Callum Brown with two goals, 1 behind, and one Maynard in the face. Good day out.

I’ve never seen a player as injured or cramped as Diacos being asked to play on especially the game is over

Either manage his hydration in the first place or take him off

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,830]

There is just no regeneration at the Glasshouse, they really are in for some pain.

We are in trouble next week.

FFS you just know Brown and Cadman will be marking everything next week 

[DubDee 26,681]

Giants missing their 2 best players in Green and Hogan. Their ruckman goes down with concussion. Also missing Stringer Ricardi  etc

and they have walked all over the Pies

Fatigue in their first game being the reason is embarrassing and hilarious

Interesting to see how we go next week will be a good barometer … not watching the game today but are the conditions impacting or is GWS much better?

GWS have moved to 3rd favourite on Betfair.
$7 Hawthorn
$7.40 Brisbane
$7.60 GWS

Round 1 form is always overrated.  Get on the Dees for next week!

It’s always a good weekend when Collingwood lose

Running over the top of the Pies, fast movement out of stoppages, better ball movement, running defensively, defending as a unit.

We are pushing 💩 up a hill for next week.

[640MD 3,570]

Better start than last year

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,510]

I’ve clearly missed something, the Pies were so slick against the Tigers two weeks ago.

Watch the minute of play at about 8 minutes(of play) from the end. The run-down tackle on Membrey in the goal-square, followed by an end to end goal for GWS.

Story of the day.

Collingwood will make noises about fatigue (lol) and their kicking (their own fault - failure to get to good positions or create space and time for clean shots) but in the end GWS have been too fast, too skillful, and too energetic.

Could have been even worse but a couple of GWS tall forwards got the jitters with a few marks they should have taken.

I could get a kick against the Tigers

[Newport34 392]

Collingwood +20 contested possessions, +4 clearances, lost by 52 points. 

[sue 9,277]

GWS keen to poke the ball to teammate rather than take possession

And 1 more inside 50s

Quick recap. 

Collingwood have traded their 2025 first round pick to Gold Coast.

If they're cooked, they're very, very cooked.

 

 

[Sydee 4,684]

Just back from watching live

Collingwood look pretty slow - yeah it was hot but I think there are too many plodders to take on the likes of GWS or Hawks, Freo 

Really impressed by Finn OCallahan wow he can run

Sam Taylor is a gem 

Darcy Jones is a very handy small 

They will be a very good test for our boys next week make no mistake 

As for the pies I know it’s only opening round but I think they will struggle to play finals - their future doesn’t look that bright to me - hopefully I’m right 😀

[DubDee 26,681]

I hear they are auctioning off the boot that smacked Maynard in the face

First bid, $10,000

Any coincidence GWS dominating the end of both quarters - superior fitness?

It eventually climaxed in the last quarter.

Pies are top 4 after round 0

Admittedly I am not a high performance coach but I would have given Daics a Gatorade prior to game
