IMO No mono.

Has anyone been dragged at ¾ time to suggest they may be emergency tomorrow, or are there three missing out on a run just in case?

Tomlinson would have no opponent tomorrow, we need to go smaller and quicker down back or the Pies random forwardline will destroy us. 

Woey comes in for a full game, he's been a sub for too long, so if he wasn't going to start, he needed to be dropped to get some match fitness in.

I'm confused as to why Ben Brown is rucking when we have verrall and fullarton playing

Yes it's called using your Peripheral vision everyone's got it you have to know what's around you.

BBB marks and goals - his second.

Yea. Sounds strange.  Battering a frail old man around in the ruck when there are two able bodied youngsters is just weird.  

Kolt looking the goods

Pies get two in a row but Dees still lead by 39 points.

It seems Verrall has his calf strapped and Fullarton is being given more time in the ruck. BBB sharing the load. 

Good mark and goal from Kentfield

Luker Kentfield gets his second on debut.

Collingwood can’t miss whenever they go forward.

McAdam showing he would have benefited from a few more weeks at Casey.

Good game from him today without ripping it open

Kentfield looks taller than Jefferson... but that could be because he hunches over

Debutant Eddie King from Wesley College goals on the run.

Needs a 3-4 week block at Casey in my view to build some confidence in his body

 

McAdam gets his fourth quickly followed up with one to Fullarton.

115 - 57.

Umpire bouncing skills much better today

Lol, Adams first touch late in the 4th is a turnover leading to a Collingwood goal. 

Kolt looks like a future leader the way he gets around his teammates.

No need to have a crack at him mate. I've seen May miss a bucket load of short kicks.

Fewer better definitions of relief than seeing mcadam kick a set shot goal from 35m

I mean if you're going to have a first game its pretty far from bad. 

Tyler Edwards gets into the goals and Casey lead by 57 points.
