Prediction Tall timber down back a massive worry.

He got smashed one on one.

As I said, which of our defenders didnt?

Wasn't that one of the specific games where we played hardcore Swiss cheese zone defence. Like the saints game where they just waltzed forward and hit up copious loose players in our back 50 all game?

Well Buckley lost complete faith in him as a defender after that so I guess that excuse doesn't wash.

Of course he did, that's why he was used occasionally in defense at VFL level after that game.

You've got a squad of 44-47 players and a team that discounts possibilities isn't doing the best it can.

So he got dropped to the VFL and started playing predominately forward and then made a come back to the seniors as a forward. Makes sense.

I did because I can't remember the last time he played a decent game in defence.

Are you for real? He was really good in the second half of the year. Was extremely stiff to get dropped for Marsh then came back and played really well.

When White played his first defensive game in the seniors it was so bad it was laughable and I'm fairly sure he was dropped the following week back to the reserves. From what I've seen he's only going to get a game as a forward cum ruck. Defensively a huge liability we can't afford.

See this is why you're a joke and have a vendetta with the club, we had poor day out but White showed a lot of promise that day and was just about our only decent player

You should should be permanently banned.

Not true.
After being dropped, he actually played mainly defence in the vfl. Won his spot back in the seniors by performing in defence. Then strangely, when picked was played up forward. Did well and thus held his spot in the forward line.

TG, you really should just stay with your usual "hit and run" tactic, because when you stick around and try and argue about football with people that have some sort of a clue, you invariably get exposed as someone that doesn't have a clue at all!

Last time Goldsack beat his direct opponent playing in defence? GO

Round 21 this year, against the eventual premiers?

Not sure who he was playing on, but he was immense in that game, and I don't think he was just floating around loose.

If the question is "Name a Collingwood player THATSGOLD will bag without any evidence or fact checking to back it up?" then Yes.

Mate our backline is woeful and has been for a while. Take Reid away it's a basically a bottom 2-3 backline in the comp. We've been building this new look team for 5 years and it's gone from average to poor. It won't stand up in finals if we even make them.

The same Reid that you wanted to trade/delist when he couldn't get on the park.

Actually he is part of the answer. A fully fit Goldsack would have played every game over the past few years and been amongst our most important players. People underestimate how important he is to our structures. His versatility and ability to play big and small has been sorely missed.

And you were adamant we should get rid of Reid. Your posting history at times is laughable.

I'm pretty bullish about our backline.

A couple of excellent intercept players - Reid and Howe
Surplus midfielders enabling us to rotate a quality mid or two through there to give us run.
Competent experienced role players: Dunn, Goldsack, Sinclair
Promising youngsters: Maynard, Ramsay, Shaz, Langdon

And none of them are butchers of the footy.

Cross our fingers regarding injuries and I think they'll go well.
