Game Day AFL Round 20 - Matchday Discussion – Collingwood@North Melbourne (Etihad - 7:25PM)

[TradeDraft]

Form improving. I think we win today and Blair kicks 5 goals.

Then Moore to Kick 10+ Tommorow

Then Moore to Kick 10+ Tommorow

That would be perfect

North will beat us at Etihad like they usually do.

4 more games to go and we have only blooded one player and we go into this game unchanged. Madness.

I hate North more than most clubs so I would love to win this game even though a loss is better but North have impressed me with their young players in patches and I think we will struggle.

Too much run for Collingwood and they play the ground better than any other. North by 24 points.

Pies have too much depth in the midfield.

North by a couple of goals.

Going to this match. First one since like May or so. Felt like a night out.

 

[Horaceg]

I will be.

I will be, hate losing

Form improving. I think we win today and Blair kicks 5 goals.

Might be lucky to kick the football five times but if they are all goals that's ok.

 

[Horaceg]

I'm pencilling in a win, the disappointment of last week should be eating them up.

Good luck magpies, hope Wells and Levi have blinders

We will know who to blame then should we lose...

 

[DoubleDraw7710]

I expect a strong performance from the players in front of a prospective new coach. Blair to have a blinder.

Pendles and Varcoe out makes it a lot more even in the midfield regards depth.

 

[iGNITER]

One of Elliott, Fasolo or Thomas to kick 4+ tonight.

These games are always a little heated and more interesting than you'd expect - I get a feeling that Bucks and Scotty don't get along too well.

• Last year we tried to breathe fire and shot ourselves in the foot with rookie mistakes;
• year before that we came back from about 40 points down in the 3rd quarter to win;
• the year before that the Roos tried to assert themselves physically which just ended up with reports to Thompson and Firrito and a rampant Pies win;
• the year before that there was some aggro after the match when Bucks and Scott exchanged words about a Lindsay Thomas - Ben Reid head clash.

I get the feeling there will be some feeling in this one.

This game all depends on how much North want it.

They really got up last week as expected after being called tankers all week, but with so little press around them this week I think they will go back to being normal 2017 version of North. That is when they play 2-3 quarters of good attacking footy then totally go to sleep for 20-30 minutes and lose the game there.

We showed we can score heavily last week, and with an Etihad run under our belts only 2 weeks back, there's no excuses today.

Ben Brown is the only player who really worries us, although Kennedy kicked 6 against us and we still won, so I'd be ok with him kicking 4-5 today and improving his chances of winning the Coleman medal.

Blair hasn't kicked 5 since 2011 and that was the only time he did it in his entire career. Be serious please.

 

[Mkcaptain]

I can't watch or record the match tonight. I'm not sure if I should follow the scores or try to watch a replay as soon as I get home without knowing the result. Does anyone know how long it takes for the match to get uploaded to Foxtel Go?

 

[MyManLynch]

It's almost time for North to relocate to Tassie on a full time basis. They would double their supporter base over night.

I think you are getting ahead of yourself...

 

[legendstatus]

Even with some our our good players out, would be disappointed if we can't knock off this team?

And even that one feels like it must be a misprint.

Hopefully it won't be over at half time for you

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Wait are the VFL playing at Etihad before the Seniors?

Yes

Point was I wasn't being serious, just a bit of fun.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Yes

Noice.

Might head in soon and catch most of the VFL. If Buckley won't let me watch Daicos and Kirby, I might as well go myself.
