he runs along the wing and beats a player who is past his prime and we all go gaga?? c'mon.
tooves can't KICK the ball!!
over-committed to a contest a few times last nite, allowing the bulldog player to run and play on.
and he went for a punch in the 1st quarter, completely missed, and his...
The thing is, our backline is starting to become very settled and look quite solid.
Maxwell Presti O'brien
Clarke Brown Heath
Players such as Goldy, Reid, Cox, are hopefully gonna be able to do somethin to fit in. I can see the following occuring:
1. Presti retiring
2. Clarke & Heath...
A team of 9 men can win a premiership?!?!?!?! :p Haha jokes.
But you have definately left out some SERIOUS names, probably the most notable - Travis CLOKE!!!:thumbsu:
L.Brown has been so shit, but tonite, ABSOLUTELY GUNNED IT!!! Well done son.
Me and my mate have always been Dick's biggest fans ever since his debut against richmond in 2007. His attitude to the game is the best:D
I love Shazza. I love Shazza.
Cox has got incredibe flair!! He side-steps...
Good Call Bad Call
Ok, first up: "Collingwood have made the right decision in dropping Cook and Goldsack for their next match"
That's a good call. Cook has had two ordinary weeks in a row and has been rightly sent back to the two's. And while Goldsack did play the majority of the West Coast...
I think every1 has been too quick to rite-off the bear.
It would be great to see him play a couple of games purely in the forward line. Give him a chance!!
Also, it may be worth noting that he hasn't even racked up 50games of footy yet.
If he came into the side and kicked 2-3 goals every...
DNine, i feel ur frustration.
Leigh Brown has been very poor. But the fact that he gets a gig in the ruck is simply ludicrous. I don't think i've ever seen him TOUCH the ball at a centre bounce!
However he did have a chance to make a name for himself as a forward option on a couple of...
I went to the game last nite.
It was a very enjoyable game.
I saw guns like lockyer, swan, leon tear North to shreads.
I saw young kids like wellingham and jack show that they have what it takes to take us to the next level.
I saw our captain return and provide us with leadership and grunt all...
I have seen this list develop and i honestly believe we are genuine contenders for a flag within 2yrs.
But when i see our guns 'carrying passengers' (Toovey) it frustrates the hell out of me. He is offering us NOTHING and MM is really losing me.
We really do have alot of young talent...
I have always loved collingwood since the day i was born. I haven't missed a game in Victoria for 3yrs now.
But after seeing Toovey named in the starting 22 for tonite's game, i am actually considering whether i really want to go.
He played so bad on Anzac day. I know he isn't the most...
that last goal he kicked against geelong is my favourite memory of his unbelievable skill. me and my mate were in the stand right behind him and we just went ballistic celebrating:D
i'm REALLY liking the looks of our team now. are we a chance, or will geelong prove they are the dominant team in the afl for 2009???
i know we flogged them last year,, but that will meen nothing come tomoro nite.
my tip: pies by 8pts!!! jack to kick a bag, while leon picks up B.O.G:thumbsu:
i like the quote that tooves make johno look like lindsay gilbee. its so true.
toovs is a deadset spud. the quicker he gets delisted the better. and talk about his tagging, its all bullshit!! people, people, stop kidding urselves. u r lying to urselves. i remember when he went to AAMI and...
BJ has had a very good pre-season and we must give him a couple of games to prove he can get back to the awesome form of '06. And it was good to see him stick his head over the ball on the weekend.
But what about Tooves. I'm not havin a crack at him, because its not his fault he is being...
Rusling a dead-eye-dick?... wouldn't that be fantastic if he could work his way back into the side and start kicking some bags :D
Can't wait for Heath to return. Do you think it will be this week??
Jack is soooooooooooooooo good in front of goal. Definately one of the best set shots at our club. You would be a fool to play him anywhere outside the forward line. He is a natural goal-kicker, something we want and need..
i'd like to feel confident, but we must remind ourselves that it is only a pre-season game. anything could happen.
they did beat us quite comprehensively later in the season last year.
but if we use our skills and play our natural game, it should be a comfortable win..
Thats a pretty awesome side looking at those names.
The contest between bryan and wood is a tuff one.
I think we probably have better players than cook to choose from (ala Wellingham, Jmac, Beams, etc)
And you're right about Goldsack. Players like Reid and Cox are putting some serious pressure...
