Preview Preliminary Final v Collingwood MCG Friday 21/9/18

[Cotcho]

I, too, thought Collingwood was impressive. At the same, they were playing a bottom-of-the-eight team, not the minor premiers.

Yep agree.

 

[Slipps]

Are we booing them when they come out ? Make them feel unwelcome at our home ground ?

 

[RFCGloryJC]

Media propaganda will boost Melbourne and Collingwood.
I just switch it off.
It's just external noise and clutter.
I will be interesting to see selection, whether Conca or Ellis.

Certainly, the fans can boo Thomas. He is a drug cheat.

Hmmmm

Richmond Championship Ground?

Am I right?

 

[SportsCentre]

Anyone think we may be playing GWS if Josh Kelly played last night?

 

[Swanny69]

Will you guys have someone run with Sidebottom? He’s been our best over the finals so far.

Yep Balmy

That sounds better than the Richmond Cricket Ground

 

[blackcat]

Butler anyone? Can’t see him getting in

I want DB. But it seems his spot is occupied currently, and to change the numbers of that role, small-fast-forward, seems to flirt with disaster uneccessarily

but I would love rioli butler castagna plying their trade

what is amazing is Jack Higgins carving out a spot

Pies are shit.

Will be the same as usual for whenever one of the "contenders" played us this year and even during finals last night. All this media talk and oppo interviews etc and we will just be sitting in the background going quietly about our own business, not saying or doing much.

Yesterday against Giants pies had space and did as they pleased.I seen a bit of pressure and tackling from giants in there forward 50 and pies were under pressure.Got to bring the heat from our forward 50 and through the midfield pressure and tackling and hit them hard and cut there space like against hawks.Have to make Howe accountable to.

Bucks sounded like Scott yesterday boasting.Won't have it bruise free this week pies.

Was the prelim this expensive last year? I don’t remember paying $187 for Category 1 tickets and I definitely got Cat1...

Last year you were probably just happy to be there and couldn't care less about the cost of a ticket. This year we've all had a long long time to think about this game (let's be honest we all knew we'd be this deep into September many weeks ago) and hence more time to think about ticketing.

 

[blackcat]

Nearly every team has claimed they could match us for three quarters but really it's a level of pressure very few can withstand for a full four.

Why not? You can't seriously expect that they will be silent when our boys come out.

Apparently they have a next level to goto i think he was talking about us

 

[blackcat]

Pies to win by -30 points. any loss under 6 goals is a moral victory for them

Good just wanted to make sure we are all on the same page i will definitely be booing... lucky there wont be enough minnows on there side to make much noise

 

[db26]

This is the problem, if your midfield is dominating and ball is coming in with good delivery, it's harder to defend, and it's harder for your forwards to score because of this. Because their midfield is capable of beating ours, our advantages forward and back are somewhat reduced.

Our midfield can go head to head with there's no issue not sure people saying there's is A grade.Ours isn't that bad gez so much class there would think one of our biggest strengths.

I think we would be playing GWS if gws didnt play like their sister club in the first qtr.

We need to keep our hands off cox. Cannot touch this guy without giving a free kick away. Umps will b all over this. If he converts those frees to goals look out.

Starting to play for frees now to,but we need to make him accountable to he doesn't chase pressure or tackle and is slow on the ground we seen this last 2 weeks.
