Collins

[thylacine60]

If he picks up where he left off last week he'll kick 3 and vote.

 

[mintleaf]

First game for an AFL club is a great moment in his career, all the best to him

Absolutely

 

[smasha]

Good luck Collo.

 

[Spluff]

All inter-club argy bargy aside, the guy can play. If you can manage to hold his body together and equip it for the rigours of AFL, you've got yourself a genuinely classy midfielder. Great skills, knows where the ball is, will play his ass off for the club. What holds him back is that he is constantly injured and can't play in the midfield for extended periods without breaking down.

 

[Sin City]

Nice hat

 

[Jabba73]

Glad we finally get to see him in action on the big stage. Now if he could only live up to the hype .......

 

[Cathal Brugha]

Sad to see him go and wish we had grabbed Griggs by some other means He is skilful and courageous. Ordinarily I wouldn't watch these 2 teams play but tonight I'll be barracking for Andy.

 

[Jack 17]

Quiet night from Andy. Maybe a little nervous. He can do a bit better but I think Grigg may end up a little better on performance to date.

 

[Alpha1]

Gave the Pies a goal when we were making a run, killed us.

 

[HeziBarecket]

he freaked out. The Richmond in him. Might take a year before we can deprogram 'the loser' in him!

 

[DamoESP]

Armfield would have been a far better sub tonight.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

You do know he came off as a sub half way through the third quarter?

 

[Alpha1]

Was a shit decision to leave Army out, was pissed out about that.

Came on in an intense game. .. Presented once he worked his way into the game. .. Cannot bag him for half a game. ..

 

[ctacp]

looks alot like hoops with the ball, had a fairly mediocre start though, few fumbles, few clangers.

looks like he could be good. coming on as sub i reckon is difficult for the player, no feel for how its going 3 quarters in.

ctacp
curlier than a catoggio pube

 

[Blueboys7]

Although the heat went out of the game he played quite well, apart from the errant handball but Yarran should have been moving forward (still Andy's fault though).

Struggled a bit I thought. Not an easy game to get into but. Looks slight and missed a couple of tackles he should have grabbed.

Stiff not to get paid that mark in the 3rd.

 

[LemmingMaster]

Come off it, he came onto the field and made an almost negative impact, rather disappointed at his performance.

 

[Dustyjackman]

Was as nervous as a shithouse rat this evening. Will improve on that, in fact, he has to.

 

[KnaveyBlue]

When is Houlihan due back?

 

[Claypigeon]

When is Houlihan due back?

Soon hopefully. .. He'll have to earn it through the VFL though, no free rides this year. ..

 

[Silvagnis]

When is Houlihan due back?

What does Houlihan have to do with Collins?

After a bad start, Collo settled and showed some poise as the game went on.

The last player who deserves to be dropped. #Carrazzo

 

[broady4]

Gotta question starting him as the sub and letting the nerves build and build. Then expect him to pick up the pace of the game instantly..

 

[Feva]

Made the Grigg trade look a shocker for us tonight.

Hopefully he improves.

 

[The Coach]

Gotta question starting him as the sub and letting the nerves build and build. Then expect him to pick up the pace of the game instantly..

Not sure the MC thought that one through but the kid used his fresh legs to pick up 7 marks and he will be a player.
The MC clearly did not expect to win the game putting a 2nd gamer in a KDP and then strangely leaving him there when there were KDP players up forward who were not setting the game on fire - could even have considered leaving on Walker (more versatile than some that could have been subbed) and even using him
Very happy with the performance however when you look at how many players will have 30+ games under their belt by finals next year and minus the couple who will not be able to get a game (Collingwood had no such players)
