BAMF

Cal has a road to the draft podcast that I listened to awhile ago which had the Freo recruiter as a guest. He alluded that Mac had shot up into top 10 calculations.

Ha! You crack me up Werridee.

He has been great. Such a turnaround from 2019 where he had the majority of us tearing our hair out. I thought his game against West Coast was his best, but this was a fantastic game and is elevated due to the opposition and the occasion (Carlton and Gold Coast games were great too). . I think he still has the potential to overthink his decisions on occasion when he has time to think but he also has been nailing the majority instead of blazing away into forward 50 like he used to. There are still a few posters who view him as a bit of a whipping boy. They need to understand that form is temporary and players can change. You don't have to keep the same opinion that you did 3 years ago.

Hoping the Swans can come back. Would prefer GWS get eliminated

Maybe that's why there hasn't been any cases 🤔

You still get a discount for father son. Or are you referring to the good old days where a third rounder would do it?

People on here are downplaying Port. They are on tonight and I'm very glad we avoided this game. Geelong are looking ordinary due to the immense pressure being applied. Port have not stopped running all night.

What a sad [censored] world we now live in. Bloke gets injured in an explosion and the main concern is if it was his primary residence.

Why? There is certainly a number of people on here who share his opinion. It certainly is worthy of conversation. I am surprised that so many supporter admit that he does it and are fine with it. He throws his head back before contact is even made. I've given it to a number of other opposition players over the years for doing it and I absolutely hate it.

He ducks. I hate it every time he does it.

Smith played well on him last time they played. Smith was kissed on the [censored] by the umpires though. A lot of non calls went his way. It will be interesting to see if he goes to him again. If he does.. who does Petty play on? Should be a cracking game hopefully

Not quite the right post for the thread. But it nearly fits. What the [censored] is with the 'underground' handball? Underground... seriously?

'Season Ending Injury' 🤔 Did anyone watch the footage? Not much malice in it.

That should be a week.

I fail to see how we actually pulled that trade period off. I must be missing something. Welcome Georgia!

Come on... this isn't a Collingwood forum. Let's not wish injury on a player.

I just informed the club. They advised that they have been doing an average job before this point as they only wanted to get average results. They will double their efforts now that they have been formally challenged.

I loved it but i thought that we have had better wins Bulldogs, Brisbane, Swans were all better wins imo (in that order).

Our players worked so hard to give it to Viney who was in a better position only for Viney to throw it on the boot as quick as possible across his body. It was probably my only standout negative for the night.

Kev. No body is attacking you. You are entitled to your opinion. You might be right about Traccs lack of mental strength but we dont think this is a good example to use as evidence. The majority of people disagree with you and think you are reading too much from the plank thing. Post your opinions but be prepared for others to disagree with you and for them to do so in a humorous way if they choose.

Yeah... well we already had a go about Trac hating planks.

I for one have no problem with his playing style or skill level. The problem is that he is consistently injured or coming back from injury. He is rarely 100%. There will be a clear point where another player pushes him out because he is continually at 80%. That time is coming soon.

Yep. He has a habit of coming back far too underdone. I wonder if he convinces the coaching staff that he is ready when he really isnt. His come back in 2018 finals was legendary though...

Possibly the best verbal barb i've heard. In fact, i'm upset that you have said it as it's so good that it will no doubt go viral and now opposition players will actually say it to him. It's likely that he will drop his bundle and now we wont win a final. It might possibly go so far that he will have to retire at the end of the year. Thanks for ruining the season Kev. Good one.

I was listening to ABC radio pre-game. They listed the midfields and said GWS have a midfield on paper but will need to bring it to match us. I instantly thought that 'WE' would need to bring it against theirs and it was funny how they didnt mention this. It seems being top of the table gives you this over inflated respect. Any decent supporter would have been worried about today after our last few games.
