GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

[DemonWheels 1,114]

Understand they’ve got a few important players out but their starting 18 still looks threatening, albeit dropping away in quality on the interchange.

Based on our last 5 weeks I see no reason for any confidence whatsoever. Just hope we turn up and silence their likely dominant crowd early on, and build into the game from there.

Well the stats don’t lie. To me, there is an attitudinal issue at the club. Just not prepared to work to the level required. You could probably come up with a few reasons why that is, off field issues, staffing issues (coaching), fitness maybe. Other than Gawn, Petracca and McVee, the rest (first year players excluded) have gone backwards.

No I don't think he did. You suggested a source very close to the players, and the best 'elaboration' you offered was the stats don't lie, and your opinion.

I agree in that the stats don't lie, but this isn't elaborating on the issues that you claim are there and that you have inside information on.

Can any gamblers offer insight why the Dees have come in so strongly in the last 12 hours? 
 

Do the professional punters have some insider info or is it all sentiment? @binman

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

I want us win today and I want us win big, but I can't help but think that only opens up another issue "why today".

I was elaborating (offering my opinion) on what Jaded No More said that we had bigger issues if it was the case that the players cracked the sads  because of the accom and facilities. I can assure you that this is what the source said. You can either believe it or not. I do.

Your source is as dumb AF to offer that as an excuse. Sounds like the sort of mischievous rumour a pies supporter would start.

Love this place when people come in to offer some insight whether that's through their sources or whatever and get absolutely smashed for passing on information. 

Classic Demonland.

It will be very interesting to see how the players approach this game from an attitude perspective. I know last week they weren’t happy about the standard of accommodation and ground facilities (maybe sending a message to the club?), and played accordingly. Unprofessional you could argue. Another mediocre performance today, and it will be time to change something.

I heard they saw this article and responded to the club accordingly

Continuing to come in. $1.75 now.

My opinion, sentiment wouldn’t move the market that much. I did see we were as much as $2.05.

Not a gambler but noticed just now Dee's firming still. 

Fascinating

Depends on the quality of information.

Is it just me or is there a paucity of snow-related humour since the Coodabeens went the way of The Kevin Dennis Football show?

General feeling is Demons will bounce back. 

Also Pies missing 4 main fwds and 3 of their top 5 mids. who will score their goals?

no insider info imo

A pies supporter wouldn’t be that clever

Even money odds the difference is only 3.5 points.  That difference does not in any shape or form look at 1.75. To 2.08. The sims do not work.  
less than a goal. Yes it could be that close 

but MFCSS. Says no
