This should be some game.

Almost 12 months ago to the day, the Pies beat the Doggies 53 to 21 but I think that the doggies are a better team this year (but so are we) and will not be as easy.

Five wins on the trot, already a club record, and a sixth tantalisingly looming on the horizon. The Pies will go two games clear on top if they get the four points on Sunday. Collingwood ranks first for average disposals, second for handballs, but tellingly, eighth for kicks.

The Dogs are also on the march this season, recording four straight victories. The last time the AFLW side achieved this was at the tail end of 2018 and start of 2019. One area of concern would be the spread of goalkickers, particularly against a strong Magpie defence, with just five players kicking majors this year.

The Pies have bought in Abbi Moloney for the injured Jordan Membrey (ACL).

The debut on Sunday will hold extra significance for the 18-year-old who will face off against the club her father, Troy Moloney played 36 games for.

Moloney comes into the side for third-year Magpie, Jordan Membrey who suffered a season-ending ACL injury during last Sunday's 35-point win over the Demons.

Maddie Shevlin and Bella Smith have been named as emergencies for the round six match.

Player to watch for Western Bulldogs is Ellie Blackburn.

I wonder what the approach to Blackburn will be today. Team defence or send someone to her?
I would go first sending someone to her. Our defence has been pretty solid to date but she is good.

Don't like it then Either put them on Ignore or Don't come on here during the Weekend then

If I wasn't gonna come on here because of people bagging their own players I'd never be on here. This is all this forum is now.

Then unless things Change on here then stay the Same
 
Can I comment about ch7 and their horrible coverage. I swear there is one person in the crowd with an iPhone and that’s the stream they are going with. A bit embarrassing for them.
 
I like watching the Pies women. I certainly find it more entertaining than watching opposition games.

SOme of it typified by teh Chiocchi left handed handball.... way outside her skill range but she still gave it a go. The team wont get any better if you take safe options..

As for the baggers, a pack of 5 year olds. Probably the biggest anchor on the players, the other mob would be the back slappers.
