For those at the game, I'll be interested in hearing about Framptons reading of the play. If it gets down there...
Billy Frampton has already run 7km+ in the game. That’s bloody impressive for a big bloke.

Might sound negative but it's with respect to winning a granny. I think Cameron and Adam's need to be replaced.
Buon Giorno

Cox clearly the better tap ruckman.
Cameron needs to start clunking them.
Frampton comes out for Moore / Murphy, looks a touch off the pace.
Knocks to Checkers and IQ.

That’s about all I can knock so far. They have have there 10 minutes. Good to have to defend for a while.

Can’t ask for much more from a half of footy.

On the positives, JDG, Ginni, Checkers Mitchel all very good.
Pendles class. Adam’s has done some good things.
But mainly the pressure and ball movement!!! Bring on finals baby.. like now. I don’t want to risk more injuries.

With the way the game was tracking and our dominance it was inevitable that our backs would push up a bit too far and let them get out the back for a few cheapys.

I’ll take that at half time though. Exactly what we needed. Some people will never be pleased though. Can’t find anything wrong with any individuals so far. Happy with everyone.

I hope Dan McStay gets amongst it in the second half though. Got some massive multis going and at present he’s my only worry.

Adam's as well. It's clear the changes fly needs to make.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️

Essendon stopped being witches hats for the final 15 minutes and actually provided a level of pressure you can expect for 4 quarters against Melbourne.

To many dinky handballs from us that quarter.

Adam's has but even against this rabble he gives them opportunities. Mitchell the better option.

Certain players are playing for their spots, barring injuries & suspensions, so the pressure’s on.
WE WERE ROBBED, RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, RIGHT IN FRONT OF MEEE!

N.Y METS, N.Y GIANTS, PENRITH PANTHERS & HOBART HURRICANES FAN.

WE ALL LOOK GOOD AT TRAINING, IT'S THE MATCHES THAT COUNT!
