Collingwood Vs Adelaide @ Dubai 9/2/08

[Blues_Man]

Yeah right

Neither club's line up will look anything like tonight

Pies are playing their best side ...umpires trying to keep them in the game as usual .

 

[Gets!]

Moran has a bloody huge leap on him!

Symes doing well in and under.

Mackay getting the ball, Tippett is strong, and Sellar looks like a different player to the guy who was languishing in Glenelg reserves...

 

[catpremier 07]

game is over already what a letdown

 

[Giddy Up]

adelaide deserve to be leading by as much as they are. the pies look very slow and sloppy. im not to concerned by the performance, the pies got flogged by north in last years nab cup.

the game lakes atmosphere but theres a bigger crowd there then what i expected.

 

[Blues_Man]

It's a worry though. Sounds like the Magpie mids have all been thrashed, particularly defensively allowing corridor space and easy swift ball movement.

Turnovers and lack of run has killed the pies ..they are atrocious by hand or foot .

Fair go mate.. their missing Brodie Holland and Ryan Lonie

They have been sick with tummy flu though, so that saps your energy.

 

[JesusHcrikey]

Ahhhahahhahahaha..


Irish guy says he can't kick, mark or tackle and the interviewer says you could play for Carlton

 

[Farmy]

Sellar has looked good, and I agree with the Collingwood posters, I would take too much from this other than the form of a few individual players.

Collingwood are missing a few from their normal line up too.

Adelaide too.

Interview with Irish bloke ahahahah.

Irish guy: Yeah I can't handball, can't mark, can't kick.
Interviewer: You could play for Carlton!
Irish guy: No, I'm not that bad.

 

[Gets!]

Symes, Knights, Douglas, van Berlo, Sellar, Tippett, Moran, Maric, Griffin, Mackay, Jackay, Otten, Vince, Reilly...youth looking good...

and there is Dangerfield to look forward to in 09.

I'm excited.

 

[Gets!]

PURE gold.

 

[smiddaz123]

Carlton won the NAB Cup recently.

That fact alone makes performances in the NAB Cup irrelevant to the Home and Away season.

Yeah I had quite a LOL at that

 

[JesusHcrikey]

I would have said Essendon with their lack of quality youth but Carlton works too

I think EVERYONE knows it is irrelevant dude.

BUT it is exciting for us AFC supporters especially to FINALLY see some young players getting a game.

I would prefer the AFC to win, as it means we get to see them on TV or live next week. Couldn't give a rats about the overall competition.

Exactly.

The only thing you can really take from it is the form of individual players.

Not trying to bring Adelaide down at all. You've played terrific.

It was more at the people thinking that one bad half in the NAB Cup means Collingwood's 2008 is a write off already.

 

[campbell]

Adelaide look more cohesive though.

If you end up copping a 15 goal hiding you wouldn't be panicking at all?

 

[__aria__]

Gee really blowing out now

 

[JesusHcrikey]

Well I'm calling the Dubai deli belly right now, that gastro has them right off colour

 

[Malceski09]

Goodwin gets his 3rd.

 

[stmookeyj]

More of the same to start the 3rd term, 2nd normal for Goodwin and 3rd all told
