Game Day Round 6 - Port vs Collingwood

[Launchpad McQuack]

Cheese is sub

JEDHEADS GONNA STORM THE ROOMS IN PROTEST

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I don't think Sweet is useless. I think playing a second ruck is useless. It's like playing your second best goalkeeper as a striker and hoping they'll get on the end of a few crosses.

If Sweet has a shocker today it's not his fault. Or if we play Sweet as the #1 and Soldo has a shocker today, it's not his fault either.

Hyperbole at its finest.

If Sweet compete hard, he can do no worse than a hobbling Dixon. He clunked a good one in the goal square last SANFL

McEntee sub, one step in the right direction

Might mean he gets a game next week if someone performs poorly.

 

[Del165198]

Honestly the moment I am most looking forward to is when Mac and cheese is UNLEASHED.

 

[JimmyBC]

Soldo has a bit of forward craft but what would you tell Sweet if he plonks down there for a few minutes? just hang deep?

 

[Rash]

Sweet is also starting ruck, soldo fwd. with the midifeld of Drew,butters and rozee. wines bench and JHF forward. the afl app updates 1hr before the bounce and the player positions are 100% accurate for the first bounce

Dixon kicked 2 goals last week. Sweet has kicked 2 goals in his 11 game career. He absolutely can and will do worse than Dixon. I'd go far enough to say that if we'd played Sweet instead of Dixon last week we would have lost.

I think it’s a shocking move ,bringing him on as sub will have zero impact.
It’s like taking someone off and not replacing them.

 

[TeeKray]

McEntee as sub is good news for the Jed haters because it'll lower all of his averages so they can use disingenuous stats in all future arguments.

yeah i totally agree, horrible move, but it potenitally means McEntee is closer to getting axed finally.

He should have been axed this week, pointless making him sub.

 

[Marat]

Hinkley you turd - says that Toddys not there to kick the goals? Who’s going to kick the ****ing goals then - the pressure forward Mcentee, the guy 2 games back from an ACL, the half back turned pressure forward, the resting ruckman that has one career goal? God help us

 

[Interstater]

How about letting him play a damn game for us first.
Sheesh.

Hope Port win by enough to remove the umpires influence, but I can see a classic drop heads at bad decisions scenario coming.
Anyway, time to make some pizzas and put on Timmy and Tredders.

 

[Capital Power]

Not confident, but I really should be. Collingwood still not clicking and they had a week off last week, which is unlikely to help. A home crowd and umpiring will work in their favour, but as long as we haven't been told to "fear the G" we should get up.

Port by 10. Hope Sweet does enough to justify his selection (even though there was really no other option).

Agreed but 1 quarter of zero impact is better than 4 quarters of zero impact.

just said that Dixon is a huge out. Is the AFL World that deluded?

 

[HINKLEY OUT]

Collingwood by 60 points in a Hinkley Special.

 

[Prison bar Pete]

Not just scary, it's terrifying! I smell a loss, but I seem to have a blocked nose when it comes to tipping of late. Collingwood in a "thriller".

 

[Coobk001]

McEntee sub, thank god. Ideal scenario is we have a few healthy weeks, he finds himself back in the SANFL and never comes back.

 

[Del165198]

Do what Charlie does

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Saturday arvo, good weather at the MCG, big crowd, we don't win many of these type of games. A win will be a big thing.

 

[gtrxuone]

Lets wipe the memory of last years game V Maggies at Mcg.
We look a better side,than 2023.
