Anything short of a performance will leave me very pissed off, especially after last weeks effort against the scum

whatever we beat them by, it will be a record margin.

Tooves out.

One would expect Macaffer to get a run this week. We will be short a backman, so Buckley may come back in (even though he doesn't deserve it). Perhaps we should bring in Godsack instead.

That was only our record winning margin over North Melbourne.

Check out round 4 1979: Collingwood vs StKilda @ Victoria Park. 179 points I'm pretty sure...

Record winning margin was Fitzroy over Melbourne a few years before that.

essendon to knock off carlscum

A trifecta is first, second and third.

Geez, if the stoppage kings Sydney Swans can win by 70pts, you've got to think we can bring up a margin of 100pts plus.

Not with Toovey out we won't. I'm revising my tip - Pies by 5 points in a nail biter

let the HMAS Hubris dock at Southport, annihilate the enemy and make a speedy and safe return

Darren Jolly out ?

He was a no show for an interview on Sen at 4:30 pm , Host Francis Leech speculating that it may have to do with team selection.

jonesy86 · Post by **jonesy86** » Thu Jul 21, 2011 4:54 pm

OUT: Jolly, Wellingham, Toovey, Rounds

Good to see the Caf back! Not sure I'm 100% happy with those changes though, but trust the powers that be nonetheless. Go Pies!

Rounds is stiff. The changes are not surprising except Buckley. If he plays he can consider himself very very lucky.
