From 2010 onwards, Josh Fraser's career as a full-time ruckman has to be considered finished. I'd doubt very much whether we'll trade him and assuming we don't, I'll be very interested to see what we do with him. Full time full-forward, forward flank, wingman.....
Plonk him at full-forward for...
You guys are nothing but an angry mob.
Grab the torches and pitchforks guys, let's go burn something down.
Shattering loss I agree but let's just settle down and take a big deep breath.
Hey guys, congrats on the win last night. One quick question, any antipodeans get a Justin TV stream last night? I'm asking as I'm in Canada ATM and with the HUN coverage of this issue, I want to know what to expect come Sunday.Thanks
In today's society of high speed internet on the World Wide Web, the International coverage of AFL games is an absolute disgrace. I've been living away from Australia for 2 years now- I tried life as a paid up member of Aussiesport TV (the ONLY legal way for antipodeans to view AFL) and found...
I would have been in agreeance with this statement however I did see an interesting stat on the collingwood website this week-
Dayne Beams
In his 13th game for the club since arriving via the 29th overall pick in the 2008 draft, Dayne Beams racked up 20 possessions in only 62% game time. The...
I know who he is- from memory he was sponsoring Richmond in some fashion as well as having dealings with Melbourne. I've got a vague recollection (though this was about 6 years ago) he was not Eddie's number one fan hence the reason his money was going elsewhere
It's not about insight, it's about philosophy- for example, Jeff Kennet comes out and says the Hawk want to win two premierships and get 50 000 members in the next 5 years and everyone went 'yeah right, as if'. Now however that prospect looks formidably realistic. Is this a false premonition...
PERFECT PIES SEND TREMOURS THROUGH THE COMPETITION
Round 18 kicked off last night and the Collingwood Football Club again showed that they remain the dominant force in the competition when they defeated Carlton by 108 points at the MCG. The Magpies only loss this year had come at the hands of...
hotpies
B Goldsack N Brown Maxwell
HB O'Brien Reid Pendlebury
C Thomas Swann Davis
HF McCaffer Cloke Didak
F Anthony Dawes Sidebottom
R Fraser, Shaw, Clarke
I Wood, McCarthy, Rocca, Beams
I can safely say that...
Double standards from the Herald Sun for sure. BUT the scrutiny will increase if the unnamed player turns out to be Buddy Franklin.... Who wants to lay bets? Pure innuendo but that's where my money is!
Anybody that wants to have a go at the board or the executives should go back 10 years and see what sort of state Collingwood was in. I'm eternally grateful to Eddie and his friends for where they've taken the club and believe all supporter's of this great alliance should be eternally grateful...
I think you have made a number of valid points there PieLebo but I do have one major difference of opinion. Leon Davis, Dane Swan, Nick Maxwell Alan Didak and co are at or near the peak of their powers and their scope for improvement is nowhere near that of the younger brigade. If we are to...
Collingwood's club website reported that Clarke, whom the club hopes to play more regularly in the midfield, clocked 6:05, while Pendlebury was timed at 6:10.
Sounds like the club might be foxing their numbers there. Have a look at the time difference from when Marty Clarke crosses the line...
I can understand all of those and that is probably more like what the actual side will look like. One major problem I do have is no Anthony, even for the ultra conservative, you have to find a spot....
I think one of Lockyer, O'Bree, Johnson will be looking at seconds footy. At least one of our...
Point taken but what makes you think he can't play down back? Anthony was drafted as a back but did pretty damn well playing forward in his first 11 games of senior footy. Strange how these things work.
Great teams have great KPBs.
He also played there in the last game in VFL 2008, a sign of...
Tough, uncompromising, know how, football intelligence, mongrel, looks untidy but incredibly effective.... and of course 4 letters in first and last name.
Ben Reid.
We have a plethora of key forwards-
Cloke, Rocca, Rusling, Dawes, Anthony
And a severe lack of quality backs. The wraps within the club for Ben Reid are rather massive and CHB might allow him a positve pathway to fullfilling his potential. Throw Presti in the mix, forget Carroll and...
Hate to burst your perfect little bubble but I've seen the photo's and he is the only player that doesn't actually look ripped. I'm sure he's in for a big year but toned and ripped? I don't think so
