Yeah, if we actually do have a good win we could be sitting 2nd and possibly 5th after the bye…with some of our guns coming back could be a perfect springboard for finals campaign….not an easy run home but get through it with a top 4 spot at the end and we’ll be match hardened and well positioned for a crack at 17!Jezza wrote:Regardless of the GWS-Port result, we'll be in the top 4 at the end of the round if we win today with some other sides having games in hand.
Massive opportunity to keep the pressure up and assert our credentials with the bye approaching and hopefully getting some experienced talent back after the bye.
Game Day. Pies v. Roos. Late changes, comments.

Two cents worth, if that :-
We will win by over 14 points
Larkey will kick less than five.
We will be looking forward to the week off and a fresh assault at the finals with a few regular starters returning to strengthen our squad.
We will have McStay back in time to shine in the finals.

I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm 
We should prepare ourselves for the probability that North will win the clearances and stoppages. That’s been their one wood for the last few weeks. Norths problem will come anytime we regain the ball in our defence and start the run and carry. They are easily the worse defence in the competition and that won’t be any different today. Collingwood don’t rely on winning clearances but they do rely on winning the ball back before the opposition score. If the defence remains solid and there’s no reason to think they won’t, the heavily favoured outcome will look after itself.
As I’m posting, Simpkin has been ruled out with a hamstring injury. He’s a huge loss for them.
