Mate, i'm not gonna go back and re-watch the game to prove my point. Which is what i would have to do as my memory doesn't serve me that well. I also cant tell you who scored every goal or what disposal efficiency each player ran at or who spoiled every high ball coming in to our D50. Ill...

when it mattered, he faltered continuously. regardless of what some stat sheet says. which as we all know only tell part of a story

bianco an absolute liabailty. even when he had time and space he looked rushed and just hacked it. no composure carmichael to come in

Ginny is on the verge of being rested. He isn;t hitting the score board. That's okay kind of if you are putting on forward pressure (he isn't) making your tackles stick ( he isn't) and putting relentless pressure on rebounding defenders ( he isn't) or being a link up player ( field kicking poor)...

Degoey does so many taxing efforts inside the contest, simply getting hands on the ball first before oppo and causing another stoppage to allow the rest of the team to set up in front or behind the ball. he gets no stats for this. but it is crucial.

ive told this story before, T The week of training leading up to our last game against Brisbane at Vic park my family and i drove from adelaide to melbourne to watch training and go to the games etc. After all the lights had gone out and most people had left on one of the training nights my...

I would love choco williams to get a chance at it. I think he has the strong personality to put up with the collingwood admin and supporters. Also think he is a great coach and would be do great things if given an opportunity. Rumoured to be hard to get along with but that doesnt faze me if he...

why not any of these guernseys that pre-date the prison bars

and what basis is that a legitmate argument? you could counter with well steven milne never moved from the forward line and that worked for him. means nothing. case by case basis is the only way. also I didn't say he couldn't get the ball as a midfielder, just when he does its usually in...

deep forward or high half forward. is a liability through the midfield/wing. gets caught out of position and makes bad by choices by foot to the next target. keep him forward , he is an absolute asset up there where he can strut his stuff and use speed to burn defenders. not everyone needs to...

I dedicated myself to trying to make AFL when I was younger. trained/dieted could play both sides of my body , won b and F's etc etc Got as far as playing Sanfl and made the under 18 SA state squad ( team mates including jared petrenko, Bryce gibbs, james sellar, ben mason and others) Never...

he is not a great ruckman in a sense that he often burns his midfielders but playing the ball to close to the contest so he can mop up "and be the extra midfielder" rather than just palming it off to a dedicated midfielder with more speed and skill. quite frustrating to watch.

gambling issues or not, has been playing terribly. happy to see sier back in the team

technically you cant stream from your app to your tv BUT that being said, I live in Adelaide and managed to chromecast every game not on free to air by basically chromecasting my homescreen of my phone to my tv and then logging into the afl app. sometimes it took a few goes to get it but it does...

scotty crowe. loved him as a child and wrote letters back and forth for years talking all things footy.

I ran into paul seedsman the other day here in Adelaide while doing some work at his house. seem's very happy here and is currently renovating a joint. no chance of leaving.

Selwood had a better career than everyone ( fortunate team to be apart of) could of easily been one of the others if roles reversed BUT they weren't. danger absolute best is the best of the lot. pendles overall fits inbetween the two mentioned above, great player and very good career...

team on the rise from previous years performances loses a match against a quality top 4 opposition when severely depleted. to suggest we are pretenders is not right. we are simply a team that is building and I assume most pies supporters are happy with our trajectory over the course of this...

loved shawry when he played for us but he thought his shit didn't stink towards the end and behaved like a child, and wouldn't curb his behaviour bucks was probably too strong at the time getting rid of any trouble makers in his view but at the same time shawry deserved his wack. cant have...

yeh I am. its significantly harder to pass well on your opposite foot in general field play then shooting for goal.

I like degoey and he is probably my favourite player on our list ON POTENTIAL. but if this is the price he is being offered, he would be stupid not to take it and Collingwood would be stupid to match it! 1 million a year is Patrick Dangerfield/nat fyfe/buddy frankling/gary ablett/ dane swan/...

please. carlton went into damage control before the game even started. playing ultra defensive with no mindset of winning. only to limit the scoreline of a an eventual loss. you did it well but it never felt like you were going to win. if the game was played as it should be and not just...

id walk away from afl if it was introduced

anyone who has ever watched under 8's play football will know how frustrating zones are to watch especially when a kid does a fantastic mark or kick or similar but is pinged for over stepping the "zone" by a metre.

not a big enough sample size but josh diacos has done some very natural looking left foot passes in the last couple games. can only assume it is something peter made him learn.

never rated hird either. found him to be overrated and a guy who spent a lot of time forward of centre cherry picking. also agree on his kicking being sub-par. had a high ball drop which went to shit sometimes.

Played at south Adelaide with griff before he got drafted. Always a gentleman and a very good football player. lucky he grew 2 feet in what seemed like 6 months prior to being drafted. well done on 250!

and the other not so staggering story was me trying to get a signature of paul Williams after an Adelaide game also but I couldn't get thru the crowd of other Collingwood supporters to be noticed but his gf/wife at the time spotted me and he pushed everyone aside to sign my jumper

absolutely not. it was the best feeling and obviously a moment i've cherished in life. also have 2 other stories about going to see games as a kid in Adelaide. we played the crows and after the game u could go hangout the side of the changerooms and hope to get a signature from players as...

ive wrote this before on here but.. when I was a kid my family drove over to Melbourne for Collingwood's last game. we went for the whole week and went to the training sessions during the week. I was probably 10ish years old an my brother and I stuck around long after training had finished and...
