Round 4 - non-MFC games

[Sylvia Saint]

Dom Tyson has been dropped by North!

Should be a good contest tonight between Collingwood and Bulldogs.
Geelong to go 4-0
Gold Coast to go 3-1!!!!

Good to watch on the neutral games smugly instead of with jealously for a change.

Looking forward to tonight. If the Dogs can dig in early and withstand Collingwood's typical fast start, they'll be a real chance.

Fast starters? If 3 goals in the first quarter is a fast start then ok. Id say they rather work into it than be fast starters besides the GF last year

They're prime time specialists. How often do they blow out games on Friday nights and hold on?

Your post said fast starters. Bulldogs kicked 5 of first 6, carlton kicked the first 3. They belted Adelaide all game then pumped richmond. They won all 4 friday night games. To me they work into the game and other teams have to go with them through the gears but i wouldnt call them fast starters

Would be surprised if the Dogs get up tonight, expecting Collingwood to get it done. The midfield battle should be interesting though.

Tonight is the Travis Cloke Cup.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Then, on the morrow, we have the Stevie J Cup and the Jay Shultz(sp?) Cup.

 

[Jibroni]

As long as Brizzy win that's all that matter to me.

 

[Bluelegs]

This segment where the coaches are forced to drive Rompingwins to the ground and make awkward chit-chat is the worst idea channel 7 have had since the megawall.

 

[El Gringo]

This is not the worst quarter ever played, this is just a tribute.

 

[Bluelegs]

Skills not bad in this game but both teams playing super conservatively.

 

[MarcMaverick]

First half is over mercifully.

 

[Proper Gander]

If any of you haven’t made the discovery, following this game in tandem with the game day thread on the pies board is gold. Not happy over there. They’ve sacked Buckley twice along with half the team

It is with a great sadness I see the Pies are about to win, their board would have been golden tonight if they lost.

Remember when Seedsman did his ACL?

But that one never looked like an ACL did it? Looked like a huge hyperextension on impact, where ACLs are more of a lateral movement type deal. There's always danger in commentators trying to break ACL news before its official, as with Seed, but this one looked pretty cut and dried. Particularly with the way he planted his foot and then grabbing his knee whilst being tackled.

Thats shocking for the Giants, they've had a horrible injury run over the last couple of years.

Yeah it's probably 90% but I remember Riewoldt doing his ACL against us round 1 2017 and then he was fine. Crying aswell.

Gee, lions looking ordinary today.

GWS played that last kickout so much better than us last year.
