99 problems...and we'll get it done. No big forwards to slow us down in the rains, it's gonna be a hell for leather chaos-ball goal-fest, with three votes to Nick after he kicks 5+ goals from full forward!

Hopefully we finish the season on a high, and the likes of Allan and Richards have strong performances.

Winning 4 of the last 5 games of this season would keep enthusiasm levels high leading into 2025.

Winning 4 of the last 5 (and losing to the Swans by a kick) would only make me lament how woeful we were in that stretch to Bombers, Cats, Suns and Hawks...
It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

Having a competent umpire in a crucial game would have also helped a lot but that may be asking for too much 😗 Anyone who says that umpires don’t have any influence on the result or the season should watch and learn the realities that the outcome of that game produced instead of the “move on, nothing to see here “ crap from the AFL 😩 Still shitty about footy and the AFL after that incompetent display of pathetic umpiring 😖
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️

How good would a 15 goal win and Carlton 15 goal loss and dockers go down be? A nice sugar hit to make the 8 but not much more. In the end haven't deserved a finals spot so time to work on why not and dare I say it get better.
Still gunning for a win though and happy to have one last look at what Dean Richards McRae and Allan bring to the table. A big game for each is important to their future and that of the side. Smoke them again on a wet deck I say
