We clearly need another strong bodied tall in our side.
Hopefully we get Roughead and Krueger back soon. In the meantime please give 'Magic' Johnson a run for a few weeks as a marking forward. He kicked 4.3 in the ressies.

In a contest full of momentum shifts, Collingwood were unable to keep momentum in the final term to lose against Geelong by 13 points, after the Magpies had a lead of 37 points at the 29th minute of the third quarter, before relinquishing complete control of the game against the Cats. Collingwood peppered the goals for much of the first half without converting most of their opportunities at goal, which also contributed to the lack of scoreboard pressure that initially kept Geelong interested during the first two quarters. The third term saw the Magpies cash in with 9 majors for the quarter and build a lead that was almost unassailable, before the Cats overwhelmed the Woods with quick ball movement and superior goalkicking accuracy, which proved to be the difference in a high-scoring shootout on the night.
Collingwood won most of the key statistical categories from sources such as disposals by +36 (393 - 357), kicks were won by +7 (204 - 197), +29 for handballs, while contested possessions had an advantage of +23 (158 - 135), uncontested possessions had a margin of +34 (239 - 205) and intercept possessions had a differential of +7 (73 - 66). Hit-outs were won narrowly by +3 (34 - 31), clearances were up by +4 (41 - 37), with stoppage clearances won by +4 (26 - 22), while marks went Collingwood's way by +5 (80 - 75),uncontested marks were up by +9 (75 - 66), and +12 for Inside 50s (59 - 47). The only categories Geelong claimed were tackles by +4 (60 - 56), Contested Marks were won by +4 (9 - 5), while Marks Inside 50 proved hugely decisive with a differential of +13 (20 - 7). Centre clearances were all square (15 each), while Tackles Inside 50 were evenly shared (8 apiece).
Taylor Adams (30 disposals @ 63%, 220 metres gained, 13 contested possessions, 17 uncontested possessions, 10 kicks, 20 handballs, 4 marks, 3 tackles, 1 goal assist, 10 score involvements, 8 clearances, 3 centre clearances, 5 stoppage clearances & 4 Inside 50s) displayed his strengths with his contested ball work releasing teammates into space, which also commenced numerous scoring chains that did not always result in goals. Adams will be annoyed with himself for taking advantage of a free kick that was paid to Josh Daicos in the second term, and Adams decided to snap it off his left boot which hit the post. Adams needs to be smarter and wiser when taking advantage of free kicks by making sure of it.
Jack Crisp (24 disposals @ 71%, 494 metres gained, 6 contested possessions, 18 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 11 kicks, 13 handballs, 5 marks, 3 tackles, 1 goal assist, 2 score involvements & 8 Inside 50s) provided great drive through the midfield to give the forwards plenty of opportunities to contest or mark the ball, unfortunately none of the forward entries Crisp had did not give the team much value for the work he did through the midfield.
Patrick Lipinski (23 disposals @ 78%, 206 metres gained, 6 contested possessions, 17 uncontested possessions, 2 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 13 handballs, 4 marks, 4 tackles, 4 score involvements, 2 clearances, 4 Rebound 50s & 1 goal) accumulated his possessions nicely, but was not as effective nor influential as he previously had produced in his first two games.
Josh Daicos (21 disposals @ 76%, 317 metres gained, 7 contested possessions, 14 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 11 handballs, 3 marks, 4 score involvements, 2 Inside 50s & 1 goal) played his role solidly on the wing by giving team territory with his disposals, and bobbed up forward to crumb smartly for his only goal for the match.
Jordan De Goey (20 disposals @ 45%, 345 metres gained, 13 contested possessions, 7 uncontested possessions, 2 intercept possessions, 11 kicks, 9 handballs, 5 marks, 2 tackles, 10 score involvements, 4 clearances, 3 stoppage clearances, 2 Inside 50s & 1 goal) should've been the difference on the night had he kicked his goals in the opening term. De Goey started the game like a house on fire with 12 disposals but failed to finish his work where it counted most. Every chance that Collingwood wins the game if those goals get converted early. De Goey has been given a one-match suspension for his dangerous tackle on Patrick Dangerfield. Remains to be seen if the club will challenge the suspension on Monday morning.
Brodie Grundy (20 disposals @ 50%, 281 metres gained, 12 contested possessions, 8 uncontested possessions, 24 hit-outs, 11 kicks, 9 handballs, 8 tackles, 1 goal assist, 5 score involvements, 8 clearances, 4 centre clearances, 4 stoppage clearances & 5 Inside 50s) applied great effort with his work in ruck contests, impacted clearances and tackling pressure was very good. The only issue was, not many of his clearances were clean and effective. In short Grundy's numbers looked good, but his composure did not marry up with the contribution he had against Geelong's midfield.
Steele Sidebottom (19 disposals @ 68%, 426 metres gained, 3 contested possessions, 16 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 14 kicks, 5 handballs, 5 marks, 3 score involvements, 4 Inside 50s & 2 Rebound 50s) had a very similar game on the wing as Josh Daicos had on the opposite wing, by providing the team territory with kicking that was largely effective to the team's ball movement.
Nick Daicos (26 disposals @ 73%, 278 metres gained, 9 contested possessions, 17 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 13 kicks, 13 handballs, 4 marks, 2 tackles, 6 score involvements, 5 clearances, 2 centre clearances, 3 centre clearances, 2 Inside 50s & 1 goal) had an impact early with his first Collingwood goal being an exquisite kick from 45 metres in the opening term. From there, Nick was rotated from defence into the midfield for the first time this season, and proved he could win clearances from limited midfield minutes.
Isaac Quaynor (21 disposals @ 86%, 458 metres gained, 8 contested possessions, 13 uncontested possessions, 12 intercept possessions, 14 kicks, 7 handballs, 7 marks, 2 score involvements, 4 Inside 50s & 5 Rebound 50s) was the pick of Collingwood's defenders with a breathtaking display of intercept marks and penetrating kicks on the rebound which hit targets.
Scott Pendlebury (20 disposals @ 85%, 163 metres gained, 12 contested possessions, 8 uncontested possessions, 9 intercept possessions, 7 kicks, 13 handballs, 2 marks, 8 tackles, 1 goal assist, 5 score involvements, 2 clearances, 2 stoppage clearances, 2 Inside 50s & 2 Rebound 50s) was made to work for his possessions behind the ball, with Geelong reducing Pendlebury's ability to kick the ball and forcing him to handpass for the majority of the time, where Pendlebury was still able to hit his targets.
John Noble (18 disposals @ 78%, 357 metres gained, 17 uncontested possessions, 12 kicks, 6 handballs, 6 marks, 4 tackles, 3 score involvements & 3 Inside 50s) provided dash from the last line of defence all night, and looked to take the game on by kicking to advantage or to contests in the forward half that allowed the team to compete aerially for marks.
Jamie Elliott (26 disposals @ 50%, 281 metres gained, 14 contested possessions, 12 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 13 kicks, 13 handballs, 3 marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 5 tackles, 1 goal assist, 6 score involvements, 3 Inside 50s & 2 goals) had a highly prolific game as a high half-forward by accumulating possessions up the ground, before working back towards goal to boot two majors. Billy would be annoyed at his inability to snap a goal in the last quarter when the team needed it to be kicked. Geelong were able to score the last two goals to win the game after that behind from Elliott, which was the only score the Magpies had conjured for the quarter.
Will Hoskin-Elliott (15 disposals @ 60%, 195 metres gained, 7 contested possessions, 8 uncontested possessions, 8 kicks, 7 handballs, 7 marks, 2 tackles, 1 goal assist & 4 score involvements) won enough ball across half-forward from the marks he was able to take, but he was wasteful with his ball use and will need to correct that aspect next week.
Reef McInnes (14 disposals @ 71%, 284 metres gained, 2 contested possessions, 12 uncontested possessions, 7 kicks, 7 handballs, 5 marks, 2 tackles, 1 goal assist, 6 score involvements & 5 Inside 50s) had an impressive debut across half-forward by contributing to the team's ball movement, and looked lively whenever he won and gathered possession.
Darcy Cameron (13 disposals @ 77%, 119n metres gained, 8 contested possessions, 5 uncontested possessions, 2 intercept possessions, 9 hit-outs, 7 kicks, 6 handballs, 4 marks, 3 Contested Marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 4 score involvements, 3 clearances, 2 centre clearances, 2 Rebound 50s & 2 goals) started poorly, before a strong third quarter where he kicked both of his goals set his game up for the night. Cameron was also able to pinch-hit in the ruck and won a couple of centre clearances, plus a handful of ruck contests when Grundy was unavailable.
Collingwood's next game will be against West Coast on April 9 at Marvel Stadium. The challenge for Collingwood is to maintain their intensity, pressure and brand for four quarters, while looking to convert goals when they are dominating in general play. The Eagles have continuity and availability issues in their playing group, which the Magpies will look to exploit to their advantage.
Collingwood won most of the key statistical categories from sources such as disposals by +36 (393 - 357), kicks were won by +7 (204 - 197), +29 for handballs, while contested possessions had an advantage of +23 (158 - 135), uncontested possessions had a margin of +34 (239 - 205) and intercept possessions had a differential of +7 (73 - 66). Hit-outs were won narrowly by +3 (34 - 31), clearances were up by +4 (41 - 37), with stoppage clearances won by +4 (26 - 22), while marks went Collingwood's way by +5 (80 - 75),uncontested marks were up by +9 (75 - 66), and +12 for Inside 50s (59 - 47). The only categories Geelong claimed were tackles by +4 (60 - 56), Contested Marks were won by +4 (9 - 5), while Marks Inside 50 proved hugely decisive with a differential of +13 (20 - 7). Centre clearances were all square (15 each), while Tackles Inside 50 were evenly shared (8 apiece).

Adams will be annoyed with himself for taking advantage of a free kick that was paid to Josh Daicos in the second term, and Adams decided to snap it off his left boot which hit the post. Adams needs to be smarter and wiser when taking advantage of free kicks by making sure of it.

Josh Daicos (21 disposals @ 76%, 317 metres gained, 7 contested possessions, 14 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 11 handballs, 3 marks, 4 score involvements, 2 Inside 50s & 1 goal) played his role solidly on the wing by giving team territory with his disposals, and bobbed up forward to crumb smartly for his only goal for the match.

Nick Daicos (26 disposals @ 73%, 278 metres gained, 9 contested possessions, 17 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 13 kicks, 13 handballs, 4 marks, 2 tackles, 6 score involvements, 5 clearances, 2 centre clearances, 3 centre clearances, 2 Inside 50s & 1 goal) had an impact early with his first Collingwood goal being an exquisite kick from 45 metres in the opening term.

[quote="piedys"][quote="KenH"][quote="slangman"][quote="PyreneesPie"]Latest news is that JDG will be pinged a week for his dangerous tackle on Danger
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!
This is a good point I reckon. Through 2018/2019 we would come out and spank teams and then be able to throttle back a bit. I remember one game against port at marvel where we were up by 45 at q time, and ended up winning by 5-6 goals that some commentators called the perfect quarter. Probably the prelim against Tiges in 2018 was a bit like that too.Cam wrote:This is a worry because we have heard those lines before from Bucks.Magpietothemax wrote:^ This reflects pretty much what Fly said in his presser. He said that our gamestyle is now very taxing energy wise, and we need to learn how to manage our energy expenditure so that it can be sustained across 4 quarters. That means in between Plan A (maximum energy expenditure) we need Plan B ("economy gear") in order to cut a balance across 4 quarters.
It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

WTF
The media and whoever else are calling for Ginni to front the MRP for staging?
You have to be kidding me.
This is where Jeff Browne or whoever starts to call out this anti-Pies BS.
Selwood surely had to be rubbed out for having Ginni in a headlock, talk about double standards.
I am really starting to think I will lose interest in our game, if there is a platform or vendetta to protect certain players and clubs, whilst trying to make it difficult for others.
