Game Day Collingwood v Brisbane, Marvel, 18 August, 7.50pm

[Doc1763]

We arent even trying anymore, club is rightfully spooked after the Naicos and Moore injuries. Anything less than a 6 goal win is a fail for Brisbane.

Its the type of game we would win under MM

Why do they make the call so late? Why don't they release their names now rather than have us wonder and wait until tonight? It's a long night when you know it's a loss coming up and you will be standing on a jam packed platform for half an hour after the game after being crushed in the walk to the station and then a LONG journey home. Sometimes it's simply a matter of duty without much joy attached.

Noble and Daicos certainly looked sore at training.

So too did Beau to be fair.

Beau has a groin… and something to do with an infection and been on antibiotics this week. far as I know he is playing.

It’s our best chance at getting a flag. I don’t blame the club for thinking long term in having our players ripe for finals

They want you begging for Cox.

A big loss might cost us top 2?

Don't think so, our percentage is well ahead of Port Adelaide’s. They will need to get big wins in both of their remaining games, like 10 goal plus wins....

And all he’s got is a Johnson

Its not about us

Fair chance Tom Browne is wrong, cant remember the last time he got something right.

Lol, they don't make selections to appease fans - if they did Ginnivan would have played every game this year. They're either giving everyone a chance to be right to play up until the last possible minute or they're playing funny buggers for a slim competitive advantage.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Lock it in thar BT will be heavily critical of Collingwood for not taking the game seriously and wrecking the spectacle

We are giving some of our younger boys a run before finals. We may be looking for that late season x factor player to come into finals. Maybe it's a Ryan or Allan. Maybe Reef comes in and kick a couple of bags of 3, and takes that form into finals....

 

[Doc1763]

I knew we shouldn't have delisted Blair............

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Unless we lose v essendon, we won't lose top 2

Even if we lose both, Port would need to win both of their games by over 100 points and we'd need to lose both of ours by similar. We're not dropping out of top 2.

Is there a chance sidey is not quite fully fit? Foot issue not ideal on marvels known poor surface. Allan to cover wing for him maybe

 

[legendstatus]

Big test coming up for the Lions - NOT US

 

[swoop42]

It would be highly unusual for us to hand Allan a debut without declaring it earlier in the week wouldn't it?

We tend to celebrate these moments on our social media platforms.

To be fair though out of all the stories, you can see this one being a better chance of being correct given circumstances.

 

[3rdMan]

Anyone even close to injured should not be playing, so it's a positive for me if we have late outs, shows we aren't taking unnecessary risks.

he was rested last week so he's fit

A belting in this match is a disaster for us. If we can keep it under 15 that's almost a win for us psychologically

If we win, you can put a line through Brisbane

What does old mate Tom Browne mean by "a few" - does he mean literally 3+?

I highly doubt it'll be anything like that. I still think it'll just be Jobes out.

Yeah, I am doubtful too - Browne is a deadshit
