What exactly would you expect to get for Colyer? lol ridiculous.

Not sure Pies would be too interested. Elliott’s a gun btw

Could get an early 3rd.

Would package Green and Colyer for a pick in 20's and then give to Collingwood for Elliot

[Sporno 4 Pyros]

Don’t bore us, get to the chorus...so hows Franga and Ridley going??

 

[VelvetSledge]

ESS 11.6 (72) def. by COLL 14.14 (98)

The struggle continues.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Was looking forward to the VFL doing some damage in the finals and possibly winning a flag but now looks like we will barely make the 8

Disapointing.

I look forward to that appearing in the Collingwood board's equivalent of the delusional pearlers thread.

Like I said would offer it to Carlton sos liked giving picks away for GWS off cuts

This might be up there with your worst mate

The issue the VFL has right now is we are fielding a number of young inexperienced players due to the growing injury list of our AFL players.

1 goal and not named in the bests. Hartley named best on (Hooker forward?). Tells a story.

Will pay in likes for a game/player review.

Good to see Draper dominating the ruck again. We need Boyse back badly, our forward line is s**t.

 

[ant555]

Watched the first 3/4 and some of the last.
Hartley was super. Backed himself to attack the ball and was in everything.

Francis did what he has been doing. Just reads the play so well. They used him at some centre bounces as a big body and he did well with that. Good sign that his role has been expanded.

Draper was bloody good as well. Not only is he doing a real good job in the ruck contests his numbers around the ground are getting better. He could have nearly had 30 possessions as he dropped a few marks here and there.

Much was steady throughout the game. Started in the middle and played the whole game on ball.

Mynott does some good stuff. Progressing well.

Ridley did not have his best game but he was still good enough. Got involved and read the play ok.

Stewart got most of his footy leading up at the ball further up the ground. Was double teamed a lot when he was close to goal.

Luenberger played mainly forward but just could not hold a mark and he got hands to a few of them.

Laverde was better after a slow first quarter. Did spend some time at half back. Did a few good things but no real influence on the game.

Clarke also had a slow start before finding the ball a bit. Has been better.

Rest where pretty plain and the Pies made sure they put some work into Hind which stopped a lot of run.

Our young VFL players can get caught just off the pace at times which allowed the Pies to get on the outside. That half a second of ball watch and lack of experience has hurt us two weeks in a row letting teams get a run on down the ground and behind the last line of defence. They are all giving 110% but the lack of experience and consistent games puts them just a little behind VFL level over a whole game. We are probably 2 or 3 experienced VFL players short of covering but what can you do when they are not guaranteed a VFL game every week when we have most of the AFL list available.
