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

[Captivating]

Other clubs don’t allow a player to run around un touched and get 32 uncontested possessions though

IF you think Ginni had 32 uncontested disposals then you weren't watching.

 

[Captivating]

A coach who has a prelim and a flag from his two completed seasons in the AFL needing to learning something from a coach who has built a bottom 3 side for his two completed seasons in the AFL.

Yes, Mitchell is on his way to coach of the year.

We refused to have a player follow him up the ground when he pushed out of the forward line So most of the time yes he was unopposed and they were uncontested
Very poor coaching

 

[LuckyLee]

It's almost as likely to be the opposite!

Wouldn’t that be brilliant! May you prove to be the prophet of the era!

So (Schultz) he's naturally shit.

That makes it worse.

If an opposition supporter posted your tripe they'd get banned.

I can understand them posting gleefully about Collingwood's fall, but you're trolling the forum of the club you're meant to support.

 

[The Phantom]

Excuse my intrusion. While it's true I barrack for Essendon, I have no animosity towards Collingwood - I have friends and family members who are Collingwood supporters.

Meanwhile, your lads have been up for over 2.5 years now. That's a great effort for a couple of reasons:

1. In that time, you have had many, many close victories. These a far more taxing than easy wins - you basically have to be on your mettle 100% in these types of games.

2. As reigning premiers this year, you have the issue that every other club in the competition wants to beat you as a measure for how they are tracking. You're basically getting the best from your opposition consistently.

OK. So your lads are a bit banged up and are mentally and physically tired. My lads haven't won a final in 20 years. Yours, on the other hand have had 2 premierships since then.

Good luck going forward.

Would the Essendon board consider trading you for about 4 of our posters?
A couple have been posting a long time, one keeps getting selected as sub, the 4th has dubious disposal, but is a real extractor. No salary dumps involved.

I’ll throw in a signed Mal Michael footy card and a 2023 Premiers baseball cap?

 

[soreplums]

During our form drop since north we’ve lost uncontested by an average of 72. We aren’t an uncontested side, but you can’t win games when you don’t have the footy.

We got killed when the ball hit the deck. No one at the fall of the ball and then second or third to it when it was in space

He does have Ginnivan as his avatar…

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Maynard, Moore, Dean
IQ, Frampton, Noble
Jaicos, Naicos, Sidey
Howe, Elliot, JDG
Schultz, Cox, McStay

Cameron, Crisp, Pendles

WHE, Hill, Lippa, HH

Sub: Richards

I think we need Howe forward. He seems to help us kick a score. Just hope Frampton, Dean & Moore can sort themselves out.

WHE can be the 7th defender.

Pendles, Naicos, Jaicos, JDG & Crisp to carry the midfield.

Lol, as tempting as it is...

Best wishes to you all.

[Cory]

Smit to debut?

 

[BigVic]

A very different world the last time we won a game

 

[Finnishpie]

Time for youth:

I wanna see:

Fin Macrae
Reef
Allan
Dean
Johnson

Anyone else under 26 and playing okay.

 

[Jen2310]

Smit to debut?

I'm not sure. Coxy didn't do the last part of training so he was prob just filling that role. But if there is something not right with cox, then he would play.
Fly did say to a few of us that he doesn't quite know how to play our way yet, which suggests to me he isn't ready.

 

[BuildEmUp]

Smit to debut?

i would rather think Cox is slightly ahead of him

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Allan
Dean
Johnson

Allan didn't even play in the VFL last week.

 

[Kirby]

Allan didn't even play in the VFL last week.

I assume he was ill but do we actually know why?

Fair enough. Hopefully Cox is good to go definitely need him for structure

 

[Capital Magpie]

Yes, Mitchell is on his way to coach of the year.

Why don't you and your crappy avatar naff off to the Hawks board, where your profound insight would no doubt be appreciated?

If he does play, he'd at least give it a red hot crack.

 

[Jen2310]

for sure!

 

[JuniorB]

HH didn't play either.
In recent games he's looked tired, so maybe it was a week off to freshen him up.

 

[Jen2310]

Markov said to a few fans today that his partner is due to give birth in 4 days which means Sunday.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

I assume he was ill but do we actually know why?

No clue. Weird that he wasn't even included in any of the outs/injury report.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

But they at least said Harvey was managed. They didn't even mention Allan at all. And he certainly wouldn't be tired...
