MY THOUGHTS:
The now annual ANZAC VFL clash sees Collingwood travel away to the deep salty hills of Melbourne. Their fans rave about Draper as an up and coming young ruck and the future after Bellchambers, so it will be great to see him and Lynch go head to head. Adding to the intrigue the two were taken at opposite ends of the 2016 rookie draft (Draper pick ASADA, Lynch pick 51 being the third last selection).
While it was pleasing to see we came out strong last week after a horror show in R2 ultimately we were unable to come away with the points in disappointing loss. It leaves us in a precarious position.
After a close first half we had a comfortable win (106-78) at our spiritual home in the corresponding fixture last year, however the less said about 2017 the better - it was a disaster (118-38). It will be a difficult game against an unbeaten opposition who have had two big wins to kick off their year (121 points vs Frankston; 94 points vs NM), but it's one we must win even at this early stage of the season.
