If we win this without Swan, Elliott, Reid, Brown, Cloke, Goldsack and Williams it will be the second coming.
Get back on top.

If we win this game, with half a team out, Bucks doesn't just have a plan he's a friggin genius.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Need repeat efforts from Blair, White and the others who are under the pump of late. Hoping they can back it up against real opposition.
Please coach, give them a light week on the track; no need to Hafey them at training when coming up against Suckwood and his umpire pets.
The run, carry and spread we saw return Saturday night, must be evident again, failing that we are dead in the water.
Also hope the trip to Adelaide takes its toll on geeelong this week.

Need to recall Brown/Reid, or both to bolster the backline against Dunderklumpen Hawkins and his tin-arse forwardline mates.
Bring Cloke in; if Lonergan wonders around the field without Cloke's jumper to hold, his brain might implode.
Even if simply to pull Lonergan out of our F50, to give Moore, White and perhaps Cox a better run at the ball. Henderson worries no one.

This is certainly do-able, and far from Mission Impossible.
But all players must buy-in for four hard quarters.
And the coach needs to get it right at selection table for a start.

Pies by 1 point, I got a good feeling about this one. The cats might be a bit over-confident and not expecting a rampaging magpie machine ready to shock the world. A 90 point loss wouldn't surprise though.

I doubt we will win, but i think the shared experience and unity is building in this unit, and Pendlebury looked fit yesterday for the first time in weeks. So we might create a boilover.

One of my theories is that Pendles is the master key to Collingwood. Whenever he is off, for instance in the 2010 GF mk I, we struggle to be anywhere near our best. I attribute yesterday's surprise result - and it was a surprise - to his being relatively free in his movements compared to recent weeks. In my head, it's Geelong by 30-odd. But at the odds, Pies by 12.

This one liner deserved so much more credit!

Well I have to say, the comments here amaze me, so good to see the good feeling fairy got a hold of you all. Bastard missed me. I bloody hate geeeeelong , despise their supporters, and I'm not looking forward to the scorelinethis week, I can't even begin to guess, if it were a movie I'm thinking Armaggedon. Some where deep down I'm praying for "the gridiron gang" but it might be more like "back field in motion!"

God help us. I think I might watch the first quarter of the 2010 prelim in the gym, it always revs me up! Might send a copy to the players!

I will say,that in the pre season game down Geelong,every commentator was wetting their pants about 'Danger"Who got a few early touches and had Sandy and the other wankers dribbling on,but a strange thing happened and whoever played on "Danger" gave him pantsing and we came from about 7 goals down and won pretty easily.No reason this can't happen again.If Reid,Brown and Witts come in,maybe even Williams and out Toovey Sinclair,we're NEVER going to lose by 10 goals,NEVER let a pussy cat "Come in dry"?? and we'll more than likely knock 'em off.I'm backing them at what ever odds they care to throw my way.

Correct weight mate. I'm just moseying along in the hope we can have a real red hot go, and if we can sit that ponce Danger right on his ego filled arse, that will be a decisive bonus. :P
