Eyre was concussed. Took a big hit against a Frankston player, free not paid like with Noble.
 
yeah, typical down in frankston
He did have a bloody eye even at the end of the game.

Poor kid.
Yup. Tough game out there.

Genuinely, only time Collingwood will deal with a hostile crowd. Players hate it. Fans were very opinionated. Have a friend who worked on the bench for us. Literally a teenager and abused the whole match by the fans.

Yeah, same thing happened last year. A few of our players got roughed up at the time. Ginni more in particular. Its a bloody tough environment to go into. The locals are ferals and the players are dirty. If you survive it without an incident, you're lucky.

Can the boys hold the fort long enough for the cavalry to rescue our season?

I mean there's not a lot coming back

Mcstay is coming back off an 11 month ACL and won't be amazing.

Elliot is pretty old and banged up now

Mcreery is arguably not even best 22 right now

Mitchell and Cox have had questions over their spot in the best 22

Noble has been up and down

You must struggle to get yourself to games.

Not a beacon of positivity are you kappa
 
Depends how you look at it. Glass half full or half empty.

Mcstay will be great, as will Elliot. Mitchell was carrying an injury, and a fit Mitchell is an upgrade on anyone we’ve been playing. Cox I prob agree with on his form.

Mcstay has only ever been a role playing KPF, but now coming off an ACL he'll be great?

There's no glass, there's only reality

We are desperately crying out for a role-playing KPF, though. In his absence we've had to run Johnson, Reef, Frampton and Howe through there, all of whom are undersized, no good, or undersized and no good. (Other than Howe, who is needed back behind the ball).

That's the case with most of the outs. Are they gonna come in and play like Nick Daicos? No. But all of McStay, Elliott, Mitchell, Cox, Noble and McCreery play roles and provide structure. And those sorts of competent role players mean that we won't have to put games into guys who aren't (yet) AFL level calibre, like Bytel, Macrae, Parker, Allan, Jiath, Johnson, and to a lesser extent Dean and Sullivan (who are closer to AFL standard, but not at the level of those who they replaced).

That being said, it's all moot unless we can rectify the lack-of-intensity issue which has plagued us the last three weeks.

Ok kappa. He was playing well for us, averaging 2 a game and won us the prelim.

But perhaps you are right, why be positive. Seasons over, all the returning players are crap. Time to do some more snapper fishing which suits me!
