Collins front and square

[Croat tiger]

Seems to have that Bartlett type radar about him,in the right the place at the at the right time for the crumbing goals.There is a lot to like about this kid.

 

[Richtigerz]

He seems to have a similar body type to Gibbs, and plays similar (I though) obviously not as good but similar traits..

Will be a decent type of player I say, needs to have some time in the seniors to learn but good long term player

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Barlett type radar... lmao. This guy cracks me up because of BigFooty.

 

[patto_man]

had a great start. hopefully he can use some of that dominating vfl form and use it in the AFL.

 

[theyellowsash]

i thought he looked a little lost/unaware at times but did some good things. hope he stays in the team for a while.

he looked pretty funny with that bandage his head was tiny compare to his body

 

[Azzleberry]

I though he had another good game... he was never going to play as well as he did last week, but he showed poise and good composure when hitting targets...Liked his game!!

 

[Bojangles17]

courageous young kid, he was just about buried by Petrie, some 30KG heavier...He reminds me of a young Brian Wood

 

[mellowyellow]

Normally he walks on water...tonight he was just treading it..meh

 

[richoatthedisco]

Bo, if he starts soaring for marks and dominating the wing like Wood, I will have wood. Wood is the most underrated Tiger hero of those glory years. Magnificent player.

dont remind me RAD...Pfft, losing Cousins and Judd, **** me in 12 months we lost Raines, Cloke, Wiley, Wood , has taken us 27yrs to recover...I sincerely hope for WC fans they can regroup a little quicker

 

[The Rusty Trombone]

I think his last 2 weeks have been great and if given more time he'll pick up the tempo of First Grade Footy quickly. Definately did enough to hold his spot although he did turn it over a couple of time.

I really like his enthusiasm. He just wants to be a part of everything doesn't he. One thing for sure is that Andy is certainly loving it out there and making the most of his opportunity and he doesn't look that much out of place.

I reckon he could of done 9 wet beach towels after that goal celebration. The cheer squad was loving him.

 

[RichosGuns]

Our 05 drafts and 06 drafts couldn't be any different

05: JON (finally starting to show something), Hughes (playing 3rd's), Casserly (delisted)

06: Riewoldt (30 odd games, looks good), Edwards (30 odd games, looks good), Conners (10 games, overrated but definatly has an upside), Collins (played 2 games and looks good)

The 07 draft with Rance and Cotch also might be a good one for us

I rate FJ, knows his stuff

Apparently when they peeled off the head bandage they accidentally pulled off a fair chunk of his hair so he's going the comb-over a la KB.

 

[beaver fever]

We need to pray that Collins continues to improve and can nail a spot in the 22. Seems a balanced footballer with good kicking skills. Exactly the type of player we need more of.

i dont think we need any divine intervention, greatest quality i see in this kid s a tremendous workrate that values the 1% ers ...more experience will see andy flourish

Collins is tougher than Gibbs

We certainly need an extraordinary set of circumstances to come to fruition in order for this club to realise a premiership dream.

hmm, like a premiership winning coach, not altogether that extraordinary

 

[beaver fever]

Changing coaches won't be enough.

 

[UpTheGuts]

He more prances than runs. Honestly, that is a compliment.

Nice start.

 

[beaver fever]

The physical similarities between Collins and Fiora are striking. Luckily I think that's where the similarities stop.

Amen to that.

Bartlett at 20 looked like a 40 year old man.
Collins at 20 looks like a 12 year old kid.

agree, he is fairly skinny and has a baby face.
