Two Bites at the Cherry

Recommended Posts

Well as we savour the gloriously aromatic air of a win our eyes will soom turn to Monday week and a meet with the Filth !!

for the first time in ...well cant remember....we will actually meet with this vermin twice in a year.

Like it or not they...that supposed rabble of wobblies are actually one of the better teams taking to the turf this season. Yesterdays success whilst glorious , to me, isnt really a true indication of whther we are suddenly remembering what to do as much as the collision of many factors. The Crows simply Dissed us to begin Im sure, then hit by injuries they had limited abiloity to retort. BUT they nearly did.

There is probably no match on anyones calender that you look forward to quite as much as Dees / Pies game. Micky Mouse will have been watching the tapes and checkig his list and checking it twice.

I have thought all year that irrespective of form that this ought to be a cracker of a game. Some good matchups and for mine more importantly no glaring mismatches. If nothing much more should come of this season a win on QB wil be some consolation. Then later...we can do it all over agian :lol:

roll on QB..

go Dees

The only thing better than beating Collingwood once...beating them twice!

Collingwood has the form so we will be underdogs for the first time in a few years but I reckon we will be capable of giving them more than a few headaches with the team and effort we had yesterday.

Adelaide were missing - Biglands, Bode, Burton, Hentschel, (and Reilly and Perrie during the game)

We were missing - Bartram, Whelan, Rivers, Pickett, Moloney, Yze, Miller (not sure if that puts us at a disadvantage tho)

Adelaide weren't missing many and we are still missing some - it was a pretty good win. The only reason Adelaide even got close was because we were so scared of losing and went into our shells.

Freo are terrible this year. Collingwood's other wins have been against Kang (very lucky), Rich, Ess, Adel (AAMI), Carl and Bris. They are beating the sides they should beat, but nothing particularly outstanding. Losses to WB, WCE, Port.

I'm quietly confident. Especially if we get Whelan and Yze back.

unless we play at 100% we will get smashed, we need to play one on one and pressure them all over the ground, when freo played off them the pies dominated but when freo played close the game got closer, we have to play hard intense football

Two bites of the cherry...................yum yum. :lol:

It should be a good game but I think we will have the advantage because Buckley he will 'twang' his hammy again in the LAST game of his career and Clement might not be back to push Robbo in the back all day again? :lol:

;)

My mate is a hardcore Pies fan that loves his footy

He is obviously ecstatic that the Pies are 7-3, but he told me that as soon as the opposition matches Collingwoods attack on the ball they will go down

So if we hit the ball hard and tackle like maniacs I think we should get up

geez i sure hope he does. i for one have never seen our backline play any better i reckon, and so with our premier small defender back into the team for the second biggest game of the home and away season, i'd love to see us shut them down completely. bell and he on didak and davis, yum!

Massive game, we aren't going anywhere this season but I'd love nothing more than to beat Collingwood (Twice).

Just as a question of interest, I was told BT on MMM made some comments that weren't taken too well by some Melbourne supporters (They were the ones who told me) after the game, not quite sure what they were about but if it was to do with the game this week I'd love to smash the Pies and rub it in that fat ****s face, he has always had bias against us (I'd love to smash Collingwood no matter what the situation).

frawley needs game time and was bloody good on the weekend, nothing would help him more than showing the same attack on such a big stage. whelan would play essentially ward's role, but tighter and better. therefore ward for whelan seems a direct swap

Read Jaded's post "I am f******* Melbourne". BT said that the MFC is pissweak, the Melbourne supporters are pissweak and the club has a culture where failure is accepted. Game up with all the original quotes about us heading to the snow in our 4wd, blah blah blah..... What a [censored]!!!!!!!!

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
