I think there will be a lot of pressure on the selection committee at Collingwood to reward performance and promote Charlie Dean to the team to replace Howe. Having Dean and Frampton in the same back line worries me a bit as they are both similar one dimensional players at this stage of their careers albeit that Frampton has done well as the full back allowing Moore to play further up the ground and Dean is still developing.
My choice of team for this week vs the Crows with Walker, Fogarty and Himmelberg playing in their forward line would be;
B:Maynard, Frampton, Dean
HB: Quaynor, Moore, Sidebottom
C:, Lipinski, Pendlebury, J.Daicos
HF: Shultz, McInnes, Richards
F: Hill, Cox, Hoskin-Elliot
R: Cameron, Crisp, N.Daicos
IC: Noble, Markov, Macrae, Sullivan
Sub: Allan

Felt this time last year round 9 or 10 we had a bank up of injuires. I think we will start to filter them back in in the say 2-3 weeks time.
Alot of holding over the coals i guess.
And good time to see some young talent as well. Kind of good to see.
We will be ok just a matter of the more expericned injured players to be held over the coals until they are all right to play again.
Still bullish on our match v crows mcg.
Keep wining while we shuffle on the go is the way we are doing things now a days. Doing it on the run.
Pies to win Saturday MCG say 67k by 21 points. |

In recent times the Crows have matched up very well against us, even when both teams have been at different ends of the ladder.
We’re getting much closer to our tipping point with injuries ( at least they aren’t long termers ) and this is an unforgiving competition that doesn’t lend itsself to teams staying up for months on end.
The Crows aren’t that good but what makes them unique is they have two of the most accurate key forwards in the comp ( Walker and Fogarty )
They just don’t need many touches in a game to still have a significant scoreboard impact. Howe will miss and in a game day strategy that will focus on cutting their key forwards supply, he’s a big loss.
Add to that, short turnarounds seem to be our kryptonite ( albeit 6 days is at least manageable) so for mine, all this adds up to a significant challenge for an undermanned team.
Fly promotes system over personnel and clearly our system is as good any other team going around. If the system gets us over the line this week, it will be a memorable victory with so many best 22 players out. |
The Crows have not beaten us since 2016, and since they entered the competition in 1991 their record is the worst against us |

I fear the Dean vs. Keane comparison won't make Pies fans happy. 
Sheesh... We put in all the devo work, and the oppo get all the rewards. |

Looks about right, Boot. Obviously Schultz comes in for HH and Dean in backline for Howe (Note: Probably one of the dumbest ideas ever to play Howe forward and not go with Ash against Weagles. As Malthouse would say “Never mess with form”. Howe was working back nicely into decent nick and was only giving away his customary one or two goals from clangers. Ash needed some confidence and was good enough to be selected for the Giants game but not that one?..seriously dumb move by us…probs trying to be a little too cute….anyway whatevs got the W….water under the bridge. So…
HH : Out (injured) Schultz : In
Howe : Out injured) Johnson : In
Bytel : Out (injured) Allan : In (Sub)
Mitchell, DeGoey, McReery rest up and heal for another week.

I remember that match well. Last time we lost by 100+ points.

Only one a chance to come back seems Harrison realistically
This could be our biggest test ever
Might be time for Rudeboy, Jezza, Donny, Pies2016, P4S to brush off the boats and find some form |

This is true:
https://afltables.com/afl/teams/collingwood/allgames_tm.html
However, the only results we need to analyse, are the match-ups from the last two seasons:

And IIRC, we've had to come from behind to win those three as well?

They also havent won at the 'G since 2016. Now granted they probably dont play there very often either, but these losing streaks come to an end at some stage (look at Port at Geelong last week...).
Raging favourite amongst tipsters and the bookies have us at $1.33. I think both of these factors are too bullish, especially given some of our injuries. However, I still think we shold be able to get the points, perhaps in another close one.

| Danger game. Collingwood cannot win this by more than 25 goals. |

I am happy to win by a point. They are a hard slog last week we ran around witches hat and ended up with no bench. Worrell is a huge out for them. They will be throwing everything at is at the start. We need to jump out the blocks and be in front at qtr and just wear them down. Good teams win ugly. |
