Eagles will have 8 senior players back so will be stronger. MM will get a great cheer on his first visit back to play Eagles.
Hard one to pick depending upon.
1) Will the youngsters rise again as per last weeks first half
2) The seniors back include sierakowski, Taylor, Prior, Merenda. They will want to impress but how will they fit in.
3) Judgeys plan!

But the Eagles will have Gardy back and having a ruckman is an important step up from last week. Also Phil Matera will be back.

So, It should be an Eagles win followed by a Saints win in Melbun

Collingwood will win on all counts.

Last Friday showed us many qualities in the pies game. Hard at the footy, strong marking leading forwards, a tight checking tall defence with some extremely hard running pacey midfielders. When our game plan clicked, we had some of the fastest movement of a football I have ever seen.

But what set Collingwood apart the other night was the coaching of Mick Malthouse. His rotational game plan was head spinningly brilliant to watch. Sure it's a praccy match and you're gonna experiment with players in different positions. But I don't think that this was the case. Malthouse appears to have taken the movement of players around the ground to a new level.

You could sense that the players all knew where they were supposed to be and what they were supposed do in that position. I was at a loss to describe a position of any player at any given time!

I reckon Mickey might break against his reluctance to debut players interstate and throw Didak into the fray. I think he will lift to AFL standard immediately. Goes to show that we have plenty of depth now, which is something that West Coast certainly don't have. Geriatric seniors remain that should have been discarded years ago! Bottom three this year.

Collingwood too fast all aroud the ground. 45 points.

Are these guys "senior" players Frodo ? Good luck, I think you are going to get whipped.

On the news tonight they were saying Tarrant is out for the Pies. With Licuria also gone for this week, I think the pies will struggle on the road.

The Eagles will come back with a big win, looking forward to Troy Wilson bustling through the packs again!

I reckon were going to get up in this match.
I also reckon with a good injury run this year, were an outside chance for the finals, despite what a lot of people are saying.

Alf, what a kind response! Both clubs have had some wonderful games in the past and all we can hope is the real winner will be the fans

The Woodsmen by well since the Tarrantula is attending his sisters wedding and not playing, I'll predict a close game and say one-hundred twenty points.
