Preview Grand Final Preview: Collingwood vs West Coast [DaVe86 Ultimate Preview #512]

[iGNITER]

Adam Simpson didn't sound too convincing on TFS just now when asked about McGovern.

 

[Brent24]

Simpson wasn't very convincing when talking about McGovern. He's definitely not going to be close to 100%, if he plays at all.

 

[bunter]

There is talk of an issue with either his hip or his ribs. Hasn't trained this week. Will face a fitness test before the game. Expect that he will play but if you believe the talk he may be sore.

Sam McClure on SEN earlier said his news is that if it was any other game he wouldn't be playing.

Make of that what you will.

I reckon he might face a fitness test during the game as well, “oh Levi, out with the book mate...”

 

[76woodenspooners]

We've got some good grand final experience around the club. Bucks, Maxy, Pendles, Sidey, Reid, Goldsack and Blair.

+ Varcoe
+ Mayne

I heard him swear on his kids life

 

[iGNITER]

I heard him swear on his kids life

He swore it wasn't broken ribs.
But when asked about the injury and playing it didn't seem overly convincing that he would be firing on all cylinders.

Like Martin I want him playing.

Mayne needs to punish him and make him regret declaring himself fit.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Liam Ryan up for a drink driving charge. Welp.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Liam Ryan up for a drink driving charge. Welp.

Six months late.

 

[jimmy35]

Hopefully Brody is straight into those ribs of McGovern on Saturday.

 

[Cory]

Well the players will know going in he’s not 100%, no reason not to toughen him up and make him regret playing with the injury

 

[Americanpies]

Liam Ryan up for a drink driving charge. Welp.

Nothing will happen with that. West Coast has pulled out the "health and wellbeing of Liam Ryan" "we will support Liam Ryan fully" cards. Liam Ryan could have killed someone and it would still be about Liam Ryan's personal health - in other words the lowlives will support a drink driver just to get a flag. Just like they supported the drug culture of the Cousins era. The West Coast Eagles are absolute filth. If Sam Murray played for them, he would be named to play on Saturday.

This seems like an overreaction. Filth? Really?

Jordan De Goey says hi.

Is it a full moon tonight?

 

[Americanpies]

This seems like an overreaction. Filth? Really?

Yes. Do you know how many people's lives are ruined by drink drivers? Supporting the guy? seriously... it's like he is the victim. It's a joke. I have nothing personal against Liam Ryan, but the verbal crap that is being generated about supporting him and what not makes me sick. If he ran over a kid... would they support him then? He's not the victim in this. He's the offender.

And yes they are filth. Look at the drugs culture there that was overlooked. They overlook anything so they can win flags.

De Goey was suspended indefinitely. Liam Ryan got 2 weeks off back in June when he refused to breath into the machine. He only got charged now because the blood test results have come back confirming his blood alcohol limit. If nobody else but me thinks this is liberalism gone mad, then maybe the modern world just isn't for me. The guy has done the wrong thing... and they are supporting him. Again.. it's a joke.

Are you more upset that he is a west coast eagles player and we are playing his team in the grand final....and you would prefer he was not in their team as he is a good player.....or are you just really passionate about the road toll?

When you say West Coast Eagles it's a pretty broad term. It captures the administration, the players and the supporters. Filth is really strong language and I don't believe is fair to label the supporters. I'm not arguing in support of drink driving or Ryan's actions they clearly were wrong. I just don't like generalisations as a rule because they're unfair.

 

[Anzacday]

Six months late.

I don't care, I'll wait.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

I don't care, I'll wait.

Don't reckon I could wait too long.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Just for perspective the 3 best contested marks per game players this season are McGovern, Cox and Darling.

One contested mark per Q equals 4 contested marks a game.

McGovern, Cox and Darling have taken 4 or more contested marks in a game this year 9, 4 and 5 time respectively. If Cox takes 4 contested marks in the GF he will have likely starred not just played a role.

It's a very sobering thought that WC have 2 out of the 3 best contested markers.

Well said...

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Let he who is without fault cast the first stone. Let's move on from the drink driving episode. Been there, done that.

 

[dansa]

Is it wrong if I put $1000 on West Coast?
I wouldn’t be sad if I lost my bet and if we don’t get up I more than double my winnings?

I usually do this in Collingwood Grand Finals.

If we win and you do your money you don't care a jot.

If we lose, at least you can fly yourself to Thai or Bali for a week to get away from it all.

I'm not a punter during the season but the WC odds look value to me. I think this is a dead set 50/50 game.

The eagles should be entering the match as favourites with the bookies.
