I thought he got to close to the man on the mark but he got the trip easy

Pies will get belted and will remain an average team at best. Bucks' despondent face already speaks volumes about the pressure he's under.
Dogs look sharp and will be hard to beat. I think they'll be better than 2016 and will give their Premiership defence a huge crack.

I loved the look of disappointment on Joffa's face when Cloke slotted that goal.
Priceless.

Pies pressing. Good. I didn't want a boring game Friday night. I can't see them doing any real damage, though.

Hahaha. That's hilarious. Duck having a crack at Fasolo for wanting the cheap one out the back and he duly gets it.

I like the Dogs but don't overly rate them. Don't think they'll make top 4.

It wouldn't surprise me. They are very well drilled but that can be hard to maintain.

Doggies have another gear where as this is it for Collingwood.
Wouldn't be surprised to see them kick something like 7 goals to 3 in the third quarter

No strong KPPs at either end of the ground and about half a dozen flankers. They thoroughly deserved their flag based on an exceptional finals series, but like the strong Ross Lyon-coached Saints/Freo sides, the Dogs are all about 100% intensity and as soon as it dips, they look vulnerable.
Agreed. A 24-10 deficit in clearances at half-time is a massive impediment to stamping your authority on a game.
And it's one of the really key reasons why we might struggle against the Pies yet again this year.
You'd think we'll need Stanley and/or Smith to be fairly handy against Grundy all game if we're not left to push water uphill against them once more.

Geez that's quality from Treloar. He's a jet.

Doggies have just flicked the switch the last 7 mins I reckon and blown it open
You were pretty well spot on here, Bob.
He's an absolute class player. Very good to watch. He'll have a big year and will be Collingwood's best player after Pendles, if he isn't already...

I think 17 other sides in the competition have that problem.
I think that the Dogs will go OK this year. They will more than likely outperform Geelong.
But unlike the strong Ross Lyon-coached Saints/Freo sides, the Dogs coached by Luke Beveridge, have a premiership cup in their trophy cabinet.

Reminds me of a Leicester City 2015/16 game in the Premier League.
Bulldogs getting dominated on inside 50s and time in forward half, but conceding very few dangerous opportunities and then just destroying the opposition on the counterattack any time they sniff the faintest chance to do so.
