Rd10 Matchday Thread: Collingwood Vs WCE, MCG

[footballfreak]

Too many players not contributing, most weeks; Ebert, Sheppard and McGinnity.

Agree on Ebert but not on Sheppard or Mcginnity. We've controlled their small forwards so far. It's their midfielders kicking the goals.

Pendelbury and Thomas.

 

[paul22]

we cant take a mark inside our forward 50 to save our life and collingwood are killing us when the ball hits the deck and rebounding off defence. This is gona get embrassing i feel. Maybe we read too much into last weeks big win, maybe if we were playing them at subi we;d be half a chance but we look way out of our league here

 

[dajesmac]

I've liked Schofield today.

Only agree with Ebert. There are a few other players you could have mentioned but it seems you just picked the regular whipping boys. Sheppard has had 8 disposals and been very creative with a few of them by foot.

Would love to see us come out in the 2nd half and give it a real crack.

Don't mind if we don't win but would love to see us finish strongly and give the pies something to think about.

 

[Quinz]

Been too tentative from the get go in the midfield. The hunting mentality isn't there. Poor disposal, long bombs into the forward line. I can't believe we are getting smashed so badly in the midfield / clearances. Every tap is getting sharped.

Have to try something different. What's plan b?

Roll the dice, bring Madten on for the start of the 3rd.

With Pendles, Thomas and Swan in the middle it's not that surprising.

I don't think we're playing that bad, just seeing what the benchmark is.

 

[lynchy magic]

somebody needs to tell cox that he isn't an elite kick and needs to handball to our runners.
like when he had that set shot at goal he had hurn streaming past for the handball with a clear run to the fifty

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Okay, I've calmed down a bit, if only momentarily.

We're not playing that badly. I think that half did show signs that we have improved an amazing amount still, few teams in the comp would be in a better position to what we are now if faced with that Collingwood first half.

Need Masto now. **** Ebert off, permanently that is. Shep's been okay, but he's no Sam Butler.

Kerry looks like he wants to kill someone, and hopefully he does. If we can't win, hopefully we can at least smash some of these smartarse *****.

 

[dajesmac]

Frustrating quarter! Some interesting umpiring decisions both ways I thought. If we had been able to convert a bit better (Shuey and Nicoski) we would be right in this..

Bit harsh, had some very difficult shots. Nicoski I agree with though.

 

[Adam Selwood]

Send McGinnity to Thomas and activate Masten ASAP

Maybe even throw Naita forward, we need some speed up forward when the ball hits the deck

 

[lyall]

Thought we were due for some footy karma with Maxwells deliberate behind, then seconds later Buckley drops the ball while being tackled 15 meters out. No free kick and massive WTF

 

[Shazzman]

Whats the score

 

[Scotland]

Why are the commentators talking up Priddis?

Yeah he's had 19 touches, but bugger all of them have been creative or damaging and their midfielders are responsible for most of their score.

What the?

 

[Juddy88]

We're gonna get smashed now.

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

What the?

Drop Ebert from the team, no?

And why can't we get a bit more physical? Kerry got belted, got up, and wanted to give a bit back. Nothing wrong with that.

 

[baby eagle]

Whats the score

collingwood: 53 WCE: 20

 

[wcesam]

Even a Dane Swan grade-A shank results in a goal

Bullshit, he's one of our only mids showing balls.

Whats the score

53-20

 

[pantskyle]

50/50 much

 

[CursoryMercenary]

**** off you **** umpires.

 

[Scotland]

Oh great, a soft kick 15m from goal.

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Yeah, gonna get destryoed now.

 

[E92_]

cmon kennedy

 

[CursoryMercenary]

Lynch being held of course not given. Well done Kennedy.

 

[Brewster_]

Nice clearance from Priddis there.
