2 in a row 7 to robbo, how sweet it is to beat the filfth

big wraps to neitz the true captain who came back on

legend

 

Don't forget about Ben Holland - has Rocca's measure.

Well done ND - you deserve that big smile

can someone please post the thread for collingwood's unofficial web site. I need to see what they post.

 

Very good win although it was disappointing we didn't give them an absolute hiding after that dominant 1st term.

Couple of observations -

Ward - his disposal is crap and I think its a travesty that he gets a game in front of CJ. To his credit though, in the 2nd half he played some good man-on-man footy and didn't turn it over quite so much

Frawley - doesn't offer the team really aything at all at this stage and should be developed at Sandy. He's not up to AFL standard by a long shot. Lost count of the number of times he was run down from behind. He appears slow both in pace and his decision making.

Bruce - Where do I start, the guy is a Flake of the highest order and despite his BOG antics of last week, turns in such a shocking effort today that it boggles the mind. If this guy is made captain in front of McLean I'll be livid.

McLean - a gun pure and simple and so important to the team.

Jones - a future superstar

McDonald - the cosumate pro, very valuable to the team.

Robbo - a star and a showman

Petterd - doesn't have enough penetration in his kicking yet, but looks the goods at AFL level (unlike Frawley at this stage)

Davey - becoming a close runner-up to Bruce in flakiness. Had a down day.

PJ - good luck trying to win your spot back in the team Jamar.

and finally

Wheatley - more of that for the rest of your career please. Played fantastically.

A great win. I reckon we've got a chance at winning the next 2 at least and setting up for a tilt at 8th spot by season's end.


Holland- made rocca look like a clown

That he did....awesome job but lucky not to give away about 4 frees.

The Melbourne Football Club- Proud owners of Collingwood since 2004! :D

There is nothing better than beating those filthy, whingy Pies.

McLean, Bell, Jones, Sylvia, Ricky and Bate. They are the future of this club, and they leave me very very confident of the future.

Brock McLean is just.... words cannot describe his awesomeness!!!

 

I actually thought Frawley was quite good today, I'm happy for him to stay in the team

Bruce's disposal was absolutely shocking, embarassing. Why the hell would play him forward? I'd trust my grandmother more in front of goal

Bate was terrific, can't see Miller getting that CHF position back any time

Of course Robbo was a star and I love him. :wub:

Godfrey's right foot goal was the highlight, can someone please put it on youtube?

It sure was sweet looking at the filth's faces after the game :D


I really like Jone's style of play. No I love it. He's hard at the footy and has a good footy brain.

I thought Frawley did well and we must persist with him.

It's a shame that Petterd's kicking today was poor, because he does everything else so well.

Jonesy and Brock are the perfect midfield duo. Nothing better than seeing Jonesy dive onto a pack and feed it out to McLean.

But my favourite goal of the day was when Sylvia took them on and kicked it to Bater who kicked the long goal. That was awesome.

people should understand....

Frawley will not be good next season unless he plays this season. tall defenders need experience!

we know he is tall and quick...he will get stronger and make better decisions by playing games!

keep him in the side.

But my favourite goal of the day was when Sylvia took them on and kicked it to Bater who kicked the long goal. That was awesome.

it was awesome, loved it.

perfect example of those two playing at their aggressive best

first right foot goal for him according to walls

first right foot goal for him according to walls

:lol: I'm sure he just made that up.

It's probably true though, if Matthew Lloyd can kick one on his right anything is possible...

Nup! Wrong again Walls, second right footer by Godders this year. Just like the Bozo was wrong when analysing frees against Rocca after the delayed replay. It was obvious in two of the 'contentious' frees against Rocca that he had a fist full of Holland's jumper trying to hold him off when in front, but Walls is blind to the bleeding obvious!

you read my mind waynewussell. maybe its time wallsy hangs up his boots as a commentator cause he is crap a tateer as he was a coach. Why don't you have a crack at it next year. It would be great to have some sensible comments during a match

mclean = Melbourne Football Club

bate was awesome

robbo a star (but it should have been 8 :P )

neitz was influencial

so many good points

we won when we butchered the ball quite a bit

bruce's kicking was poor, green was quietish today but stood up in the last quarter when it was required

ward is still terrible with his kicking

davey had a shocking day with his kicking

but we beat the filth and we can do it again come round 21!


who was on thomas, it was bell wasnt it ?

cos thomas was barely seen

I think Bell was on Didak most of the day and did pretty well on him to. Don't know who was on Thomas. I don't want to sound pedantic, but to the guy who said we need to play Frawley the rest of the season so he's primed for next year, by the same logic do you believe we should play Newton as well?

I think its grossly unfair on Newton that Frawley can get a run in the team when he clearly isn't ready and Newton has been in good form at Sandy and done plenty of development.

Danners baffles me at times.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
