The Run Home
We will be making up numbers & go out in straight sets or not even make the 8, current trend mirrors last year fade out & getting worse, likely to lose our next 2 games. The issues around a flawed game plan are real, our small fwds are non existent, and our best tall is a 20yo @ Casey ! Pickett has lost form badly & Gawn looks like he’s not enjoying himself , something is miss more than game plan I’d say culturally atm

The Run Home
Loses against saints & lions is on the cards, may struggle to make the 8, will be a huge fall from grace if so, body language of Gawn just isn’t right, hope I’m wrong

Petracca’s goalkicking
He’s a great player no question, but he’s field kicking today was terrible & he’s game overall hasn’t been polished, needs to get more mongrel in him

POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs GWS
Skill level was deplorable & kicking .., Trac kicking continued to get worse, Hunter kicking is a joke as kicks it straight to the opposition & has done so all season, fwd 50 entries are a joke , going long to Brown in wet conditions, honestly how dumb is that! The ball just kept coming out of their backline it’s so Frustrating watching dumb entries

POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs GWS
Don’t deserve to make top 4 perhaps even finals & such a typical melb list , we have gone backwards & I fear a cliff is coming! continue to sell games mfc to play for 4 points in a suburban ground .. don’t see Collingwood doing this, but as long as we can help a community the 4 points mean jack !

The Fixture
Spot on there is no way the Pies would except this & playing 3 away games in a row!

The Fixture
How does our club continue to get these clumsy fixture after winning a flag we still get drawn to play away against the Cats which makes it 3 games since our home game in early 2021! then followed by a home game in Alice Springs then a game @ Marvel , that’s 3 away games. Understanding the club has contracts in the Alice & was done when the club had sever finance issues but this 3 week period is so tricky & BS when see the Pies maximising to play as many games at the G!

- 'Dump kicks into the 50'
Has Goody been asked the Petty decision to play him as a defender when he was playing fwd before his injury???- 'Dump kicks into the 50'
Either we have dumb players or our coach’s strategy is dumb.We continue to win the ball then blow it with dumb entries.., will this group be the biggest waste of talent to not win any more flags?- Collingwood at Kardinia Park
So the Afl are running a comp based on negotiated deals with individual clubs, what a joke- Collingwood at Kardinia Park
The reality can’t play each other twice so very simple one season you play home & the next away.. Cats have every right to play home games even host finals with new increased capacity.- Collingwood at Kardinia Park
Compromised draw to meet contracts with the MCG on x amount of games, tv ratings all come first vs integrity of the competition. As mentioned cats play the pies twice ay the G for supposedly more people get to see the game then the cats want a make up game at home and make us play there in a stadium that’s not completed and are ok with less people able to attend to watch the last 2 premiers whilst the mcg was vacant, why isn’t ok for less people to attend to watch cats vs the pies at gmhba but it’s ok if its melb??? You don’t have thus happening in the EPL or any other National comps globally! What is so hard for the afl to have a draw with one season home & the next away??? How is there any integrity in the AFL when they develop a fixture doing individual deals to appease individual clubs then give scraps to smaller clubs Our Club needs to stop selling home games & possible 4 points as once again our draw will see us play away for 3 weeks in a row with Gmhba, NT, Marvel, I’m sure Pert is a strong negotiator but about time our club started getting more than just scraps- The Fixture
No excuses but Afl has made us play our last 3 games at Geelong since playing at the G in 2921 , when do the Cats ever lose their home ground advantage playing us?? So our fixture selling a game to play in NT is now a neutral ground vs GWS & give up home ground … this is 4 points are we not passed the $$$ issue so this 3 week block is basically playing away gmhba, nt, marvel Still can’t understand the complexities of the AfL ad why they can’t have teams playing 1 season home & next away- CASEY: Rd 14 vs Geelong
Fwd line needs a shake up badly , bring in BB, Sache , melksham , … why bowey wasn’t played as would have been great in the wet. Though I don’t see Goodwin making so many changes, but just having Smith & Jvr want yeild us a flag- POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs Geelong
We are forever grateful as he’s our premiership drought breaking coach… development & recruiting from Jason Taylor excellent but look at our fwd line & understanding personnel with injuries to Bb & Tmac we only have a 20y JVR who is doing fine considering his youth etc..club Ned’s to capitalise on the premiership window & we haven’t been able to recruit a great n fwd.. all of our smalls not playing well & continue to bomb it in - 'Dump kicks into the 50'
