Game Day Collingwood vs Richmond - Sunday 28th July 2024 - 1:10pm

[Kirby]

Quick thought, assuming results go the way think it will (50-50 against the Tigers and a loss to Carlton then Sydney) and at that point the mathematicalfinals chance pretty much evaporates, do you consider putting Cameron on ice for the year given he's starting to look a bit banged up? Book him in for surgery abd get him right to hit the ground running next year. Just have Cox and Smit ruck out the remainder of the year.

What surgery does Cameron need?

 

[Jafo]

Beat Richmond and we are very much in the finals race.

And there in lies the biggest hurdle to begin with.

Could well happen I reckon , if we win those 3 then diff story

 

[No SPIN]

Maybe Fly will learn something from Mitchell on how to play a small forward and all Schultz to play Ginnivan-like for the rest of the year rather than anchoring him inside F50

I think Mitchell would prefer to see Ginnivan play like Schultz - effort application and focus, every week.

Head replacement.

You're talking Tom Mitchell right?

Because the Hawthorn coach Sam is apparently loving Ginnivan's game at the moment. And the Hawks in general rave about his football IQ.

What surgery does Cameron need?

Does it really matter? Just get him some surgery.

Can we wrap it in christmas ribbons?

I think Mitchell will be very happy to get a young player whose got lots of upside and lots of tricks in the door for not much rather than a steady player who we sold the farm for

Was a very cheap farm

 

[JLC]

Struggling to see how we win this if we play like the last 4 weeks

Yup our form is getting worse - hopefully last week was rock bottom. But never say never with Collingwood.

Who cares. Lets cut him open to get him ready for next year.

I can’t believe we omit Reef and Richards and keep a guy like Long in the team.

Baffling really.

 

[LuckyLee]

The omission of Richards is hard to understand. Played great immediately from debut, got injured, back for one game and out again.

From the extended bench, I hope its Harrison, DeGoey, Frampton and Hoskin-Elliott who make the 22, with Lipinski as sub (and lucky not to be dropped altogether).

Not a good sign for Reef or Richards.

I’m starting to really wonder whether or not our MC is too quick to just write our youngsters or next wave off.

It’s really becoming all too familiar

There’s a comment Hine made pre draft last year that was alarming in that he mentioned these boys come in and really have 2 years to really make an impression
We are literally almost taking this to the nth degree in how quickly we are discarding our young draftees by the looks of it when you look at the players we have cut since 21/22
Not one “senior” or veteran player in that time frame but a stack of kids out the door and it looks set to continue this year with the patterns that are emerging

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

The strange selections continue on....Why drop Richards, who has been excellent with ball in hand by creating scoring opportunities, and when will McInnes ever get any form or confidence by playing one or two weeks then be the first to be dropped most times.....
The Richmond IN's are definitely going to make them stronger.....

Close to full strength.only missing checkers, Mitchell and beau

 

[Aussie pie]

Hmm Reef dropped again, well what a surprise that is, no one saw this coming. Cox straight back in another shock.

(Sarcasm font not working today damn)

 

[stormskye]

Changes to me suggest Degoey gonna spend more time forward

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

See ya Reef. I believed in you.

We are royally ****ing this list even as fragile as it is

 

[Mick F]

And there in lies the biggest hurdle to begin with.

McStay and Moore the two keys.

MC?

Is there an actual role for Reef? If so, what is it? We seem to have a few "versatile" players - Begg, Ryan, Reef, Macrae, McInnes but they have no real position?

I'm not really sure how Reef is meant to succeed whilst being a yoyo between seniors, being the sub and VFL. If someone knows the grand plan then please let me know.
