centrebet odds at present

I am really looking forward to this game. We have played very well against the eagles (and in interstate) over the last few years.

Rumour is that Judd and Cox will be out injured!

For some reason I am quitely confident. With those odds Might even put a tenner on the pies for a win!

Didak Bryan Nicholls Toovey Iles & D1ck added to the 22

And who are you going to take out,Mr Malthouse?

Which 6 are you going to replace the above guys with????

ahah tu shae rusty g.

going on some of firestorms other post im gonna say he'd like to take out, licca, obree, wakelin, lonie/r shaw, davis, richards perhaps.....just a guess anyway

But in my opinion all though players warrant a 2nd chance(or in the case of a couple of them dont need a 2nd chance at all as they did their job) as last week was only rnd 1 not rnd 10, and most of them are experienced players...i think there will be a maximum of 1 change but could be wrong.

You say B.F.G is back pedalling fast when the chalenge is upon them.

They have been ADDED to the 22, they are not replacing anyone yet, there may be no change at all... jeez it's like I'm talking to the smartest guy in the Carlton cheer squad

I'm sure they were nearly all considered for the first 22,Firestorm.
All I asked was,Who would you replace to fit these guys into the 22?
Pretty simple question.

I know what your saying but perhaps it would be easier to understand if you used the word 'squad' instead of 22.

No one is being replaced. They have been added to the "squad". The squad contains 28 players. This probably has to be refined to 25 players by tomorrow night and then 22 by Friday night.

You'd have to be a bloody Collingwood fan to think we've even got a prayer. As a Collingwood fan, I expect us to play waay better than most people would expect.

Eagles are coming of a sharp emotional low-high, Judd is iffy, Cox is iffy, Cuz probably won't play! We beat 'em last year, we can play a lot better tahn everyone remembers, and our last quarter last week would've stuffed most teams.

All that being said....naaaah! But we'll get closer than expected.

Our last quarter last week, exactly, what went wrong before that?

We were lucky that we played a side who don't know how to finish off games. If West Coast would have been our opponents, I dare say we would not have been in that same position where we came from behind and hit the front with a few mintues left on the clock. In saying that, we fought tooth and nail, it was a good win in that regard.

The odds are unanimiously against us this week, but as long as we're out there we are a fighting chance.

Are they on crazy pills or what? I guess they might be trying to attract a few mug punters but surely more like 3.00 given Eagles 'injury' problems, both real and self inflicted. Is that for a straight result? Margin?

My heart says YES but my footy tipping say No.

And in the eyes of the footballing world this game is a no win situation for us anyway. If we do get over the line, everyone will say it's because they missed Ben, Cox, Judd (if the rumours are true about his corky) and anyone else that maybe not play. We will not get any sort of credit.
If we lose, everyone will just say we're a bottom side and outclassed no matter the score line.

I know what you're saying but it is not a no-win situation........its 4 points we are after, not bragging rights to your mates at work! Who cares what excuse Joe Bloggs has for us if we won.

My advice to those putting a bet on the Pies would be not to worry too much about who is not/may not be playing......but who is playing for the Weagles.

Still a tonne of class and experience will be taking the field in Kerr, Embley, Wirrpunda, Hunter, Rosa, Stenglein, Glass, Selwood and Q.And how hard at the footy is Beau Waters? Geez I would love to see him in black and white stripes.

If thats true thats almost too good to pass up. The last time I saw odds that good was Pies vs Port in the 2002 finals. Won $50 on that game, even though I have a "no betting on the footy" rule.

Anything better than 5-1 in a two horse race is worth a thought.
