Anyone bagging him for his last qtr can get f*****, he is a half back flanker playing on the best full forward in the league, did alright only conceding the 2 goals, 1 when he slipped over and the other on the run. Did a sensational job for the first 3 qtrs on Hammil
Whats the problem, surely no one expected us to win, the new inclusions went well, a few more changes and the added fitness of Didak and Fraser plus the imminent return of Richards and Davis and bringoing back Lonie to play wing and palying C2 where its fair for him, and hope Presti and Clem and Jonno ain't too bad and all of a sudden where are smoking
All I want this year is a week where we have to drop a palyer cause our list is full of available palyers.
I don't care what people like Dave etc say, look at who we had and look at their overall expereince and the fact they had to paly out of position, as far as I am concerened well done

Will not comment on McBurney, he isnt worth it
I'm not certain whether I can give an accurate reply or not.
yer s`pose cloke was ok, probably did enough to retain his spot, especialy if presti is hurt. Fraser was serviceable. Thought we looked dangerous when he and tarrant were in the forward 50, but we won more out of the centre when he went into the ruck. And tarks skills have just gone out the door. So has his aggression. He should follow woewoedins steps for sure. There is no doubt we lacked experience out there today. Woewoedin shouldve played.
There's more to life than footy.........just not much more.

Fraser !! What TF !! Fraser had a great day out didn't kick a bag but provided an option we haven't have for ages !! Tarks is a bit off and maybe needs to find some form. But $@%$$% I hate the kneejerk reactions to a loss we need to foster a winning culture and you get that from keeping a combination together.
Let all your troubles be forgot for we are Collingwood. We'll fight it out until the end we're Collingwood. So help me Jock.
Two pies and two beers thanks!!

Agree with you that Cloke was very good today.
Josh has just come back from a knee. He has only had a bit of a run at Willy for one game before this. With that in mind, Josh was pretty good today.
Fraser never provided a contest, he just stuck his arms in the air and made no attempt to mark and let them run it away for an easy goal countless times, Fraser was damn weak today
Started off well i thought in the first and probably should've been further in front. In the end, we clearly just got beat by a better side who quite simply, are more talented than us.
Was sitting in the Collingwood stand and noticed Josh limping after a few contests in the last quarter. Highly doubt if he was 100%.
Wasn't Rhycey good again today? Confidence is an amazing thing. Even took a great strong mark moving backwards with the flight of the ball. Really glad he's stickin it up em at the moment.
Good stuff Rhycey!!

Everything you said is true, our young kids did do well and we were not expected to win and we are so down on players its not funny. But im just assessing the match. Im not looking at who was in our who was out. In terms of the match, we were pathetic. We are not a bad side, and at full strength wouldve given a better performance. Youth and inexperience is a huge factor. However, that said, our performance today was not good. We are asking young players to do big roles like ruck and centre half forward and although they are trying hard, are loosing easily. But they are young and have a long way to go so its hard to judge. But the way we played today shows our season no longer has a leg to stand on. So im just going to saddle in now, let the young kids have a go, not expect much and pray for better fortune in 2006.

No, Josh didnt have a run at Willy, he came straight back, that is a damn joke. He should have gone back to Willy as he needs a couple of weeks to get back into the swing of things
