we started like millionaires it looked like the players thought by how much probably affected heath shaw as the ball did not go into demons forward line for the first 15 minutes.
We kicked 20 points if we kicked straight we win easy and boosts confidence through the whole team. To have that many scoring shots when meds, leon, leroy, fraser who all played upforward and only touched a few times makes you wonder if they were on what could have happened.
Dees played extra man in defence all day why would'nt our spare man push forward have jolly/fraser and our spare man be isolated in the f50 everyone clear out and be front and centre when ball goes in, was to crowded we did not play on quickly enough.

^ OR, going on a date with your mother in law. ? Actually, root canal dental work is sometimes preferable to watching the Pies play like that today, not so excruciating and painful.

My 3 Votes for Pies are:
- Our Goal Kicking was Pathetic and we be lucky to be Top 4 if we keep it up
- Toovey is Useless and Holding the Side Back with his Shocking Disposal and we beaten today
- We have been biten by the Injury Bug
- Presti is just about Finshed
- Good to see Dick played Well and Actually Kick Straight
- Steele and Pendles where very good
- Our Zone seems to not been working very well lately. Need to go back to Man on Mam
- Have a Tough Game coming up vs Swans
- Never Play Leroy "The Scrub" Brown ahead of Dawes AGAIN
- We where Reactive instead Acting 1st
- McCaffer is adding nothing to the side
- Got Smashed in the Ruck
- No Pressure when the Dees went Forward
3 Votes - Pendles
2 Votes - Dick
1 Vote - Steele
And if you think Tooves is useless, you better get another set of eyes u dipshit
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

I cannot understand how 38 touches, including 7 marks (some contested, plenty of tackles, can just go on being expected rsather than lauded. Guys, this guy is awesome and god forbid we ever lost him. Swan seriously was almost singlehandedly keeping us in the game for a while there. HE IS the best. I for one idolise the guy and HE was our best. And the reason we did not lose by a mile.

1st quarter I thought, by how much.... I needed a win by between 20 & 36 to collect the $450 jackpot in our tipping comp.
Once again our kicking for goal has cost us, the confidence that comes from a goal (ala Dicks enthusiasm) is immeasurable, 9.22 FFS! We left the door open and the d's gave it a shove!
Make no mistake, they will be a very, very good side in the next few years and should be considering the priority picks 'n shit they've got!
Happy to get away with 2 points!
Been costing me an absolute fortune on the punt these past few weeks but being the confident type i'm backing us to bounce back in a big way against our bitches Siderney, Have a look people, We're 3rd!!!!!!!!!!!

Need to compare apples with apples. As I understand it, The Old Swim Centre/Lexus/Wespac Centre has a high altitude room or simulator which mimicks the effects of high altitude training. So it is not simply a case of Arizona & nothing else.Pants wrote:Steve Moneghetti was asked about this high altitude training and how it does it lift your performance to another level, His reply ( and i think he should know a thing or 2 about endurance), that to notice any SLIGHT increase in performance you need to spend at least 8 weeks doing it!

The sports scientists at Collingwood are doing the measuring etc & testing. Monaghetti & Collingwoods sports scientists are both right because they are not comparing the same things. The question would have been better applied having the Sports Science people at Collingwood as well as Monaghetti answer the same questions.
