I hope in the last 3 games we can at least play some attacking football. Defence can handle itself by being on a man. Bucks played attacking football and perhaps has been influenced too much by Micky M. Great in 2010 when other teams had not figured it out. Love Toovey & Blair who will always be Collingwood premiership players but their time has come and gone. Hate to say it but lets play like the Dogs for 3 weeks. All Class players in BK, Shazza, Moore, Seedsman and give the Big Yank a go.

Is your call for Cox to play based on watching him in the VFL?

I just like his tap work puts it into a magpies arms. We have not been winning centre clearances. Reminds me of Sandilands and geez he learned to mark and kick in a season. Witts spent most time in the ruck with the Yank up forward. Think we signed him for his height and that works best in the centre of the ground. Has been great prior to Witts going back and getting preference.
Cannot see going forward with Fridays team.

Cox is a Good Tap Ruckman but is utterly Clueless around the ground

Witts was BOG in the VFL. He was also one of the best last week.

I'm just going off the CFC website. Incidentally Dave, PK isn't even listed among the best 6 players.

BEST
Collingwood: Witts, Young, R.Pendlebury, Armstrong, White, Taylor

Better than the utter bullshit that you're spouting.
Buckley is a straight talker, not a Bill Shorten spin merchant/liar. He is courageously taking on on the right, not easiest path to success.

Cloke started like a gun and faded, Reidy second game blues, Pendles surprisingly fumbly.

Swan on fire, Moore and the other youngins did a great job.

800 games less experience, I'd be more disappointed to be a swans fan, they are old and not good enough.
Yep the first thing I did was to remove the Swans from flag consideration this year. They are not good enough.
A few of us are not surprised as this is exactly how a developing team plays, inconsistent football. That is why we picked them pre season to finish in the 9-12 bracket. Will continue to improve as a team.
Would not at all surprise me if we beat the Tigers next week.
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Hard to be fired up in a game when you are out of contention and the Players many of whom will be in self preservation mode. The Tigers are full of run and aggressive in their approach as they are in the finals and I expect a mauling. Anyone player who is carrying an injury should be rested and operated on. All future players should be getting a run as the cue is firmly in the rack.

We need the old smiling Assassin Corrie to come in and knock some skulls.
Known these days as "The Rouge of RedCliff" he's on the undercard to the Danny Green fight allegedly! :wink:
