DEAD RUBBER
Imagine Collingwood outside the eight and playing Geelong next week.Imagine playing the 10th side without their 2 best players and leading by seven goals, having the umps paying double the frees to their side include the momentum killer clear mark to Hogan in front of goal where the blues then kicked the next 2 goals and losing.
wow
Meaningless game, we got the Pies out of the eight if everything goes right.
Carlton are $1.01 to miss finals. That's 1% chance to miss. Where there is hope for you I guess..dead rubbers are when you have a certain final spot assured. Tad early for dead rubber games.
We are 2nd mate, that's all that counts.dead rubbers are when you have a certain final spot assured. Tad early for dead rubber games.
One player went at 45%, the other at 42%.
One player baulked at getting tackled near the boundary line and stepped over to avoid contact the other player did not
I guess they really arent comparable
End of this round, Carlton in 2nd, Pies anywhere from 8th to 10th, those are the facts
Hang on.Carlton are $1.01 to miss finals. That's 1% chance to miss. Where there is hope for you I guess..
Hey, MR - have you seen this?Collingwood have won 4 of their 16 games this year by more than 1 goal. Only 2 of those involved having more scoring shots than the opposition team.
Games won decisively, ie by >1 goal with more scoring shots than the opposition team:
Collingwood 2
Carlton 7
Games lost that were not decisive, ie by 6 or less points or with more scoring shots than the opposition:
Collingwood 1
Carlton 3
Tells us all we need to know.
Since you're so interested in the ladder I'll show you again later tonight.
yeh but I'm guessing you would prefer to be top 4 with the 2nd chance?Carlton are $1.01 to miss finals. That's 1% chance to miss. Where there is hope for you I guess..
I think you should start a new thread:
You’ve still missed the point.apologies, did not clarify my thoughts clearly. You would much prefer Saad (missed 5), Pittonet (9), Foggarty (6) than McKay (0), Curnow (0) or Cripps (0). Walsh and Cerra are very very good midfielders but not in a game changing way that Cripps is.
every official list shows both of those listed to Essendon so unsure what your point is
So because three of our top five players haven't been injured it means that we haven't had a tough run with injury. This is AFL not basketball - bizarreapologies, did not clarify my thoughts clearly. You would much prefer Saad (missed 5), Pittonet (9), Foggarty (6) than McKay (0), Curnow (0) or Cripps (0).

The poor old DB’s.I think you should start a new thread:
'Richmond and Carlton - who gets the most top 5 draft picks?'
One player went at 45%, the other at 42%.

Not bad. Gave me a chuckle.Pies are cooked. Fielded the oldest team in the comp yet again.
Scott Pensionbury is slower than me, Jeremy Howoldisthiscampaigner is 34, Steelwalkingframe Sidebottom is 33.
And now 31yo Brody Pensioncheck is gone for the season, will be 32 when he next plays. And no rd 1 draft pick. What a mess this list is. Need to get Ned Guy back to sort it out.

Has a nice ring to it .
Poor tormented Tigers deciding to hitch their wagons to Carlton!!Not bad. Gave me a chuckle.
Though you're kinda chirpy for a guy whose team is now officially worse than North.
