Hit us with your best shot Collingwood.

Selection considerations: Yhere is some selection pressure being placed on the current team.

Possible injuries to Jones and BZT. Jones subbed out, but it would have likely been him anyway.
Snelling and Heppel have done enough to stay in, also Hind was strong when coming in as the sub.
Davey and Voss (depending on how he goes today) as well as Weiderman coming back from a concussion.

Out: Jones and Menzie
In: Weiderman and Davey
Hind in and the sub can rotate to maybe Perkins.

Interesting days ahead.

What's with the "y" thing? I feel like I've missed something

 

[Lore]

I really would like the media narrative this week to be about Melbourne not turning up moreso than us playing well; go into this game feeling like they've got something to prove and really take to them.

The narrative will be whatever gets the most clicks unfortunately

 

[Megabattimus]

Isn't Laverde in danger of being cited.

For what? Again, nobody's mentioned anything.

I thought he ran through someone early?

I think we should challenge Zach's; he looks like he shifts his shoulder to hit the ground first and minimise the Melbourne player's impact with the ground.

Someone posted this still on Blitz from the tackle. Merrett is somewhat underneath the player. You certainly argue to downgrade the impact from medium to low. Which makes it a fine

Challenge? Has he been suspended?

Nobody mentioning it isn't infallible though. Plenty of times the MRO report has come out leaving people scurrying to find wtf he's pulled out.

 

[ghostdog]

Rather, if he is.

Had me scrambling to find the report mate

Soz, false alarm.

If Collingwood win by enough so Saints percentage is less than Essendon and Collingwood we go to Anzac day as 1 and 2 on the ladder!

 

[scythe]

Lol G*nn*v*n. Useless without frees and blow.

Cheering fir a big Collingwood win today and then for us to humiliate them!

 

[fishardansin]

... having said that seeing them lose by 10 goals 2 weeks in a row would be nice too.

 

[ghostdog]

Wow. Maybe no McStay in the ruck next week.

 

[Megabattimus]

Wow. Maybe no McStay in the ruck next week.

Phillips and Draper licking their chops.

We'll never get a better chance to knock Collingwood off this year.

Two weeks ago I thought Pies would smash us. Now it's shaping up as a good, high stakes contest.
