Game Day Collingwood vs Western Bulldogs 7:50 pm. MCG

[dergert]

Can't say that this game has filled me with confidence. Have to improve markedly to be a chance next week.

 

[Cadillac]

Looks like he got the wind knocked out of him and then his ankle twisted underneath him when he fell.

Thank **** for that.

 

[Ant_]

Morris walking ok now

 

[Easty]

Anyone able to get a stat of how many goals Collingwood scored from front and centre crumbs? Reckon it'd be a high number, and something we need to address defensively

 

[dergert]

Ok, our stoppages and clearances need to be cleaned up big time. Gia is our coach in that area so I'm concerned.

 

[Next Waiting]

A bit rusty across the board but we found a way to win. I thought Fletch was excellent.

 

[Ant_]

We need a full time ruck back in the team

It'll be helped with a true first ruckman Bontempelli back at full fitness to, so I'm not as concerned
Collingwood have an excellent midfield & not much else, it was a pretty similar story last year when we played them as well, if I recall correctly...

Grundy destroyed us.

Was it Joel Corey or Steven King in charge of our stoppages last year? Has their roles changed this year, too?

Should have tried Jong for 5 mins, just to mix it up, he's strong and can jump.

 

[Substance]

Wasn't good that we got beat in the midfield. Is good that we still won anyway. Loved the cheer after Cloke's goal!

 

[jamesDP]

4 Points, take it any day and night.

 

[Dogsman16]

Meh. Pretty good game and I thought Collingwood were pretty good. We did enough and I thought Tom Boyd did pretty well in the ruck contest most of the night. Hope that's a one off though he needs Campbell/roughy back ASAP.

 

[ScragCity]

Pissed it in. Coulda kicked another 20 goals if we needed to

Could have been a much larger margin for sure. Unfortunately, it's not.

Yup. Unsure of Corey, but king is the defensive coach.

 

[Easton Thighs]

Yup. Unsure of Corey, but king is the defensive coach.

Ok thanks.

 

[ExRoyboy]

Glad to get away with that one... certainly didn't play our best and looked a little winded for most of the game but still good enough and classy enough to win.
Definitely think we will be better over the coming weeks but will need to step it up big time next week if we want to beat the Swans. Sure hope that Moz is OK as well.... he is one of the main keys to our team. Our defence looks very unsettled when he doesn't play.

 

[Yojimbo]

Ching - 5 Votes Jarryd Blair ( He has to have photos, nasty ones.)
Umpires- As good as ever.

A month off at least for some of the players, bank the points.

My feed was great this morning. I've even been able to watch the FoxFooty after match stuff. Almost 7am and I'm going to bed. Until next week...

Corey is the midfield coach

Think he was development last year

 

[dergert]

Impressed with crameri tonight, put in a good showing. I was a harsh critic of suckling until half time, he was massive in driving it up forward.
Definitely need smith in next week imo.

 

[offtherails9]

Would've given #39 the medal personally

Sleep well and dream of that day back in October 2016 again!!
