Changes For Next Week. No changes.

[Cousin of Daicos]

You are a bit of a doom and gloom kind of guy?

Well still do well tomorrow I reckon

Not doom and gloom, just realistic.

Which was followed by an 8 goal win over Geelong the week after. Does that make a loss this week very predicatable?

My guess, knowing us, is a loss this week followed by an upset over Port. That's more our MO.

Utterly deflating!

I care more about the VFL result then the AFL Result

As I have said in plenty of posts I agree with the consensus that Blairs time is up and he is lucky to be getting a game this year. Still he did a good enough job last week to keep his spot this week. If I had a say I would like Kirby in instead but accept the MC sees merit in Blair this week. Broomy and Aish have been underwhelming this season so need to do more to establish themselves. I have no qualms about the MC having them in the 2nds currently. Their form doesnt anywhere near warrant automatic inclusion.

Can't wait to see the blinder he plays this week... But in all fairness is currently leading the 'Jack Frost falling over when no-one is near you" award.

Blair or Kirby, Blair/Kirby, Blair/Kirby, Blair/Kirby. KIRBY!

No offence. But players, especially of their age, shouldn't be needing a break.

Wells is the obvious exception to that, but Grundy, Treloar, and pretty much anyone else on our list should be ready to show up to work every week.

Trelaor is playing injured.

 

[loki04]

The game I watched last week, he was all class. Definitely worth a shot. Needs some endurance though

I think he meant to play this week due to ankle injury.

Trelaor is playing injured.

What's his injury?

 

[loki04]

Was invisible for the first half when we were dominant, did a couple of good things in the second half, then gave away a crucial free kick in the dying moments of the game through incredibly poor decision making for the second time this year.

People are hell bent on finding fault in his game because they're sick and tired of watching sub standard battlers like him running around getting games ahead of developing younger players with more talent just because he 'works hard'.

6 touches in first 3 quarters of footy including being a fwd in a team very dominant in the first half. If a kirby or Daicos or Brown cant match that I'll go he.

Played better in the last with his typical mistakes.

Apparently he has OP and also hip issue. They obviously deem it to not worsen by playing or get better with short term rest... i dont know.

We recruited him with that problem, he manages it by a lighter load during the week as it flares up

 

[magpie_marty]

If that comes....

And the young Turks go up by natural progression .... then we may just be a fine side

It's ahead of us now....

The winning post or the bell tower ?

The winning post or the bell tower ?

The famous clock tower would get a start

 

[ThexderX]

I've never been more certain as to the fact we will drop this game against Norf.

So many good efforts get followed up with dross...players will once again start getting big heads thinking they are actually good.

He never used to be but he's soured.

One can always de sour

And if not, use the sour wine as vingegar - nice salad dressing

So you think Treloar has no hip/groin issue and is playing 100%?

 

[MISFITS]

Apparently = " I read it on Bigfooty so it must be true"

His running action is a dead give away.(you run like an Ol'man)
Short sprints rather than gut running.
The hips, Groins, are all inter-connected with the OP.
Whole mid compartment gets affected.
And you can play footy with it.
One of the most common injuries.
Just needs managing.
A big concern given Adam already had minor surgery before arriving at the Pies.
Let's just place our faith in the Collingwood physios.

 

[Apex36]

So you think Treloar has no hip/groin issue and is playing 100%?

The reports from multiple posters stating that he can barely get out of a shuffle at training and that he couldn't bend over to pick up a ball at their kid's clinic are obviously clever fabrications.
