Game Day Round 4, 2024 : Collingwood v Hawthorn, 5:10pm Sunday 7th, Adelaide Oval

[arupist]

Heading into enemy territory , watching with a few pies supporters (other school parents) and have spent 16 hours on a cook of pulled pork and brisket for it .
Hoping the bbqing and AFL gods smile kindly on me

Need a midfield lift again defensively , Lewis hurts structurely but now gives us a chance to be unpredictable

Hawks by 8 ( realistically want us to be super competitive )

I thought Hawks by 8 was being realistic. We have been competitive in every game so far (save a couple of bad quarters). We are going to jag one sooner or later. And this could be it.

My boy Mabior will kick a bag today.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Oh god. Graveyard shift on Fox Footy.
I'm feeling a Dwayne, Underwood, Derm and David King special

Thinking the same. Without Lewis getting in his way, will have a ton of ball delivered to him today. Likely opponent is Frampton too.

If Westcoast can shove the Swines around here and there for 3 quarters, we're definitely capable of doing this. Just depends which version of our side comes out to play today. We're about Dew for another upset win... and the game is being played in Adelaide.

Nukem, Sic and Lewis have disappointed the most so far. These are players you would expect to lift the side, instead we’ve been carried by new recruits and kids carrying a weight of expectations but still finding their feet. Very few showing the way atm. Thank **** for Worpel and Frosty.

I don't get the Dwayne hate from some people.

If anyone's listened to his show on SEN, he's really objective.

Maybe the kids will realise, after 3 rounds, that the senior guys can't carry them. It's all on them now, especially when you look around at the team today - it's mainly kids.

I agree with both.

I like him as a voice and opinion on his SEN show...

I dislike his cliches and blokey bluster as a commentator...

My dream is to have the crowd noise and no commentary.

 

[killerspud]

Hard to believe that team of clowns won a flag last year. No tall forwards. We hold them and run away with it

Hawks by 29

Prediction: Worpel is going to have amazing game like his other games this season. Ginnivan will kick a bag of 5 against his former teammates as he loves the spotlight. Chol will kick 3 with lewis out. Mckenzie and Newcombe will have great games. Finn will shut down Daicos again.

I’ve changed my mind a lot on Dwayne since i have become fed up with the likes of BT and Darcy - he’s light years ahead… I rarely watch with audio these days. Might give the radio audio a try. Is Matt Hill doing this game anywhere ?

He’s an AFL lap dog on par with the two clowns Maher and Gaze in the afternoon. Stopped listening to all three quite a while back

Brown... skids.... marks....

Really like Dwayne.

Mashes mute button an odd number of times.....

Not a stretch to suggest that fingernails down a blackboard would make a better commentator.

It's not just the schmaltz, he's the full package – the tone and the syncopation are brain scorchingly terrible. Almost like someone came up with antichrist commentator persona and gave it a microphone.

A few steps ahead of them, but a very poor man's Dennis Commeti.

Just doesn't have the brain vocabulary or voice to go with the man he's trying to rip off.

To my ears at least.. BT's MMM rawwwwwwwwwwks football bit was only marginally worse than a fired up Russell.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Last 3 matches a combined total of 16 goals to 3 in the first quarter.

4:2
5:0
7:1

Slow starts are killing us

Worse still: Last three matches 26-35 to 48-18!!! That's 61 scoring shots to 66, we're 0-3 with a percentage of 62.42!!!! Unbelievable.

First win of the season coming up. I'm not confident but I can feel it.

If we can avoid the slow start then we can really do some damage here i reckon.

No Breust or Gunston or Lewis up forward - no room for slowness up there. Massive shame wiz is injured.

Things I want:

• Sicily to have a 30+ best on ground game.
• Newcombe back to what he's capable of.
• 5 Chol goals.

Having worked with both of them - Dwayne is a real gentleman, gives you the time of day happy to hear your views. BT - not so much

Opinion meets real world experience and feels slightly embarrassed. Well, for half of said opinion at least.
