Agree. Plus some of our inexperienced players are showing it today. Harrison, Sullivan in particular. I won’t bag a player in his first game. Lipinski gone missing. Noble fumbly. Moore awful. Maynard strangely subdued. Sidey average at best.

It’ll take a miracle to win this.

And since I don’t believe in miracles this loss will have a big impact on finals aspirations. I was hoping for a top 4 finish but this will put paid to that.

If we’re not within 25 points by 3QT, I think it’s over.

It might already be over, but I’m holding out a glimmer of hope.

I'm not bagging anyone before the game ends.

Things we need now.

1. An outlet marker. We dont have one right now.
2. An effectual half back. Ditto
3. Midfield. A close checking midfielder.
4. Frampton to the back-line.
5. Who is our sub this week? If its Reef get him into the game asap.
6. Young players worked on to build their self belief. On-field leadership is severely lacking.

But overall it looks like too many young players has finally caught up with us perhaps.

If we’re above Hawthorn in David’s form ladder this week, then the model is rubbish

Don’t know about you but I heard the fat lady singing midway through the 2nd quarter. Loud as hell
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️

McRae subbed. Ok great, midfield of sidey, macreery and crisp. Sorry. That’s not beating even the worst side in the comp. Easily.
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Don’t worry about the 4pts, I’d be concerned about % now.

I was wrong about the glimmer of hope McCreery provided. He’s a dud

We'd be losing this game anywhere. And the procession continues. So this is the new Collingwood is it? Things get tough and we just turn our toes up. Dock them ALL their pay this week. Not a cracker for anyone and Fly as well! I'm getting angry now! :twisted:
