Preview AFL Round 8 - Collingwood v Geelong - Changes & Prematch Discuss

[juzzo]

What were our odds in rd 9 2008?

$4.50+

 

[juzzo]

Wow. Just out of interest is that the last time we were over $3.50? Almost exactly five years ago.

Assume so, I fondly remember that game as the day we "arrived".

Why are Saturday night games at 7:40 ?

Why are Saturday night games at 7:40 ?

Why do potato chip bags have 20% chips & 80% air ?

Friday nights are 7:40 too(EST). Except Perth games so people have time to get to the game after work.

Most Friday games are 7:50

 

[supahoops]

Russell is a good replacement for Shaw.

I agree

 

[Adz]

Would have preferred the 7:10 to be honest. Have a party to attend.

 

[Mateyman]

Yeah, I just put my tips in too. Did see Pendles and KOD going for the Pies. Look, we are a definite chance I think. I need to get my tips back on track, so I have (with great regret) gone with the Cats.

Lucky for me, I use my bigfooty tipping for these types of games. I tipped the Pies and Port in that one.

Really hope the Pies win!

If I think we'll lose, I tip against us. That way if we win, I don't give a **** about the tips. If not, at least I get the right tip. Leading one of my tipping comps now, so favourites all the way.

Yeah I know , they used to be 7:10 .

 

[SnakePlisskin]

Saturday games that is.

 

[GeelongFTW]

I'm a her and I'm just a realistic Geelong supporter who knows we're somewhat lucky to be 7-0 and that we're coming up against a team that has been virtually our equal since 2007!

I wouldn't say that 1 vs. 3 premierships is ''equal'' [ wins against us aside]

 

[Lord Wilberforce]

A bit late for us, but hopefully this is the beginning of teams unpicking the Geelong game plan. A bit like us in 2011.

Hate those bastards and their arrogant supporters.

 

[Matz]

I think we will lose tonight and it doesnt bother me too much if we do but all i want to see is us match it with them and play some good honest football, not the rubbish we have been putting out the last few weeks. I will be pissed if we lose by 40+ points.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Think the Pies will get schooled tonight. Judging on this season's trajectory anyway.

 

[Krueger]

The selection of Witts reeks of desperation. He is not ready for AFL, we all saw that a couple of weeks ago. When he did play we were too slow and he was subbed out. The only reason for his selection as Darren Jolly's woeful performance last week.

If we get within 6 goals tonight it would be a great outcome. Worst Collingwood team for a number of years.

A lot of players in our current side won't get us to a flag this year.

Witts
J.Thomas
Russell
Seedsman
Dwyer
Kennedy

You could make cases for Dwyer but the rest of them are too inexperienced to lead us to a flag.

Not sure if this is the right thread so sorry if so. But friend is selling his 2 tickets for $60 because he is unable to make it to the game now. PM if interested cheers

Why do potato chip bags have 20% chips & 80% air ?

So the chips don't get broken.

 

[Rusty22]

So the chips don't get broken.

but if you crush the chips up there are more to eat..

That's science I can get behind.
