Agreed for some it's their last shot.

If only that was true.

Most of the I/C come from the white team. Cameron in white as well.

That photo of the players reaction to Howe being a dad is telling. That's the most excitement and passion I've seen all year. Maybe we can get revved up about footy next year. One can only hope.

 

[domus]

So who is our second tall up forward? What a terrible set up.

Ah yeah, you're not one to write off a kid 3 games into his career..... You legit wrote that Ollie Henry wouldn't make it after two rounds. Embarrassing.

If rantall makes it at Collingwood

What's your definition of makes it?

 

[pablo disco bar]

What's your definition of makes it?

At a minimum at callun Brown or mason Cox type career...50 to 70 games

Real uninspiring selections to cap off an extremely poor year.

The only positive of this is with 4 more quarters, the clean out begins. Assumably starting with Harvey

Our selection committee over the last 5 years has been deadset exhausting to watch.

 

[Rebuilder]

Obviously the club believes Rantall is part of the future, I was a little surprised but maybe he's doing something in the numbers that doesn't show up to the naked eye.

I’d be keen for Sanderson to go first, if we need to start with someone. I’d be ok with scissor, paper, rock between the two to be fair to everyone

 

[Kirby]

We didn’t have much chance of winning this game but now have next to none with those selections.

 

[jmac70]

Pies win by 5 goals.

Same re.. we'll meet in the post covid normal and go out and party re.

 

[Rebuilder]

He'll make John Rantall look like his less skilled cousin.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Macrae and McCreery omitted seemingly an odd decision, granted Fin had a little ankle tweak.

 

[Rebuilder]

MSN

 

[manicpie]

I think

Obviously the club believes Rantall is part of the future, I was a little surprised but maybe he's doing something in the numbers that doesn't show up to the naked eye.

The only numbers rantall would be doing would be his 8 times table, he looks about 14yo, no body and very slow

Somebody down there sees it differently.

 

[No SPIN]

Why is it good to have a small, slow kid who cannot kick over a jam tin back? As for his renowned aerobic capacity, he has been gassed in both games I've seen him play. His legs look like they were in cement boots last time he played in the seniors.

At 184cm and 82 kg - he's bigger than Merrett, Parish, Ham, McGrath, Shiel, Smith and Zaharakis

 

[Rorzza]

When in doubt stack the team with mid size defenders with average skills. Ball movement not a priority ...
Bucks left his play book lying around!

 

[Markfs]

Another wonderful press conference from Harv.... his second last. I saw coming in that it was almost 9 minutes, which is one of the longer ones for Harvs. I managed to make it to about 3 minutes and 20 seconds. He's a master of this stuff and I must admit that I think he could do the job for several years and still not produce a headline.
