NON-MFC: Rd 01 2023

[Big Col 1,319]

Book your seats for Kings Birthday this year!

[Nairobi_Demon 335]

Cats can’t get it into their fwd line at all, Pies helped by favourable umpire decisions on around their half back, but gee the Pies play fast 

[Wodjathefirst 2,625]

I could only listen to the game. In my opinion Collingwood is a serious contender this year.  I hope I can say the same for the mighty Dees around this time tomorrow night. GO DEES!!!

[Demonland 70,251]

Now Cats can’t buy a goal. 

[WalkingCivilWar 39,256]

Watching the cricket now. Can’t stand seeing Collingwood fans happy.

Did you seriously downplay the Pies for this season, layz?

Most I know were predicting at least top 4 ... they are probably the most skilled team in the league and are getting better

The Kings Birthday clash will be an absolute ripper.  But who starts favourite? 

I had them in the 8 Macca. Great unit across the board and I think their back 6 is among the best but they still have a lot of their best players over 30. Not sold on Cameron holding down the ruck spot for a whole season yet.

Good side but was expecting a step back this year.

About time...

[Jaded No More 67,629]

Pies will be a real threat this year. We already can’t beat them at the best of times…

[Demonland 70,251]

1.6 since they were 15.1

[YearOfTheDees 3,263]

They need three in a minute and no team could do that. Hang on maybe one could.

[McQueen 17,864]

They deserve the win. 
 

better team all night save for Geelongs superior scoring accuracy.

They were 16.1 and kicked 6 points after.

Scott thought he could beat them in a shoot out. Next time they play you can bet they’ll play that horrible slow keeping’s off stuff instead.

Their run last year was tremendous.  Their ball movement from half back through the middle and into their forward line is something a lot of other teams can learn from.  Precision skills

And they are quick   The Daicos lads don't get tackled (for instance) ... just like their old man!

They are a team we need to get past if we're going to salute

Mark my words, we beat the filth this year we win it all.

I am feeling filthy but.... How good to see Jeelong implode!!! Reminds me of R23 2021 😂😂😂

[McQueen 17,864]

So without kicking a ball in anger yet we’re now equal premiership favourites on Sportsbet and TAB.

Don't want to sound rude but Idgaf what odds we are.

Odds change by the amount of money people put down, doesn't mean [censored]

So we have to travel twice in our first month but the pies get Port at the G next week.

There draw will get them top 4

[GBDee 352]

Not sure if UK bookies follow their Aussie counterparts in setting their odds but I jumped on the Pies at 5.0 with the Cats just 3 goals up from fewer scoring shots. Feel dirty but that’s tomorrow’s beer paid for!

We've had our troubles with the Pies but we can beat them.  Don't ask me how, ask our coaches and our MC!

We're going to need a good plan as it's hard to get the ball off them when they're firing.  And a lot of their scoring opportunities emanate from half back with continuous possession

It seems I have greater faith than you in the Dees. I base this on knowing that we learnt much over the past few years.

For instance: how to beat Geelong when it mattered after countless painful losses: round 23, 2021 to take the minor premiership. Smashed them in the Prelim 2021 also. Won the Premiership in 2021. Apply the same to all comers this year including Pies and with ordinary luck/injuries and we'll have every chance to take anybody anytime.

Bring on Kings Birthday. I can't wait to see the Dees take the Pies on.
