Increased security what a laugh, I have NOT been checked with wand detectors, stopped by security or anything at all this year. I've waltzed right in at both Marvel earlier this year and the G. For all the talk about upgrades, yadda, yadda, security is a disgrace. Anyone else had similar experiences?

My Dad's metal drink bottle sets off the alarm every week and he gets his bag checked as a result. I'm not sure what they would do if he just kept walking, as anyone with a concealed weapon would.

 

[censored] me, it’s taken me til today to stomach coming on here and thinking about footy, last week was just so so disappointing. Should’ve been a lock for a win and we didn’t turn up.

Can’t see this week being much better, Pies are going well and based on last week we aren’t. Had some hope after the run of wins but that’s gone now. (Interesting timing for the club to send me an email titled “HOPE” on tuesday, but it was just about drink bottles not actual hope for the season).

AJ out, I think it has to be JVR in. Jeffo kicked 5 yes but they were VFL goals, leads into space with no pressure etc, don’t get those chances at AFL level. He can’t go in the ruck either.

Will suck it up and go along but what used to be an exciting day (and meaningful as Dad got taken down by MND) is becoming a bit painful with arrogant, annoying pies fans and our losses.

Not sure why Jeffo has to lay tackles ..put pressure on for sure ..I mean Elliot kicked 5 goals and laid 2 tackles ...Jeffo kicked 5 & laid 1 …

Yes, just kick goals and not points, where you then hand the ball to the opposition, often for a 2 goal turn around.

We’ll win this. We’re coming nicely into our sweet spot. Pity about Viney but we can cover. I’d love to see Culley get a game and think his big body would be useful. I’ve little doubt we’ve set ourselves for this week. Expecting a solid crowd and a rapturous 6-8 renditions of our favourite song.

I’ve had the complete opposite, PF. At every single match I’ve been wanded and bag-checked. But yeah, so many people just waltz on in. However, I have a feeling this week will be different because Collingwood.

You recently won houses upon a profound belief.

Putting any up for this game ?.

 

Seems that rain is likely. Not sure we have played a game this year in the rain?

If it starts sliding off the side of our boots we’ll no doubt kick a lot straighter!

Round 1 v Giants was torrential at times. Rain won’t hurt our already atrocious goal kicking, but it won’t help either

apparently a serious footy club these days is a club that has won ONE flag in 150 years by one point with 30 second left😑😑

I hope the club has a word to the AFL and asks for this to never happen again. 4 weekends of no MFC footy in VIC is awful scheduling by the AFL.

The pay off is that our last 7 games are in Melbourne but the scheduling is so uneven.

Playing out of melbourne in the depths of winter maybe isn't such a bad thing

I cannot fathom how we've been dealt 3 interstate matches in a row.

God, I would do anything to humble these [censored]. Wore my premiership cap (worn backwards) to pick up the Switch 2 this morning and this filth fan behind me tapped me on the shoulder and said “see you on Monday, chump”

Tongue in cheek, but who knows. Scum fans, scum players, scum club and they always seem to experience the good stuff year in year out. Goes to show that not all good things happen to good people.

Bloody sickening to see them on the up on the regular. They are getting too big headed for my liking.

Limit the Daicos’s, check Pendles and Sidepart and we’re away. I’m quietly confident that we’ll win this week.

Off topic but does anyone know why Jeffo's nickname is 'the magician'?

im glass half empty this week. We rarely beat Collingwood. I think the last win I went to against them was when Brent Grgic kicked a late winner. Will see yall on Monday, not looking forward to those feckless fans.

McVee seems to get these types

Out : Lever, Laurie, AJ (susp)

In : TMac, Viney, JVR

but really - just as long as Lever has spell at Casey

Lever needs to be played across the backline in a utility role, entering the melee and/or to firstly intercept and secondly to feed upfield a little in space, thus beginning a chain of clearances into a scoring zone. He needs to also avoid a static position, peeling off and far to re-enter the challenges with some pace and selective angles best suited to his sound reading of the flight of the ball. If he is in a position to be bumped off the ball, he will be bumped off the ball, he is lightly framed and it will be too late to enact a recovery.

Can make himself disappear from games

On a side note, the G could be in very poor shape by Monday. Monday will be the third match played on the ground in as many days. The forecast is for rain every day this weekend, and again on Monday. I imagine that it'll be pretty chewed up by Monday. Will any player bother to wear proper stops? Or are we at the point where all players now just wear the moulded soles?

Nup. I Believe it may have given to him when playing school footy, can conjour goals magically, something like that!

If you’re coming to Fed. Square for the Walk to the ‘G (commencing at 12:15pm) and/or the entertainment and partner giveaways (commencing at 10am)…

Be sure to visit the Demon Army tent for a snag in bread (with or without onions) or a delicious homemade Big Freeze cupcake! Or both! 😃 We’ll also have water and soft drinks for sale. We accept cash and card.

This is by far and away our biggest fundraiser for the year and we’re hoping the predicted cold and wet weather won’t keep folks away (PS: footy is a winter sport 😉)

Shoutout to Coles who've again very kindly given us $1000 to cover all our costs meaning every last cent we make goes to Fight MND.

Please come to our tent for deliciousness. We serve sooooo many Collingwood fans, it would be nice to have some customers I’m not rude to. 😅 JK. This is the one time I welcome the ferals, because Neale 💕

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • CASEY: Collingwood

    It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
    The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
    Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
