get too many prime time TV games. A potential two 'extras' in one year will see us break the bank.
This Friday night fixturing is a rort anyway.
Historically Collingwood have been the big winners - even when underperforming.
McGuire & the Pies reamed the AFL a beauty when, they 'offered' to participate in more Friday night games, play away games at the G to help struggling clubs and so on as trade off for the adopted a better 'home final' rule for inter-state teams.
Loved how McQuire made himself and the Pies out to be heroes when all they were doing is increase marketing presence and the dollars rolled in the back door.
And, just in case anyone didn't know/suspect, on yesterdays ABC Sportstalk Malthouse stated AFL house was not willing to stand up to McQuire. For further evidence see 'alternate strip' debacle.

Brisbane's logo looks pissed at the result, while the tiger is like "yeeeeeeeeeeesh".
Why? What's McGuire gonna do? Pull Collingwood out of the AFL?
The AFL have no reason to be scared of Eddie. If they piss him off, what can he do? Quit his position? Boo-frigging-hoo, his club is Collingwood. Its not like they're gonna collapse without him.
He'll use his extensive media platform to criticise them. They're terrified of criticism, which is why the only people left in the commercial AFL media game are massive sycophants.
A West Coast v Collingwood GF rematch would be glorious.

AFL is a boys club and Eddie is definitely one of the boys. There is still very much a feel about AFL (and Gil) that what is good for Collingwood (and other big Melbourne clubs) is good for the AFL.

After beating a red hot Richmond in the PF.
On paper, Prelim final will be the biggest test. We got this!
Malthouse has an axe to grind.
Also in breaking news AFL looks after the big clubs.
Very realistic chance both 1 and 2 placed teams will exit in straight sets next week.

Feels like GWS has it easier than us despite winning 2 less games, Brisbane & Coll seems like an easier path to the GF. Hopefully if we get past Geelong, only losing to Richmond by a goal at the MCG in round 22 will give us some confidence.

I reckon our first two rounds are easier than theirs. Would rather play Magpies than Tigers in Prelim, but we aren't playing just to make a Grand Final. Any team who wants to win the flag is going to have to beat the Tigers at some stage or another, whether it is a Prelim or Grand Final doesn't really matter.
If we have to travel three weeks in a row, I'd prefer not to have a trip to Brisbane in there. Melbourne is closer.
