I felt dirty walking alongside some of them on the way to the ground.

I chose not to go tonight. As an AFL member, I’d be sitting in a mixed crowd. Just can’t stomach the scum fans.

How big is their bandwagon? They were invisible during the wooden spoon era of 20 years

A fitting post from a famous pies BF poster re: Carlton:

"Is that right mate.. is that right.. lol mate.. haa hee.. last time Carlton was all the flash mate.... when Alf Stewart was going off like a frog in a sock to Rose Tattoo's greatest hits mate.. on cassette mate.. on cassette mate.. on his Fossey's li-lo mate.. on his Fossey's li-lo mate.. rofl mate.. rofl mate.. that's it mate.. forget about it mate.. forget about it."

Gimpy will be there you’ll know when a faint waft of tonight’s chosen scent tickles your nostrils

Sullivan named sub, Crispy in the middle, Leggy in defence

Twitter getting their knickers in a twist, but…. I don’t hate those moves…..

 

[Kes1984]

Sullivan sub as I had expected.

So true. A co-worker at an un named large corporate company I work at was caught calling SEN last year. I couldn't quite understand what he was saying because he was extremely angry....something along the lines of "Play for the jumper.....the %^^^% jumper..."

After a few wins in a row.... The office rooster was parading up and down the corporate office with his chest 30 seconds infront of his arse.

These my people are the representitives of the filth supporters who pollute our earth.

This game has had a massive build up, feels almost like a final!
I guess it’s because it’s the reigning premier v the team that thinks they should have been

I can't tell you how many times I thought about turning the car around.

Bit difficult on the freeway tho

I feel as nervous before these games as I do before finals.

Going against what we generally do. First time under fly

Fly is annoying me as coach

Doesn't rotate squad and play youth enough

Plays a debutant and names him sub

Feels like Buckley years

The rose coloured glasses are off

 

[swoop42]

Perfect time for Schultz to really announce himself as a Collingwood player and kick 4.

 

[greening22]

Sadly, I’m with you.
I’m super pessimistic about tonight.

And today is the slowest day I can remember!!

I too am not overly optimistic due to our out's in De Goey & Mirchell as well as our recent trend of having particularly poor starts in games. On the flip side, if our small forwards in terms of Jamie Elliot, Bobby Hill, Lachie Schultz & Beau McReery, etc, etc, can contribute 8 or more goals, then I think that we can go a long way to winning. I also think that the role of our 2 rucks in Mason Cox & Darcy Cameron against De Konning & Pittonet will be pivotal in terms of centre bounces & both helping our backs as well as providing targets in our forward line so as to help Mihocek. Finally, tonight will be a good test for both Darcy Moore & Billy Frampton in terms of quality of the 2 opponents they will have to deal with. OK. If they can collectively keep McKay & Curnow to below 5 goals then that would be a great contributing factor to a potential victory. Anyway, what will be, will be! Goodnight & good luck, Pies supporters.

Maybe Harrison to play his VFL role on a wing and release Josh or Sidey to more midfield time ?

 

[MagpieJoel]

Have a s**t feeling about tonight. Hope not.

 

[eyeroller]

All I want is to see the smug looks wiped off the faces of these campaigners. Is that too much to ask for?

Unfortunately not.

You’re overlooking the fact that Fin can only play in the centre square which is the most important part of the ground. It’s an area where we simply can’t have any L-platers or passengers, which is exactly what Fin has been and why he gets subbed/dropped. We’re still in the business of winning games of footy, right?

As I said earlier, if selecting Fin is the single reason for us losing games then we have massive issues

 

[leon123]

Unfortunately not.

lots of beer? nah..... i understand

 

[Soups]

Debuting as a sub is rough. Just play 5 on the bench imo.

 

[Jafo]

They've been here since the Port game. If we win tonight, we should not let them leave.

Then we will make them Australian citizens too
