Collingwood v Melbourne



Recommended Posts

For some reason, I really like the way Joel Macdonald plays, but for God's sake he made me look bad in that first half. But I reckon if Jack Watts decides one day to get off his period, Mitch Clark learns how to work with our forward line and our coach gives Jeremy Howe more than two seconds on the field, we'll have a pretty devastating forward-line . . . that's if they can be bothered leading and our mids don't just bomb it on top of their heads anyway.

On the other hand Bate been pinged 3 or 4 times for holding the ball.

He's found something though, having a real crack. I used to call him the scarecrow cause he couldn't bend his arms. Just ran around calling for the ball with his arms in the air.

Good news is that the pressure and tackling is 200% better this year. Even Davey did a crucial smother!

Get the feeling we'll be involved in a lot of low scoring games- win or lose.

Playing the wings has been very noticeable.

Jack Watts has a 1%Er to his name. That's about it....

Watts has had some awful kicks to him but surely he's gotta do more! Who came on for howie?? What's was the thought process taking him off???

The only thing I can think of is that they've seen all they need to from him. Maybe we'll see him next week, maybe we won't, but I can guarantee he'll be one of the first picked for our Round 1 game.

Happy with the pressure, we should be ahead so that simple fact has me happy as well.

Surprised Howe and Bail subbed off but barring injury I reckon it would've been pre-destined. So I don't think it's a tactical move.

Kick straight dees!

Guessed he's shown Neeld he can play so it's time for the other kids to have a crack. Fair enough I reckon.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
