Hi guys
I haven't been very active on the forums here for a while but figured i'd let everyone know and get the word out that myself and a mate of mine (lions supporter ffs) are starting a new Supercoach podcast launching this time next week. We've just launched our twitter and fb if you were...
Before yesterday finals were completely out of the equation. Before today's West coast game we are actually a shot of making the finals. Though in saying that so are Melbourne, Port and st Kilda as they will sit on the same points.
2 games behind and 7 games to go and percentage behind a lot...
I have noticed recently that Pendles has been deliberately driving into tackles when in impossible situations to draw free kicks.. Is this a result of seeing others doing it and him using the technique?? I think he is a star but I would hate for this to tarnish his reputation.
Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I have this idea that I think would benefit the longevity of the game. The call has been made many times by coaches and players that the season is too long and it should be cut back. Ideally this would mean a 17 round fixture with each team playing...
Interesting that on the telecast yesterday Tom Harley I think it was thought Alan Toovey and Mooney could start competing for the name chant by the crowd.. Obviously same name as Cam Mooney which is why he brought it up.. Does he have a nickname? I think he will certainly be a cult figure for...
The Press, or the zone defense that we employ from a behind scored simply isn't working, or rather, isn't working as well as it has in the past. The simple fact is, teams have worked out that if you push numbers to one side you can usually clear the ball quite easily by hand and find open...
So i've just done a quick search and it seems there is no parking at the Stadium. :thumbsd: :thumbsd:
Having been to the coast many times, I can assure you that there is little to no parking on side streets etc... The stadium itself is about a 10 minute drive from Surfers Paradise.
The best...
Hey all!
Last night I had my first online experience... Didn't go too well but i think my biggest losing margin was 4 goals so alot of room for improvement. One guy though threw a huge curveball. From the centre ruck rontests he had the ability to move his rovers out a few metre's before the...
It would have to be one of Matera or Swallow. I'm leaning towards Matera due to his 4 quarter performance, but Swallow's last quarter blew me away...
I know the rounds not over but you would think one of these 2 would be a dead set shoe in.
I'm looking for clarification regarding the free kick paid against Dale Thomas on Friday night regarding the incorrect disposal of the ball. If you didn't see it basically he held it above a player and punched overhand instead of underhand.
The thing i can't work out it is, where does it say...
I know alot of them have been gimmies.... But Cloke has currently kicked 7 goals 1 behind...
Thats 87.5%...
Benefitting huge from Dawes presence up the ground... Which begs the question... Who should have permanent CHF?
:D:D:D:D
RICHMOND WERE ROBBED!
A player should have the right to concede a behind if he is being tackled... Total and utter crap. Deledio got a hand to milne's last goal. Clearly seen on video. You should be able to call a video ref for that. The 7 point play is crap. Agree with the free kick, and it...
Hey guys!
Didn't notice any sticky threads regarding DT discussion this year, (perhaps we could set one up?) but just seeing who would be interested in a Collingwood BF league. I'm sure this has been going on for ages but i'm still a newbie to the DT but last year i went ok.
Again if there...
I'm so sick of all the pessimistic attitude of colli-haters. This thread is designed to inform the uneducated that its alot harder than you think to make the road tougher for collingwood this year...
First of all Collingwood beat every team in the Home and Away season last year except...
FB: Heath Shaw - Chris Tarrant* - Nick Maxwell
HB: Harry O'Brien - Ben Reid - Ben Johnson
C: Dale Thomas - Dane Swan - Sharrod Wellingham
HF: Alan Didak - Travis Cloke - Andrew Krakouer
FF: Brad Dick - Chris Dawes - Leigh Brown
R: Jolly - Ball - Pendlebury
Interchange: Alan Toovey...
Hey everyone!
This is a call out to all Brisbane Collingwwod fans that want a little more Collingwood next year.
With the announcement that the GC would play a big melbourne club at the launch of the new stadium in Kararra you would think Collingwood are a shoe in to fill that role and I...
Watched the game again today and I honestly don't understand how he got the medal. Is it because Pendlebury just gets noticed more?
Players who I thought we're better than Pendlebury:
1. Steele Sidebottom
2. Dale Thomas
3. Nathan Brown
4. Darren Jolly
5. Luke Ball
6. Heath Shaw
He did some...
Apologies if this has already been covered but i couldn't find the gold coast rumour/speculation thread.
Was just wondering if anyone had some insight into GC and the prospect of Josh Fraser getting booted up North at years end...
I personally would like Fraser to stay if not purely to keep...
Leigh Brown - 12 Tackles.... Thats right, 12.. More than anyone on the Geelong team and second only to Luke "The Man Possessed" Ball...
Held his own in the ruck, only had 10 disposals but wow 12 tackles. My hat is off to you, sir.
It seems ol' mate Rohan Connelly saw a different game than I did and gave Dane 8 votes, equal BOG with Harry O... SP, LB and AD polled 7 each. Not complaining though!
Hodge didn't poll.
Dane Swan - 94
Luke Hodge - 91

Forgive me if I'm off the mark but i was under the impression that Swan got the Jones tag. Didak had a bit in the first quarter but i'm pretty sure Swan copped it for the majority of the match.....
Can anybody clarify...
Tyson Goldsack has played his role in our team so well that i just can't believe we will have to drop him. Has come in and performed his role perfectly and I think he deserves some kudos.
Today he had:
7d, 5m, 7t, 6 1%'s and 100% DE......
He's had that kind of consistency since he was...
Ins: Davis, Macaffer
Out: Cloke, Anthony
Interesting to note no real replacement for Cloke and they will go relatively small in the forward line. I wonder how much game time in the ruck Jolly will play.
Congrats macaffer after a stellar 2's performance.
Suprised to see Davis ahead of...
Hi!
I watched the game last night and was bewildered by the call against Wellingham on Gary Rohan.
Wellingham had no intent to collect him high and the contact was minimal and caused by Rohan running into him and not the other way around, his arms were over his torso as Rohan ducked into...
Hey guys!
Has anyone heard anything relating to the above injuries and their availability for the Sydney game?
Do you think its better to rest these players this week as a precausion with the travel and have them back the following week which is btw against WC at Etihad... (why at etihad???)...
Let me start this post by commending the coaching staff and players. I think they have done a fantastic job this year. Going into the split round 8-3-1 is a great effort and very impressive considering we were highly competitive in most of the games we have dropped.
Having said that I'd like...
Was just doing some Ladder predictor to see how everyone may fair come the end of year and I couldn't help but notice how easy the run home for some teams are. Granted, the AFL is not to know pre-season how good the form of certain teams will be in any given year (ala Fremantle) though,
It...
1. Maxwell getting pinged for a push in the back in their forward line... Looked in the side but i'll let it go.. Football is football after all.. Goal Results
2. Brown doing the exact same and i would suggest far more obviously and getting paid the mark... Goal Results
3. Jack takes a 2...
