Game Day NAB Challenge - Collingwood vs Western Bulldogs (Etihad - 1.10pm)

[mattys123]

Strangely enough this is our only trip to the stadium Eddie wants to demolish until July 22nd and then we play 3 of our next 5 games there.

So not much to gain in terms of getting used to the ground today.

I want to see us run with our top class midfield rotation for at least a small period today. Just for 15-20 minutes to see how powerful it is when all together.

Even though the result of this game means nothing, I'm excited to watch these two teams go at it who IMO will play a similar brand of footy this year with both of our teams having two of the most emerging lists in the Comp.
Here's hoping both teams get to execute what they want and ofcourse.. No injuries !!

 

[Soaring Magpie]

I'm expecting a shootout, attacking footy by two the the games most exciting young lists

 

[PepperFace]

Be Interesting Game with our Strongest Side but with Reports of a Bug Going Thru the Team that went to Wagga Wagga. Some Players might not be 100%.

Fantastic to see Treloar in the AFL Side

Our Midfield looks a tad Scary with Treloar,De Goey,Adams, and Pendles

Hope Aish get's to play and prove himself for RD 1

Just hope we don't get Flogged and No Injuries

You going Dave? I cant make it....would love to be there for the debut of our #7

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Aaaah, the joys of the ignore function...

Are you BJ MkII?

 

[Seedsfan]

Can't believe you got sucked in by that serial shit-stirrer. Only posts he ever makes are specifically designed to get reactions.

Never seen him post before, I am a tad embarrassed through

 

[CFC2010]

Great write up once again mattys123

Should be an entertaining game.

I hope Gault continues his form and takes his chance in Round 1.

It's ok. No need to be embarrassed.

I thought the way Beveridge dropped Boyd and went with 1 ruck against us last time, with a small mobile forward line exposed our defensive set ups. Still have nightmares about Marley on likes of Stringer and Dickson one out.

I am hoping today Bucks and the panel have learnt a little from last year and have some set ups to counter this. Funnily enough in the 2 NAB games so far, our forward entries (eg hitting up the likes of a Fasolo around 35 metres out with short to medium kicks), and our quick rebounds from defence have had a real Dogs feel to it, so will be interesting to see how we go against them.

No injuries, move the ball well and scoreboard impact from our talls is my hope for today! I don't really think we're much chance of winning after hearing the "flu" popped up midweek.

Heading to Frankston Station now to go to Footy

 

[Baltimore Jack]

Looks like my Treloar mail was spot on. Awaiting apologies.

Can't see Aish or Treloar being fit for NAB Cup with their chronic injuries.

Even Balmey seems to have written off Treloar for round 1. The Davoren curse strikes again.

 

[Dynamics]

Happy Treloar Day, Magpies!


Expecting us to play some good footy, but we may have a bit of a fadeout in the second half due to the bug that went through the club. Round one is the priority.
