Petracca is worth 2-3 goals a game when we are playing well. Brayshaw brings hardness and skill and may be our best player. I think both players are not part of the problem. If anything, we need more players like them from the draft.

Viney is also untouchable!

Petracca and Brayshaw are impacting games but there are very few others. They remind me of how poor Scully and Trengove made some of our more senior players look when they were drafted. We should have kept Watts who loved our club. We must keep Oliver, Salem, May, Lever, Gawn and Lockhart. Most of the rest of the list could be looked at, at least the one’s out of contract at the very least.

Yes, Hipwood is a gun. However, we could have tried to build on that 10 point lead enough to make them doubt a little. Hipwood knew he could work his magic because we never tried to put the Lions away.

Have already sent my feelings about the team and the coaching to Mahoney/Goodwin. I suggest more of you do the same. It is the only way that the culture will change, if we apply pressure!

Maybe a few emails to Simon Goodwi and Josh Mahoney are required to show our disdain for what the coach and the team are serving up.

Recruiters? I am really fed up with the coach too!

Anyway we can ask Peter. [email protected]

I don't think we are allowed to use our FIRST ROUNDER this year. It may have to be a future first.

And Marty Hore’s Intercepts were excellent.

I thought Jones First Half was inspirational. He looked fit and firing. He broke tackles, negotiated traffic and got the ball moving forward for us. In the second half I thought Brayshaw and Viney stepped up. Tim Smith, Max Gawn, Jay Lockhart, Sam Frost and Steven May were all vital to our win.

Not worth the oxygen. Ed Langdon is one of the only players that will come to us for next year because we have put work into him. We have messed up our hopes with a big fish unless we can blitz the second half of the year!

Totally knee jerk trading Brayshaw, Viney or Petracca. I would suspect that Brayshaw has been injured this season and that is why he is not playing near his peak. Viney and McDonald are definitely injured and very limited right now.

Try Chris Fagan or Clarkson at the top!

No1 should be no 18!

Personally, a large number of Collingwood players looked fitter, faster and hungrier for the ball. They moved more often with purpose and we did not!

Was at the game. I had a great view of Tom McDonald. He hobbled all game and struggled to break into a run. I fear that he has been mismanaged and should be rested the rest of the season to fix a very obvious injury.

Today is the perfect day for Garlett to prove that he is a big game player. Regardless, we need a young aggressive forward in the draft. Someone, ready made if possible. We cannot trade for one, too expensive, won’t happen.

Think Oliver will play. Smoke and mirrors. Will be an unpleasant affair though win or lose because the Magpie Army are out in force today.

Am a Home and Away Member but still think it is unacceptable that Home Members have to buy a ticket to gain admission.

Yes. Sparrow. Sorry!

Next year Swallow may well get a regular position in the team, like Baker will this year.

What he shows is that we are much better off developing our own talent! No more trading for players who cost first or second round draft picks. Only Hawthorn Scully like deals please!

Who cares! We will get flogged. Our players have mentally checked out from this season already!

Sam Mitchell will probably end up as a senior coach very soon. Would not be surprised if he is not brought into Carlton. Stranger things have happened.
