First proper reality check of the season.
True Jezza.
Massive reality check,
We had huge outs, but bulldogs had several as well, and it exposes that our depth is nowhere near the necessary level of quality atm.
All started from the massacre in the midfield. We were utterly smashed there, and had no real capacity to stymie it.
Skill errors and decision making errors no doubt flowed from the tremendous pressure exerted on our team by the Bulldogs' avalanche of clearances.
Those who have questioned Grundy's value to our team should now hopefully open their eyes.
Dont agree with those who just want to blindly play all the kids.
Smashings will not in any way benefit us.
We need to scaffold the induction of the youngsters with experience and strong bodies as much as possible.
Loss of Madgen really made me sad
He has been a cog in our defence, and a solid back up when we needed him. I find the comments of those who celebrated his injury on the game thread as quite despicable.

Why?Are you happy with the state of our list?Where are the key position players,where are the young midfielders coming through?Our young players look awful.

Zero point in winning another game this season. Let’s see which of these kids can play. Personally I think we will be bottom 4 for the next 5. I don’t think crop of the 19 and 20 drafts are ANYWHERE near AFL standard aside from Henry who will be a player when he realises he can play the game.

IN hindsight, we should have thrown the kitchen sink a both Lynch and Cameron, or at least Ben Brown, but it is what it is, i guess, we never land a big fish now, really. sigh.

New coach hasn’t been at the club for one draft, hasn’t had a chance to delist players, this is the start of a rebuild, this is how it’s done. I’ve learnt one thing over these first few games, a lot of Collingwood supporters don’t have patience.

Pathetic! Fly won't find it as easy to put a positive spin on tonight's effort. And now the Umpire's dissent stuff! The game has completely lost its Mojo! The competitive passion has been sucked out of the game completely.

Incredible how he just keeps dipping in, no matter the state of the game. Same maximum effort for 100 plus minutes.

We can guarantee an era of flags in a few years by being woeful every week like Melbourne were a few years ago. Accumulate priority picks and tank for three years. Only way to get ahead in this contrived joke comp.

Look we are useless! Play dead for the rest of the year and get great draft picks. Face it we are a dud Club with no hope . Poorly coached and terrible players. Great to see Adam Treloar win the medal . True champion!
Clearly, you "love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for." (your tag, Pal). Your contempt for Our Pies is palpable.

Keep playing the kids find out who has potential

Calum it’s time to go. He tries he just has…..nothing sadly

The big gap to Anzac Day and then short gaps coupled with debilitating flu left us cold in the last quarter

The three quarter time gap wasn’t bad. . They got three gifts from the umpires, 2 the first quarter and then the touched one

Meh give the %$^%$ belief watch them fall

Next
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

The good news, we’re nearly halfway through the season.
The bad news, things are only gonna get worse from here on…

I absolutely loathe the bullflogs, God I wish the VFL merged them in 1989 when Oakley was President.


Fk them!

Not better, short sighted.
If the dogs had scrapped English when he was a kid and towled up by Grundy for an old statesmen in the list, he wouldn’t have surpassed Grundy in a few short seasons.
Not saying Begg has it (far to green to tell) but no gain in playing Cox.
