Definitely annoyed. Possibly even annoyance awareness.

Low grade annoyance?

Tightness sin his annoyance?

My diagnosis is a mild case of exasperation.

Grumpy Gary Baker avatar tells me he will be fine to play.

And that is is his constant state

    If Preuss is injured but Gawn is fit, I guess Gawn can just about cover the loss of Preuss...

    Anyone know if Austin Bradtke played in the scratch match vs Pies?

    I believe he has been playing but I can’t see them playing him

    The Dees ruckman, who played his first game of the season last weekend, is expected to recover in time for the clash with the Western Bulldogs, but will be monitored throughout the next few days.

    Max Gawn is also set to face a fitness test in the lead up to Round 13, hoping to return from a knee injury.

    An earlier twitter post by Ayrton Woolley:

    Scans later today for Braydon Preuss. A “tweak” of hip/groin according to club. Not ruled out just yet, but he didn’t look happy.
    Dees positive on Gawn progress after big running session. @9NewsMelb
     
    Doesn't sound like it is wrist slashing time!
    If nothing else it will keep bulldogs guessing.

    sounds like something a pre game injection should fix if necessary

    Not sure having no ruck is such a bad thing for this Saturday. Forecast up here is for 45k winds Saturday. It will be worse than a wet day with ball on ground most of time.

    Yep.  The winds started here around lunch time, and are forecast to get stronger each day from now until Saturday, when they are forecast to be the strongest all year!  Just got my tickets.  Might have to take an anchor to hold me to my seat!

    i hate wind games......hope the forecast is wrong

    I reckon, if Gawn, Preuss, and Tim English are out of the game, Dees and The Bullies should nominate Daniel and Spargo as the ruckmen

    Seems odd to me, the fuss made about Collingwood's 4 games in 14 days.

    It was also our fourth game in 16 days and fifth game in 20 days.

    And the fact that Geelong flogged St Kilda on a Monday and backed it up with another flogging over Port on the Friday.

    Geelong has ruined that excuse for everyone now.

    Mitch Brown, come on down!

    Can't play ruck or key position forward if they were to use Tommy. Brown is a very tall HFF.

    Have to remember that Hannan wasn’t dropped, he was out due to illness 

    He was good against North and I think he’ll return for Sparrow or possibly Kozzy

    Jon Ralph indicated he would've been dropped regardless of being ill.

    We finally start to get on a roll and lose all our rucks.  We are the Shakespearean tragedy that never ends.

    Let’s hope it’s much ado about nothing

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
