Game Day Round 6: ANZAC Day - Collingwood v Essendon - MCG, Tuesday April 25, 3.20pm AEST

That may be so but I think Grizz's point is valid. He's just not quite at the level yet in this high pressure situation

I thought he started well but it was fleeting.

Perkins off Hobbs on, tbc

 

[Vander18]

Game is ebbing and flowing….it’s an even contest. Both teams having short bursts where they get momentum.

Wouldn’t mind seeing Hobbs sooner than later….Alwyn to sub off.

Kudos to Weideman - he has repaid Scott’s faith in him so far.

Stringer and our rucks are the wildcards. Of one or the other (both would be great) can off the chain we have a good chance.

 

[DapperDon]

Wasn't this supposed to be a key/easy win for us?
Frampton killing Draper and Phillips

It's classic players falling for media hype thinking they just need to show up and they'll win all the taps.

Hopefully they get a reality check in the rooms from Brad and pull their fingers out

 

[ghostdog]

Frampton killing Draper and Phillips

Yep. We underestimate Frampton at our peril.

 

[Knighta21]

Get ready to be reamed by the umps in the second half as they even up free kicks

 

[ghostdog]

Wait, Perkins?

 

[Hamez]

Need parish to get his hands on it in the second half

 

[Call Me Cake]

Have to be smarter with the ball going forward someone needs to decoy moore

Moore is having way too much freedom. Annoying.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Perkins off Hobbs on, tbc

thought he was coaching rucks? we have 2 on already.

 

[fishardansin]

Considering the "rucks" Collingwood have available, this is unacceptable:



Overall, I"m positive about today, but that is crap.

 

[dank420_]

Perkins injured

 

[Ati Tude]

Stringer out there? 2-3 touches only.

Delivery has not made it easy for him. Or any other forward.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Heppell gone back to passenger mode too.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Concerning? Disposals are low for us.
We're clogging up the middle of the ground, and it's been working, as they're handpassing around so much.

 

[Koopa]

Really need to clean up our forward fifty kicking and try to negate Moore, make him more accountable as he's having a field day with our entries atm. Losing a bit of composure across the board in that area, but overall hopefully we can keep up. Phillips needs to switch on, more like last week please!

 

[MightyDon]

Menzi needs a rest in the twos, mid field needs to HTFU

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Heppell gone back to passenger mode too.

Our future captain is coming on to get 18 disposals and 7 tackles in a half.

 

[Lore]

What actually happened to Perkins?

Our future captain is coming on to get 18 disposals and 7 tackles in a half.

how many inside 50s and are they shallow

 

[eth-dog]

The rucks need to forget about goals. Tell them to sit on Moore and not let him do whatever he likes.

Also getting dominated by Billy ****ing Frampton is embarrassing.

 

[scythe]

Too many Truckball-style transitions going unchecked. Need to clean it up if we're a hope.

 

[DapperDon]

 

[sameolds33]

Pressure dropped right off. They arent shitting themselves under pressure.

think that happened when Langford went forward and Parish went back. missing Zach

 

[jmoo wan]

What actually happened to Perkins?

i’m hearing he’s injured
