Not good at all. WC inaccuracy kept the game close but the game represented one of a top 8 versus bottom 8 team.

Finals start next week.

Yep, Groundhog day again.
Usual front-running players unsighted again, unless they are giving it up.

Well, that was disappointing. All I'm waiting for now is the Hiss & The Rolling Heads show.

Not a surprising result, as they are probably the best team going round at the moment, near full strength, and we were missing Elliott., Cloke, Adams at a ground that doesn;t suit us at all.

Keep fighting but plan for next year - Scharenberg, Moore, Marsh - bring them in and let's see what they've got.

What is it that happens within the four walls of the Collingwood footy club during the bye that poisons the rest of the season. 2015 is turning out much like 2014.

We had no winners. Skills and Descion Making was Disgusting. Forward line was Useless.

IF Eagles Kick Straight that would of won by 100pts.

Worst we played all year. Reminds me how we played late last season

Happy if Seedsman never plays senior football again
Lucky WCE cannot kick straight
Cannot blame the umpires

At least players tried
Did any possession of Seedsman go to a Collingwood player?

Disappointing but Cloke gone early, and fought had to stay in touch. So can't fault the effort.

Frustrating to see them take so many contested marks at crucial times. How many did Sinclair take?

Unfortunately, today was Whites time to stand up, but he failed miserably.

Seedsman is so far off his Anzac Day medal form.

Fas went missing, but not sure that delivery helped.

Levi will be better for the run.

Just lack that little bit of polish which is costing us big times at critical moments.

Finals are a long way off atm.

Another great match by Blair!!!!
Toovey and White need to go to the meatworks
Can any of our rucks take a grab.
Is that too much to ask????
Recruit Kennedy who does well with getting the ball.
But can he kick....nooooooo!
Well done Langdon and Marley both are champions.
And Bucks keep playing the conservative game style
I am sure not taking the game on will help one day.

Funny, that - check out the respective ladder positions.

Collingwood actually played reasonably competitively and the game plan held up well, considering that they had to cover the loss of Cloke, Adams and Elliott. Some of you have ridiculous expectations about what the team will do when its entire forward line gets a calf injury 5 minutes into the first quarter.

It was also great to see one or two of you getting in early to bag Sidebottom: it's always that little bit harder to bag him after the 37 disposal game.

Some thoughts...

Seedsman to go up onto the Mark McGough honour board.

Jesse White is the biggest tease I've ever seen, should be one of the best forwards going around but just can't manage it.

Ben Kennedy is a spud. A quick spud, but still a spud.

Toovey is surely coming to the end.

Levi looked good but faded, will need a few weeks but will probably never be out of the side again.

Damn we missed Adams.

Witts and Grundy shouldn't play together.

Varcoe is a gun, Crisp and De Goey are both going to be something special. What a trade period it turned out to be.

We need a genuine full forward who can mark and kick straight. Relying on De goey, Swan and Pendles doesn't cut it.
