It’s either that or our game is now more transparent… 🤷‍♂️😊

The dees must have missed that memo.

For example bb is simultaneously a chance if being selected and having his leg amputated.

    I'm guessing Coll applied for an extension given the illness at the club. 

    Not much point listing the team on a Friday or Saturday if there are lots of changes come Sunday/Monday.

    Other than supporter interest it probably doesn't matter much when teams are published.

    I can't stand tom Morris.

    One, his voice shots me.

    Two, he is clueless about football and can't separate gossip with an analysis of the game.

    Constantly looking for the controversial take that create noise.

    So that knocks out another media optioon- tbe Sunday footy preview or whatever it is called on sen, because it is now co hosted by Morris- in addition to him being on the Saturday crunch time.

    Insufferable.

    LOl!  They are a guessing game at the best of times!!

    The bookies might be a bit more interested but who cares about them...


    If we can't get 'em Monday we'll never get 'em.
    With half their best players missing a win for us will mean nothing more than the 4pts.
    A loss would be humiliating.

    Assuming Adam Tomlinson plays tomorrow - Hibberd for Bowey the change, he has a great opportunity to establish himself with May and Lever and put himself in the frame for an elusive flag.  He has the trial by fire with McKay, Cox/Mihocek then Hawkins/Cameron but if he can weather the storm then he can put MFC and himself in a great position.

    100%
    If he finds his early 2021 form, it not only gives him a chance to get the flag he is after, it solves many of our problems as it will allow Petty to play forward. 
    It really makes us a better side if he can fill that second tall role and allow Lever to play third tall interceptor.

    The potential outs for Collingwood are frustrating. Only because a win means…

    ”Demons get the wood over depleted Pies”

    (despite us having four of our ‘21 GF players out through injury)

    Or in the case of a loss..

    ”Classy Pies have the tools to dig deep”

    I dont care how they sell it....  how they package it....

    The scoreboard will show a win....and a win is 4pts.  

    That's all we need to concern ourselves with.

    Everything else is irrelevant. 

    4pts to us is 4pts not to them.. Finito

    Yep and we have Oliver, Petty, Tom Mac, BBB and Bowey.

    I would say we have more important players out, our best mid and all 3 experienced key forwards.

    J Daicos, Cox, N Daicos and Maynard all have apparently trained this weekend.

    So all the speculation about them missing games due to colds/COVID will probably be unfounded.

    true… but let’s not forget we’re also missing Oliver, Petty, Bowie and you could add tmac and / or brown to that. yes they’re looking like missing more but we are not full rat power either.

    Lipinski is said to be playing - his first game this year at any level so very much lacking match practice.

    Mc Stay also said to be playing - hasn't played for two months.

    They may not miss this game but that is 8 players that will be missing or not in tip top shape.

     

    It will be seriously depleted of talent, experience and form.  All this must affect their system and fast ball movement.  There should be lots of turnovers by them.

    And too much will be left to too few.

    When you put it like that, it’s fair to say that Collingwood will never be as gettable all year as they will be tomorrow.

    Whether we can take full advantage of it is another matter.

    Collingwood have been average the last three weeks. They beat Carlton easily on the scoreboard but inaccurate kicking cost Carlton, should have been a lot lot closer. North got within 5 goals or thereabouts and West Coast were only two goals down at one stage in the third quarter. They’re just going along and are tired. I think they’ll drop a few games now, including tomorrow. There are no excuses from us.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
