V Freo @ Subiaco

[Coin_Toss]

Can I ask you guys what you really think of this:

Travis Cloke, Cameron Cloke, Jason Cloke

Cmon, seriously now???

What about the Clokes?

Jason is heavily underrated. Travis will be a very good footballer. Cameron brings good service.

I love Travis...the other two...slow logs

Give them time. Big blokes develop slower.

wow - actual non judgmental attitude on the clokes from an opposition supporter.

If people saw J Cloke run around against st kilda they would not say slow

cam is 20 fer christs sake

T Cloke will be very good

looking forward to the weekends game - will be a good test of where we're at- freo were super impressive on the weekend

It seems this thread has moved on but why the heck would you play a game at a neutral venue much less a pre season game? It’s just a nonsensical notion.

 

[stylor]

Thats what happens when you are the most sought after club in the afl. Clubs wanna play us to boost their takings

Yeah I'm sure everyone will be coming to Subiaco on sunday to see the Pies! Right! Just because Eddie has an over inflated ego doesn't mean Pies supporters need to!

I'm sick of this whinging about the fixtures.
Sure we do get an advantage in that we don't travel that much at all.
However non-Victorian clubs have an home ground for at least 10 games. Collingwood have effectively around 5 home ground advantage games (games vs. non Vic teams @ MCG/TD).
And as egotistical as it sounds a home game against Collingwood is always high up on the fixturing wish-list of every other club.

Maybe over in Vic clubs want home games against the Pies but I don't think they're that many Collingwood supporters over here in the west so not sure it matters too much to us! Other than the spankings they let us dish out to them over here!

I've gotta admit though, the few Pies supporters over here the last time we played you were very friendly and passionate about their club! Should be a good match!

 

[Jabso]

No matter how many Pies supporters there are in WA (there are a lot anyway) Collingwood games, even interstate, sell very well. Have a look at the crowds of the last handfull of games vs. Collingwood.

Re:Clokes

Not only did each of the boys look great last week (Jason B.O.G), but they seem to all just step up a huge notch when all 3 are out there. Heavier protection for each other. We witnessed it in several games last year, where one of the clokes would come protect the other (usually Jason, because he is the tough nut). It is great to see.

Yeah, all interstate games are looked forward to when the pies play, considering it is the blockbuster game of the year in that state despite derby's and showdowns.

If we lose like this again on Sunday i will disect my left NUT!!!! It wont happen again, look Fremantle are nothing special there is no reason why we cant go over there make a real contest out of it and win the game. I would like to go a fare as possible in the NAB cup, it would be great for the morale and club membership if we could steal the cup. The Blues did it last season, i cant see why we cant pull it off...

Fremantle are a great dissapointment so fare, the media keep going on about how talented they are, there is a huge difference between having talent on paper and actually making finals...

Outlandish Statement #1:
Maxwell Murder (Rancid anyone?) will beat Pavlich.

Pot, Kettle, Black

 

[dids4]

Pot, Kettle, Black

we've made two grand finals in the past four seasons.

make more than one FINALS SERIES, then come back.

 

[Lonie_from_50]

yeah, good call dids...

 

[Johnson#26]

Looking forward to this one. Another test of where we are at. Granted we won't have our best side in, but it will still be nice to see where some of thr youngsters (Iles/O'Brien/Anthony) are at at this stage of their development.

I don't think Anthony would get a run, especially when he played for Williamstown yesterday.

 

[Johnson#26]

Ah yes, true. I thought he'd been named in the squad, though.

 

[Lonie_from_50]

yeah, lol

 

[carntheroos4eva]

Freo will most likely thump the old and slow magpies out of subiaco by over 100 points.

 

[guess_who]

To the fog head Freo supporter, If you don't like our ego's or any thing we post etc. Why come to the Collingwood board.

(Not quite sure if it's directed at me)

I guess it would be the same reason we get Cassius_Clay and others on the Freo board. Either way it's behind us and good luck this arvo

Thats what happens when you are the most sought after club in the afl. Clubs wanna play us to boost their takings

Clubs wanna play you to boost their percentage

 

[Kurtis G]

Lonie - Gun
Fraser - Gun
Davis - Gun
Tarrant - Gun

(all were good on Sunday)

Collingwood are a real show for the eight this season, for sure. (IMO)
