Game Day Match Discussion - RD 7 vs. Essendon. Fri 25/04 @ 3:20pm (MCG) ANZAC Day

[parano1a]

What’s the point of fly publicly saying how desperate he is to get games into Allan then playing him for 8 mins as sub and dropping him?

He gets a full 4 quarter game in the VFL I guess.

 

[parano1a]

Love that we're wearing a white jumper with black shorts today.

What's your source on that? An official looking memo from the AFL on the Jumpers Board has us in white shorts. Which is the best option in my opinion unless Essendon bring back red shorts.

 

[Doc1763]

no queue whatsoever, straight in. now I have to sit here for 2 hours!
on the plus side, I managed to get one of those 30 year ANZAC Day scarves.

Black for home games. Don's in white.

Security just waved me through

Hope you’re not dodgy!!

They wanted me to open my seat cushion. I must look suss lol

 

[Gabbo64]

I would be confident of a 10 goal win on any other day, but today, geez I'm poop'n myself

 

[Matt_352]

In the nose bleeds but here on this day for the first time in a long time, COME ON PIES!!!!!

 

[Kes1984]

Treated myself to a new guernsey

 

[CheckerTrade666]

Shame that Schultz isn’t fit to the play, this weather would suit him.

That being said, does anybody have Mark McGough’s number? Feels like he could do a job in the wet today.

Not always the case. Look at the shorts worn on Easter Monday.

Well that would be the smart option clash wise. But I fear black is for home games. I hope they use common sense though, even though I prefer our kit with black shorts. Makes us look more intimidating.

The Anzac Day jumper this year has a white back/base.

Collingwood Facebook page just showed Nick Daicos wearing the Anzac jumper with black shorts.

Fair enough, guess the uniform match ups will approximate the 1990 Grand Final which is a good omen for us.

 

[Magland]

Best kit combo.

At Gate 3 already waiting for my mates to show up, just saw Peter McKenna.

The goat! finally got his hands on that cup

They should have a curtain raiser for big games.

Ditto, no checks at all and I have a backpack....

PSA: All City Loop trains have suspended due to a trespasser on the tracks at Flinders Street.

Probably Brad Scott trying to reduce the upcoming public humiliation.

 

[London Pie]

Pissing down in Ballarat, had to give my ticket away due to work, hope you all get drenched
Go Pies!!!

 

[Stoods]

Sipping on my coffee at Southern Cross due to these delays and I can't tell if it's the pre game nerves or the coffee but things are moving very quickly unlike these trains...
