Positives?

[Nic]

I didn't go or watch the highlights - can anyone who did pick out any positives from today's dismal, terrible . . . well, you get the drift, performance? Shaw missed the game???

 

[daicos4ever]

No positives. None at all.

 

[Rival_V]

Josh.

Brodie.

Molloy.

A week off.

Yep that's about it!

 

[Perty4]

Josh Fraser
16 possies, 15 hit outs, 3 goals.
I thought Holland and Obree tried their guts out to get 20 touches.

 

[daicos4ever]

In my overwhelming anger and frustration I forgot about Josh. Sorry, big fella.

Rupert will be in round 13.

 

[Ugle]

We worked out theat we lose nothing in including Davis in the trade for Judd and Didak in the trade for Nick Stevens.

 

[McGough27]

There was no 5th Quarter .

 

[Babylove]

Positives in today's match:

Josh Fraser: he's playing well and his rucking is improving

 

[Ron]

I was at the game

The only thing i liked was Josh
Maybe Molloy's first quarter

rest was crap

time to face facts

we are in trouble

next game is against the bulldogs. i am already having nightmares about Johnno and Brown kicking 12 between them

 

[Murray]

I was there.
Words that come to mind are:
Inept
Disinterested
Noncommital
Pathetic
Driverless
That was the first quater, it got worse from then on.

 

[Murray]

And
Insipid
Self destructive
Leaderless
Floundering
Lackluster

I do think Brodie Holland deserves a bit more credit, he held Crawford well in check and Crawford did get a lot of consolation possessions at the end.

Josh Fraser just keeps on improving doesn't he. We have the next Michael Gardiner with him in my opinion, he's just gotta build up a heap more.

 

[Zeke]

I agree with Hoggy.

Fraser seems to have really found his feet in the last couple of outings. I still maintain that he would be a scary thought for all opposition teams with an extra 10-15Kgs on his frame.

 

[Lockyer24]

Josh.

Shows more character to be the only one out there showing some heart in a drubbing rather than getting a heap of kicks (last week week) against meek opposition.

Ironic we get a great game from our ruckman and still lose by a fair margin.

 

[tess]

Well its not the worst game I`ve seen us play, but it was the worst for a while.

Molloy did well in the 1st, then went missing was benched and when he came back on in the last tried without support.

Bucks shouldn`t have played! but I think with Shaw out we only had one emergency in MCG.

Fraser will be better for a full day rucking against a quality opponant like Spider, I hope he learned a lot.


I`m starting to really get over this season, but live in hope for the 2nd half of the year. We have quality at Willy give the current senior side one more game after the break then start cutting if they don`t perform.

 

[Murray]

Fraser did NOT win in the ruck.
He won around the ground, although Holland destroyed him from late in the third and all of the last there too, but he did not beat Spider in the Ruck.
Why do us Collingwood supporters accept as being a good thing, when we say "Gee it was good, Josh was beaten but he was not thrashed. How fantastic is that.

 

[Nic]

That's for the input, happy people. Good to hear a bit about Josh and Brodie having decent games. Shame about the rest of the team.

 

[hotpie]

The big negative is that Molloy gets to stay in the side for another week. And McGough gets another game or two to turn the ball over at every opportunity.

Positives are Brodie and Josh.
Thats it.

Buckley fully fit , Shaw and Rupe will improve the side next time around. Swan should also be considered. Presti jsut had a bad day he'll be ok next time around.
