Game Day Round 16, 2025: West Coast vs Collingwood

[bs9594]

Nice, hope you have reserved seats. The General Admission starts far down the back for Collingwood games.

Yep got a relatively good reserved seat for $44

At least this is at night, so when I have to start drinking to cope with watching, it doesn’t feel as bad as the 11 am games.

Looking forward to the first "Mini has to go" post.

I'm guessing midway through the second.
Maybe we should have a poll

When you say midway through the second, you mean minute, right?

I am hopeful we are crossing part of the rebuild where footy becomes about the journey again and not the thumpings week in week out.

I think for the first time this year we’ve got the right balance between needed experience and future state. I’m really excited to see how our younger mids hold up against the Collingwood experience. That centre line must be one of the biggest variances in games ever seen.

But an opportunity tonight for us to take it to our very fancied opponent and really build into the back half of our year.

Jobe to kick 5 in his AFL debut.

Collingwood has to travel so we have a chance.

This is one of the advantages of seeing the footy in Melbourne. 99% of the time you can just quickly book high quality seats at a much, much cheaper price than a WCE home game.

True, I got wing seats for tonight's game when I purchased on Thursday night.

In a half

of the first quarter.

NGL haven't been this disinterested in a WC game in a looong time.
Between us away stinking it up, and the inevitable Nicacos gagathon by the commentary team, it might be a on it the back ground and do something else kinda game.

WC by 35 comm box blown loads

 

[sharps24]

Yeah, that's crazy value for Collingwood

They could pay for many end of seasons trips with a modest outlay here.

 

[southcoast]

Pies travelling in consecutive weeks too - they may run out of legs.

We’re a big chance this game

 

[Farang83150]

No degoey back in the square and no maynard.... We're in.

 

[Mop]

See, these are the games we don't like as fans but as those invested in the young dudes, there is so much to take in.
You see who really wants it, you see who is just miles behind it. You see Daicos v Reid head to head and see where he's really at.

Could and probably should be ugly. You never know though.
Collingwood by 50, it'll be a near repeat of the Geelong game, 3 quarter effort before junktime pain when we're gassed

 

[Cuzz09]

I think every post should have a reminder at the start

remember it's 1 v 18

then rant

 

[MeltMan]

See how I did 1st vs 18th, but the team order is WCE then Pies?
Very clever and smart and good and intentional I thought.

 

[Cuzz09]

I keep seeing WCE were 1 in 18

 

[wce4premiership]

The pies need to be careful here. If they don't show up we could win this.

And I mean if they literally don't show up we could win this. Just.

 

[MeltMan]

Remember back to 2022 when a. Witherdond was tearing it up?
Just gotta believe?

 

[MeltMan]

If we can score 14 goals three we might just do it

I know they’re trying to suck me in, but damn it’s working.

I just punt 5 on these for the fun of it. If it loses I've lost a flat white, but if it wins i can flaunt to my mate about how much of a fiscal genius I am

 

[Matele]

I can’t wait to hear the in depth analysis of Gary Lyon and co after they’ve spent all of 40 minutes watching our team for the first time this year.

 

[Cuzz09]

I mean we are pretty bad anyway but coming off a bye this could be an ugly ugly start

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Checking in on the game day thread and, unfortunately, that’s a free kick to Nick Daicos. Time back on, stand.
