He really is isn't he. I never thought he would improve like this. Has a better head on his shoulders than i thought he did. Couple of big 1 on 1 wins tonight.
Don't dislike him in the side at all.

I'm so confident when Cottrell is in a contest.
He wins a lot and is a good contested mark. But even if he loses, he will pressure the fk out of them to force a panicked disposal.

Has improved a lot over the last month. Quickly learnt that he is no good when wrestling his opponent and has since adjusted his positioning. Using his height to his advantage more and more.
Looking like a steal.

Back at headquarters against the Pies.Hooray!
Tough win today, proud of the boys hanging on. I’m still trying to get home and I live in east Brighton. God I hate that stadium! The win makes it worthwhile

I think give Cerra a 3 week spell over the bye, let Dow come in and show us how much better he is under Voss. After the bye, we're getting into the business end of the season and we need to keep our guns fresh for the finals.
Sorryfor doubting you, loving him hard atm!

I'm in the same boat. Showing the form we all hoped he could reach but I had basically given up. Good on him, hopefully can keep it upSorry

Make no mistake we are not a mediocre push over team anymore.
We have the big bodies that hurt opposition where it counts in the guts and they smash and crash teams into submission.
Another great win by a team that is still really only just learning how to win and they do let teams back in but thankfully have done enough hard work to have a decent unassailable lead.
The overall improvement by this group is great at the moment they are starting to build a culture of team first which leads to winning and if they keep growing as a group the potential for success is almost certain if we can keep our core group on the park.
Weitering,Walsh,Hewett,Curnow,Kennedy,Saad,Docherty,JSOS,Newman were great tonight but Cottrell,LOB,TDK,Young,Durdin,Motlop,Carroll made me so happy with their efforts and the improvement they bring makes this team very hard to beat.
Well done to them all hope they can keep this winning form up, But geez they love testing the old ticker and then make it pump with pride knowing they all are having a hard crack and playing,sticking up and celebrating for each other in every game.
Now please go out there next weekend and blow the Filth away by 70 points to up our percentage.
GO BLUES!

Good call. We're going to need to make the call on Dow before he looks for opportunities elsewhere (and fair enough too)

Cerra went with Heeney when he played in the midfield and kept him in line.

Time to sell out the G against the filth next week. Remind the AFL why Carlton vs Collingwood is the biggest game in town!
Feeling pretty damn groovy gang.
Sliced & diced ‘em for a half, took 45 minutes of Foreman body shots, then them knocked out with 2 quick body shots.
TDK’s pack marks in the last, Supreme.
A mighty win.

Not to mention De Koning's effort off the 5 day break. He hung tough against GWS, probably broke even on the day, but Preuss really worked him over physically, around the ground, and he would have woken up sore on Monday morning.
To then come out on the Friday night and play a blinder against a proper ruck-pairing, he's obviously an incredible athlete, but his body and his preparation must be spot-on as well. He seems to be thriving on the extra minutes as first ruck.

I would like to think that he is happy being on the second string for our midfield. He knows that the guys ahead of him in the seniors are stars and when he gets his chance, he will take it.

Another week, another jj1978 comment shitting on LOB... after he plays back to back objectively good games.
Like sands through the hour glass.

Nailed Heeney in a couple of big tackles in the middle. Did his job I reckon. But, as I've said... we can afford to rest him and bring in Dow for the couple of games surrounding the bye. After the bye, we need to be rotating the midfield a bit more to keep them fresh for the finals.
