Andrew Collins

Thought Andrew Collins was very good for Carlton Tonight even tho they lost.. thoughts..?

 

[Bazzar]

Thoughts? Couldnt give a toss.

Thoughts are that this thread will be deleted/moved in 5...4...3... because he isn't on our list anymore.

Also think his disposal needs some serious work.

Andys father stormed the beaches at Normandy!

He is going to have a break out game for Carlton soon he is just a little bit edgy with the pill. Typical Andy though , never stops trying just like when he was with us. He's a solid tryer our Andy!

 

[TheTigerArmy]

Agreed

He played ok. Still, would rather Grigg.

Yes i agree Grigg is better..maybe he will do his apprenticeship at Carlton and them come back to us ..he bleeds Tiges..

 

[nut]

starting to play like he owns his spot.... hopefully they give him the rest of the season in the 1's

I hope they delist him so we can pick him up. Always knew how to find it.

His disposal was rather good tonight...rather have Collins than White out there...

His delivery by foot around the 50 arc was very good..lot of lace out passes..

I'll concede that they did improve as the game went on, but there was a few early on that were atrocious. There was a shank that found the ground immediately instead of the i50 target and another (cant remember if it was a handball or kick) that was straight to a North player.

Always thought we should have just kept him and given Carlton a dud or just drafted Grigg with a late pick.

It's the same deal as delisting Rodan and putting Foley on the senior list years ago. Foley>>>Rodan and Grigg>>>Collins

Like many at the time, I was pretty sad about this trade though Grigg has shown himself to be a worthy pick up. Maybe one day Collins will return along with the associated 'wet towel' references.

Problem was that it wasn't a case of one for the other. We could have had both in both cases.

This. Know's how to find it. Would obviously prefer Grigg but I love Collins too. His disposal efficiency has been down due to him winning more of his own, hard ball.

As a 17 year old, there haven't been too many exciting times in my football viewing, but his last-ditch match-winning 2-goal performance after being KOed against Sydney, especially after being 40 points down, is right up there.

As is Brown's 5-goal last quarter on Clement in 05
And Richo's in the back at DreamTime
And Bowdens match winning rushed behinds v Ess, match winning performance and mark v port and match winning 4 goals v bris in what i think were rds 13,16 and 17.

Only thing im dissapointed in with the Grigg-Collins trade is it should of Been Grigg-Connors Trade !

Connors would of played 200 games for carlton with their culture

Good post , Carlton gets another Flog on their list and we keep one of the best humans on our list. Andy is the ultimate clubman.
