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

Balme today:

"They (medicos) weren't too concerned, and to be fair today they're not too worried that it will keep him out," he said.

Honestly if you believe Neil Balme will provide an accurate update then you need to have your head read.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

We're gonna lose now.

Surely doesn't always lie....

 

[Nop returns]

Call it off. We’re done. Let’s not embarrass ourselves.
**** me you blokes are jumpy today.

 

[joelsyt]

Lol. **** this flog. Must barrack for pieshaveinjuries

Is there any other bunch of supporters that hang their hat on two 4+ goal losses?

Christ Western Bulldogs and Geelong got closer than Collingwood.

Club has lied. Astbury is worse. Can confirm he has been hospitalised after having his leg amputated.

Will still beat Cox....

 

[Heisenberg_]

I think I could beat Mason Cox

 

[JR#8]

The wallpaper on my work computer changes randomly. When i logged in this morning, the wallpaper showed a hungry Tiger.....! signs?
enough said.......we are gonna wallop the pies ......

That popped up on mine too. It's a sign. Even Microsoft knows whats up!

 

[Jurica Stockade]

u dont risk playing him

if he plays he can get the whole team sick and if we make the gf we’ll get flogged if the whole team has flu

He might’ve caught herpes from groupies dungeon celebrating after QF win.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

We just make sure to target Adams, whether that's Graham or Nank's crunching tackles.
Sidebottom and Pendlebury can be prolific but they tend to play on the defensive half.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

We've got injuries now. Ffs.

 

[Jurica Stockade]

Disagree. Cox is a massive spud.

As long as it's just Astbury who is crook then it's fine.

Rumours of it going through the whole team and Cotch being on a drip last night as well are not good. That worries me.

Think he was taking the urine with that one mate bit like the dusty leg amputation. Would be extremely surprised if a doctor gave away patient information.

 

[Tony Stark]

Sidebottom and Pendlebury can be prolific but they tend to play on the defensive half.

Guarantee that Adams, Trelol and Sidearse will each have 30 disposals plus, its just a matter of how good our pressure is and how dangerous those possessions become.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

garth will shit himself in a big final i reckon

Was brilliant in TAC granny. Loves the big stage.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

I reckon Aish and Mayne will shit themselves more than Arsebury with gastro. I've regained confidence again. Tigs will win 101-38.

 

[SportsCentre]

Odds still fixed on $1.38
No market movement based on any rumours.

 

[biaseddustyfan]

been having flashbacks all day to the gastro saints game where we were down by 100 at half time

 

[_RT_]

Slept 9.5 hours, halfway through the day at work, 3 hours to punch out, then it is on to the game of games.

I can't handle jokes about this today lol.

I have too much on the line with Collingwood supporters.

 

[Punt rd end]

Someone said on facebook that it was announced on radio that Astbury will be playing

Bloody oath back him in.

There's a bunch of nervous squealers on here crapping themselves as we get closer to the game. I'd hate to be on the front line next to them.

We haven't lost at this venue all year.
We've beaten Collingwood twice already this year, both times at the MCG.
Collingwood have beaten just 2 top 8 sides all year. That's right - just 2! Melbourne round 12 & GWS last week. - I haven't heard many saying that this week.

Nothing is easy but if we play well I'm very confident.

 

[Jurica Stockade]

Hope this helps amcre

Rich & Coll v Top 8:

R-8 wins, 2 losses
C-2 wins, 8 losses

R-938 for, 778 against
C-748 for, 891 against

Also looked at the Top 5-6 possession winners for both teams in each game.
Richmond have 17 different players and Pies only 12.

Also, we've had at least one player kick 3 or more in 9 of the 10 games.
Pies have done it only 5 times.

We are a much better all-round team. More contributors, less to rely on.
Just gotta bring the pressure!!

This happened quickly, just yesterday the players are all up and about, out training, laughing and meeting the fans. Today the clubs fighting off the plague
