Exactly. This has been evident all year if people had actually paid attention to watching Collingwood.

Yet is rated for above average for inside marks going at 2.4. There's where he mostly does his work when his using his work rate and running ability to work his opponent up and down. Rivers is not there to do a complete lock down role. That simply tales away his game of rebounding and playing that quarter back role.

Are you serious? Mihocek is their main focal point up forward and putting Rivers on him would be a disaster because he'll easily out body him one on one and that's not a swipe at Rivers, that's just Mihoceks strengths. May played on Mihocek last time and always gets the number 1 defender because he's a genuine key forward. By your reckoning here, Tex Walker is also 192cm tall as well and you would never in the world put a Hibberd or Rivers on him

Agree. We've unfortunately taken away our strengths. Collingwood have bene vocal that they'll target and tag Lever which then leaves May as the only tall trying to do the grunt work. We've finally found a defensive structure that has clicked well with the 3 talls. Our defensive numbers improved this year thr moment we implemented the 3rd tall mid way through the year.

Mihocek

They'll use Cox as the resting tall up forward. Smith is not a backman. Gets completely lost down there and this has been very evident.

Reverting back to Lever and May being our only 2 talls against a forward line that has 3 talls. This defensive structure has not worked this year.

Sheesh brutal call on Noble. He's usually the one setting them up off half back with his speed and kicking.

Thr last time we used Spargo as a sub was against Geelong in the rain and he was absolute pox. Laurie or Smith thanks.

For the benefit of his career then yes, it's the right decision.

He's not selected.

Based on your observations do we think it's only going to be the one change only with McDonald for Melksham?

How's he moving?

Goodwin has always been about whole team mentality attitude. Think back to when we took the whole squad to Perth back in 2021.

Hibberd?

Times like this I hate living interstate. Enjoy everyone! Training updates would be greatly appreciated.

I'm reluctant to believe someone that was shouting all year that the Petty forward experiment would be a complete failure and would never work..

Lol taking word of a GC nuffie supporter off bigfooty. It's no different to some of thr comments written here about MJ. I find your comments strange about him "struggling to get his hands on the footy" last year at VFL level when clearly according to his VFL stats he had a number of games where he had over 20 plus disposals and mostly averaging mid to high teens. He also had a number of games where he took some high number of marks one which included 13 marks against Geelong. So remind me, which part does it look like he's struggling to get his hands on the footy?

Full game. He's been sub twice since then
