Hacked again I see

DT or Dandy Go...can we have a Positive Marthy avatar and a Negative Marty avatar
 
Probably Torney or maybe even Bassett to find him out going the other way

Pies did well to beat Essendon but they are a few years off being any good

Crows should win easily depending on fall out from Freo game,

How would they find anyone out going the other way?

Why are you predicting Collingwood to be no good, we missed top 4 by a bees d.ick last year?

We also were quite close against the Crows at AAMI last year?

Theres not a lot of reasoning behind your predictions here.

It'll be interesting to see if NC still thinks of Kenny as a back up ruckman now that Griffin is playing OK and continually improving?

On the note of back-up ruckmen for Hudson (and I know it is early days), I would like to see the crows consolidate a rucking combination well before the finals- we all know how important the big men are in the big games. Though Griffen is filling-in admirably at the moment, you would not expect his light frame to last a seaosn of ruck. Once Maric is fit we need to give him as much game time as possible. McGreggor isn't a ruckman.
 
you only have Rocca that's a big forward and well Rutten will keep him quite and if by some chance he does get it inside 50 he's more likely to spray it.

Would now be a good time to mention that Didak is South Australian? I rate him but I think we've got the players to keep him under control

I want to know who is going to be playing on Heath Shaw cos he's probably the only Collingwood player that's you would call star Quality these days!

+ you don't have tarrent to kick a goal after the siren anymore (which was a debatable goal collingwood supporters did'nt cheer after he kicked it...well until the umpire signeled a goal.....I wonder how much Eddie paid him?)

I'd say at this stage i'd expect a win but until the weekends game is over I can't make much more of an estimate as to how much we'll win by.

Very true, however there was constant talk of McGreggor in the new ruck role. The need for it may be fading?

I would like to give Meesen & Maric both a go, so all three can atleast have a shot at it. We may again be pleasantly surprised?
 
All depends on how Welsh, Bode and Reilly pull up. There may be a couple more injuries out of the game as well for us.

How close to goal is Didak playing this year? Haven't seen any of your games fully this year.

Wasnt much in our last contest and very encouraged by our performance on Anzac Day.

Crows have been hard to get a read on so far. Great win against the swans but ive been a bit unimpressed by the swans so far.

Will be interesting to see how you shape up against the dockers. Could be a tough one, probably a 50/50 game Id guess.


I think the pies can win, we always match up well against them, plus playing at AAMI wont bother us, with our recent results there, the ground is like a second home anyway.

Ill be there on Saturday night, i am driving over with my girlfriend on saturday morning from Melbourne, and i am very confident of a good win.

We were the better side on the night, you guys led by 29 points deep in the 3rd qtr, but we stormed home and won the game.


What a childish comment to make, we won in 2002 on the sunday, we were up by 65 points at half time mate, ended up winning by 4 goals.

Gonna be a tough game.Adelaide play very well at home,so the Pies have to switch on or the crows will cause a lot of havoc.
However,the crows do have a few injuries.Bode will not play,the roo is still out,mcgregor may play but he is not fully fit and burton is also suspect.
We will regain medhurst,and although the pies and crows match up well,we'll have rocca,medhurst,didak,cloke,fraser may drift forward and change with chris bryan,so on that premise we will outgun the crows,we will have to many forward options,even though Rutten may shut rocca down our little guys will be damaging.
Pies in a tight one by 8 points.

sorry mate but it's hard to convey sarcasm over the board, hence the brackets, I was kidding!!

should be a great match both sides tend to lift when playing against each other, I'm not sure If the crows are going to get up for this one the injuries just keep getting worse!! and hopefully the Umps are a little better than yesterday 9-22 what a joke!
