Im ********ing sick to death of watching collingwood drop Dane Swan.. They did it to him last year when he was playing almost as good as he is this year.

It could be because of his turning up late to training but iam still quite ********ed of at this he gathers possesions well and isnt a bad player at all better than most of the players on our list actually. :mad:

Good to see o'bree dropped for once,lol. He's alright but hes to soft.

And well done to H Shaw.. good luck mate and same with J cloke you deserve it

They deserve to be dropped i predicted that both of them would!
you cant have players misbehaving and getting paid to do it! I uderstand that they are young and whatever but the fact is they get paid alot and alot rides on how they prepare themselves for games!

suprising.

Didn't expect to see Swan and O'Bree omitted, but, oh well...our season is officially over (mathematically still a chance) but I love to see Jason Cloke up there. IMO he was our best player against St.Kilda last time, and I won't be suprised if he sneaks in a brownlow vote.

Agreed, Ben Johnson (as much as i love him as a footballer) should have been on the chopping list before Dane.

Disagree - Shane O'Bree should never have been dropped. He has had a very good year, expectations wise, be honest.

Shane O'Bree is unlucky. He has been playing great football for us over the last month.

Other then that it seems like Mick has made the right changes. Probably Mick was a bit harsh on Swan, but he needs to turn up to training on time.

Swan and ROwe deserved to get dropped, not for their football though

Dropping O'Bree is a disgrace, i think Mick has finally gone insane, some appaling decisions mixed in with some good ones

In -
Woewodin - Will be used to tag, look for him to take Ball or Del Sato
Didak - lets hope he keeps his head straight
Walker - Big body to replace Trav cloke, his last chance in Pie colours
H.Shaw - I've been waiting for this.
Rusling - Will play at Full Forward with Buckley. It'll allow Tarrant to lead up the ground and bag it back into the forward line, if he wants to.
J.Cloke - Plays St. Kilda well, was brought in to take Hamil I guess, has big point to prove and could be in for the game of his life.


Out -
T.Cloke - Needed the rest I think, big loss if was in the same form as early on
O'Bree - wasn't playing too bad
Swan - dropped because there wasn't a match up,
Rowe - Has to work on his kicking
Hall - didn't play toow ell in his first game, has a lot to learn
Cole - Played his last game for Collingwood I think.

O'Bree is our 2nd most creative midfielder behinds Bucks.
Always been a rap for him, however, he's had no influence on the past 2 games... badly tagged out of the games.

but not on his own in below par performances past 2 weeks.

Wouldn't be surprised if he's a late inclusion - Johnson's been way below par since his return from inj also !!!

O'Bree does drop off in pressure games and is nearly always quiet when we lose. He was in great form until his last 2 games. I heard O'Bree is injured anyway.
Swan definately not for form (although he can be frustrating to watch him not picking up loose players). Rowe needs to gain some confidence at Willy if that is possible.
Trav is either injured or knackered I don't know.

In - Woewodin - He's had a terrible year so I don't care what he does (probably not much)
In - Didak - Wow this guy can kick goals at least someone can for Collingwood
In - Walker - Is he our only ruckmun these days? If so I'm embarrassed
In - H.Shaw - Hopefully better than Rhyce. Rhyce is good sometimes but not a lot
In - Rusling - Meh
In - J.Cloke - He's ok he might be needed somewhere


Out - T.Cloke - Is he injured or soemthing?
Out - O'Bree - O'bree!!!!!!!
Out - Swan - It's about time too. Swan isn't that good
Out - Rowe - Wont be missed I wouldn't think
Out - Hall -I guess he came for his debut then left again. Seems to be what Collingwood have done lately
Out - Cole - Never liked Cole... should die in a hole

Meh.

We have nothing to lose. It's all about 2006 now, so chuck anyone in and see if they want to represent the club next year. I hope they play Brayden and Davidson next week.

Is davidson even playing willy seniors??

I am glad to see T.Cloke out. He's been overused this year. The kid is still a baby. Nurture him right and he will be a star.

I believe Davidson has played the last 3 or 4 games with Willi seniors and kicked a few goals.

I agree with Travis - give him a week or two to play for Willi.
