Right, thanks. Had never heard that before so guessing it is new for this season. Also assume that means all 23 are able to interchange from the start of the game not just 22, especially given the need for another ruck/tall to help out Green and a thin key forwards rotation.

So no Leidler, and not on the injury list either. The reserves mysteries continue.

Yes, the only AFL listed player not accounted for. Presumably a later in the week injury, or sick?

That 23rd has been a rule for a few years

 

[Mister B]

Was going to head out there but looking at that squad think I’ll save myself the two hour round trip. Especially if I’m going to have to put up with a bunch of campaigners bragging about how good their team was last night when they were handed the game on a platter.

 

[joeykanga]

Excited to see how Bowman goes

 

[kangle4]

Nice contested mark from Edwards in defence.

 

[Bloods86]

Vision by Edwards there, despite not quite working out

[GoodesStuff]

Cleary looking good early

 

[Bloods86]

Senior team could learn from that well worked entry

 

[Bloods86]

Cleary looking good early

Disposal a bit iffy at times, but he, Francis and Edwards doing well

 

[Swansujelly]

good to see the Mayor of Collingwood in attendance lol

 

[Bloods86]

We're looking alright, just need to improve going into 50 and finish chances

 

[Mister B]

Well it's clear we have a defined style of play this year, a clear step up from our time under that previous knob that was in charge. The reserves side is a strong reflection of the senior side. A backline performing above expectations despite being peppered and a forward line of players that can't kick straight or over a distance of 35 metres.

 

[caesar88]

Frustrating quarter. Felt sooo even between the two teams, just one were able to put it on the scoreboard and the other was not.

Cleary, Francis & Edwards have all been awesome.

 

[Bloods86]

Best Francis, Edwards, Cleary so far (and Shipley). The backs mopping up most entries.

Buller presenting and competing well.

Green dropped a sitter, but had a bit of confidence to take his opponent on at one point (some might say madness but he got away with it).

Paton a few good involvements, thought the free in the middle after a spoil was harsh, but hard to judge.

Just need to hit targets inside 50 and in better spots.

 

[Bloods86]

Ugh. Hopefully not an otherwise competitive game that turns into a slow mauling on the scoreboard.

 

[caesar88]

FINALLY

 

[Mister B]

and we're off and running. Well done Buller.

 

[caesar88]

Max Geddes is my favourite of all the non-listed players. Always has a crack

 

[Mister B]

Buller starting to cause some problems.

 

[Bloods86]

and we're off and running. Well done Buller.

Reckon he wanted the ball to come back even with the advantage goal

Trying to watch it on my phone is maddening. Can't see anything properly.

I've got it on a 50" TV and when it gets to the outer side, it's still hard/impossible to know where the line is.

There was a french bulldog in the background over there though, maybe we could sub it on to help with ground balls inside 50.
