Game Day Round 23, 2024 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

[Mr Ripper]

Find out in a few hours if last week was just a blip or the beginning of the end. Accurate goal-kicking and disciplined, selfless play pls.

 

[harvester]

Ashcroft was back to his best last week, great to see.
Sidebottom is pretty average these days, so I'm confident lachie will have a very good game.
Starch to Hill should be an important good contest for us to win the match
Go Lions!!!!!!

If you don't leave from Punta Arenas (which is in Chile), you leave from Ushuaia in Argentina - which phonetically is "uh-schway-er", or "You sway her" if someone takes a lot of liberties with it.

So the pun (tortured as it is) is either food poisoning from Ushuaia, or sea sickness because you sway her.

The more you know!

That joke must go down a storm in... not sure where, actually

As always it will be won in the midfield/ contested footy. I feel we have the edge on them in this department. We need Lachie - Dunks and Ashcroft to go to work. Win it in the coal face and feed it to Hughy and hopefully Joey or Charlie have a day out. Rayner needs to keep us his great form.

What I don't want to see is us let the Daicos boys get off the chain and dominate. They have sublime skills and will hurt us if given top much space and freedom.

Been drizzling here all day but the G always is always great condition. I hope its a contested game because that will suit us more than them.

Go Lions

 

[Section 5]

30 plus point win to the Lions today.
I expect the Pies may play some players in different positions.

The sub will depend on who the coaches think may likely get an injury.
Hippy: Smith as sub
Dunkley: Sharp as sub.

Late Outs
Hippy: Smith starting player
Dunkley: Dev could be sub or Sharp an option also. Berry could take Dunkleys role.

 

[MacMum]

Not sure if I've got the nerves atm to watch the game, it will be full on as is usual between these two..

Listening on the radio is nowhere near as stressful I've noticed the few times I had to listen. Today I might choose too.

Fingers crossed for a determined, spirited effort from our boys.

..oh, and straight through the high diddle diddle goal kicking essential boys!

The Drake Passage probably

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

The Drake Passage probably

Is that lower Drake Passage or upper Drake Passage

 

[alscotoz2]

I don't think we're seeing a repeat of last weekend. More grounded effort and winning by 3 goals.

 

[Perrip]

No late changes. Sharp is sub.

 

[alscotoz2]

I'm confused. Do we want GWS or freo to win...or a draw?

 

[Ceebee]

Just want us to win .

 

[PertRoosOsborne]

Interstate team beating collingwood at the MCG, not a common occurrence.

Need to be on from the get go.

GO LIONS

 

[bato]

You'd think the club would have a bigger say in where the fans sit. All the way up in the nosebleeds.

Agreed

I light the fire pit for big games and when it gets too stressful, I switch to radio and go out and stoke the fire

I am about to mow the lawn

 

[MSB ROYS]

Season defining game. Go Lions.

I am about to mow the lawn

I often do some cleaning .

 

[Section 5]

Radar clear so hopefully weather holds off.

 

[Sproj]

Here we go ole ole ole

 

[Elixuh]

[Sproj]

Good Joe or bad Joe?

 

[haystark]

0.2 within a minute. **** me.

 

[Squizz89]

Cool. 2 simple misses to start.

 

[Sproj]

Well...we have lost our radar early.
