If we win the flag, JDG will be player of the finals and get himself a norm.

Okay, if we were to risk bringing Macrae on now, who would you sub off strategically? Pendles, Sidey or Mitchell?

Now that’s more like it.Are we playing that much better or is it because we’re playing a much,much weaker team than we did last week?I’d say it’s probably a combination of both.

Got the start some of us saw as a non negotiable against this undermanned rabble.

Now for 3 more quarters of foot on throat.

9 goals and counting. 20 goals must be our minimum now. 30 would be magnificent. Slaughter them Pies. Show no mercy!

We really need to keep pressing hard on our structures. This can be a great tune up as long as we don't liarise. Not suggesting we will, but we need to ensure a disciplined performance.

For those at the game, I'll be interested in hearing about Framptons reading of the play. If it gets down there...

Some complacency coming into our game. I wonder if they now want to play bruise free footy so they don’t get injured before the finals? I sense a drop off in controlling the game.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️
