Why you though - think very carefully....the fish rots at the head. Good luck Pies/Tiges GF good for footy. We both have to get there first Geel v GWS??? NOT THE SAME.
BBC1967 - How are you?
Whats your thought on tonights game?
Easy win or still some worries about the Cats who have been one of your bogey sides in the past?

Good - like you very nervous. After 2018 finals are a lottery.
 
Apparently they would have had 3 ex gws players but sadly, you're a club with no history, no fans and really little place being in the competition. An AFL toy, handed cash on a platter, handed players privileges, draft picks, all placed in an area of Sydney that couldn't give a rat's about what you do.
Probably good to remember that there was a time when collingwood had no history either. Obviously humility is not your strong point.

Even when my club was flying 2007-09 I always felt nervous finals time, particularly at the pointy end

Anyone who says otherwise I question whether it’s more front than genuinely feeling ultra confident

Like Fremantle, we were born from the community, gws and WC are an AFL creation. So the bias that the gws fan talks of are laughable.
 
Would Whitfield and Greene’s absence subconsciously affect Pies players?
Don't know - Greene played well on us last time we played them when they won. Maynard beat him in last years finals though (Greene only got 9 touches) playing tag team with Langdon. Up until this year Greene had only kicked 1 goal against the Pies in his 5 games he had played us.

Whitfield was more of a concern - has played well against us in the past.

Don't think the Pies will get ahead of themselves though. With Pendlebury, Sidebottom etc there should be enough experience and cool heads to cover that.

The concern is getting off to a good start after the weeks break. Got to get the momemtum early.
Lower the eyes and don't just bomb it into the forward line.
I think GWS will try and continue with the rough stuff, Greene or no Greene.
I just hope Mumfield doesn't "accidentally" injure Grundy.

Did Eddie not give you your spanking today or something?
You seem salty.

Like WC breaking away from wafl, Collingwood were a breakaway club from the vfa to form vfl. WC helped kickstart AFL so we have a lot in common. Time creates history and mystique to a club and WC will have a solid history in another 50 years. By then Collingwood could be one of the few Melbourne teams left. Things change.
 
Any objectively minded person would consider that based on a comparable analysis of the outs of GWS against the outs of Pies, GWS are starting behind the 8-ball. Nevertheless, both start the game with 22 players and injuries can go either way when the ball is bounced. Smart money though is on Collingwood for good reason.
As Wheatley and Riewoldt said like for like not in the same league and some comparsons downright embarrassing.Go back to corporate financing.Hope you are much better at that.
So when Pies talk about injuries, whether it’s 2018 or 2019, it’s no biggie, ok cool, I get it.
 
After the Essendon mystery-syringe drama, how can the AFL sit back and allow one of their players, De Goey, flying to Germany to be injected with
Actovegin, an amino acid-rich concoction obtained from the blood of veal calves and contains, among others things, the natural lubricant thyaluronan sucked from the combs of dead roosters. It is injected directly into the damaged tissue along with “a mixture of homoeopathic substances”.

Collingwood should be subjected to the same standards that Essendon was when it comes to the health and safety of it's players.
