Rocca 1.4
Tarrant 1.3

Says it all

POOR kicking at goal has cost us in the end

When will the board start asking MM the hard questions.

Why has he 2 years in a row turned out a side that is not match conditioned and had sub AFL skills ?

After being 0 and 2 or after being smashed by the Blues and being 0 and 3.

Wake up MM and start accepting the blame.

Carra....4:3 or maybe 4:4.

You are correct, kicking was woeful, but so was delivery to the forward line.

Another pat on the back to the defence though. Well done.

No he wont get the ass, but Williams, O'bree and Lonie should be dropped...and we need to employ Matthew Lloyd as a goalkicking coach. Good stuff, Caracella, Johnno, Wakes, Clem, Licca... good run off backline from Shaw...I'm struggling for more.

Absolutely disgraceful. Williams, Obree, Shaw & Lonie should all be told they will be playing at Willy for the rest of the season. Mind you, they werent the only ones. Our disposal is VFL seconds standard.

just got home from work, seen the scores, wannaa puke. No replay til 8.00 (fox footy). What in tarnations is happening guys. Same old problems. eg. no takling, not direct, poor delivery, goal kicking, lack of confidence, out coached, no depth. I know its only round two, but geeeeeeeeeez. Can anyone shed some light. And was there ANY ray of sunshine there today!!!!

Yes, Caracella, Clement & Johnston. Thats about it.

OK, season over. Um, We refuse to man up and we have very poor skills. MM has not learnt that we will not win with Obree in the midfield. Next week is MM most crucial game in 2 years.

I too havent seen the match but 10.15 to 12.9 tells part of the story.

Stats
Kicks Pies 231 Crows 182
Hanballs Pies 120 Crows 134
Marks Pies 116 Crows 81
Tackles Pies 42 Crows 39
Frees Pies 16 Crows 8

Just about led on everything but the scoreboard

I have finally worked out MM's game plan!!! Take a mark 40 metres in the clear, then stop & wait for most, if not all, of the oppositions players to run forward of you. Then you kick it to one of them. We're actually implementing his game plan perfectly!!!

Clement and Johnno (great), same 'ol story. Caracella, good news. Spose the usual "middle of the roaders", are still, just that. Very patchy and not stepping up as we'd like. I feel a long winter ahead. I've just stepped out, seen my own shadow, and returning back to my memories.....groundhog day!!!

sorry to say but these are not rays of sunshine . all these are already established (altho caracella is new to collingwood). the positives would be if someone new to the team showed REAL promise .
the next 3 years are going to be long and cold because we have no one coming up who is putting there hand up to be a star from our 21-24 age group (except johhno who has been improving . but star.. i dont know) and bucks burns wakelin are all 30 plus . rocca 27 and with his mobility and fitness can u see him being a factor in 3 years . clement 28 , licca 27 and will only get slower , woewoedin 28 and getting slower .
and none of last year or the year b4 recruits are getting anyone excited except rowe .
