Hipwood set up that goal taking a risk from half back

 

Now that was touched!

 

Assuming we beat Hawthorn we basically need to tank the last game against Sydney.

Pies don’t look fit. They’ve run out of legs again. 
Surely they’re not loading now 

A penny for your thoughts @binman

Brisbane look alright but how serious are the Pies?

This isn't Collingwood's best by any stretch

Port should have Freo and Richmond covered. Brisbane win and we can just about lock in 4th

So you think they aren’t trying two weeks out from finals? Rubbish. 
They have nothing in the tank. Not even the air of invisibility that they had a month back.

1st or 2nd is the same yeah? So the Pies have very little incentive to go all out (De Goey rested etc) ... and that includes against the Don's next Friday

But we can't be sure of any result including tonight

Port will probably win their last 2 but if we knew that for sure, we could make a lot of money

We beat the Hawks and then rest our best players against Sydney (why risk injury?) ... 4th place and then launch

 

Remind me to not go on here next week when the 'IS RESTING PLAYERS RISKING FORM?' debate starts. I already avoid any posts that mention 'loading' on either side of that debate, haha

Collingwood are going down like flies so I think I need to accept that Brisbane are going to win. Murphy looks like he's out so Collingwood losing to the DONS looks like a real possibility.

Collingwood are a bunch of no hopers that can't get off their butts to get a job right now.

Murphy looks very dejected. If him and Moore aren’t fit they basically have a backline of flankers.

Yet Howe's still forward

And I wonder what Michael Christian will say about the dump tackle by McCreery?  Remind me who did Christian play for??    PS: was anything said about the one on Rivers late last week? Or was the Carlton exemption card played?

Was curious too whether Rivers’ perpetrator was cited. But looking on AFL app I couldn’t find anything. Obviously the no injury - no case to answer……

If it was the earlier rounds both would’ve received a week…..but somehow the rules change

Insanity. We need to pump Hawthorn and Sydney by 60 points and go into September flying.


Pies are horrific.

Further to my last post, the way Collingwood are playing tonight, they’re just as likely to lose to Essendon next week (who always rise to the occasion of that matchup) which would mean Brisbane would finish 1st. Finishing 4th and playing them first up, then Carlton if we lost, a disaster

If the cocky Pies drop the last game of the season top spot will be gone.

Lucky for them they play Essendon. No chance.

Good night top 2.

Too many silly losses through to early July have cost us, when we went in as clear $1.20 favourites. 

Yep

GWS

Freo

Carlton

any others ?

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
