Rivers plays HB or mid, no universe he gets played at HF.

I've changed my mind again on these team changes, before Howes concussion we trusted him to be our 3rd key tall and he deserves the same opportunity again. In: Howes, May, Spargo/Billings Out: TMAC, Lever, Sparrow

Out: Sparrow, Lever In: Spargo/Billings, May OR Out: Sparrow, Lever In: Howes, May Howes can free up Lindsay to play on the wing

😘 enjoy the win mate

Exactly, he consistently lands in the top 3 for work rate in defence. If people want to see a stand out trait, it's that.

That kick to Melk made me drool. His gut run to spoil (3rd quarter?) was also exceptional. 3 goal assists, 9 score involvements, 500m gained. Seriously good.

The kid had an injury that kept him out for 12 weeks. I will hold on passing judgement until he has a full preseason or two under his belt. Was nibs doing this in his 2nd year? Bit of a revisionist history IMO. He certainly stood out with his work rate, but his disposal used to be horrendous and he was incredibly fumbly.

The main changes I would make would be to send off Radford/Jones and recruit a genuine, experienced midfield and tactics coach. We really appointed these two out of necessity as no other assistant coach was available IMO. With the cap, left over I'm recruiting a new goal kicking and skills coach, leaving Choco as just a dev coach.

Windsor is interesting. He was dropped, went to Casey to play midfield. Playing at HB wasn't working, I hope he comes back to the 1s in a new role.

McVee has a very high ceiling. He is not a 'lockdown' defender exclusively. Half back is now one of the most important positions on the ground as a lot of scoring relies on good ball use out of the back half. He is a great runner, moves well through traffic and is a good kick. We would be extremely unlucky to lose him off the back of this all around terrible year, where he is struggled to build fitness and form off the back of an interrupted pre-season.

I dont disagree that we need a shake up in the football department, but Judd is our only best 22 player OOC. The majority of our young talent is contracted.

Took some marks on the lead Nailed his scoring opportunities Kicked well inside 50 More of this please from Rooey

Lever's ankles are made of glass

JVR has shown nice kicking inside 50 in the VFL, looking good by foot today as well

Lever/TMAC is trickery In: Adams, JVR Out: Howes, Petty Sub is rotated between Billings/Sharp/Kolt

Have a flower, maybe you will have one positive opinion soon

https://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/1819031 Roan Steele to debut

Don't blame your defenders when the GC midfield is getting 0 pressure

Nice to see Jeffo working into this game

Petts, he is not a forward, but we just have to compete at a minimum. Hard work gets the reward.

We are storming home in the 4th

Can't say Roo is having a great game but he's shown some nice kicking inside 50, two nice goal assists this quarter

Nice goal from Rooey, worked hard to make it happen

Casey has 0 small forwards or natural crumbers Mentha could be that guy but seems like more of an outside rebounder type Serious small forward recruitment drive needed

Casey captain as well, really not up to it
