[all seeing eye]

McRae is out of the Richmond era, where quick ball movementi is key, high pressure, keep ball alive, run in supporting waves. Dees all defence is sad and boring

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Sydney and Collingwood are clearly in their own tier this season.

 

[Coobk001]

Some absolute no names in that Collingwood side, their players play for the coach and know it’s a winning formula.
Got to say though Melbourne are mentally shot.

True, Collingwood lost last week and have been bumbling along, but its the way they play thats so much different to us. Of course their talent void due to injury catches up to them sometimes, but theyre just so god damn clean and structured regardless. They believe unequivocally in their game and they play like it.

They look miles ahead of the rest, especially Sydney

 

[JUSTWORK]

Collingwood are ridiculous. They are coached so much better than us.

Imagine our side with Wines, Boak, Finlayson, Rozee, Dixon, SPP, Marshall, Lord all out, playing Melb on the big stage. I mean those are the sort of equivalent outs they have.

And to think, McRace was available when we shit our pants in the Prelim against the Dogs but we stuck with Hinkley 'cos, "HoW eLsE yA gOnNa GeT"

I'd be fine with going into games without about four of those guys on the regular.

working out for Melbourne? About as expected

Based on their output we do anyway!

 

[TazD]

They should use todays earnings to find out whats wrong with Lingy.

is snapping goals it’s time to go.

"Mirrow ball? What about an 8 ball instead?"

Ben Cousins.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Melbourne are embarrassing themselves now

 

[philreich]

We all know that if the swans come up against carlolton in the GF, the men in pink will have a big say in the result…

2016 revisited.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Monday Football blows more than Sunday graveyard.

It’s a long weekend Jimbo.
It’s either that or the Chaser.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Sydney and Collingwood are clearly in their own tier this season.

If Carlton get fit I reckon they can challenge. This year's flag is a race of three.

 

[sobrave]

BT: isn't it so amazing Collingwood keep setting crowd records!

Melb population 2024: 5.3 million
Melb population 2000: 3.3 million

Truly incredible that they've increased the crowd records by a few hundred people, when the city has increased in population by 66% in the last 25 years..

you should get the Internet mate it really opens up the opportunities

Where's the Mac Andrew umpire when you need him? How is that not 50?

Pickett needs to put Maynard out cold

Melbourne are soo bad

McRae has instilled massive self belief into this team. It's largely the same team that finished 17th less than 3 years ago.

Ok cheers, I’ll look into it.

And made finals the three years before that incl a GF...

 

[JUSTWORK]

Who'd of though that was a better way of coaching than "Finals are Scary", "We've got a long way to go to be as good as them" & "we were expecting to lose two of the first 3 anyway"

 

[JimmyBC]

Have they panned to Daddy Daicos on the piss as usual today?
