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

[IlovethePies]

Hardly a typo, it specifically said Richards was omitted and he was not in the emergencies. The club has brought him in from outside of the squad. I expect a please explain will be coming from the AFL.

Yeah, that is indeed weird, and concerning. Why would we have omitted JR from the squad if we needed him should JDG not come up??

Carlton be our Grand Final next week for the 2024 Season

Yikes. so we're a 38% chance of winning then?

This is an example of conditional probabilty.
Pr (Collingwood defeats Carlton next week given that Collingwood steamrolls Richmond this week) = 0.5
Pr (Collingwood defeats Carlton next week given that Collingwood loses to Richmond this week) = 0.01 (corrected to two decimal places).

The Richmond midfield will smash us tomorrow.

It's a good midfielder on paper. I haven't watched them for months - didn't realise Prestia and Hopper were back - how have they been going?

 

[IlovethePies]

Think Cox will enormously assist in our midfield strength by:
a) obstructing their young inexperienced ruckman, which should give us more opportunity to win the clearance game
b) giving DC a much needed break, so when he plays as main ruckman, he is a rejuvenated man

I think the addition of Cox, in terms of team structure and balance, is huge.

With Degoey out, and no Mitchell I really hope that Macrae tries Maynard in the middle. Crisp is great, but apart from him, Long looks slow (even if he is big) and we lack on ballers who can win the hard ball. This is where I feel like Maynard would really give us that spark in the middle we need. Throw Naicos to half back. WHE can play Maynard’s role, and keep Howe back as we need leadership and intercept marking down there

Agree with this. It also allows us not to lose the ball to opposition intercept markers 90% of the time when trying to rebound out of our D50 too if he can 50/50 it to mark or bring it down to ground level

Hearing Long might be the sub. Not sure if JDG out changes that

Long is named on the ground - doesn't it always come from the interchange? Bytel or Richards most likely.

 

[Hardas]

Well, we can't really play any worse, so I'm hoping for a bit of a breakthrough and lift.

I may be delusional, though...

We will win today mate.

I thought that last week and we played worse. I'm not 100% sure we haven't bottomed out yet.

Let's just hope we get the win and no more injuries.

That’s right. Comes from the bench. I’d suggest Bytel

Huge game today, as it's now a must win, considering the results so far this round have helped us. With both Melbourne, Essendon and even the Suns losing, has given us a real opportunity to stay relevant this season.
Hopefully the boys are going to be feeling it today and go out there and play with the high pressure, high tackling numbers, with free and choas movement of the ball we are used to seeing from our side, today.
If we're going to be half hearted, low pressure, don't tackle, give away easy uncontested ball, as we've seen over the past few weeks, then no matter who we're playing, we won't win.....

As of Friday Long was going to be sub - take it to the bank. Not sure if JDG out changes this

Thats not true, given it always comes from the bench, and per friday's article.

"The substitute will be selected from the extended bench and named 60 minutes prior to the first bounce."

I think when he said “take it to the bank”, he meant like when you take something to the bank and they say “Sorry, we don’t process those transactions at this branch anymore”

Agree - and the talk that Kreuger could replace Cox was just absurd.

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

I can see us smashing them today by 10 points.

What is this, the NAB cup? That bunch of pathetic bottom feeders are no one’s grand final.

Customarily, but unless the AFL have changed something it doesn’t have to IIRC.

Recall Tsatas being named on the ground and then being made sub earlier this year.

 

[magpienato]

I had a dream we won by 11, do what you will with the information. Gamble responsibly.

 

[Run n Spread]

Too wet to play all of Cox mcstay and Cameron.
Out Cox In either Sullivan or Allen in as sub. Richards bytel Parker all in 22.
Can't repeat last weeks selection mistake

 

[Cory]

Richmond going to pull out a GF performance out of their ass
