Elliott, Goldsack,Wells & Greenwood all likely to be out.Maybe things turning our way. Also first time in awhile not facing a team on the rebound. Be great if Hogan played!

[Demons11 7,061]

Taylor Adams has lit a fire under the game 

[martin 727]

Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

[Gator 17,500]

Only 60K last year.

Needs to be at least 65K tomorrow week.

[martin 727]

Weather looks promising.

[jane02 3,769]

Can't wait - bring it on. Go Dees.

[DubDee 26,139]

You'd think greenwood and Goldsack with knocks should be fine to play. Wells looks no chance and we'll wait to see on Elliot. 

Pies playing pretty well at the moment so will be a tough game. Grundy will carve us up without a ruckman

What did he say?

[martin 727]

Goldsack more than a 'knock'. If he plays a shoulder requiring surgery will have to hamper him.Greenwood I believe is a muscle injury which typically become worse after cooling down.Might get up but doubtful. Wells & Elliott definite outs.

[martin 727]

Adams said that Dunn had not played in "a real successful club and was loving it at Collingwood". Dumb but shouldn't make a difference.Why say it though? Mind u, wouldn't be happy if one our blokes had done the same.Reminds me of Dawes saying that the Hawks were 'ripe for the picking'. We got smashed.

[hells bells 2,023]

Goldsack was in a lot of trouble. Wouldn't have played out the game if they weren't down men already.  Highly doubtful IMO

Because Taylor Adams knows all about success. You know, with his career high ladder position being 11th.

[Pates 9,660]

Wish I could be there. This should be one of the biggest QB games for a long time. Both teams aren't in the most amazing form but both have shown good patches through the year and a win is important for both teams season. A loss for either side will be big too. 

Hope to see a sea of Red and Blue at the MCG.

Maybe that's why Dunn loves being there, he's in his comfort zone. 

[John Crow Batty 8,879]

Wow, a few key Collingwood players could be out! A chance to maybe move up to sixth in our marquee game? What can go wrong? We don't ever let these kind of opportunities slip.

Good win by the Pies today but Freo were shizen. Sandilands was a big miss. Fyfe had to do some rucking!Collingwood injuries came late. Hill was injured early on for the Dockers and had little influence. Pies have won three in a row but struggled in this and average against the Hawks & Lions. Our biggest concerns are coming off the bye and no Gawn.

So he was stating the obvious?

[KLV 1,768]

Queens birthday Facts:

Pies

-back from travel to WA,

-2 huge outs, 2 more possible, 

Dees

- fresh after the bye

- possible return of Hogan or even Gawn

Both teams

- season defining game

- spot in the 8 on the line

blah, blah, blah, I can see a humiliating loss.

hope I'm very, very wrong

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,709]

Oh I can't wait for Monday week Gee wiz. What more do you need as a player.

How much success has Adams seen at AFL level... Gees he loves media street.

[ILLDieADemon 804]

I can see this being a very close game as there is a lot on the line for both teams.

If we get Spencer back in the ruck I will feel a lot more confidant going into the game.

Hopfully we get the chocolates 

[Deemented Are Go! 3,684]

Jeez, my stomach is already knotting up like game day...still 8 days to get through! 

Must. Crush. Filth. 

[Redleg 41,599]

Fair bit of upside for us this week.

Pies return from Perth with injuries.

Salem back in, which will improve our disposal.  Maybe Hogan back  too.

Hunt should be better than last week and Tom Mac would have to be. Lewis's first half last week was diabolical and he should improve. Melksham found some form. Hannan continues to improve, Wagner too. Petracca had a poor one and will have a big crowd to lift him. 

It is effectively an 8 point game, so a win to us could kill off the Pies.
We are back at the G even though we haven't played well there this year, so something to prove there as well.
