Preview The Grand Final Edition 🏆🏉 👊 Collingwood vs Brisbane, 2023

[mwhop]

If Billy plays well you can pencil checkers in for 3 goals

 

[mwhop]

It's because we adjust to the scoreboard and time of game. They need to break it down to Collingwood when leading. Collingwood when behind and vary it for each quarter.

Exactly
Why give stats that average out our different phases of gameplay?
All that matters is our stats when we are on blitz

I’d love a quarter time brawl, only this time I want Daniher floored.

 

[vindaloo]

I was one of those guys who was thinking the club should choose Freddie but I've settled on Billy-Bob. Remember when he injured his groin mid year. He was considered a significant loss.

 

[BillyElliott]

More scoring the better, especially in a game like this.

Biggest score wins

I just hope we're the ones doing the 'most' scoring. Goals, preferably

 

[BillyElliott]

Hoping big Bruzzy gets off the leash a bit, put the fear into that forward line of fake tough guys. Looking at you Raynor and Hipwood.

I think there will be a few unleashed beasts on Saturday. Players from all clubs have noticeably, imo, been holding back in fear of being suspended.

It's so bloody nice to be in a grand final. I love it that we're the centre of attention. All the rituals and parties, the houses decked out in Black and white. It's a great time to be a Collingwood supporter

exactly this.

changing your game style based on scoreboard and/or momentum and/or point of time in the game is a key driver in how a number of those stats - in terms of gross or net numbers - can play out over the course of 2 hrs.

italian national team would take the lead and then would park 2 buses (not the 1), could care less how little possession of the ball they maintained, how many shots from outside the box you attempted, how many fouls they committed ..as long as the scoreboard remained in their favour.

footy is clearly a lot easier to score but the game has, tactically, continued to evolve down that path.

I've converted three English mates and one Canadian. They all love Collingwood now.
They love AFL.
One of them has a 120 inch screen. A whole wall. Watching it there with them on Saturday morning. 11:30am start here.
The red wine will be flowing.

Wearing a black and white scarf into work tomorrow, etc.

The aura around the week is always good fun.

Reckon those that lived that day in 2018, will have a point to prove.

I hope so Jen.

Those of us who lived through GF losses always expected the players to bounce back for the next one. But it didn’t happen in the 70s, 80s or early 2000s.

But rather than be negative about it, I have a strong sense that this team, and the club right now, are different.

 

[Exambolor]

Heading into open training tomorrow then gonna check out the footy festival.

And then I’m going in for the Parade on Friday and (hopefully) get a good spot

Jordy has already mentioned "redemption".

 

[Didak Wine]

Though Leigh Matthews broke the drought for us one feels that he hates us. One being me.

 

[Didak Wine]

Anyone here watch the colingwood rant with sly

 

[iGNITER]

Geez I am pumped for this. Pumped and nervous.
There is going to be a lack of productivity tomorrow and lack of sleep the next few nights that's for sure...
